We are living in an uncertain time, not knowing what the next day will bring but having to continue to live our lives. But how can we continue to implement faith formation from home when our normal curriculum and activities are at church? Beth Hayes, Director of Congregational Ministries & Resources, has gathered a group of Moravian educators to share how they are working with parents and leaders during this time of sheltering in place. Additionally, we have curated some helpful resources on children’s faith formation during the COVID-19 pandemic.
