Anne has been wondering about Godly Play since she first trained as a storyteller in 2005. She was accredited as a trainer in 2008. She marvels at the way children, particularly young boys, respond to Godly Play, opening themselves to their experience of God, finding language about and connection to a great mystery. She delights during training in watching adults open themselves to the possibilities for Christian nurture for children, themselves and for their congregations.

From wondering to leading and always wondering, Ruth enters the Godly Play circle as both practitioner (2006), Trainer (2011) and someone who is passionate about our biblical story. Ruth is committed to building the circle, both on-line and in person, strong enough to do the work we need to do! She invites you to come close to God through wondering, silence and playful story.
