Visions and Voices: Resources for Intergenerational Worship is the second resource arising from collaboration between Intergen (formerly the VCCE) and the Centre for Theology and Ministry (CTM).

Featuring multiple Music Resource suggestions and Bible Focus ideas, Calls to Worship and Confession Prayers, these ideas can be used at any time of the year – noting, though, they were originally written to align with the Year B readings of the Revised Common Lectionary for the weeks following Pentecost.
