Could you give me some ideas as how to organize and present a Sunday School Workshop for Adult teachers as well as adults students. Most material I find is catered to young people and children. Thanks

3) Samson and Delilah
When I started to teach childrens church. I know that, I had a Problem with the story of Samson and Deliah. How do you explain this story to children? After thinking about it and reading some books. Especially a Bible children's coloring book. It simply says that Samson was in Love with Deliah. But She didn't love him back. Hope this helps anyone new to teaching. Brenda

4) Lord's Prayer In Candles?
Sometime earlier this year I asked if anyone knew of a devotional that used various colored candles to explain the Lord's prayer. A person by the name of Sarah responded with what I believe is the devotional for which I search. However, the e-mail address she provided did not get to her--it was returned to me as non-deliverable.
Does anyone there know Sarah and, if so, what is her correct e-mail address?
Does anyone there know of the devotional for which I search? If so, please be in touch with me via e-mail at JeanGrippin@msn.com. Thank you and God bless.

6) Multi-aged Class

Look for a good multi age curriculum and purchase it. Every teacher needs a copy. That way you are not telling the same lesson week after week. If you do a search on Children's church curriculum you can find a lot of stuff.

7) Multi-aged Class
>I teach kids from 4 years old until they reach like junior high. >Does anyone have any ideals on lessons and activities that I could do.
I teach the same wide age groups and try to have a coloring sheet or drawing project for the younger ones and have the older ones look up verses and copy them after the lesson. Sometimes we all do the same drawing lesson – like trying several sketches similar to those in Good News for Modern Man to illustrate the story we heard or read together. I make crossword puzzles with questions from the story or missing words from the key Bible verses. I draw (or the kids copy) the puzzle on the board and the younger ones can fill in the answers as the older ones give the answers. Play pictionary, (have papers with words from the story) where the kids choose a paper with a word written on it and then draw what that word depicts on the board. We all work on memory verses, but shorten it for the younger ones. And we all sing together. Paper and crayons or pencils go a long way.

8) Connie G?
I found a note from Connie G stating that she had created series lessons on attitudes of the heart and if we wanted them to let her know. The problem is that there is no email address listed so I did not know where to send my email.

9) Children's Church Moment?
I would like to start a chidren's moment in my church. If you have any ideas send them to me.
--from SSTN: our church coordinates the pastor's message with a simplified child's view of the same message. The children are called forward at a designated time during the service and one of the pastors or Children's director will speak to the kids. They look forward to this time and it encourages parents to bring their kids to church. We also provide activity bags for them.
