Worship on the Web

INTRODUCTION

If you are looking for a guide to worship material for a particular life event, such as a Baptism, wedding, funeral or blessing, visit our life events and the Church pages.

We also offer two day-by-day resources in this section. On our Pray Now 2008 pages we provide a new prayer for each day of the month, while On this day highlights key figures from history - from celebrated poets, missionaries and theologians to composers and church men and women from across the ages.

You can also find a guide to Christian festivals in this area where you can discover how and why we celebrate certain times of the year.

How we worship: music plays an important part in our services

We are also pleased to offer a range of worship resources and reflections for throughout the year from the Church of Scotland Scots Language in Worship Group.

More than food for thought The Worship and Doctrine Task Group is in the process of reflecting on the importance of Holy Communion to the renewal of the Church. As part of this exercise, a series of essays and papers are being produced. Some of these are now available, by clicking here, for your interest and information.

Holy Communion Symposium

A Symposium on Holy Communion and the Renewal of the Church was held in Dunblane in September 2007. Some of the speeches are now available by clicking here, for your interest and information.
