Useful resources from Arthur Rank

This is to bring to your attention some of the worship resources related to harvest and other seasonal themes for the next month-and-a-bit that can be obtained freely from the ARC website. Some of them may help you as you prepare to for your own worship or as you resource others.
Remembrance Sunday
This falls on 8 November this year. We don’t have any resources ourselves specifically related to Remembrance although we can recommend the free material available from Churches Together in Britain & Ireland. (Click to access these)
However there are other material available from our website that bear on some of the themes of Remembrance Sunday, especially some in the category “Crisis & Loss”. The resources we have for this can be got from the Worship “search page” click here), by selecting “Creation & Loss” from the drop-down menu & clicking “Search”.
Stir-up Sunday< “Stir-up Sunday” is traditionally the last Sunday before Advent (this year 22nd November). Rather than spoil your surprise by explaining what it is here, you can see the material from Woodlands Junior School by clicking here.

You can download a full liturgy for a Stir-up Sunday service - including a mystery recipe revealed as the service unfolds – from our website Word version

There are a few free resources for the season of Advent available to download from our website. In particular, we have the full liturgy for a procession & service for Advent Sunday itself (this year 29th November), which lends itself to all-age involvement.

(Word version )

Other resources we have for Advent can be got from the Worship “search page” (click here), by selecting “Advent” from the drop-down menu & clicking “Search”.
