What Is Godly Play

From a young age, children’s lives are filled with experiences where their worth is defined by what they learn, how they act, or what they produce. There are few places for children to sit in the joy of wonder, silence, and creation.

The Godly Play Foundation is a global child-centered organization that equips adults to create spaces where children’s innate spirituality is honored and nurtured through story, wonder, and play. By honoring the centrality, capacity, and competency of children, we are building unique and valuable spaces for thousands of children around the world to come close to the Mystery of God every week.
