Liturgy for the Beginning of the School Year


The Presbyterian Mission Agency Office of Christian Formation and UKirk are excited to share that the second volume of UWorship will be coming out in September. The prayers and liturgies included were written by Rev. Rachel Penmore (UKirk UTK), John Golden (UKirk ETSU), Rev. Allison Wehrung (UKirk Ole Miss), and Rev. Nathan Wheeler (Zephyr Point).
