Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a landmark work in the history of Christianity in England. Authored by leading religious figures, it presents the revised liturgy and doctrine of the Church of England during the reign of King Edward VI. The core of the collection is the Order of Communion, which had previously existed in Latin and was now to be performed in English. This change reflected the new emphasis on the importance of lay participation in religious services. The order also removed elements that were seen as superstitious and focused on the central themes of repentance, faith, and the importance of receiving Communion. Along with this Order of Communion, the book also includes the Order for Matins and Evensong, which were to be used in conjunction with the Communion service. This work had a profound impact on the religious life of the Church of England, ensuring that the service was accessible to all and focused on the key principles of the faith.
