Plan to attend this
groundbreaking conference!

Spirituality and Children
A parent wonders how to nourish a child’s spirituality; a teacher ponders how to draw out the inner life of spirit in a classroom; a researcher hears children ask profound questions, express compassion and offer uncanny wisdom.

How can we nurture the spirituality of our children and youth? What is their spiritual world really like? What are the tools and special skills that are required to develop and enhance our children’s spiritual life?

Plan to attend this groundbreaking conference – bringing together world-renowned scholars, researchers, teachers, religious educators, counselors, community leaders, parents, grandparents and others interested in exploring the remarkable richness of children’s spiritual life.

Workshops Include:

  • Educating the Whole Child
  • Innovative Spiritual and Religious Curriculum
  • Research and Theory
  • Intuitive and Imaginative Development
  • Spiritual Parenting, Counseling, and Community
