The Resource Center of the Presbytery of Arkansas is the lending library of curriculum samples, DVDs, CD-Roms, Videos, Books, Equipment and Periodicals. Anyone associated with a church in the Presbytery of Arkansas--members, officers, leaders, teachers, pastors and educators--may check out resources. You are invited to visit the Resource Center housed in the Presbytery office, call ex. 104 at 501.663.2424, visit the Display table at Presbytery meetings, fax 501.224.2429 or email mailto:niann@presbyteryofarkansas.org your requests.
Director NiAnn Thompson, Certified Christian Educator, can answer your questions and assist you with suggestions about your Christian Education program. We are open to your suggestions of items congregations would like to see placed in the Center. You may return resources by mail (using the mailing label that accompanies resources via "Library" or "Media" rate), send them with someone going to the presbytery office, or return to the Resource Center display at presbytery meetings.
No fee is charged for use of resources, but donations are cheerfully accepted to help purchase new resources. Patrons are responsible for the timely return of borrowed items and for replacing items lost while in their care. Please be considerate of other patrons and return items promptly.
Words are inadequate for responding to the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut. Please find resource links attached that may be of help to you and your congregations in days ahead. May God bring the peace that passes all understanding.
