Garry, Thanks for this resource. For many years, I've made a leaflet available to my people for use as personal or small group devotion using the Holy Saturday...
Thank you, Gary. I am sure that many will find this helpful. During the reading of I Peter (which we being at 3.18), we dim the lights; at the end of ...
Dear Paul and Ron It was wonderful to hear of your Holy Saturday practices. I am much encouraged. I kind've wish I were with you both right now! Garry...

Nathan, This is good work! I like the tie to "Good Shepherd Sunday." These are things which caught my eye: 1. In the Call to Worship, line 7, a word ("he"?) is...
Hi BapWorship people, A few days ago, I asked you all for feedback on the materials I had prepared for BWA day, and then my emails server went down. I can...
I am having difficulty locating suitable resources for a service of believer's baptism for a lady with learning difficulties. Does anyone know of anything...
Kath, It's been a while, but we once baptized a 31-year-old "profoundly retarded" woman. We used our normal service and just chose simpler wording where it was...
Thanks Ron. That is good advice and I was thinking if nothing is available "ready made" might have to rewrite the usual service myself. Best wishes. To:...
Well now, dear friends, can you help me? Imagine you are asked to list those in our Baptist history for whom you want to give thanks, who are they and why? And...
