Based on the Lessons from the original lectionary that was published with the American 1928 Book of Common Prayer. (In 1943, the General Convention of the Episcopal Church adopted a new lectionary, intended to increase the selections for Sundays and Holy Days. However, that 1943 lectionary actually decreased the amount of Scripture that is read in the weekday lessons, for which reason some people still prefer the original one.)



INTRODUCTION
Many of our Continuing Anglican churches presently lack a resident priest, and must perforce be ministered to by Lay Readers, who, of course, cannot celebrate the Eucharist, and are not authorized to conduct the AnteCommunion, and thus will lead Morning or Evening Prayer. Because lay readers do not normally preach sermons of their own composition, there is a need for homilies they can read. Since Morning and Evening Prayer do not use the same lectionary as does the Eucharist, it seems appropriate that there be homilies based on the lessons actually read. We hope you find this collection of sermons helpful.
