A090 Authorization of 1979 Book of Common Prayer
The 1979 Book of Common Prayer was memorialized by General Convention Resolution 2018-A068, “ensuring its continued use.” Our proposed canonical change would continue to ensure continued use of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, providing it with a clear and stable place in our Church’s worship. Like the memorialization of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, this resolution is proposed in anticipation of future additions to and amendments of the Book of Common Prayer as provided for in Article X of the Constitution of The Episcopal Church.
