When Heaven Stands Open

Liturgical Elements for Reformed Worship

is a series of four liturgical resources: three consisting of liturgical elements for Years A, B, and C of the Revised Common Lectionary, and a fourth, the first such resource to support the implementation of Year D: A Quadrennial Supplement to the Revised Common Lectionary (Cascade Books).

Each volume consists of a Call to Worship, Opening Prayer, Call to Confession, Prayer of Confession, and Declaration of Forgiveness, with Years A-C including additional elements (A Prayer in Preparation for Worship, The Offering, Prayer of Dedication, and A Blessing) suitable for Presbyterian, Reformed, and other Protestant worship.

Each of these practical volumes is intended for use by pastors, liturgists, and other planners and leaders of worship.
