    The Holy Eucharist Rite One INTRODUCTION This Morning We Are Going to Depart from Our Usual Worship

    The Holy Eucharist Rite One INTRODUCTION This morning we are going to depart from our usual worship. As we celebrate the Holy Eucharist today, we are going to examine the different parts of the service and explain them as we go along. Our aim is to help us better understand the worship and help us to participate more fully in the Holy Eucharist. The Holy Eucharist is the principle act of Christian worship. As we proceed, we will pause for explanation of why we are doing what we are doing. There will be some historic and some theological explanations. This is a departure from our usual worship but hopefully it will help us all better appreciate and understand the richness of our liturgy. Vestments priest will vest as you talk The vestments the priest wears are derived from dress clothing of the late Roman Empire. The white outer garment is called an alb. It gets its name from the Latin word albus, which means white. It is derived from the commonest under garment in classical Italy, the tunic. It symbolizes purity, decency and propriety. It also represents being washed clean in the waters of baptism. The girdle or cincture is usually made of white linen or hemp. Functionally, it is for ease of movement when wearing the alb. Symbolically, it represents how we are all bound together in Christ. The stole was derived from a Roman ceremonial garland or scarf worn by Roman officials as an indication of his rank. Priests have worn the stole since at least the fourth century.

    Holy Communion, Anglican Standard Text, 1662 Order FINAL

    Concerning the Service Holy Communion is normally the principal service of Christian worship on the Lord’s Day, and on other appointed Feasts and Holy Days. Two forms of the liturgy, commonly called the Lord’s Supper or the Holy Eucharist, are provided. The Anglican Standard Text is essentially that of the Holy Communion service of the Book of Common Prayer of 1662 and successor books through 1928, 1929 and 1962. The Anglican Standard Text is presented in contemporary English and in the order for Holy Communion that is common, since the late twentieth century, among ecumenical and Anglican partners worldwide. The Anglican Standard Text may be conformed to its original content and ordering, as in the 1662 or subsequent books; the Additional Directions give clear guidance on how this is to be accomplished. Similarly, there are directions given as to how the Anglican Standard Text may be abbreviated where appropriate for local mission and ministry. The Renewed Ancient Text is drawn from liturgies of the Early Church, reflects the influence of twentieth century ecumenical consensus, and includes elements of historic Anglican piety. A comprehensive collection of Additional Directions concerning Holy Communion is found after the Renewed Ancient Text: The order of Holy Communion according to the Book of Common Prayer 1662 The Anglican Standard Text may be re-arranged to reflect the 1662 ordering as follows: The Lord’s Prayer The Collect for Purity The Decalogue The Collect of the Day The Lessons The Nicene Creed The Sermon The Offertory The Prayers of the People The Exhortation The Confession and Absolution of Sin The Comfortable Words The Sursum Corda The Sanctus The Prayer of Humble Access The Prayer of Consecration and the Ministration of Communion (ordered according to the footnote) The Lord’s Prayer The Post Communion Prayer The Gloria in Excelsis The Blessing The precise wording of the ACNA text and rubrics are retained as authorized except in those places where the text would not make grammatical sense.
