The Eucharist:
_{An Anglican liturgy in the Tradition of the Ecclesia Anglicana}

The Eucharist is an Anglican liturgy that uses the 1662 Book of Common Prayer form with devotional additions from the Sarum Rite.
The former has been the use of the church since the 16th century; the latter the centuries which preceded it.
The source material comes from 1892, 1928, 1662 Books of Common Prayer, as well as English translations of the Sarum Rite. It is designed primarily for use with the 1662: International Edition, the 2019 ACNA Traditional Language Edition Books of Common Prayer, with an option aligning to the 1928 American edition.

Service Cards for the
Book of Common Prayer
(1928, 1662ie 2019tle, 2019)

These altar service cards are intended to serve a mnemonic aids for the portions a priest or deacon would use when he is facing the people in ad orientem celebration, including the exhortation to communion. With these and a Holy Gospel book, one would not need to pick up the altar book or carry an extra prayer book at the altar. One of the cards includes a woodcut from a Percy Dearmer altar book, which is intended look seemly on the altar (if cards are not laid flat), and can be held as a decent cover to the cards when facing the people.

Selections of Psalms

While the 1662IE Book of Common Prayer is in many ways superior to the 1928 Book of Common Prayer in terms of user-friendliness, it does lack a few things. One flagged recently is the “Selections of Psalms” on page ix of the 1928 BCP. Provided here is a PDF with similar font/typography to the 1662IE, sized for 4x6 to be kept in the BCP: [PDF download]

This liturgy is for pastoral use in a local congregation, wherein a desirous candidate by reaffirmation of baptismal vows and the teaching of the Church (as expected in confirmation), is publicly welcomed as a full member of the local parish or congregation. If the member has not received the Chrism used in a Baptismal liturgy, it is offered, regularising non-confirmed baptised Christians with the baptismal chrism. This supplies two expectations in 20th century prayer book liturgies: that a communicant be anointed Holy Chrism following baptism (which is an ancient prerequisite found in East and West, with no firm agreement on age, faculty, or maturity¹), and that the communicant “be ready and desirous to be confirmed.”More practically, this offers a public, formal declaration of membership (and therefore is eligible for ministry participation/leadership, vestry, lay licensure). Membership in this context is public affirmation and personal reception of those things which are the formal teaching of the Church.² This is the same declaration as found in the confirmation liturgy, but since not all who have been confirmed presently adhere to the teaching of the Church, such may become a safety measure for the local membership. No part is written to conflict with Confirmation or Baptism, whether in liturgical redundancy or in theology.The rational for this liturgy is as follows:

As written this regularizes concerns related to confirmation and communion in those churches that welcome baptized Christians to the communion table. More importantly it allows churches a formal procedure for recognizing those who desire membership and therefore would be eligible for service in the church, whether already confirmed or awaiting confirmation

