All Age?
Good day down in Balham today looking at All Age: Family Services and Beyond.
As well as theory and some practical ideas and experiences shared, this afternoon we did a service as a kind of "worked example" and then debriefed. I think it worked and my fear that it would be some kind of strange role play rather than a real expression of worship was misplaced as people entered into it.
I think that some inclusive act of worship that brings all ages together can be done and be powerful, it's just that when it's done badly and becomes "stunt at the front" it puts people off.
And it was nice to dust off the guitar - realise I haven't played it for a while!
