Children's Website Resource



Every now and then, you find a website worth sharing. . .


I heard about Rev. Dr. Leanne Hadley from Leonard Sweet and the amazing ministry she had going on in Colorado Springs. Rev. Hadley is an Ordained Elder in The United Methodist Church and a specialist in the area of Children's Spirituality. She is President and Founder of First Steps Spirituality Center. I was anxious to look her up on the internet and after checking out the ministries and opportunities for intentional faith development for children, I wanted to share this website with you.
Follow this link to: First Steps Spirituality Center and work you way through the wonderful ministries, playground (yes, playground on the web), and resources for Children, however you will find this webpage is designed not only to help children but also teens, parents, grandparents, educators, and others interested adults learn and grow spiritually.
Dr. Hadley will be a keynote speaker at the FOCUS 2009 Conference in July to be held in Indianapolis.
Let me know what you think.


Leadership Matters... In December 2007, Rev. Leanne Hadley received her Doctor of Ministry in the area of spirituality and children and teens from United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio. Through listening to and learning from children and teens over the course of 25 years, Rev. Leanne Hadley has developed amazingly effective healing methods that set First Steps apart. Her hands-on approach and one-on-one time with children make her ministry one that is "hands-on" rather than just a "study of."
