Crowning the Year : Liturgy, theology and ecclesiology for the rural church Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Crowning the Year offers a practical guide to celebrating the key moments of the liturgical year in rural multi-church contexts.

It considers the nature and distinctiveness of the rural church, the patterns of its worship and its ministry, reflecting on the importance of place, local community, the church building and the occasions which rural communities celebrate.

In doing so, it offers an attractive and welcome ecclesiology and theology of the rural church.

Crowning the Year will equip all who lead or assist with worship in rural contexts, lay and ordained.

It offers essential groundwork on liturgical theology, and a theology of ministry in rural, multi-parochial contexts.

It then provides practical ideas and direction on how to prepare for and conduct worship for the principal feasts and seasons of the Christian year, with a special emphasis on Christmas, Holy Week and Easter and the occasions such as Harvest, Plough Sunday and Rogation that are especially significant in rural communities.
