So we have just launched our new intergenerational Sunday morning service called 'Together', which will be our normal pattern of worship every Sunday for at least the next year! So far the numbers have been 130-150, so a drop from our usual numbers…

I'm part of the core team that heads up the new Children's Ministry Network (Scotland), a new forum to help and support children's workers, leaders and pastors in their ministry to and with children. There is also a local Youth Workers forum in our area which overlaps children's and youth work - predominantly schools work.

Training of volunteer leaders and children's workers. I was an HRD professional before going in to church ministry so it's an area of my work that I really enjoy. Co-wrote the Church of Scotland's Child Friendly Church initiative, a 6-12 month consultation and reflection exercise and pack to help churches think through 5 key areas of work with and for children. So often lead seminars and training days to help churches become more 'Child Friendly'!

Hi Lorraine - Thanks for adding me as your friend. I'm wondering whether you could use Bible Alive in your work. See www.bible alive.info. Bible Alive was born and brought up in East Kilbride and moved to Pitlochry a year ago. We still train BA Activators in Motherwell.
Blessings,
janexx
