Advent<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"Looking<\/strong> for a simple framework for your Advent midweek service? The basic outline of Service of Word and Prayer (ACS pp. 42-45) can be contextualized to fit your needs. This video<\/a> gives help for using the service. If you are a Sundays and Seasons subscriber, visit the SSCOM library (Sundays and Seasons Resources\/Seasonal Rites\/Seasonal Rites for Advent) for Advent midweek services based on the ACS Service of Word and Prayer, including \u201cHoly Darkness: A service of Word and Prayer for Advent\u201d and \u201cPause, Prepare, Ponder: An Advent Midweek Series.\u201d<\/p>\n

Listen<\/strong> to \u201cFilled with Hope and Gratitude,\u201d<\/a> a new setting of the Magnificat by Paul Damico-Carper.<\/p>\n

Christmas<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"Teach<\/strong> a new Christmas hymn such as \u201cNight Long Awaited\/Noche Anunciada.\u201d <\/em>In addition to this blog post,<\/a> there is a short description of this and every hymn\/song in All Creation Sings <\/em>through Sundays and Seasons. This Augsburg Fortress blog post<\/a> describes the value of these brief descriptions.<\/p>\n

Introduce<\/strong> your congregation to other new Christmas hymns through choral settings. \u201cWe Are Waiting\u201d<\/a> by John Helgen would be a great way to have the assembly learn this new hymn. Curious about what other ACS hymns and songs have anthem arrangements? This listing<\/a> is a great help to church musicians.<\/p>\n

Time after Epiphany<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Incorporate<\/strong> \u201cLamenting Racism\u201d into worship as the church recognizes Christ\u2019s transforming presence for all peoples and nations (ACS p. 62-63). \u00a0This video<\/a> gives context around the use of the rite.\"\"<\/p>\n

Explore<\/strong> a new setting of the liturgy as you plan for the Sundays after Epiphany. A webinar from Augsburg Fortress<\/a> is a good place to start learning about Settings 11 and 12. If you desire a briefer video snapshot of the liturgy settings, see these 5-minute videos.<\/a> Audio recordings of Setting 11<\/a> and Setting 12<\/a> are also available to support your introduction process.<\/p>\n
