In the Word: Connecting Home and School (All; esp. 4-8)

It starts at the home visit – you talk with parents about the importance of worshiping together as a family and other activities to keep their children grounded in the Word. What comes next? How do we continue to connect school learning in the light of God’s Word with spiritual growth in the home? Participants will explore tools that are already built into the religion curriculum, take home materials to help families connect with the Word in new ways, and share ideas that are working for them.
