Planning ahead for seasonal worship

With Christmas around the corner and the new liturgical year now begun (Year C), we have been busy updating the Worship Planning Page with service resources for your congregation.

As always, you can find services prepared three or four weeks in advance.

That means all Advent and Christmas services are now available on the Worship Planning Page.

Due to the Churchwide Office closure over Christmas and New Year, we will also publish the Christmastide services (from St Stephen on 26 December to Epiphany on 6 January) early. These will be available to you by 7 December.

That includes St Stephen and St John the Apostle, the Commemoration of the Innocents, New Year’s Day, New Year’s Eve, the Name of Jesus, and more.

We will return to the regular three/four-week rotation early next year.
