Lenten Candle Liturgy
2024, 21 pp
In recent years, some congregations have started a new tradition; extinguishing
candles on Sundays through Lent.
This dimming of light during the season of Lent reminds people that this 40-day journey is leading to the cross of Good Friday.
The Worship Group for the United Network for Justice and Peace in Palestine and Israel (UNJPPI) sees a connection between the journey to Good Friday and the journey of the Palestinian people. At the same time, we recognize and need to acknowledge that, in the West, we have been complicit in the ongoing discrimination towards Palestinians and the destruction of their culture, their land and their people.
We humbly offer this resource for any to use as they see fit in worship or in other devotional practice.
