Guild Constitution

The Guild's constitution outlines the philosophy behind the Guild, the way the movement is organised, and how it is run. If you have any questions about this, please contact the Guild Office.

Help...I'm leading worship!

Help... I'm Leading Worship!, This resource can still provide help and inspiration for group or personal devotions.

Meetings without a speaker

No speaker no problem is a resource that provides ideas for Guild meetings that can be run by Guild members themselves. Each meeting provides everything you need including hymns, bible readings and an activity. Additional resources are available in our 2024-25 resource

Theme and Discussion Topic Guide

The annual Theme & Discussion Topic Guide is a collection of handy notes and guidelines for those co-ordinating their Guild's programme. In September we will begin our theme Sure Foundations. This guide contains all the information you need to lead worship and help plan your Guild syllabus. Please circulate it widely amongst your members.
