Department of Christian Education announces new resources

DCE

The Department of Christian Education of the Orthodox Church in America recently made available three activities for the approaching Great Feast of Pentecost.

The activities are designed for grades four through six, seven and eight, and nine through twelve.  They are based on events and experiences recorded in the Acts of the Apostles, which relates the story of the early years of the Church during and after Pentecost.

The activities also relate stories of saints, as well as more contemporary Orthodox Christians, to the lives of familiar figures in Acts, such as Saints Peter and Paul.

All three sets of activities, with instructions and suggestions for the teacher, may be accessed here.
