Godly Play Circle – St Andrews – 1st March 1pm

Godly Play Circles are a chance to catch up with other Godly Players, maybe to borrow some story materials, eat some cake, and definitely listen to and wonder about a story together.

Everyone is welcome, whether you have been trained in Godly Play or you are new to it and wondering what it's all about. There's no need to book and there's no charge....
