Building a Playgroup Ministry

"Connecting Families with Jesus - Building a Playgroup ministry On Purpose" , by Yvette Wynne who ran a playgroup at Kingsway Community Church.

To order go to http://www.crsonline.com.au/

This book is a journal that is to be used with a resource DVD and a Guide that can be purchased separately.

Quote from the introduction:

" I see a future of Christian plygroups that will awaken a nation. I see mothers, children and fathers falling in love with Jesus for the very first time. A successful playgroup is not about how many women attend, how creative the craft, or tasty the morning tea. Its about how many women ar meeting Christ through you? Do you shine out his love and acceptance of them? Do you see women as God sees them? do you really get to know them, their hurts and pains? "

It requires you to take the people working with you through a 5 part small group process using the journal - with 6 daily readings each week individually. The leader being the guide and facilitator watching a small part of a DVD and discussion.
