 Living Liturgy by LabOra is a major new initiative for the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia. As well as providing a huge collection of liturgical resources, Living Liturgy enables the user to prepare a liturgy and produce it as booklets or a PowerPoint presentation at the click of a mouse.
Living Liturgy by LabOra puts a whole library of liturgical resources onto your own computer, including the entire contents of A New Zealand Prayer Book - He Karakia Mihinare o Aotearoa, Celebrating Common Prayer, Ashes to Fire and For All The Saints, as well as extra resources for prayers, music and clip art. It also contains the entire lectionary, including full scripture texts, and the electronic Bible tools of Libronix.
An annual disk combines all these resources with the liturgical calendar. This will make it easy to prepare liturgies for your parish or ministry unit , making choices on screen and then producing attractive people's booklets/sheets, other printouts of the liturgy, and PowerPoint presentations, for any day of the year. Each year, the annual disk will provide the liturgical calendar (which allows the liturgy preparation software to operate for the current year), and will add new features and resources, along with any updates on existing resources.
“LabOra”comes from the Latin words labor (work) and ora (pray!). Those who prepare liturgical prayer for the people of God will find their work quicker, easier, and more enjoyable.
