E. QUESTIONS ABOUT TRAINING
1. How can I help new teachers at our church
understand GraceLink?
- Show them
"GraceLink Training," available from AdventSource on
video or CD-ROM. A participant guide accompanies this video.
Be sure to stop the video as indicated and do the activities
described in the guide. CAUTION: Read over the participant
guide ahead. Do the training for parents too. Help them
understand what is going on.
- Take advantage of all the
training materials on www.childmin.com.
Sign up for the
CHILDREN'S LEADER newsletter and stay abreast of the
news.
2. Are there training events
we can attend?
News of upcoming
North American Division conventions is posted online.
Flyers about North American Division or union training events
are mailed to your church office. Also watch for news about
training events offered by your local conference. Request
the office secretary to forward such materials to you or to
post them on the church bulletin board.
3. What if we cannot get to a convention?
The North American Division has developed a
certification program for training of teachers and leaders.
To get a certification brochure and a self-study guide, contact
your local conference Children's Ministries department, call
AdventSource at 800-328-0525, or click the link above. One
helpful book for teaching children today is
Children's Ministries: Ideas and Techniques that Work
(AdventSource).
