The Book of Common Prayer
A permanent feature of the Church of England's worship and a key
source for its doctrine, the Book of Common Prayer is
loved for the beauty of its language and its services are widely
used.
The Prayer Book Society has produced a series of videos which
can be used by anyone seeking guidance on how to conduct services
according to the Book of Common Prayer. These are on the Society's own site.
