Children 0-3
We have paid nursery staff who provide care during the 10:00 a.m. service on Sundays.
Parent’s are given a Nursery beeper
(it vibrates!) to take with them to worship so they can be easily reached if a
child needs attention.
Please call the Parish Office at 617-484-2228 to register your child.
Children Ages 3-12

Godly Play® is spoken here during the 10:00 worship service
for children ages 3-11.
Godly Play is a multi-sensory approach to telling Bible stories with
three-dimensional materials. In an environment of reverence and awe, children
are encouraged to experience and explore the mystery of God’s presence as they
encounter God’s word. Each Bible story is followed by a series of “wondering”
questions which allow children to enter into the story by connecting biblical
narrative with personal experience. The children then respond on an individual
basis by working with art materials or by retelling the story themselves.
Children join their parents for communion each Sunday.
Our volunteer teachers are trained by Co-Rector and Godly Play® Teacher Trainer,
the Rev. Cheryl V. Minor. In addition a number of them have become Accredited
Godly Play® Teachers by attending an 18 hour
training event. All Saints’ is known for its beautiful classrooms
and often hosts visitors and training events.
Please call the Parish Office at 617-484-2228 to register your child.
Godly Play® In Action

Father and Children’s Group
On the first Sunday of every month fathers and children of all ages meet for
lunch, learning, and fun after the 10:00 a.m. worship service. A variety of
creative activities each month include storytelling, role-playing, games, arts
and crafts and music. Children and fathers meet in the Bramhall Room, while
field outings are scheduled as weather permits. The events are scheduled for
around 90 minutes, and include refreshments for all participants. This is a
wonderful opportunity for children to spend quality time with their father and
friends. Everyone is welcome!
