1662 Support
Published by ☕,
I'd go with the 1662-IE IVP because of how straightforward it is. Fewer options are helpful for mission. Also, it has that historic connection that is pretty dang neat.

I think any Anglican mission should consider both the future and the present, and I do think the book best situated for future adoption across national and jurisdictional lines is the 1662:IE.

I think it very much depends upon what one sees as the aim and goal of common prayer. I would argue that the 1662:ie provides a real, historical foundation from which others could, if they must, add devotions their consciences demand

The 1662:IE has a great one in the appendix, but here is one from the prayer book society: https://t.co/lsLW9gXwao

You probably have already done this, but I would recommend a look at the 1961 English (in the back of the 1662:IE) or 1962 Canadian lectionaries as well. As someone who came to a similar conclusion regarding the 1945, I found these two to be the most edifying.

We use this one, which is the 1662 IE text pointed by Christopher Hoyt (editor of the Book of Common Praise 2017):https://t.co/ynhuFk9jdN

In case you were looking for our interview with the editors of the 1662 IE, we uploaded an edited version here: https://t.co/0RAE1GrwDE

That's too bad. I make sure to say the 2nd Exhortation (1662 version) twice per year, and I usually make an invitation to confession in my first homily during Advent/Lent. With a mostly evangelical parish, it's still a foreign concept to them.

The English Missal allows, of course, for a very "Prayer Book Catholic" mass that incorporates virtually all of the 1662 Communion service, adding in Prayers at the Foot, the traditional Offertory prayers, and the Canonhttps://t.co/XwjzYAhY5p

I think it's time we revive the term "Prayer Book Catholic", accepting all that was good in the High Church party and moderate Tractarianism, adding correction with modern historiography on the "catholicity" of the Reformers & recovering a better/realistic view of the 18th cent.

A very helpful explanation of the phrase here: https://t.co/AtfbyazHkS

The simplicity of the 1662 is a function of its beauty and utility for the common worshipper. Subsuming our own preferences to a rich and real tradition is a powerful tonic against the consumerism which plagues our souls and minds--the 79 fails to meet this need.

I think this rests on the assumption that what we mean by Anglo-Catholicism is Tractarianism. But historically, I don’t see how that’s tenable. Those in the AC Congress Movement weren’t using the 1662. They were using the Missal and/or the Roman Rite.

Is the conclusion then that self-described Tractarians ought support the 1662? (Or perhaps the 1787 in the American edition) https://t.co/5UEVGK2NLm

I also do not understand how some can say the 1662 is "the standard" (i.e. the thing by which one measures oneself) and settle for a liturgy which is so very different (1979/2019). When a liturgy which much more closely meets the standard is published, why is there not rejoicing?

Hi, IVP editor here. We're happy to work with anyone who wants to use the IE text—in fact we've already been doing that for various projects. We'd love to talk with anyone who has ideas to use the book.

It should be added that in many (if not all) of the 1662 lectionaries, if it says “to v. X”, it means “unto and not including v. X”
