Children at the Well Kit                 Articles     First Year     Second Year     Listen to Stories     Kit

Gert Johnson and Paula Weiss In order to help others create their own interfaith youth storytelling programs, we have documented our work associated with the Children at the Well. Although our project in 2006 included all the elements you will read about, you may wish to implement only a portion of what we have done…or, you may even use our project as a starting point, and go further.

Please feel free to adapt for your own uses with attribution, and please send feedback- we’d truly love to hear from you!

Sincerely,
Gert Johnson grsjohnson@aol.com       Paula Weiss pbethweiss@aol.com
