e984515 111953 1883. Dec. 17, The Commillaa Resolution of 1880... Resolved: That a Joint-Committee, to consist of seven Bishops, seven Presbyters, and seven Laymen, be appointed, to consider and to report to the next General Convention, whether, in view of the fact that this Church is soon to enter upon the second century of its organized existence in this country, the changed conditions of the national life do not demand certain alterations in the Book of Common Prayer in the direction of liturgical enrichment and increased flexibility of use. |
