Visual Liturgy<\/em> is a software package that enables you to plan and prepare liturgy and worship services.<\/p>\n The Visual Liturgy<\/em> project is run by Church House Publishing<\/a> on behalf of the Archbishops’ Council of the Church of England. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the main editions of Visual Liturgy<\/em> are usually for the Church of England.<\/p>\n Visual Liturgy 4.0<\/em>, the current version, contains all of the Common Worship<\/em> material published in November 2000 including both texts and the Common Worship<\/em> three-year lectionary (as published in the printed Common Worship). It also includes New Patterns for Worship<\/em>, which was published in November 2002. A new edition, Visual Liturgy Live<\/em>, is planned for the Autumn of 2006.<\/p>\n As well as the Anglican editions, there is also an edition for The Methodist Worship Book<\/a> as well as a number of add-on modules to complement the main editions. You can find out more about the different editions and modules in the VLography section<\/a> of this web site.<\/p>\n Put simply, Visual Liturgy<\/em> as a software package, allows you to specify a calendar date and a type of service. The software then identifies what the date is in the church year, finds the right readings, the collect and other items, and displays the complete service.<\/p>\n To find out more about how the software works, have a look at the Software demo section<\/a> of this web site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What is Visual Liturgy?