Notes

About The Eucharistic Liturgy

Originally inspired by the Antiochian Western Rite Orthodox Missal and The Anglican Service Book, this work is an edited altar book & Holy Communion liturgy that incorporates portions of the Sarum Rite into the 1662 Eucharistic form, yet with the prayers from 1928. It is first and foremost a project undertaken for my own personal learning and prayer; I am releasing what I've assembled to share with the few that might be similarly edified.
Expected Use
The result is that The Eucharist liturgy can be used with parishes that have either the new 1662:International Edition BCP, or the 1928 BCP, but with some supplementary Sarum devotional elements, mostly by the priest at the altar. The former is one of the most accessible prayer books on market, lightly updating the language of the authoritative prayer book for millions of global Anglicans, including the continuing church.¹ The latter is the received, authoritative Prayer Book for Continuing Anglicans in America.This liturgy is prepared for a single celebrant's book that fits three paradigms: church plant use, small parish, and cathedral, according to Luther's formulation in the Order for Divine Mass. A more aesthetically formal setting would use all the Anglo-Catholic/Sarum options (aloud, or in secret, as in the Ghanaian Eucharist), yet in a smaller parish one might use only the 1662/1928 Prayer Book portions. It is for use in jurisdictions that have authorized the 1928 and 1662 Books of Common Prayer; one may skip the Sarum options provided if such use is prohibited by one’s ordinary.
Editorial Intentions
The prayer book is the authoritative text, and covers far more than just a Sunday Holy Communion service. Indeed, every parish should have a prayer book in use by the people. While printed booklets may suffice for visitors, any Eucharistic liturgy must connect with a prayer book that is taken home and used for prayer and devotion throughout the week.
The liturgies here are intended to pair with IVP's 1662 BCP: IE, ACNA's 2019 - TLE, The Anglican Office Book, the 1928 BCP, or the The Anglican Service Book.I took care to avoid adding elements that the Prayer Book already adequately states, albeit more succinctly. Concision was preferred over redundancy when combining two historically standalone liturgies; consequently, there are relatively few Sarum additions to the Prayer Book liturgy. The 1662 or 1928 Prayer Books are not deficient. At worst the 1662 BCP is distilled to the core essentials thereby retaining a providential minimum for worship and sacrament.
For the Sarum portion, I edited from four different public domain English translations² taking care to select prayers/phrasings that seemed to align well with Prayer Book sensibility, and changing the translator's wording as little as possible. I do not claim to be an expert, so I relied on the translations of these better Anglicans. The epiclesis is from Percy Dearmer's editorial insight in his The Sanctuary, a lesser-known lay manual for the 1662 Holy Communion, where it is employed as a private prayer as part of the Prayer of Consecration, before the words of institution, and placed in the text just after the Prayer of Humble Access. It is the only non-English/non-Sarum piece in it. The aim is that, like the ethos found in The Anglican Service Book, the prayer book proper remains authoritative, and these elements are added as one might add a hymn, missal devotion, or extemporaneous prayer (as noted in Readiness and Decency, pp 27-30). Artwork is from my personal copy of Percy Dearmer's The English Liturgy.
BYOKalendar
Collects according to the Book of Common Prayer are included.
No Kalendar, secret, post-communion, etc. are provided.
The Anglican Missal or The Western Rite Book of Common Prayer provide secret, communion, and post-communion sentences.
The Anglican Office Book's Kalendar or the Ordinariate Commonwealth Edition would suit well for supplementary feast days.
The use of this book expects a separate gospel book, and so inline readings are excluded.
Answers to Criticism
Some tension is expected, since most self-described Anglo-Catholics seem to have an allergy to 1662 BCP, even though it is permissible to use in the Anglican Communion, Continuum, and ACNA. Further, many 1662 BCP-adherents are more rigid about liturgical additions than Anglo-Catholics, even as no prayers newer than the prayer book itself are here included. In the last hundred years many liturgical options have become available (Various missals, Anglican Service Book, BAS, ACNA-TLE, Common Worship), so those wanting flexibility already have it. However, to my knowledge none integrate Sarum prayers into the historic, authoritative 1662 liturgy as this edition does. This stresses the continuity of the church preceding 1549 with that which proceeded from it. As the Oxford Movement made prominent, the Catholic Church in Britain has been in existence from the early centuries of the church, through the medieval and reformation periods, and continues today.
I have taken care to present devotional additions that depend upon the Prayer Book's validity and authority, incorporating valuable prayers of the church we have always had, but have let gather dust. It is also expected, like any via media integration, that it will make a few from every party unhappy.
As always, these have not been formally approved by your ordinary, so if you use these texts, consider the Catholic additions secret/silent devotional and informational rather than ceremonial. With this in mind, and following the Prayer Book-only options, these altar books are usable in jurisdictions that permit 1928, 1662, or ACNA liturgies.Anglican Church in North America
Included is a service order for Anglican Church in North America's 2019 Book of Common Prayer, Traditional Language Edition, which also uses 1928 prayer forms as its foundation, with differences primarily found in the collects. ACNA collects as well as historic collects are included. This edition is the first available Anglican Missal (being a Prayer Book service with minimal Missal Additions) using traditional prayers formatted for ACNA use, and the only one to follow the 1662 Order of Service.Update: 2023
A 2023 revised edition now organizes and integrates the prayers to enable an officiant to lead services from 1662:International Edition, 2019: Traditional Language Edition, or 1928 American Prayer Books from one book.

