Our desire is to serve the church by providing practical training for children’s
workers. Workshops are conducted by experienced children’s workers with Bible
College training and can be arranged at venues around the country. We currently
have two courses we can offer in addition to our
Puppet Workshops and help in running Bible Clubs.

In Step with the Master Teacher

course is designed to help you disciple the children in your church the way that
Jesus made disciples - by modelling God’s truth, building relationships and
teaching for a response.

How much do they cost?
We charge £10 per person for a day's
workshop.
Our charges are flexible and group rates can be offered.
If you would like to
arrange a training workshop for your church, please contact us.
We are joining over
fifty other organisations and ministries supporting the 2012
Hand-in-Hand conference, wanting to help train your team and resource
your children's and family ministries.
Whether you have been involved in these areas of
ministry for years or are just starting as a volunteer, then from 4pm on Friday
3rdFebruary to 3pm on Sunday 5th February you’ll find seminars, workshops,
ministry showcases , exhibiting organisations and resources that are helpful to
you. There will also be time to worship, pray and study the Bible together –
sending you home resourced, refreshed and reinvigorated for your work with
children and families.
The programme will include
plenary and optional sessions that focus on how we can make the most of the
opportunities that major sporting events provide for churches to engage with
their community. There will also be a stream of Messy Church sessions
throughout the weekend so, if you already run a Messy Church and want fresh
ideas or if you are thinking about Messy Church as a possible new initiative for
your church, you can choose those options. And, to encourage you to bring your
junior leaders along, there is a half-price ticket for under 21s and some
sessions aimed particularly at them.
For more information and to book your place at
Hand-in-Hand 2012, visit www.familyministry.co.uk/conferences.
We look forward to seeing you in Eastbourne next February.
