Approaching Advent

In slightly more than two weeks, the season of Advent begins.  As we wait for the gift of God’s love entering the world, we want to use the next several weeks to share reviews, educational events and some favorite Christmas books by some of our readers and regular writers.

Our first gift to you is an intergenerational educational and worship event prepared by students Cyndi Beerbower and Robin Crawford.  It is based on Maya Angelou’s beautiful book Amazing Peace.  Click HERE to open the pdf file that contains the plans for the session.

Literature Circle Curriculum: Same Kind of Different As Me

This is the second in a series of posts that offer lesson plans for literature circles in the church.  Donna Fair uses Same Kind of Different as Me as the focus for a six-week intergenerational and family unit that can be used in a variety of settings.  Click on the link below to download Donna’s plan.

As always, you are welcome to use the resources offered here, but please give credit for the work that you use!
