14 Special services Personalised invites can be ordered to cut down on time and effort
15 Special services Personalised banners can also be ordered
16 Special services Personalised banners can also be ordered
17 Host a Street Party Create a team include parish council & other local groups Do it in churchyard (or street, but seek permissions) Advertise widely offer lifts Bring and share meal or organise catering Lots of games, sing songs, entertainment and bouncy castle perhaps Make it free Sing national anthem and offer prayers Lots of bunting, party poppers, hats Give book or bookmarks to each person
18 Liturgy & Worship Choose very well known, uplifting hymns Focus on Queen s faith Consider printing special orders of service Use CPO s pre printed order of service (
19 Liturgy & Worship An outline of the Service of Celebration and Thanksgiving that will be held in St Paul s Cathedral at 11.00am on Friday 10th June to mark the 90th Birthday of HM The Queen, will be available from the beginning of May together with the texts of Prayers and Intercessions from the service.
20 Liturgy & Worship Collects, graces and readings for the Queen s 90 th available (handout) Liturgy for Queen s 80 th available (handout) Other resources also downloadable
21 Liturgy & Worship Anthem for the Queen's 90th Birthday St Paul s Cathedral has commissioned Master of the Queen s Music Judith Weir to create a new anthem for the Queen's 90th birthday. It will be sung by St Paul s Cathedral Choir at the National Service of Thanksgiving here on Friday 10 June. But the Cathedral is not keeping the anthem to itself for a world premiere. The piece has been written to suit both the magnificent choir of St Paul s Cathedral and local amateur choirs - so everyone should feel able to perform it to enjoy an echo of the St Paul s service wherever they are. People will be able to order the anthem from Judith Weir s publisher Chester Novello to perform at their own local services or concerts to celebrate the Queen s birthday. Scores may be preordered (contact Chester Novello for more details) and will be available from early to mid May.
22 Liturgy & Worship Music Sunday: The Royal School of Church Music (RSCM) is encouraging its members and volunteers across the country to join in celebration the Queen's 90th birthday by holding their Music Sunday on 12th June. Churches and communities around the UK and overseas will join in celebrating this event with music and hymns.
23 Other ideas Invite residents or school children to ring the church bell once each an afternoon of bellringing for the Queen (intersperse with prayers) Host in church a Royal memorabilia display - get local community to contribute Host an evening of Royal music organ, CD, brass band intersperse with prayers and words about her faith by the Queen Show the BBC documentary Elizabeth at 90 a family tribute in church follow it by bubbles and cake and a few prayers
24 Other ideas Organise an oral history project record local peoples memories of the Queen. Play it on constant loop in the church when open during June Host an exhibition of what life in your community was like 90 years ago ask the community to contribute stories, pictures etc Do a 90 year challenge - find 90 people in your community, one born every year of the Queen s life tell their story with photo display. Have a Queen s 90 th Flower festival Have a Royal Bake Off competition best Queen s birthday cake wins
25 THE QUEEN AND THE KING SHE SERVES
26 The Brief Produce a resource that children in churches and schools could use as they celebrate the Queen s 90 th birthday. It should help children to understand the roles of the Queen. It should include Bible passages which reflect these roles. It should include an opportunity for children to contribute meaningfully to a Celebration service It should include activities which Messy Churches can use in their celebrations.
