New assembly ideas book published
Care for the World by Chris Stafford £16.99 Kevin Mayhew
ISBN: 978 1 84417 978 7
Rev Chris Stafford is vicar at Croft with Southworth Christ Church and Newchurch parishes in the diocese of Liverpool. He has previously written Off The Peg assembly books and his experience with working with primary school children has enabled him to create even more ideas to share in his latest Care for the World book.
Combining facts, faith and fun, Care for the World provides an excellent resource for use throughout the school year. The collection is split into three sections for ease of use, covering:
- Times and seasons: Harvest, Christmas and Easter
- Caring for God’s world: local and wider environmental matters
- Issues: including relationships, community and responsible citizenship in a worldwide context
Chris Stafford’s style of writing inspires enthusiasm and equips the assembly leader with everything needed to deliver an interactive, thought-provoking, response-inspired session. His science background allows Chris to share exciting experiments as visual aids with his assembly themes and as a Beaver Scout Leader I can’t wait to explore this book in lots of ways with young children too. Like Chris’s other books, Care for the World can easily be adapted for use in all-age worship, mid-week clubs, and Sunday groups.
