Our lectionary cartoons were our very first product.   Subscribers receive materials in batches throughout the church year, by email as .pdf files. (We no longer offer hard-copy distribution by mail.)   The original SUNDAY PAPER appeals to intermediate through junior high, and presents one lesson (usually the Gospel) as a two-line cartoon; the other readings, and the Psalm, are presented as single vignettes. The lessons are tied together with a short commentary.  THE SUNDAY PAPER provides both Track 1 and Track 2 of the Revised Common Lectionary (as used by the Episcopal Church USA) to all subscribers, allowing you to mix and match depending on which lessons are read in church on a given Sunday.  THE SUNDAY PAPER JUNIOR is aimed at younger children (preschool through grade 3 or 4), and also covers both tracks of the Revised Common Lectionary. The SUNDAY PAPER JUNIOR features one lesson only, usually the Gospel. THE SUNDAY PAPER JUNIOR offers big, bold artwork, a simple story line, an activity page designed to stir children's imaginations and spirituality and that requires pencil or crayons only (no glue or scissors) and does not involve word games or other literacy-based activities. THE SUNDAY PAPER JUNIOR can be used in church, nursery, or classroom.

“My parish subscribes to both age editions of The Sunday Paper, and we love them!  I knew about them from my previous parish in Virginia where we also used them and believe they are an important part of a larger effort to say to parents and children alike:  ‘It is important for the kids to be here, and we want them here!’  And to be able to do that with something that in itself is also such a quality biblical educational product is a real joy.”           - The Rev. Susan Buchanan, Christ Church, North Conway, NH   “These leaflets are such a great part of our children's ministry and always give me a theologically sound, child friendly, and wise perspective on the week.”           - Will Bouvel, St. Chrysostom's Episcopal Church, Chicago, IL   “I don’t feel like a ‘natural born storyteller’ but your cartoons helped me tremendously! The children seemed to be listening attentively and seemed to be remembering the stories week after week. Thank you for giving me the courage, images and words with which to tell the whole story of our people. Thanks for your books and leaflets. Keep up the great work!”           - Iris Bladsell, Emmaus House Chapel, Atlanta, GA   “The Sunday Paper is a highlight for our children.  A visiting child said yesterday when she thought I was taking her paper away, ‘This is mine.  I want to keep it to learn about God.’”           - Jill Meares, Coordinator of Christian Formation, Calvary Episcopal Church, Fletcher, NC

Thank you for your ... creation of these mini-gems!”                              - Mindy Haynes             Heavenly Rest, New York City “Solid theological insights on every level, including the deepest symbolical levels, and genius for conveying it to children. Never watered down or insipid ... I never have found resources that good before.”           - The Very Rev. Leona Irsch             Avon, New York “I find The Sunday Paper Junior an excellent resource for our small church; I’ve used your Note to Parents several times on bulletins to tie in with my sermon.”           - The Rev. Parker Marks             St. Michael’s, Easley, SC “Oh how the children look forward to their weekly edition!  I have forwarded information to the church down the street and so I hope that they too will start a subscription.  Many many thanks for your hard work; I wish you could be here on Sundays to see and hear the children when we hand their papers out—many of them like a copy of each.”            - Carol E. Kirner             St. Paul’s Church, Brookfield, CT
