Episcopal Community Services: ECS Sunday 2024 Rogation Celebrations: Planting Seeds of Gospel Justice
Planning for Rogation Sunday, May 5, 2024
Introduction: Planting Seeds of Justice
This collection of resources for your Episcopal Community Services Sunday/Rogation day celebration is intended to be a full basket of harvested prayers for your good use. In planning a Rogation Sunday worship experience for your church or home, please remember that what matters most are your own mindful prayers and being open to connecting to God’s wondrous creation.
Simply being outside, taking a walk and being in prayer, might just be enough.

Introduction: Planting Seeds of Justice
Friends, we who are many are one body in Christ. From the common work of people, God shapes the way of justice, peace and hope for a world broken by systems that reinforce poverty in heart, body, and mind. Our call in Christ is to proclaim the Gospel with works of mercy and service. As we mark this ECS Sunday celebrating our common mission in the Diocese of New Jersey let us lift up our common witness to justice and peace.
