Core Skills for Children's Work: Developing and Extending Key Skills for Children's Ministry

This exciting new inter-denominational modular training scheme seeks to resource all those who work with children in the church, and provides part of the foundational training for children's leaders in the Methodist Church and United Reformed Church. The material is creative and interactive, making it highly accessible as one-off two-hour training programmes for children's leaders within the local church. Devised and developed by members of CGMC, the six stand-alone modules cover key areas of children's work: leadership skills; programme development; pastoral awareness; child development; spirituality and the Bible; children and community.

Core Skills for Children's Work is devised and developed by members of the Consultative Group on Ministry among Children (CGMC) under the direction of Steve Pearce, Children's Secretary, The Methodist Church, and Rosemary Johnston, Children's Advocate, United Reformed Church.
