are avoided.

Awake My Soul
This resource grew out of the 1998 National Conference on Children's Ministries. The first section is an introduction of some theological assumptions and tools for the design of liturgy as well as the full inclusion of all in the community of faith. The second is a collection of prayers, readings, and litanies developed for the 1998 National Conference on Children's Ministries. some of these may be useful to you in your Sunday morning worship just as they are. Others will need to be adapted to fit your situation. They are intended to be starting places. They model techniques or ways of thinking that can be translated t other scripture readings or other prayers.
