Easter
Teaching ResourceYour church is encouraged to invite local schools to visit during the lead up to Easter to take part in workshops (craft, drama etc) exploring the Easter story, using a resource created jointly by London Diocese and CMS.
The modern representation of the Easter story comes in photographic form, made by young people in London with photographer Dennis Morris.
"The aim is to help young people engage with the Easter story and make connections with their own lives," explains the Rev Anita Matthews from the CMS Youth and Children's team. "We hope that it will resource many people in telling the Easter story and exploring what it means in a fresh and creative way."
The resource is highly flexible and can be used in various ways: workshops and assemblies, stand-alone, used as part or the whole package. It's adaptable for use in schools, or in churches (all-age worship, young people’s groups).
We can offer you all the resources (apart from the artefacts boxes, which are very easy for schools or churches to make up for themselves - see the pack for details) for FREE in the form of downloads from the CMS website. Alternatively you can purchase from the CMS shop for £8 + p&p.
The project acknowleges generous support from the Westhill Foundation.
