A new and unusual service for Lent...! At the beginning of Lent each family in the congregation is invited to lend a plant from home (silk or live), following a Jewish Shavuot cust om. The following Sundays in Lent build on this focal point as an object is added each week. Two readers participate in a dialogue explaining the symbol for that day. A child brings the symbol forward and holds it during the dialogue. In this way several families are able to participate. Visions of Lent Year 3 also includes: - Sample bulletin insert prior to Lent - Example of plant reminder that can be used in bulletin - Sample Torah for bulletin inserts - A suggested worship service for Palm/Passion Sunday Betty Lynn Schwab of Saskatoon, Canada, is an ordained pastor serving Meewasin Valley United Church.
