Godly Play Core Training 

The Episcopal Diocese of San Diego is pleased to offer a Godly Play Core Training Retreat on May 30, 31, and June 1, 2025 at Christ Church Coronado. This retreat will allow congregations the opportunity to refresh their training and to bring new storytellers and door holders into the fold as they complete their program year and look forward toward Fall.

Throughout the retreat, participants will experience all aspects of the Godly Play method and begin to become fluent in the Godly Play core stories and fundamental practices. Additionally, Godly Play’s guiding Theology of Childhood is introduced, so participants become more deeply connected to their work. The circle of participants becomes very strong and trustworthy when this work is done in the closed environment of a several-day retreat, and participants enjoy spiritual renewal and lasting friendships.

Over the last several years, we have had participants from across the diocese. This year, we are hoping to further expand the circle and the connections that come from doing this deep work together.

Godly Play Core Training is $75 for members of the Episcopal Diocese of San Diego, and $355 for those outside of our diocese.

The times for each training day are below.
You must attend all three days of the training in order to receive a certificate of completion.
– Friday, May 30, 3 PM – 9 PM
– Saturday, May 31, 9 AM – 5:30 PM
– Sunday, June 1, 12 PM – 5:30 PM

REGISTRATION IS FULL FOR THIS TRAINING.
