They speak to the child in each one of us.
Bring your open hearts and imaginations. The church will provide a comfy atmosphere, enchanted stories, and hot chocolate and marshmallows!
Sewell McCann has been immersed in storytelling for over 50 years. When teaching first grade, he told stories to help his students better understand the lessons. He has created over 1,400 original stories for Sparkle Stories and has trained parents and teachers around the world.
Sewell McCann is the lead teacher/trainer of How to Story – providing conscious storytelling tools for individual and community transformation – and chief story spinner at Sparkle Stories – gentle, thoughtful audio stories for children.
From a grateful parent on his stories: “I just wanted to take a quick moment to say how much I appreciate the goodness, comfort, wisdom, and healing you bring. An incredible gift in our lives – for parents as well as the children. You are making a difference in the lives of many.”
Tickets are $10 adult general admission (in-person or live stream) or $15 per family (in-person or live stream).
