Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book addresses all of the religious ceremonies and rituals used by the American Episcopal Church in the late 19th century. These include rituals and ceremonies used for various events such as the opening of churches, graveyard, and the blessing of assorted religious objects such as an organ or an altar. This book brings together in one comprehensive volume all of the different ceremonies and rituals used by the Episcopal Church at a time when it was developing its own unique identity apart from the Church of England. The forms, ceremonies, and prayers in this book were largely the work of one man, Rev. John Henry Hobart, and were 'adapted to the American Church,' and were used until the 1979 Book of Common Prayer was introduced.
