AUTHOR

Brown, Carolyn C.

SUMMARY

 Carolyn Brown has done it again! As with all of her books, Brown writes clearly and helpfully, with conviction and passion for what to share and how to share one's faith with children. Sharing the Easter Faith with Children is theologically sound, biblically focused, educationally on target, and developmentally appropriate. It should be required reading for every parent, educator, and pastor who wants to communicate and celebrate the Easter faith with children. Brown packs a lot of practical suggestions, insights, and activities into this very readable resource.

In many congregations children are featured in palm parades on Palm Sunday, but they are not specifically planned for at other Holy Week services. When schools schedule an Easter break, many families go away and thus unintentionally bypass the whole Easter message for years. This book explores what the Easter message can mean to children as they grow up. The author helps congregations and families share the Easter message with their children and include the children meaningfully in Lent, Holy Week and Easter observances.   Included are materials for children from birth (in the church nursery) to age 12.   Also included are reproducible pages to create a booklet for parents.   The first section of the book describes the particular parts of the Easter faith that are important to children at different ages and comments on the biblical Easter texts from a child ' s point of view. The second part of the book works through the Lenten season, describing ways congregations can include children and providing program and worship plans, including:   *Lenten disciplines for children and their families *Ash Wednesday *Celebrating Palm Sunday or looking aheBrown, Carolyn C. is the author of 'Sharing the Easter Faith With Children Helping Children Observe Lent And Celebrate Easter', published 2006 under ISBN 9780687344246 and ISBN 0687344247.
