Favorite Sites
cofe - Church of England

This is an English site about the church.  There is lots of information that I'd like to put on this site, but why duplicate when I can put a link in and have the benefit of their wisdom.  This site has information about church history, ministry, funerals, baptisms and weddings.  There are pages dedicated to what it means to be a Christian and many articles about education and church schools. 

 

If you are looking to produce an order of service booklet you can use this U.S. site link to download, but be sure to check http://justus.anglican.org/resources/bcp/formatted_1979.htm

 


Free Christian skits

I love it when a talented person shares so generously.  This author has many, many, many skits which he offers freely for use by church community.   Great stuff for church, youth groups and RE.


Sermons for Kids:

Sermons4kids is an awesome tool for those working with Children's ministry.  The site has a weekly short sermon for you to use or very simply adapt for your use.  Each week is updated to reflect the readings of the lectionary and is accompanied by colouring in pages and puzzles and sometimes even powerpoint stories to be used in conjunction with the sermon.


Niki's music website This website has details about Niki's music and lists some of her various musical involvments.

To find a Bible passage in almost any translation go to: www.biblegateway.com
Christianet.com

This is the index page for the website that has heaps of bible quizes, free screensavers, clipart and much much more.


Faith Facts

This site is an absolute must in a day and age where our faith is unfire from people like Richard Dawkins, Author of "The God Delusion".  Do you know that there is a good and logical reason for our belief?  The notion of "Blind Faith" is not our basis for belief, but our relationship with a God who took on flesh and blood and revealed himself to real people.  Our Bible is also a reliable source of information.  Find out why by visiting this fantastic site. 

If you are looking for some history there is a site about the Tudor Monarchy which lists the 39 articles of faith.  If you'd like to read about the monarchy that so influenced the formation of the church this is a great site. Go to it's home page (http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/index.html  )   to chose whose life story you'd like to read about.
