Worship resources

From this page (under the picture) you can download a document with resources and information to help with planning an Own Arrangement service.

We are hoping to add to this list- if you have resources that you think others would find helpful, please contact the Circuit Office to let us know.

A few ideas to get you started:
The Methodist Church website has a resources page with suggestions and a number of service outlines to download: https://www.methodist.org.uk/for-churches/resources/leading-worship/resourcing-local-arrangements/

There are also a number of service outlines available for a number of services based on Our Calling and the Methodist Way of Life.

Another section of the website has hymn suggestions for every Sunday, including new hymns, all related to the lectionary readings: https://www.methodist.org.uk/for-churches/resources/

Music copies of Singing the Faith have a variety of indexes to assist with hymn selection, including an Index of Biblical texts, and a Liturgical Index.

The Methodist Worship Book is a useful resource- the Orders of Service for Morning, Afternoon or Evening services can be used to provide a framework for your service. The Guidance for Ordering a service (page 51) gives some guidance for structuring a service and resource material for different seasons is available from page 52 onwards.
