A Guide for Hosting a School Visit to Your Church

Church with open doors

While not all churches may have children worshipping among the congregation on a Sunday morning, most churches have children and schools in their local community. This guide suggests ways to build and strengthen the relationship between your church and local school(s) by hosting educational visits or services, and offers other suggestions of how to build meaningful connection between the Church and school.

Our church buildings and people are a God-given resource and there are many opportunities to use these assets to meet the needs of visiting school groups.

They offer a wealth of ideas and suggestions for how your church can connect with your local school.
