Seven Weeks for Water 2010: Holy Water
The weekly meditations for the seven weeks of Lent are a way of trying to raise awareness of water and justice around World Water Day on 22 March. Each week during Lent a short biblical meditation will be posted here along with some campaigning links and ideas.
In 2010 the theme of the 7 Weeks was “Holy Water”. We explored what the meaning and use of water in our liturgical traditions can tell us about the meaning and use of water in our everyday life? And vice versa - how can the reality of water today, including the crisis of water, inform and inspire our liturgical use of water?
Liturgical resources for the Seven Weeks for Water 2010:
- “Water in the desert” – Order of Service for the Fifth Sunday of Lent (21 March 2010)
- “Water, Passion and Betrayal” - An order of Communion for Maundy Thursday
- Please also download our World Water Day tool kit with more ideas and resources for activities around World Water Day on 22nd March.
