Called to Gather: Creating Meaningful School Chapels
Description

Planning school chapels can feel overwhelming, especially when teachers want worship to be meaningful, engaging, and age-appropriate. This session helps Christian educators move from stress to confidence by revisiting why we gather for worship and offering practical structures that simplify the planning process. Participants will learn a clear flow for chapel planning, discover ways to involve students meaningfully, and explore helpful tools and resources to support preparation. Together, we'll walk through the planning steps by creating a mock chapel plan, with time to collaborate and adapt ideas for upcoming chapels. Attendees will leave with renewed clarity, practical tools, and an unruffled approach to planning worship at school.
