There are two ways to be apart of the Anabaptist Worship Exchange community. All you need to do is create your own user profile by clicking the "Join" tab on the right hand side. An account is required to download or contribute resources. 

Local pastors and leaders can search through the database of resources based on scripture passages, days of the lectionary, or topics. Simply click search and select the parameters from the drop down menus. The resources will automatically filter based on each request. When you have found the resources you would like to use in your congregation, click "Download Now!" at the top right. If you decide to use the resource, please be sure to attribute the text, video, song, or image to to its creator. 

Any user can also share original resources with the AWE community. Click the "Add a Resource" tab on the right, and begin selecting the appropriate file type, scripture reference, lectionary date, and tags. Please be sure to include a short description before you upload the resource. Add as much information as possible ensures other users can locate your resource through any search criteria. When you click "Add this Resource Now!" you will be asked to affirm that all the content you are sharing is your own original work and does not include materials that may be under current copyright restrictions. 

And finally, remember sharing is good. If you use or contribute a resource to AWE be sure to let people know through all your social media outlets! Spread the word!
