Worship in church or from home
The Sunday Morning Resources are available for use in churches, and for use at home for personal reflection or worship with those you live with. Based on the lectionary readings for the Sunday, each resource consists of a short reflection based on the Gospel reading. The homilies have been written by clergy and LLMs in the Diocese of Ely.
The reflections are accompanied by suggestions for prayers, tied into the theme of the sermon, and also suggestions for suitable hymns and songs you may want to listen to online, or sing yourself if you know them. Some contributors also provide suggestions for all-age worship.
