American Sarum

The history of Anglican Christian worship spans more than fifteen-hundred years, and touches the life of each parish in the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion. This book narrates how one American parish has owned that history, intentionally incorporating the riches of the medieval Sarum Use into its weekly worship while remaining faithful to the catholic and reformed tradition of the Book of Common Prayer. After nearly 100 years of such worship, Christ Church, Bronxville, New York, has become in its own right an American Sarum.
