In support of our community life at Saint Brendan’s, we have two new resources available to you. The first is our corporate liturgy, Our Worship. The second is our corporate prayer, The Breviary. Why these two books? While we receive our denominational and episcopal cover through the Anglican Church in North America, many people in our fellowship are not Anglicans. Our call was never to turn the members of Saint Brendan’s into Anglicans, but to introduce our members to the Church’s rich heritage of worship and prayer—those two things that stand at the very heart of Christian life and discipline. Visitors to the Priory House are well aware that these resources have been ’works in progress’ for 18 years! And while these two books are grounded on previous versions of the Book of Common Prayer, they have also been developed with a view toward those things that are fully evangelical, extremely conscious of the ’shape of the liturgy’, and anticipatory of the move of the Holy Spirit. Profoundly biblical while remaining true to their Anglo-Catholic predecessors, we commend Our Worship and The Breviary for the private and corporate use of the Fellowship of Saint Brendan’s and for those of the broader Church of Jesus Christ who “long for the ancient paths.” Our Worship includes the Sunday liturgy used in Holy Trinity Chapel at Saint Brendan’s, along with liturgies for Ash Wednesday, a Bible-based version of the Stations of the Cross, Good Friday, and the Intercession Litany. The Breviary includes the Daily Offices for Morning Prayer, Midday Prayer, Evening Prayer, Compline, and the Intercession Litany. Both volumes contain our unique version of The Psalter. Both are case-laminated, hardbound books. If interested, Our Worship (434 pages) costs $25.00 (price includes shipping). The Breviary (400 pages) costs $20.00 (price includes shipping). If you would like to order either or both, please click on the "Order Form" button below. Unfortunately, currently we can only accept checks for our products (maybe sometime in the future we can also accept credit cards, not now).
