Faith Map offers materials based on the scriptures for a full year. Each week features stories, discussion ideas, prayers and an activity sheet inspired by the day ’s readings.
It ’s written with enough detail to enable the leader/parent to share their faith with a group of children, without hours of preparation. There are separate stories for young ones and juniors, so that you can tailor your sessions to the needs of your group. There is also family take-home sheet for each week, encouraging children to take the message of the Gospel back into their homes.
Each session starts with an introduction to the theme; the Bible readings; response to scripture using a story (separate suggestions for different age groups); activity (again appropriate suggestions for different groups and tips for learning difficulties); the sessions ends with a prayer and share time and a singing a few songs.
The material can be used in both Catholic and Anglican traditions.
