What a fantastic day we had together! Our hearts are full! Thank you to everyone who came and made it such a great day. Here's a few photos taken on the day, some by our participants and some by Adam, who gave up his weekend to help out. A professional video is being edited but here's a wee taster of 'Created to Belong'

We are so thrilled to share with you a song that has been written especially for 'Created to Belong' by a very generous and gifted musician, Helen Stirling of King's Inverness. It is based on Psalm 100:3 - it's a beautiful and simple song, full of God's truth. Why not have a listen and start to learn it? We will be singing - and signing -it on May 23rd as part of our worship. Our huge thanks to Helen and equally talented Alastair, who helped finesse the details.

Another treat for you! Elaine Tait from Scripture Union Scotland is joining us and will be running a workshop. Elaine is the ASN Development Coordinator for SU Scotland. She is passionate about the truth that Jesus loves all of us just the way we are and loves helping people see that it is the little things that make a huge difference. Her workshop is an interactive exploration of the new RME resource for ASN Schools - "Who is Jesus?" A taster of the different activities that learners in secondary ASN schools can engage in. This resource can also be adapted for churches. Elaine, like our other workshop leaders will also have a stall in our Marketplace. Prospects Across Scotland has really appreciated partnering with Elaine delivering training together, so we're delighted she can join us.

We are delighted that we will joined by Alex, Michelle and Jessica of Godly Play Scotland. Godly Play is an approach to Christian education that promotes knowledge, respect, empathy and looks to support the needs of the whole person. There is depth and reflection in each Godly Play session, giving time and space to learn. It is multi-sensory, using visual, auditory and kinaesthetic approaches to learning.

It can be appreciated by people of all ages and abilities, engaging both head and heart. Our workshop leaders have experience of sharing sessions in schools, churches, care settings and even outdoors, with circles of children, adults, diverse disabilities and neurodivergence.

In these workshops they will share a Godly Play story and some wondering, then there will be time for some questions and answers.
