“Nurturing generous-hearted living may be one of the greatest things we can do for young people,” says Judy Rois, Executive Director, Anglican Foundation of Canada. After launching AFC’s Generosity podcast in 2020, Canon Rois is deepening this theme in 2021, with her latest children’s book, Generous People are Everywhere.

To get the conversation started, Rois is inviting children, families, and youth ministry leaders to consider the book as a small group or home-based study. Rois says the illustrations and text, geared to ages 8–14, make this an excellent choice for Lent.

In addition to encouraging children and youth to read the book, AFC wants to include their voices in recorded interviews to be featured in Foundation Forward, a podcast inviting Canadians to talk about generosity. AFC is offering a free copy of the book to the first 20 young people who are willing to make their voices heard. Recorded submissions are required by April 12, 2021.

Those wishing to participate in Foundation Forward are encouraged to contact foundation@anglicanfoundation.org.
