Liturgies from Below

To inspire a new vocabulary for worship and prayer, Liturgies from Below provides diverse resources gathered from forgotten places, amplifying the voices, experiences and perspectives of marginalised communities. It originates from a CWM Programme “Re-Imagining Worship as Acts of Defiance and Alternatives in the Context of Empire” where individuals from four continents - Asia-Pacific Islands, Africa, Americas, and Europe – lived within oppressed, impoverished communities dealing with a plethora of issues before creating indigenous prayers and liturgies reflecting these contexts. Liturgies from Below offers a rich resource for those seeking alternative, hope-filled approaches to worship amidst issues of violence, poverty, militarisation, climate change, drugs, immigration and refugees and more.

This book takes a dive into the experience of the church unfolding in various contexts, with language created amidst these struggles, naming injustice and calling for God’s justice. Readers will encounter and relate to vibrant expressions of faith, with prayers and songs arising from the power of life itself, forging new paths of shared existence.
