They Shall Grow Not Old contains a range of services developed from the official Remembrancetide resources published by the liturgical authorities of the British Isles. It includes:

a simple remembrance ceremony
a formal ceremony at a war memorial
a service for Remembrance Sunday
a veterans' service
a Remembrance service with a Eucharist
a parade service
and other related occasions that all parish clergy may be asked to conduct. No formal denominational services exist for many of these occasions and so this fills a real gap.

As well as complete services, it contains a wide range of greetings, biddings, opening prayers, confessions, intercessions, litanies, blessings as well as Bible readings printed out in full, so that civilian clergy and armed forces chaplains may create customized services according to local need.

This volume was produced in association with the Royal Army Chaplains' Department, building on the work of the Joint Liturgical Group (Churches Together in Britain and Ireland), the Liturgical Commission of the Church of England, the Panel on Worship of the Church of Scotland, and the Royal British Legion. This book would be useful throughout Britain, Ireland and the Commonwealth.
