Mary Vano came to St. Margaret’s Episcopal Church in Little Rock, Arkansas, it was clear that there was energy around formation for children – just not the usual Vacation Bible School way.

I became very curious, in particular, about how those people committed to faith formation are functioning at this moment in time.
