As its foundation for faith formation for ages 4 through 12, Calvary uses Godly Play/GROW, an internationally recognized, Montessori-based program developed by an Episcopal priest.
Sunday morning, volunteer-led Godly Play classes follow the 9:00 a.m. worship service and are offered at 10:15 a.m. in the fall, winter, and spring. A special FUNdays program is held on Sunday mornings during the summer months.
Classes are located in the Atria-Education Wing on the second floor for ages four through sixth grade. Bible stories are introduced to younger children in childcare in the first-floor Orgill Room.
In a carefully designed environment, children learn to prepare themselves to hear and listen to God's voice through the presentation of sacred, Old and New Testament stories, parables, and liturgical lessons. Godly Play is devoted to awakening children to their relationship with the Creator, and to helping them grow in their relationship to God and others.
Older children have the opportunity to deepen their spiritual life and relationship to God as they more fully explore Christian beliefs, what it means to be an Episcopalian and how the Church functions. As GROW participants, (God’s Representatives in Our World), there is more of an emphasis on experiencing the work of community and learning where he or she fits into the whole family of God as a participating member.
Godly Play/GROW is the foundation for Rite-13 and Journey to Adulthood programs for older youth. For more information about Godly Play/GROW, contact Judy Nocifora.
