| We are offering congregations access to ROOTS on the Web, an ecumenical resource for Lectionary-based worship and learning. There are 2 new sets of resources available each week: ‘Worship Together’ (previously known as ‘All Age Worship’) and ‘Children and Youth’. Access is available at a subsidized cost of £20 per year.
To help you get the most out of this resource, we are also offering virtual tutorials. These sessions will guide you through the tools available and show you how to navigate the website with ease—whether you're looking for kids' worksheets, sermon ideas, group activities, or other resources.
Register to secure access for your congregations here. To request a tutorial please contact the Advisor for Christian Life. |

| Advertising posters are now ready and the registration form is online. Ahead of time, each congregation is asked to produce a poster (max size A2) showcasing: - how the congregation has been blessed (NB this is not about ‘success’ but blessings received, perhaps unexpectedly)

Someone is to bring this poster to the BIG Day with them for sharing and discussion… |
