Another wide-ranging collection of resources, including material for Advent, Christmas, Lent and Holy Week.
Also includes a reflection, meditation and prayer for Holocaust Memorial Day; resources and ideas for remembering the Bible with women; prayers by and for kids; all-age resources for Pentecost and Ascension, and Christmastime; harvest prayers; a meditative look at climate change, the sacredness of all life and human responsibility; a blessing for a new car; stories and reflections for the World Week for Peace in Palestine and Israel; a reflection and prayer on racial justice; prayers for Remembrance Sunday; a reflection, meditation, and ideas for taking action on homelessness …
So – as always with the Iona Community – worship which is contextual, prophetic, with a strong justice and peace edge.

God of justice and joy,
help us to be faithful to our calling to walk in the footsteps of Jesus,
to be people of hospitality, integrity, justice and compassion.
Amen
