Church and Sunday School Handicraft for Boys

By A Neely Hall

"Church and Sunday School Handicraft for Boys" is a comprehensive manual dedicated to engaging young men in creative and practical manual labor within a religious and community context. Written by A. Neely Hall, a prominent figure in the early 20th-century handicraft movement, this work provides a wide array of woodworking projects specifically tailored to improve church facilities and enrich the Sunday School experience.

The book outlines numerous step-by-step projects, ranging from simple classroom accessories like hymn-card holders and collection boxes to more ambitious builds such as sand tables for lessons and equipment for the church social hall. By focusing on the "handicraft" method, the work encourages boys to apply their mechanical skills toward the service of their congregation and the wider community.

As both a practical guide and a historical look at vocational education, "Church and Sunday School Handicraft for Boys" emphasizes the intersection of faith, service, and craftsmanship. It remains an insightful resource for those interested in traditional woodworking techniques, historical pedagogy, and the heritage of youth engagement programs.
