Request for Godly Play materials
St. Christopher's, Spartanburg will be using the Godly Play curriculum this year and need your help with the story pieces. We have the curriculum, experienced teachers but need to make the investment in the stories over a period of time.
In the mean time, if your church has some of the pieces and are not using them this year, we would love to borrow them. Consider them in good hands. They will be in the hands of experienced teachers and young children who yearn to hear the stories of God's activity in the world. Please contact Raiford Collins, 803.603.1636, if you can help.
Time to update those mailing lists!
All churches will have received a letter from Trevett's mailing service asking for
current member rosters for use in updating the Crosswalk mailing
list. This is a legitimate request! Please do send member lists in any
format you have them to Trevett's, 6065 Saint Andrews Rd, Columbia, SC
29212, mail@trevetts.com.Contact Lynne Trevett with
questions: 803.781.3150. Every Upper SC household should receive Crosswalk!
And
every computer-using Episcopalian
in our diocese should receive this e-mail newsletter. Please send member
e-mail addresses in any format you have them to Bethany Human
(803.771.7800, ext. 19) at Diocesan House. N either your Communications
Office nor the folks at Trevett's will share addresses with any third
party. We promise!
