The representatives of the Commission for Educational Ministries (Susan Dickerman, Associate Conference Minister; Elsa Marshall, Commissioned Minister of Christian Education; Kris LoFrumento, Program Coordinator for Adult Ministry; Martha Cook, Director of the Resource Center; and Ms. Corey Lincoln, Chair) contribute to this monthly newsletter to help Christian educators and youth ministers with their faith formation programs.
Some topics that have been addressed in past issues include:
- How are the learners engaged with the congregation as their extended family of faith?
- How do we, as a congregation, help the children and youth fully participate in the whole life of the church (including its leadership) as they are able?
- How are we equipping our children and youth with the language, practices, traditions, rituals, music to participate in the worshipping life of the church community?
- How are our children and youth experiencing the Christian Scriptures and how are we providing opportunities for them to imagine and realize that the stories of the bible are intertwined with their personal stories?
- How is the learning environment reflective that this is a “special place” a place where we gather to praise and worship God?
