The Prayer Book Society in Victoria is based at All Saints’ Church, 2 Chapel Street, East St Kilda, Melbourne. Meetings are held quarterly, following a service of the Eucharist from the Book of Common Prayer, with traditional hymns, at 11.00am. Notice of meetings is sent to those on the membership list, and can also be found below.
The aims of the Society are to encourage the use of the Book of Common Prayer in worship, to make it known to younger generations and new Anglicans, and to provide information about where and when it is continued to be used. A survey of usage of the BCP in the parishes of the Melbourne Diocese is currently underway: a list will be published here as soon as it becomes available.
All are welcome to join the Society and attend the meetings, at which there is usually an interesting address or paper given. Members are asked to bring their own lunch: tea and coffee are provided.
The Chairman is the Rev'd Tom Morgan and more information is available from Mrs Helen Farrer, Acting Secretary, at the following email: prayerbookBCP@gmail.com

Lord Jesus Christ
You taught us to love our neighbour,
and to care for those in need
as if we were caring for you.
In this time of anxiety, give us strength
to comfort the fearful, to tend the sick,
and to assure the isolated
of our love, and your love,
for your name's sake,
Amen.
With acknowledgement to the Church of England liturgy and prayer resources.
