Worship Resources

Taking the time to incorporate a meaningful story from church history, a powerful example of an individual's sacrifice, or the sharing of a rich biography often enhances the congregational worship experience. Sharing the stories behind our favorite hymns, or a recent experience at a Community of Christ historic site helps breathe life into our shared past in a pleasant worship setting.
