A-Z Of Assemblies
Taking a school assembly is an excellent way of sharing Jesus with children, but it can also be a daunting and scary privilege - especially if you have to prepare the assembly from scratch. The assemblies in this book remove this element of stress. They are short, snappy and to the point and introduce children to Jesus in a fun and relevant way. Each assembly has a clearly structured aim, with activities to involve the children in the theme of the assembly. There is appropriate application of the assembly to the Christian faith, including a prayer and suggestions for songs. Every assembly in the book has been tried and tested in a school and is open to adaptation or development to suit the needs of your audience. Suitable for Key Stage 2-3

Prayers For A New Day
'Prayer must be the most exposed and vulnerable form of writing,' says Graham Jeffery. 'For while poetry evokes the world or the human spirit, prayer has to wrestle with the difficulty of being human.'In four sections - contemplation of the Gospels, prayers for the Eucharist, prayers for those who face mental suffering and depression, and reflections on being a priest - Graham Jeffery writes from the heights and depths of his own life, revealing in simple but profound language the strength and vulnerability of the human spirit.

Time Together
'Relationships deepen through meaningful communication, and our relationship with the living God who created us will only develop and grow if we are in frequent communication with him.' Thus Susan Sayers offers her prayers with the hope that they will become the starting point which enables you to carry on praying in your own words, pouring out to God who both loves and listens whatever is on your mind or in your heart. There are acts of praise and wonder, thanksgiving and love, springing from ordinary, everyday work and relationships, and the real world we all inhabit. There are expressions of grief and pain, confusion and disappointment, which are just as important to bring to God as the good times and the moments of spiritual uplift. And there are frameworks for intercession which you can use daily as you pray for your church, your community, and the needs of the world.

Praying The Passion
The perfect daily companion for the Lenten season, this little book by Ken Taylor is a comprehensive narrative of the Passion using details and aspects of all four Gospel accounts. Mark's account is used as a base, and details unique to the other three Gospels are interwoven to produce a 'composite Passion'. This larger, fuller account is used as a springboard for meditation and prayer. For each day of Lent, there is one reading from the Passion on the left-hand page and one meditation on the right-hand page. The book contains three appendices: one of explanatory notes; one that describes a Passover Seder; and one with a suggested use of selections from the material within the congregation during Holy Week.
