On November 3rd, All Saints Sunday will be celebrated as we look at the Anglican tradition. With their commitment to the via media or “middle way” between Roman Catholicism and Reformed Protestantism, Anglicanism has much to contribute to the wider ecumenical church.

The prayer books of the Anglican communion will help shape our worship this day and help us to discover what is meant by “Lex Orandi, Lex Credendi”.  The hymns will be drawn primarily from the Anglican tradition, and I have it on good authority that they are quintessentially Anglican in nature. For this Sunday, the scripture readings will be those for All Saints Day, November 1st.
