2025 Proposed Book of Common Prayer (Hardback or Cased Book)

Very few books have made such an impact upon English-speaking Christians as the Book of Common Prayer. It provided not only the main services of the Church within a single volume, but it also presented a way to live out the Christian life within the life and patterns of the Church. A revision of the 1928 Book of Common Prayer, the 2025 Proposed Book of Common Prayer achieves the same goal: an accessible book for priest and lay alike to live the English liturgical tradition within the life of the Orthodox Catholic Church.

This Book contains beautiful and important liturgies, such as the Daily Office, a daily cycle of prayers throughout the hours of each day, centred on the Psalms and other Scriptures. It also contains Litanies, the Holy Mass (with relevant preparation and thanksgiving prayers), and the unique Collects for every Sunday and major Feast Day. This Book will be a welcome and fruitful addition to the prayer life of any Christian, wanting to connect to the practice and faith of the ancient church.

The Orthodox Church, in her re-evangelisation of the West, has sought to receive and make whole the traditions of those Christians who find their home in her. Due to this, she has embraced the liturgical traditions of Anglicans seeking the ancient faith and Catholic Orthodoxy, without abandoning their authentic customs and rites. The fruit of this has been English Rite liturgies within the Orthodox Church. This volume seeks to advance this mission by presenting to the Church a full Book of Common Prayer.

We are confident that this will be fruitful for all who use it and a prized treasure for many. As it has begun to be used faithfully by many, we hope for its eventual official reception into the Orthodox Church.
