A practical, down-to-earth book which offers guidance for creating unique rites of passage to mark some of life's major milestones, including weddings, child namings, and funerals.The author considers the fundamental purpose of each ceremony and the flow of emotion that it is likely to generate, then offers sample texts to help celebrants to create inclusive and meaningful liturgies appropriate for each individual occasion. The importance of involving families and close friends in the planning of a ceremony is emphasised throughout the book. Each chapter is illustrated by case studies of innovative services created and conducted by Unitarian ministers and lay leaders in recent times.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
