The purpose of the program is to field-test resources and trainings that will equip parents, caregivers, pastors, and church musicians to pass along the language and experience of worship to young children. CPH will form four cohorts of 10-15 congregations in partnership with the Missouri and Northern Illinois Districts of the LCMS, representing diverse urban, suburban, and rural churches of varying sizes. CPH will develop and field-test two waves of resources informed by feedback from the cohorts, offering continuing training and webinars for wider implementation. CPH aims to serve 40-60 congregations throughout the duration of the grant.
