BOOKS OF PRAYERS IN THE TRADITIONAL STYLE AND LANGUAGE OF THE CLASSIC BCP AS USED IN NORTH AMERICA ALONGSIDE THE BCP

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Greetings.

May I ask you IN YOUR KINDNESS to send me the titles (author/editor, title, publisher, place & year) of BOOKS OF PRAYERS that you know have been/are still used for extra petition & intercession at the end of the Daily Offices, when these offices are used as a full service, either in the a.m. or p.m.

I mean the Offices as offered to the LORD in the received, traditional language of Prayer as found in the traditional BCP- or even the Rite One of the 79 prayer book.

There are some churches which still have public services of M P & E P and there are persons who remember such services and I wonder what sources for additional prayers after the Office and before/after the sermon are used.

Such books of prayers have been/are usually also used for other purposes where prayers are needed outside the Eucharist - e.g. at Vestry Meetings, Women's Meetings, mid- week prayer groups and so on.

In England a standard example used for decades along with the BCP has been PARISH PRAYERS edited by Frank Colquhoun.

This is very English and I am looking for titles that did/do the same job in the PECUSA/ECUSA in the 20th/2lst century.

I thank you in advance for your help in this matter.

Peter
