Hi Kay:
I didn't hear the word "paperless" until I'd been with my Eucharistic Community (non-Anglican) that I worship with on Sunday evenings for about a year and I realized "hey, that's mostly us." We're mainly nominal Roman Catholics and former R…
Richard (or any of the rest of you) tell me more about how you make paperless work.
We have been trying to figure out how to go paperless for the season of Pentecost or maybe just for the summer. It is partly a desire to stop using so much paper, a…
Hi All:
First off, like Malcolm, I'm also new to Anglimergent. I've been an Episcopalian all of my adult life, but took some time off to worship and work with non-Episcopalian communities (spent a year or so in an ELCA church and have been worshipi…
I want to thank everyone who commented. Excellent stuff.
The last comment by Deanne Gibbs-Brown hit closest to what I was ineptly asking. "What to bring along?" What things about the structure of say, the Eucharist, removed from specific prayers, i…
I love the BCP structure, as I am a cradle Episcopalian. BUT the language is often so male dominant/empire building... that it interrupts my ability to pray. I have to stop and re-center and pray 'in-spite-of' the soul crushing words.
I am looking f…
I think that it's always useful to make sure that one is using the resources at hand fully before trying to reinvent them--I often find that when I try to reinvent somehting, I actually find it somewhere I haven't looked yet--there's still plenty of…
The practice at St. Peter's, Seattle is currently to make the prayer book liturgy the touchstone for our common liturgical life. Sunday mornings are BCP Rite II Eucharist with a twinge of Anglocatholic sacramentality and a dash of Evangelical passio…
I don't know if it's cheating that we know each other, but it *is* an excellent discussion point! I am madly in love with the structure of the BCP, but there is a lot in that one little book that remains unexplored in traditional liturgical services…
Hi Malcolm,
The BCP for me is a symbol - not to be taken too seriously, but used as a measure for 'new' liturgies.
Before I got to my current post (vicar in rural BC) I was in England, and never used the BCP. The anacronism was just too vivid. Now I…
First off, since I'm new to anglimergent, let me introduce myself briefly.
I'm Malcolm Heath, and I'm a lay person, a nearly lifelong Episcopalian, and an active member of my parish, Sts. Peter and Paul's Episcopal in Portland, Oregon. In other pla…
It seems to me that twitter can be used in a number of different contexts to greater or lesser effect.
I've seen it used to great effect when there is a hashtag for a particular conference, or even better, a specific session of a conference or other…

An open question - the BCP, new services, adaptation, creation and tradition
First off, since I'm new to anglimergent, let me introduce myself briefly.
