We want to bring us all together as a diocesan family this Lent and Easter, by celebrating the many unique, simple and different ways we each demonstrate the extraordinary love of God in our ordinary, everyday lives.
We want to celebrate them by creating a film made-up of a montage of different clips sent in by people from across the parishes.
We are very grateful to Graham Kendrick and MakeWay Music, for giving us kind permission to use Graham's version of Be Glorified - the lyrics perfectly sum up the essence of our film. Maybe they will inspire you? Listen to it here
So, maybe you are a parent or carer, maybe you understand that you live out your calling as an accountant. Perhaps you are a bus driver or work in the local supermarket and see this service as your witness.
Maybe there is some voluntary work you do. Perhaps you use your technical or musical gifts to support the worship in your church.
Let us know!
What do you need to do?
- Use your phone to film a short clip which demonstrates or explains your job or any activity you do which you see as your calling or witness. Maybe you could hold up a sign, or film yourself 'doing' something linked to your job? Maybe you could hold up some of the lyrics of the song...be as creative as you like.
- Think visual - we probably won't be able to use the sound you send us
- It doesn't have to be long - 10 to 20 seconds.
- Please ensure you have the permission of anyone else you capture in your film. This is particularly the case of any children and young people - you must havethe permission of their parent or guardian - see more guidance here
- Email us at: communications@rochester.anglican.org to tell us about your clip and so we can arrange to receive it.
- Please send in any clips by Monday 15 March, 2021
Once complete we will share the film and use it in our online Maundy Thursday Chrism service.
Thank you!
