Prayer Book 101 is an introduction to The Book of Common Prayer, 2019 which is the official prayer book of the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA). This class focuses on how to use the Prayer Book for both common and private prayer and is a good introduction to liturgical worship for those who do not come from a liturgical tradition. Topics include The Daily Office (Morning and Evening Prayer), the foundations of liturgical worship, the theology of the sacraments, the two eucharistic liturgies (Anglican Standard and Ancient Renewed), liturgies for Holy Baptism, Confirmation, Holy Matrimony, and other pastoral rites, the Church liturgical calendar and major feast days. Participants should purchase a copy of The Book of Common Prayer, 2019, available in St. Peter’s Bookstore.
