These are the resources on offer for
January 9th (Covenant)
The related readings for this Sunday are:
Deuteronomy 29:10-15
Jeremiah 31:31-34
Romans 12:1-2
John 15:1-10
We have chosen the theme: Making
Promises
At the beginning of the year most Methodist Churches
will be
holding a Covenant Service. We have chosen to provide resources for
this on the second Sunday in the New Year for two reasons. Firstly the
first Sunday is a bank holiday weekend and so many people will be
away and secondly it allows us to focus on Epiphany, which sadly is
overlooked by many Methodist Churches. You can, of course, use these
resources on the 2nd of January or any other date that you wish to have
a Covenant Service.
The Family Friendly Churches Trust provides an all-age Covenant Liturgy
on All
Included. This could make a refreshing change for many churches.
