Godly Play
Sundays during the 9am service
​
St. David’s uses the Godly Play curriculum. Godly Play is a Montessori-based, agenda-free experience to help children explore their own innate spirituality and questions about God. Creativity and fun are always a factor!  Our Godly Play classroom is a great place to be on Sunday mornings.

Historically, Sunday school has begun in church every Sunday. Children began their worship day with their families and the main congregation and then leave with their teachers for a Godly Play lesson.  They have re-joined their families for Eucharist and the rest of the service.  .

A few useful documents for volunteers and parents:

​Celebrating children at Saint David of Wales
To the caretakers of our youngest members:
  • Relax! God put the wiggles in children; don’t feel you have to suppress it here.
  • Feel free to sit towards the front where it’s easier for little ones to see and hear.
  • Sing the hymns, pray and respond. Children learn liturgical behavior from you.
  • If you need to leave Mass with your child, feel free to do so, but please come back.
  • Remember! The way we welcome children in church directly affects the way they responds to Church, to God, and to Christ. Let them know that they are at home in this Liturgical gathering.
  • Please let us know how we can become more welcoming to your children.
