The Compleat Book of Common Prayer, Abridged
10/19/2023Zoom
We recently wrapped a series on the book of Psalms, and participants asked for resources around the Book of Common Prayer. Join Rev. Kevin and others online via Zoom for a fun review of the riches of our prayer tradition and what it means to be Episcopalian. Each session takes a tour of part of the Book of Common Prayer to see how it organizes part of our common spiritual life. Register here. (Registration required.)
