Forums: Growing in Christ
A three-part forum series looks at our children's and youth programs.
St. Alban's has thriving children's and youth programs but many of us may not know much about what and how they're being taught. This three-part forum series fills the gap.
Sunday, February 3: Growing in Christ--Children
The Rev’d Emily Griffin shares an overview of Godly Play, the Montessori-based method of spiritual guidance we use with our children here. She will also offer suggestions for adapting it to other settings – home, adult spirituality groups, and so on. Emily has been an accredited Godly Play Trainer since 2007 and recently joined the Godly Play Foundation’s Board of Directors. Come and see what our children are learning and how you can help support them in their lives in Christ.
Sunday, February 9: Growing in Christ--Youth
The Rev'd Yoimel González Hernández will be accompanied by the Senior Youth Group. They will share how the Rite 13 and J2A classes are structured in our parish, as well as their personal experiences with activities like Grate Patrol and the youth pilgrimage. Bring your questions and come see what our youth think about our church.
Sunday, February 16: Growing in Christ--Youth Issues
Our series on the children's and youth programs at St. Alban's concludes with a discussion of how to engage in a healthy conversation with the youth of our parish. The Rev'd Yoimel González Hernández will share his experience working with youth in his home country, Cuba, as well as with the youth group here. Come and see how you can help support our youth in their journey of faith.
