 Creating Sparks is the diocese’s annual training event for everyone who has an interest in children’s work in their parish including children’s leaders; clergy; occasional helpers or prayerful supporters - and it will all take place on Saturday May 12.

Martyn Payne from Barnabas for Churches (BRF) will be leading our opening session with a distinctly Olympic theme. Author of many books and responsible for much of the excellent free material on the Barnabas website, Martyn has a wealth of ideas for helping children and leaders to engage with God’s word.

There is a wide range of workshops on offer, for details and to download a booking form please visit the website Creating Sparks

Saturday May 12 from 10am until 3.30pm at Holy Trinity Junior School, Guildford, cost £10.

For more details contact Alison Hendy, Diocesan Children’s Work Adviser alison.hendy@cofeguildford.org.uk or telephone 01483 484910
