{"product_id":"ploughshares-and-first-fruits-chris-thorpe-9781786222909","title":"Ploughshares and First Fruits: A Year of Festivals for the Rural Church","description":"The annual celebrations of Plough Sunday, Rogation and Harvest are hugely important for churches serving rural communities and are a key way for those churches to engage in mission, usually seeing congregations swell at such times. Ploughshares and First Fruits draws on the inspired work being done by one rural church to celebrate rural living throughout the year and thereby grow its congregation. As well as providing many fresh ideas for keeping the established festivals, it provides ready-to-use, participative liturgies that engage all the senses, appeal to all ages and give small churches a round-the-year resource. Included are creative liturgies for: - A pet service for the Feast of St Francis - Walking and pilgrimage - Lambing season - Riders' Sunday - Lammas - A Summer Festival (an instant jam-jar flower festival)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Thorpe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1786222906\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786222909\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Canterbury Press Norwich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.58d","brand":"Chris Thorpe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44127203885311,"sku":"9781786222909","price":27.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_64a5b298-8202-4926-bee8-092c92df70f7.jpg?v=1687452396","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ploughshares-and-first-fruits-chris-thorpe-9781786222909","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
