Bold indicates available or coming in Logos; not everything available is in bold. This list is not comprehensive but rather a quick first cut. Note that the Anglican rite has its roots in the Sarum rite rather than the Roman rite and that it has returned recently into the Catholic fold as the Anglican-use rite. Sorry that some limits of the time line program make it a nuisance to print as a PDF.

 

 

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Wow, that's quite a list! They've definitely been busy singing a new song to the Lord or at least publishing books about when to sing the old ones :).

    Thanks MJ

    Wow, they're only picking up a tiny percentage of the common prayer books.
    I had no idea there were so many.

    Is there any scope for this collection to include some of the later English revisions? In particular we have our own 1928 Prayer book, which was never formally authorised but which was hugely influential. Some of it is still authorised (as 'Series 1' for those who care about the legal niceties!). The best known example is surely the wedding service used a couple of weeks ago in Westminster Abbey...

    I'm sure that any of the later Church of England resources (Series 1, 2 & 3, ASB, now Common Worship) would be harder to include, and are harder to compare with the BCP as they take an entirely different approach to a 'service book' idea; but the 1928 BCP is highly significant in illustrating and shaping the course of the Church of England's liturgy through the 19th and 20th centuries.

    Is there an appropriate forum to make this suggestion?

    Ooooh.... that Oxford Guide listed as the very last item looks like at minimum something that should be /could be added to the current offering.  

    Hmm Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.
