Miscellaneous Tables
Taken from the Rubrics of the 1928 BCP

The following tables summarize various rubrics in the 1928 BCP concerning portions of the Liturgy for Morning/Evening Prayer and Holy Communion which change for certain days or seasons. This information is spread throughout the BCP; in "The Order for Morning/Evening Prayer", "The Order for Holy Communion", and the "Collects, Epistles and Gospels".
