From a young age, our founder and creator Josie had an affinity for children and people with special needs. Both groups have always been drawn to her, and any time her family was with her when this happened they would say, "Josie's met another friend!"
While pursuing her degree in college, Josie worked with children with autism and grew her friend group even more. After college, many of her passions and talents came together when she started a special needs class at her church. Josie wasn't satisfied with her search to find a curriculum, one that was tailored to special needs that was engaging and thoughtful while still teaching the truths of the Bible. Thus began a yearlong undertaking to create a curriculum specifically for children and those with special needs; her friends.
We hope when you share these lessons with your own friends, they will come away knowing they are not just friends of Josie, but friends of Jesus.

5 out of 5 starsI have used a few of these lessons with my granddaughter, and decided to buy the whole package because she loves the drawings and the lessons. They are simple, but don’t dumb down the truth of the Bible. The cleverness of the pictures, the activities, and the crafts all make this one of my favorite Bible activities with my favorite little people. Thank you!
