Jesus and Me ANNOUNCING NEW PROGRAM FOR K-1 Volunteers Needed!

CEO Jason Noland presented the initial outline for a new program called Jesus and Me to the P.R.A.Y. Board of Directors at their Annual Meeting September 21, 2018 . Designed for kindergarteners and first graders, this new program will introduce Jesus as teacher, friend, healer, and storyteller - someone young children can relate to and understand. As Jason explained, “This is a new venture for P.R.A.Y. We want a program that will fit seamlessly with our current series, and yet stand apart and usher in a new strategy moving forward.” Jesus and Me will model a new cooperative writing process inviting national denominations to invest in the P.R.A.Y. curriculum and engage volunteers in producing this new piece. P.R.A.Y. is looking for experienced writers to create lessons, and also for reviewers to provide feedback. This cooperative writing model will be used not only for Jesus and Me , but also for future revisions of current curriculum. To help oversee this project, P.R.A.Y. will be working with Rev. Patrice Rosner who will serve as Project Editor coordinating the team of writers, assembling the lessons, and ultimately producing the final manuscripts for the Jesus and Me Student Workbook, Counselor Manual, and Adult Mentor Workbook. Rev. Rosner is an ordained minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and has years of experience in Christian Education and curriculum development. Read her bio here .
