The Synod also resolved, that in future revisions of our Common Prayer Book, more emphasis be given to permissive forms and less to mandatory forms of public worship, in order that in the use of one common book, we may still achieve that flexibility and variety we deem desirable. And that in the meantime General Synod be asked to give guidance to diocesan authorities in relaxing the rigid conformist notes still written into our Common Prayer Book. By these and other resolutions the General Synod channelled and directed a movement for liturgical change which already existed, and inaugurated a period of experiment, evaluation, and change. Between 1974 and 1978, the Doctrine and Worship Committee produced the Canadian Anglican Liturgical Series, composed of the following publications: Christian Initiation (1974), The Holy Eucharist (1974), Institution and Induction (1974), Christian Initiation: Study Document (1975), Thanksgiving for Birth or Adoption (1978), Celebration and Blessing of a Marriage (1978). This series constituted the first step in the implementation of the resolutions of the General Synod of 1971 which related to the area of liturgy. On 23 June 1980, the Doctrine and Worship Committee submitted a new collection of liturgical texts to the General Synod, including a new form of the eucharist, Third Canadian Eucharist (1979). Most of these texts were approved (either explicitly or tacitly), some with the conditions of further negotiation and editing. They were subsequently published as The Lectionary (1980), Calendar of the Church Year (1981), Holy Eucharist: Third Canadian Order (1981), Alternative Ordinal (1982), and Holy Week (1982). A new form for the Celebration and Blessing of a Marriage was published in 1982. The 1980 General Synod made two other significant decisions Introduction 7 regarding the liturgy of the Church. First, it rejected a proposal to proceed with the preparation of a revised Book of Common Prayer. Second, it directed the Doctrine and Worship Committee, to proceed with the development of a book of alternative services, comprised of the commonly used services in the present Canadian Anglican Liturgical Series, revised where necessary, together with similar other services, for presentation to the next General Synod. By these two actions the General Synod committed the Anglican Church of Canada, for the time being at least, to a pattern found also in the Church of England and the Anglican Church of Australia, in which the traditional rites of the Church coexist with contemporary and alternative rites. This Book of Alternative Services is therefore not a new Book of Common Prayer and does not replace it. In 1983, the Doctrine and Worship Committee returned to the General Synod with a draft Book of Alternative Services which required further editing and revision. The General Synod authorized the committee to complete its task and to take the book to the National Executive Council for permission to publish for use, where permitted by the diocesan bishop, at least until the thirty-second General Synod (scheduled for 1989). It may be seen from this brief history that the Book of Alternative Services, now presented for use, reflects more than fourteen years of continuous research, experimentation, criticism, and evaluation. This task has involved not only a succession of committees but a vast number of worshippers, lay people as well as clergy, who have worked in the movement for liturgical change. Liturgical change is sometimes treated as a phenomenon unique to the twentieth century, a counter-current in the flow of Anglican piety. The truth is that the distinctive ethos of Anglicanism emerged in a period of reformation which was characterized by even greater liturgical change than our own. This comparison of the present day with the Reformation era is important for an understanding of the contemporary liturgical scene. The spirit of reformation is neither anarchic nor destructive, but is rooted in the conviction that in times of great insecurity and change the centre cannot be held by a blind preservation of the forms in which tradition has been received, but only through diligent and passionate search for fresh expressions and 8 Introduction evocations of the tradition. The wonder is not that so many twentieth century Christians are open to change but that the experiments of the Reformation era appeared to be treated as definitive for nearly four centuries. The gospel always has a reforming, reinterpreting edge to it, and the gospel is always the proper subject of the liturgy. While there is a strong correspondence between the dynamics of the Reformation era and the present day, there is considerable difference in detail, rising from different perspectives in the Church’s understanding of itself and the world around it. The Reformation of the sixteenth century occurred at a time when Church and State enjoyed a relationship of comfortable interdependence (although the very political forces that embraced the Reformation were at the same time producing new and secular forms of government, which would eventually marginalize the Church). Christianity in its totality belonged to a known world and existed, with rare exceptions, where it enjoyed the protection of Christian princes. The goal of both Church and State was a stable society in which the place of all was known and maintained. Theological and apostolic movements in subsequent centuries track the response of the Church to its changing context. The missionary movement in the seventeenth century and the Sunday School movement a century later both reflect a new attitude in Anglicans to the notion of unchanging boundaries, whether within the structure of society or in relation to a world beyond the borders of Christendom.

