Call of Conscience curriculum

NEW from Brethren Press:Youth should each have a blank book for journaling if leaders use the reproducible handouts. The new CO Journal, available at low cost from Brethren Press, takes the place of the reproducible handouts and the blank book. It contains most of the handouts, along with extra prayers and questions for journaling, and has been prepared so that it is possible for a reader to use independently. Because of this it varies slightly from the online version.

The Church of the Brethren is making this curriculum available to you free of charge. Please provide this basic information to access the files.
