This is a collection of Sacred Readings from the world's great spiritual traditions. Some are readings collected on a certain subject but do not record the sermon while others have, at times, extensive additional materials and/or a transcript of the actual sermon delivered.

Please enjoy these inspiring readings and contribute new sets of readings or additional materials on those present via email. If you are fluent in another language besides english and would like to create this archive in that language, your efforts would be greatly appriciated.

It is my hope that this work will help to form a foundation of support and tradition for the cherags of future generations and aid in the strengthening of the church and be a unifying force to bind Cherags world wide to our one and common Cause. One of the services is posted to the cheraglibrary list server email group once a week, usually on sudays. If you would like to join this mail group  go to cheraglibrary

Contributions are best sent as email or set up your own page of readings and I will link to it. Contact me at
