Children & Youth Worker Training

 

We believe passionately that teaching the Bible to children and young people should be an essential priority in every church. You probably agree, otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this!

If you’re involved in such ministry, wouldn’t you love the opportunity to spend some time looking at the way you work and how you might improve your skills with a group of enthusiastic people who are keen to learn together? We will have the advantage of a ‘cross-pollenisation’ of experience and ideas by having people attend from many churches. This is bound to lead to a very stimulating environment for growth and learning.

We will be using professional DVD and video resources and this will be supported by our own experienced tutors. The training will be enjoyable and imaginative, with plenty of opportunity to see the principles demonstrated.

You can be sure that by the end of this course your children’s meeting or youth group will be feeling the benefit of you having completed it. (Note to those who attended the course with this title in 2003-04: the course content is significantly different, so joining again will certainly be helpful, stimulating and refreshing!)
