One of the most helpful resources available should be support from your denomination. In the Southern Baptist Convention, we are supported by a variety of training events from local Associational training events, state-wide events, and training provided at the national conference centers, Ridgecrest, North Carolina and Glorietta, New Mexico. These events are all designed to equip workers in the local church to effectively minister to the pupils in their classrooms. These clinics and conferences form an excellent foundation for our own local church training events. Contact your local denominational representative for specific information.
The curriculum materials you use should also be backed up with training materials designed to help workers use them efficiently and effectively. Also, check with your curriculum vendor for offerings of training events provided by the publisher. We use LifeWay Christian Resources curriculum materials; many churches of various denominations have chosen this excellent line of quarterly-published material as well. [For information about LifeWay curriculum, a catalog, and an order form, call 1-800-458-2772 for the Customer Service Center of LifeWay Christian Resources.]
