A new and unusual service for Lent...
At the beginning of Lent each family in the congregation is invited to lend a plant from home (silk or live), following a Jewish Shavuot custom. The following Sundays in Lent build on this focal point as an object is added each week. Two readers participate in a dialogue explaining the symbol for that day. A child brings the symbol forward and holds it during the dialogue. In this way several families are able to participate.
"Visions of Lent Year 3 "also includes:
- Sample bulletin insert prior to Lent
- Example of plant reminder that can be used in bulletin
- Sample Torah for bulletin inserts
- A suggested worship service for Palm/Passion Sunday

Worship in Lent provides an opportunity for a congregation to reflect significantly on our faith. Unlike Advent and Christmas, Lent is free from the excitement busyness and commercialism that distract us as worshipers. We need to hear God's voice afresh. The Passover tradition is a wonderful vehicle for that kind of listening, writes Betty Lynn Schwab.
"Visions Of Lent, Year 1" (three-book series) is a resource for congregational worship on each of the six Sundays in Lent. Special to Year 1 is a Maundy Thursday communion service.
The series provides congregations with a weekly presentation, which may be placed in the worship service. Each presentation offers a symbol. Symbols for Year 1 are Passover-related.
Symbols are:
- The bitter herbs
- The scorched shank bone
- The green herbs
- The fruits and nuts
- The unleavened bread
- The roasted egg

"Visions of Lent Year 2 "-- Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles) offers congregations a weekly presentation to be included in the regular Lenten worship service. This follow-up to Volume 1 (which concentrated on the Feast of Passover) focuses on the Palm Sunday story and six elements within that story that were significant parts of the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles or Booths. The festival is rooted in Leviticus 23:33f, where God commanded Moses to declare the festival to the people of Israel as a reminder of the temporary shelters they lived in when He delivered them out of Egypt.
Preparation for this worship series is very simple. Lent 1 begins with a plain, "symbolic" booth placed somewhere within the sanctuary. For the next five weeks objects are gradually added inside the booth.
Objects include:
Lent 2 -- citron (or other citrus fruit) in an attractive yet simple container
Lent 3 -- musical instruments (flute, cymbal, lyre, harps, trumpets, etc.)
Lent 4 -- donkey figure or picture
Lent 5 -- a large crown
Lent 6 (Palm Sunday) -- palm branches
Each presentation involves four participants including: minister, a youth, and two other readers. Parts are brief and need not be memorized.

Three young people can carry the entire story. Others could easily join the cast. Sounds that occur through the story easily capture the attention of the congregation. These may be created in the sanctuary by members of the congregation or pre-recorded.
New Revised Standard texts are used. The author faithfully follows the biblical story of Jesus' birth.
