Bible Heroes! A once a month children's program for small churches

Give your children’s work an exciting boost without exhausting your children’s workers. With the 11 ready-made, ready-to-go activity programmes for the smaller Sunday school – where ages might range from 3 to 11, ‘Bible Heroes’ gives you a years worth of off-the-peg monthly ‘specials’. Here you’ll find everything you need for meeting the needs of a wide age and ability range in one, all inclusive programme. Based around the lives of well-known and less familiar Old and New Testament Bible heroes, the 11 sessions are tailor-made for children's work in small churches and rural communities. Building on the success of BRF’s ‘Not Sunday, Not School’ series the resourceful book even includes all the themed activities you need for a five-session holiday club – so you can give you small Sunday school all the fun and fellowship usually available only to big churches and in city communities. Each programme is flexible with up to two hours of child friendly practical activities including storytelling, games, art and craft, drama, discussions, music, cookery and Bible teaching, plus ideas for an act of worship following each workshop session. These activities are designed to explore the stories of God working through people in the Bible, throughout history and looking at how the children too might become heroes for God right where they live. Supporting and encouraging you and your children’s workers, the whole programme is introduced with helpful hints on how to run an effective children's programme outside of Sunday worship; including information on planning and preparation, using the Bible, creative and reflective storytelling and a concluding act of worship.
