Resources for Local Arrangements
Due to the availability of Preachers the Circuit is needing to plan more Local Arrangements for local churches. This page offers a range of resources to help churches plan for such services.
A monthly 'Support for Local Arrangements Sheet' will be issued providing seasonal resources for the next 2 months ahead.
Reflections on the Lectionary Readings
A reflection is prepared each week by one of our Local Preachers and will be posted here 10 days before the Sunday.
Sunday 14th August - prepared by Christine Jones
Sunday 21st August - prepared by David Bainbridge
Reflective Lectionary Gospel Reading
Starting in September, Adam Biddlestone will prepare a dramatized version of the Gospel Reading for each Sunday . These can be used in worship.
