"I hope my words invite children to find thesmevles in those [Bible] stories and to wonder about our great God and their whole part in this world. My whole job as a writer is to invite children into that arena of wonder." - Glenys Nellist

Throughout our faith’s history, our scriptures have been passed down through oral storytelling. The Bible is made up of stories handed down generation to generation, and it is through these stories that we have come to know who God is and what God is like. Children’s author, Glenys Nellist, has harnessed the power of storytelling to invite children into God’s great story. Her new book, Gathered at the Table, welcomes children to engage their holy imagination and find themselves at the table, gathered with all of God’s beloved, to experience this amazing, mysterious sacrament.
