The Tome of Communalist Self-Adulation (2021)

Not that I care but ...

• 2015-A169: “Requires the Standing Commission on Liturgy and Music (SCLM) to prepare a plan for the comprehensive revision of the current Book of Common Prayer and present that plan to the 79th General Convention.”
• 2015-D060: “Establish a Process for the Revision of the Hymnal 1982″

So today ...

3-5 pm: Imagining a New Prayer Book: A Forum with the Rev. Dr. Ruth Meyers

The 2015 General Convention called for a plan for revision of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer that will “utilize the riches of our Church’s liturgical, cultural, racial, generational, linguistic, gender and ethnic diversity in order to share common worship.” Join us to explore the possibilities and challenges for Prayer Book revision. What should change? What should be added? What should we keep? We’ll consider how a new prayer book can enable the Episcopal Church to gather and form faithful disciples in the 21st century, and how our common worship can express and shape our participation in the mission of God.

A book for all and (consequently) for none.
