Wortgottesdienste mit Senioren

Liturgies of the Word with seniors need a fixed and recurring structure that is familiar to the participants and offers orientation. At the same time, they need creative elements that allow time for deepening and clarification in order to relate the biblical message to one's personal biography and to interpret one's own life in the light of God. This book offers many suggestions for the use of symbols, colours and figures. As a basis, all models offer tips on preparation and design, song suggestions, formulated texts for the development of the readings, intercessions and blessings. All models have passed the practical test and can be celebrated with little effort by full-time and voluntary workers with groups of senior citizens.
