Recommendations for Training
We recommend that you send at least two people from your church to a training along with the
DRE so that they can support each other in training others when they return.
If you begin a Spirit Play program, please register it by sending an email to nitapenfold@aol.
com with church name and number of classes with ages of children. Please update your
information if you change DRE’s or contact people, or if you add classes.
If you have an ongoing Spirit Play program, we recommend that you have additional people
trained every two or three years to cover the turnover in teachers and to guarantee the quality of
your Spirit Play program. Many programs have experienced difficulties with Spirit Play when their
original teachers who are trained leave, and only people who were trained secondarily remain. It’s
good to get a refresher training to keep the program alive with possibilities.
