happy 21st grace! and a worship trick – place mat liturgy

Mealwithfriends-2

we realised last night that it was grace‘s 21st birthday! had a wonderful meal with friends led by steve summers. its become an annual thing now to have a service in the context of a meal in the main space of the church. i really love doing this. one neat innovation last night which i am making a worship trick (53 series 4) was that the words and prayers were written as a place mat – such a simple idea that i am sure will be repeated! i didn’t have my camera, only a phone but you get the idea…

    Yeah! We did just the same thing a few weeks ago in Marquand. Great minds think alike 🙂

    I want to thank you for the inspiration!! It was the table in the sanctuary with candles and people eating a meal that I fell in love with. We too did a placemat liturgy with potluck for epiphany 2015. Table was adorned with candles, poinsettas and crowns. Loved by all. Even thought it was -40C that day, we had close to 80 folks come. We put a pic of the table on our website westviewuc.ca. It ran down the length of our sanctuary. It was like a big family meal. A memory many will keep.
