Ask almost any clergy or educator what one of their biggest challenges in worship is likely
to be “coming up with ideas for including children in worship.” This book provides a whole
year’s worth of activities and ideas complete with artwork and visual aids. These sixty-four
outlines have been developed and used in an Anglican parish (Church of England) over
the last eight years by a professional educator, artist, and experienced children’s minister.
The worship outlines include simple children’s liturgies and a complete lesson or story
plan that harmonizes with the lectionary. Through fun ideas, children encounter a real
aspect of the Christian faith focused on a theme from each Sunday’s Gospel. Each outline
includes a variety of options, which make them appropriate for small and large groups
of children as well as mixed age groups. Illustrated throughout, the text and full-color
artwork are included on a CD ROM for downloading, printing, and copying.
