Faithful followers of Jesus live shalom by living in harmony with others and the world. We are called to live as generous creatures created by a generous God who shares responsibility with us for all creation ? to live stewardship. Older children (ages 7-11) express a need to belong to the faith community and to participate fully in its life. As they grow physically and intellectually, they want to contribute to the life of the church. Activities in this book assume that the children have at least beginning reading level capabilities. Their experiences of the practices of faith may be mostly through their participation in the life of a congregation. Practicing our faith is a lifelong process. When completed, this series will offer 24 practices in 10 different life settings.
