Welcome To the Lord's Table activity book - Softcover

A task-based activity book designed to help children make a personal record of his or her progress through the Welcome to the Lord's Table course. The book can then be offered at the first Holy Communion as a sign that the child belongs to God and is part of his family.

Margaret Withers took up her role as the Archbishop's Officer for Evangelism among Children in June 2001. Formerly Children's Work Adviser for the Diocese of Rochester, she taught in several Inner London schools and for the Open University before becoming a Diocesan Children's Adviser in 1989. During her years as a Diocesan Adviser, she became heavily involved in providing training and support for voluntary children's leaders in parishes. In 1996, while Children's Officer for the diocese of Chelmsford, she established children's work as an integral part of Reader training as well as providing a similar input to several theological courses. The increasing demand for simple basic training for inexperienced leaders led to her writing a four-evening course for a group of parishes in 1998. This formed the basis of her book, Fired up... Not Burnt Out, which was published by BRF in 2001. She is also author of The Gifts of Baptism, Welcome to the Lord's Table and Where are the children? also published by BRF.