This edition notes page references for 1662IE alongside the historic 1-year lectionary, alongside comparative notes where 1662 differs from 1928 and 2019.Note that while designed to serve as an Altar Book for a parish using the 1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition, no material contained in this uses the 1662:IE. As such there will be minor differences in punctuation, capitalization, but not significant in terms of leading a congregation with the prayers.Prayer Book prayers come from the 1928 or prior Authorized editions (1892, 1662, 1637) or when noted 2019-tle, but have been ordered and annotated with 1662:IE page numbers as well as aligning 1928/1662 rubrics with the 1662:IE's presentation according to Appendix III.

Service Cards for The Eucharist

Prayer Cards for the Holy Communion

These altar service cards are intended to serve a mnemonic aids for the portions a priest or deacon would use when he is facing the people in ad orientem celebration, including the exhortation to communion. With these and a Holy Gospel book, one would not need to pick up the altar book or carry an extra prayer book at the altar. One of the cards includes a woodcut from a Percy Dearmer altar book, which is intended look seemly on the altar (if cards are not laid flat), and can be held as a decent cover to the cards when facing the people.

The service card set consists of 4 double-sided cards, which include prayers for four Prayer Books with page references: 1928, 2019, 2019-Traditional Language Edition, and the new 1662: International Edition. The 1928 card is also suitable for 1979 BCP Rite I excluding the “Word of God” phrase in the Comfortable Words; the 1979 exhortation is too different to account for...The two 1928/2019TLE/1662IE cards are professionally printed on triple-thick premium card stock. The 2019 and 2019/2019TLE Exhortations are on lighter—but still heavy—matte-laminate card stock.
Both are durable enough for regular use.

If you are in the USA,
• Send $10 or more, and we will send you a set of the ACNA 2019 BCP cards. These cards are a limited run, and are available while there is stock.

• Send $15 or more, and we will send you a set of the 1928/1662 cards. These are also set for 2019 TLE with the exception of the exhortation.

• Send $20 or more, and we will send 1928/1662 and 2019 together. NB: use of the ACNA 2019TLE Exhortation requires a set of 1928 and ACNA (cf. comparison of exhortations.).

These ceremonial guides are republished here with the hope “that priest and people may worship with undisturbed recollection, and that the ways of the minister may help, not hinder, the devotion both of the congregation and of himself.” (ATLT, p.65)Readiness and Decency is one of the more concise ceremonial guides for a traditional Prayer Book Service. It was written before the Canadian revision of 1962, but as such serves as an excellent Prayer Book Catholic ceremonial guide for those using the 1928 American, 1928 English Proposed, 1662, 1662: International Edition, as well as, with some service order adjustments, the 2019 revisions of the Book of Common Prayer. Of particular interest is the ceremonial instruction for North End Celebration, once ubiquitous and now almost entirely in disuse. Some parishes are beginning to use the 1662: International Edition with North End, so this work may have increased contemporary usefulness.
This text is also available for download from the Prayer Book Society Canada, who have made available PDF downloads of the 1946 edition and 1961 expanded revision.At the Lord’s Table is an obscure (and very out of print) practical manual for an Anglo-Catholic celebration of mass, utilising the English Missal or 1662 BCP with Catholic additions, and is useful for any Anglo-Catholic mass, adjusting according to one’s Missal or Prayer Book. Unlike a work such as Ritual Notes, this is very practical, and expects a small group at the altar. Of particular note is the Common Mistakes sections, which give a humorous snapshot of various mistakes ministers have made, and ways in which one can avoid distracting the worshippers.PDF Available here_{Released on Feast of the Conversion of St Paul, © 2023}
