August 1, 2025 | Godly Play Training Weekend

Church of the Apostles
7159 McIntyre St, Fairhope, AL 36532
Join us Aug 1-Aug 3 for a special Godly Play weekend on the campus of Church of the Apostles (COTA). COTA has been using Godly Play since it began as a church plant 25 years ago and now has five beautifully appointed Godly Play classrooms, ages PK-6th grade. During the weekend, we will offer a rich formational opportunity for those wishing to experience Godly Play for the first time or those simply wanting to go deeper in their practice. Over three days, participants will experience all aspects of the Godly Play method and begin to become fluent in the Godly Play core stories and fundamental practices. They will also learn about the uniqueness of children's ministry and why it is critical to one's faith development.

Cost is $350 with 50% discount for Gulf Atlantic Diocese and Church of Apostles members. Scholarships are also available through the Church of Apostles.

As part of preparing for the training, we encourage you to read Teaching Godly Play: How to Mentor the Spiritual Development of Children by Jerome Berryman. Upon registration, directions to COTA and lodging options will be emailed to participants.
