Shining the Light of Christ into a world of conflict (PDF download)

Digital download: A liturgy for Remembrance Sunday with an emphasis on the need for peace. Also included is an extensive section of additional resources and suggestions, as well as an optional symbolic action for children. These resources have the UK tradition of Remembrance in mind, but provide ideas or items which may be adapted for worship on this theme in other locations.

‘We mark Remembrance Sunday in the hope that we will remember the costliness of war, not only the wars of the twentieth century which engulfed so much of the world, but also the smaller yet deadly conflicts of this century. For it surely seems there are lessons as yet unlearned while violent conflicts take repeated tolls on human communities and the very fabric of God’s creation.’ 

Nancy Cocks is a retired minister and a former Deputy Warden of Iona Abbey. She is the author of several books and digital downloads.
