Flexible session plans are ideal for both one-on-one conversations with parents or meetings that include several families together.

Allow this simple prayer guide and journal to give you the motivation and tools you need to make praying for your godchild a priority this year-and always. This beautifully simple prayer journal contains - 52 unique special intentions for your godchild(ren), one on each page - Scripture verses and quotes to reflect on - Space for writing specific intentions and spiritual bouquets you want to offer for your godchild(ren) - Recommendations for how to use the journal and prayer ideas A single journal can be used to pray for all of your godchildren or multiple can be purchased so you can devote one journal for each godchild. It is also designed to be gifted to the godchild or his/her parents, if the godparent chooses to, or it can remain a private prayer diary and accountability tool for the godparent.

When Anglican priest Jenny Paddison became a mother, there were numerous activities for new parents and their babies on offer: baby yoga, baby massage, baby swimming - but nothing from the church. In response, she created this five session programme that connects with the immense sense of wonder and joy that new parents experience and provides spiritual nurture from the outset, recognising the innate capacity for spirituality with which we are born. Starting Rite is designed specifically for babies up to a year old and their parents. It provides a complete practical companion to offering the programme locally, including story scripts, simple songs, ideas for multi-sensory play, as well as lists of equipment needed and how to create a welcoming atmosphere. It explores Christian themes though activities like peek-a-boo, blowing bubbles and splashing in water. Starting Rite enables local churches to offer a welcome to all new parents, and can also be used as a baptism preparation course.
