Godly Play Classes
Godly Play is a distinctive approach to Christian education in the church for children ages 5 to 12. Trinity has been using this program since 1999. In Godly Play, we attempt to follow the shape of worship through greeting, preparation, the Word, wonder, response, feasting, and dismissal. The goal of Godly Play is to teach children the art of using religious language, parable, sacred story, silence, and liturgical action, making them aware of the mystery of God's presence around them and in their lives.

Kindergarten-2nd Grades
Children will begin by hearing sacred stories in the fall, such as the Creation. In the winter, children will focus on both the Liturgical seasons (Advent, Christmas, Lent) as well as the guiding Parables. The classes will have season-specific projects during work time.

3rd-6th Grades
At this age level, the children will begin to hear stories about specific people in the Bible (Moses, Ruth, Samuel). Liturgical stories will include the prophets and saints. The use of the parables will lead them to both explore the Bible and work with the text. These upper elementary classes participate in special outreach projects such as the Faith Quilts Project and Heifer Project International. For more information on the Heifer Project, click here.
