Word & Praise

Words & Praise is a short, very informal modern service, led by a church member (usually church warden) .  It isn’t out of the Prayer Book at all, but designed simply for our own parishes to use.  We have hymns and bible readings and prayers, and a little talk about the understanding of the readings.  This usually lasts no longer than half an hour, and we then finish with coffee/tea and biscuits and a friendly get together and chat.  There is a collection during the service to help with our expenses.
