Creative Resources
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our Creative Resources lending library is closed until September 2021
Creativity in the Community
The Montgomery Library is home to Stories for the Soul, Godly Play and Storytelling With A Twist's Creative Reminiscence Collection.
Stories for the Soul
Stories for the Soul is a way of providing community, story and creativity for older people and people living with dementia. It's a method of storytelling inspired by Godly Play. The Creative Reminiscence Collection can be used in response time to help people to tell their own story.

Godly Play
Our lending library hosts the story resources for Godly Play which is an established yet innovative approach to Christian nurture. The style of storytelling encourages people to make meaning for themselves and to connect these stories with personal experience. This empowering method can be used in contexts such as intergenerational worship, schools, chaplaincy, children's work on Sundays, youth groups and adult small groups.
