Godly Play is a Montessori based curriculum that uses a multi-sensory approach to telling Bible stories with three-dimensional materials – wooden figures, fabric, blocks, sand. The goal of Godly Playis to help children to use religious language to know God and find direction in their lives while they are still young. The Godly Play classroom is a place for children to be themselves; to come closer to the mystery of God’s presence; to learn the language of Christian people; to form community and take care of one another. Sacred stories, parables, symbols, and liturgical actions are invitations to enter into the work of discovering God. Godly Play was developed and has been classroom tested since 1972 by Episcopal priest, author, and teacher Jerome W. Berryman.
At GodlyPlay you can watch a lovely and sacred introduction to Godly Play.

Medicaid Re-enrollment
If your ministry serves Medicaid/PeachCare for Kids, the Dept. of Human Services has a message and materials for you.
-
- Redetermination began in April 2023. Based on changes in federal law, the State of Georgia must complete redeterminations up to May 2024. We want to ensure current Medicaid and PeachCare for Kids® members are still eligible for coverage.
-
- During redetermination, the State of Georgia will collect and verify member information, including contact and income details as well as other requested information and documents that will be used to determine member eligibility. Not everyone will go through this process at the same time. In fact, it will take about 14 months to reach everyone.
-
- Members can visit gateway.ga.gov to view their redetermination date and to update their contact information today so they can stay informed about the status of their coverage.
-
- Members who need help can visit their local Division of Family & Children Services office for support. To find the location and business hours for local offices, visit: dfcs.ga.gov/location
-
- For more information on Medicaid redetermination, we are including a partner toolkit with resources in multiple languages, please visit “Stay Informed. Stay Covered.”
