book!
It's true Episcopalians
base a large share of every
worship service on ' The
Book of Common Prayer." a
very UNcommon piece of
literature.
The word "common. " in
this instance, means "to
gether." Most churches use
a hymnal because they want
to sing together. Episco
palians use a prayer book,
too. because they like to
pray together. No one is ever
asked to "lead in prayer. "
but each finds ample oppor
tunity during the service to
frame his own private
prayers.
To those who decry writ
ten prayers. Episcopalians
point out that The Lord's
Prayer is just that , and yet
Its meaning to every Chris
tian IS undimmed by Its
being reproduced in print.
They believe there's good
reason for following the
Prayer Book s carefully-
planned schedule and form
of services throughout the
Christian year For one
thing, an individual church
IS thus spared from becom
ing mired in its minister s
hang ups Pretty good
point, these days?
