Effective Children's Ministry

Archive for November, 2009

Dick Gruber, cartoonist and great children’s communicator had made available a free downloadable cartoon worksheet for “Thanks Living”. Ideal for our friends in the US, this would still be useful  anywhere in the world.
Here is Dick’s blog.

I came across this beautiful and challenging video on Cameron Smith’s blog.

The method of presentation is striking.  How many of us can write backwards?!  The design and layout of the words and images is very creative. But the words and music are simple and clear. They drive deep with their message. Whether active in children’s ministry or not,  every one will find this video intriguing and challenging.

We have just created a small “mini-site” for Children’s ministry workers.

It has some simple ideas and free downloadable resources for Christmas. Ideas for presentations for the children to do, PowerPoint prentations with which to teach about Christmas, ieas for games, and loads more.

As time goes on we hope to build up a full resources site; this is just a taster! We’ll add posts here as more stuff gets uploaded.  Everything is free to download.

Here is the link to the Christmas resources mini-site.
