Conference Sunday

WORSHIP MATERIALS AND RESOURCES
For Conference Sunday, June 10, 2007

This year Annual Conference extends through Sunday. The Conference staff and the Annual Conference worship team have created resources so that all around the New England in over 500 local churches, we can be worshipping together with a similar theme, focus and message.

The Worship Resources for Annual Conference Sunday are now available. Please click on the links below to download the resources, and use them for the worship planning in your local church for Conference Sunday, June 10, 2007.

Feel free to use any or all of this material either in its entirety, or by editing, rearranging, or simply taking pieces or inspiration from these resources to help prepare the worship service for your local church.

May God bless you through this experience, and through our joining in worship in this unique way.
