JOHN ROBERTO TRAINING

Recently Grow Ministries and the Uniting Church combined forces and held an exciting training opportunity with John Roberto. John presented in Melbourne and Adelaide and it was all about 'REIMAGINING FAITH FORMATION IN THE 21ST CENTURY'.

John walked us through the changes that are occuring in our world and helped us to look at new and innovative ways to reach our communities. 

He showed us that as a church we need to offer a wide range of diverse faith formation experiences, programs, activities and resources to match people's diverse needs and tailored to their busy lives.

For 3 days we listened and learned, we were then given an opportunity to put our learning into practice by creating our own websites.We found that the possibilities are endless.....

Written by Detlev Vosgerau    $6.00 (or 10+ $5 each)

Many members in our churches today feel a deep hurt that their grandchildren do not have faith in Jesus and have a deep desire to share their faith more effectively with their grandchildren. This is a study guide to support grandparents in passing on their faith to their grandchildren.
