Following the pattern for Services of the Word laid down in Common Worship and the Church of Ireland Prayer Book, this resource puts flesh on the bare bones and offers a complete set of services for use throughout the Church's year. Material is provided for 22 services, from General Forms to seasonal occasions, including Advent, Christmas, Mothering Sunday, Easter, Pentecost, Trinity Sunday, Harvest, All Saints, Remembrance, Christ the King, services of reconciliation, and celebrations of new ministry. Texts are given for every part of the service: Preparation, Greeting, Acclamation, Penitence, the Ministry of the Word, Affirmation of Faith, Intercessions, The Lord's Prayer, Blessing and Dismissal.

This unique volume sets out the Principal Service Bible readings in full for all three years of the Church of Ireland calendar. Old Testament, Psalm, Epistle and Gospel readings are printed out in clear type for public reading, in the NRSV translation. Elegantly bound and with clear type, this is suitable for use at a lectern, but is also portable enough for those who like to follow the readings in the pew.
