Liturgical Dance
Three dancers, dressed in different monochromatic colors, each one carrying a candle, dance to the opening and closing hymn. Have the choir sing one verse of each without the congregation, so that those who want simply to look and listen as they pray are able to do so.
Multi-media
With slides or PowerPoint®, use photos of the creation as a vivid backdrop for the reading of the first lesson. Mix local sites with other better known visions of beauty. With the use of a sampler, access the sounds of rushing water, wind, and early morning birds greeting the new day. Use a different reader for each day of the creation.
Service Notes
Ask parishioners to bring a small rock along next Sunday.
Depending on the year, Memorial Day weekend in the United States will fall either this week or next. Be sure to include appropriate remembrances during the intercessions. Only a small percentage of people will attend services on Memorial Day and this will give more people a chance to engage in a thankful reflection.
