The Jaffna Diocese of the Church of South India has conducted a special Vacation Bible School Teachers’ Training Programme for Sunday School teachers across the Diocese.
This programme was organized by the Board of Christian Education of the Jaffna Diocese, under the leadership and guidance of the Bishop, the Rt. Rev. Dr. V. Pathmathayalan.
The purpose of this training was to equip and encourage Sunday School teachers for their important ministry among children, and to prepare them for the upcoming Vacation Bible School programme.
The resource persons for this training came from the Thoothukudi–Nazareth Diocese of the Church of South India.
The partnership between the Thoothukudi–Nazareth Diocese and the Jaffna Diocese has a meaningful history. Since 2015, both dioceses have been working closely together in children’s ministry, sharing resources, experience, and a common commitment to nurturing the faith of children.
Through this training, the teachers were equipped with practical ideas and creative approaches to communicate God’s Word effectively and meaningfully to children.
They were also reminded that Vacation Bible School is more than an annual programme. It is a valuable opportunity to introduce children to the love of Jesus Christ, help them understand God’s Word, and encourage them to grow in faith and Christian values.
Following this training, these dedicated teachers will serve in the six-day Vacation Bible School programme organized by the Jaffna Diocese.
The Diocese expresses its sincere gratitude to the Thoothukudi–Nazareth Diocese and all the resource persons for their valuable contribution and partnership.
Together, both dioceses continue to invest in children, strengthen their faith, and prepare the next generation to become faithful disciples and responsible leaders in the Church and society.
Through partnership, commitment, and faith, the Jaffna Diocese continues its mission of nurturing children and building a strong future for the Church.