  • Q: What Is the Chrism Mass? A: Generally Once a Year, the Bishop
    Q: What is the Chrism Mass? A: Generally once a year, the bishop, joined by the priests of the diocese, gather at St. John’s Cathedral to celebrate the Chrism Mass. This Mass manifests the unity of the priests with their bishop, and it serves to supply the diocese with the necessary sacred oils — the oil of catechumens (oleum catechumenorum or oleum sanctorum), the oil of the infirm (oleum infirmorum) and holy chrism (sacrum chrisma) — which will be used in the administration of the sacraments throughout the diocese for the year. This tradition is rooted in the early Church as noted in the Gelasian Sacramentary (named after Pope Gelasius I, d. 496). Throughout the Bible, various references indicate the importance of olive oil in daily life. Sacred Scripture also attests to the spiritual symbolism of oil. Given this heritage, the early Church adopted the use of olive oil for its sacramental rituals. The Oil of Catechumens is used in connection with the sacrament of baptism. St. Hippolytus, in his Apostolic Tradition (A.D. 215), wrote of an “oil of exorcism” used to anoint the candidates immediately before baptism. This practice continues: In the current baptismal liturgy, the priest offers the prayer of exorcism and then with the oil of catechumens anoints the person to be baptized on the chest, saying, “We anoint you with the oil of salvation in the name of Christ our Savior; may He strengthen you with His power, Who lives and reigns forever and ever.” The oil of the infirm is used in the sacrament of the anointing of the sick (formerly known as extreme unction).

  • A Short History of the Western Rite Vicariate
    A Short History of the Western Rite Vicariate Benjamin Joseph Andersen, B.Phil, M.Div. HE Western Rite Vicariate of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America was founded in 1958 by Metropolitan Antony Bashir (1896–1966) with the Right Reverend Alex- T ander Turner (1906–1971), and the Very Reverend Paul W. S. Schneirla. The Western Rite Vicariate (WRV) oversees parishes and missions within the Archdiocese that worship according to traditional West- ern Christian liturgical forms, derived either from the Latin-speaking Churches of the first millenium, or from certain later (post-schismatic) usages which are not contrary to the Orthodox Faith. The purpose of the WRV, as originally conceived in 1958, is threefold. First, the WRV serves an ecumeni- cal purpose. The ideal of true ecumenism, according to an Orthodox understanding, promotes “all efforts for the reunion of Christendom, without departing from the ancient foundation of our One Orthodox Church.”1 Second, the WRV serves a missionary and evangelistic purpose. There are a great many non-Orthodox Christians who are “attracted by our Orthodox Faith, but could not find a congenial home in the spiritual world of Eastern Christendom.”2 Third, the WRV exists to be witness to Orthodox Christians themselves to the universality of the Or- thodox Catholic Faith – a Faith which is not narrowly Byzantine, Hellenistic, or Slavic (as is sometimes assumed by non-Orthodox and Orthodox alike) but is the fulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for all men, in all places, at all times. In the words of Father Paul Schneirla, “the Western Rite restores the nor- mal cultural balance in the Church.

  • The Divine Office
    THE DIVINE OFFICE BRO. EMMANUEL NUGENT, 0. P. PIRITUAL life must be supplied by spiritual energy. An efficient source of spiritual energy is prayer. From Holy Scripture we learn that we should pray always. li In general, this signifies that whatever we do should be done for the honor and glory of God. In a more restricted sense, it requires that each day be so divided that at stated in­ tervals we offer to God acts of prayer. From a very early period it has been the custom of the Church, following rather closely the custom that prevailed among the Chosen People, and later among the Apostles and early Christians, to arrange the time for her public or official prayer as follows: Matins and Lauds (during the night), Prime (6 A.M.), Tierce (9 A.M.), Sext (12M.), None (3 P.M.), Vespers (6 .P. M.), Compline (nightfall). The Christian day is thus sanc­ tified and regulated and conformed to the verses of the Royal Psalmist: "I arose at midnight to give praise to Thee" (Matins), "Seven times a day have I given praise to Thee"1 (Lauds and the remaining hours). Each of the above divisions of the Divine Office is called, in liturgical language, an hour, conforming to the Roman and Jewish third, sixth, and ninth hour, etc. It is from this division of the day that the names are given to the various groups of prayers or hours recited daily by the priest when he reads his breviary. It is from the same source that has come the name of the service known to the laity as Sunday Vespers, and which constitutes only a portion of the Divine Office for that day.

  • The Sign of Peace the Mass in Slow Motion
    The Mass In Slow Motion Volume 22 The Sign of Peace The Mass In Slow Motion is a series on the Mass explaining the meaning and history of what we do each Sunday. This series of flyers is an attempt to add insight and understanding to our celebration of the Sacred Liturgy. This series will follow the Mass in order beginning with The Gathering Rite through The Final Blessing and Dismissal, approximately 25 volumes. Previous editions are available via the rectory office or our website: www.hcscchurch.org. The Rite of Peace follows the “Our Father” and the prayer “Lord Jesus Christ you said to your Apostles, „I leave you peace…‟, by which the Church asks for peace and unity for herself and for the whole human family, and the faithful express to each other their ecclesial communion and mutual charity before communicating in the Sacrament. The manner of expressing this sign of peace is established by Conferences of Bishops in accordance with the culture and customs of the peoples. It is, however, appropriate that each person offer the sign of peace only to those who are nearest and in a sober manner. (cf G.I.R.M. # 82) Other instructions in the Missal indicate that exchange of peace is shared “if appropriate” and that the celebrant “gives the sign of peace to a deacon or minister.” The instruction adds that the priest may give the sign of peace to the ministers but always remains within the sanctuary, so as not to disturb the celebration. Hence, we learn some of the following things about the sign of peace: 1.
