Rogation Sunday reminds us of our duty to care for God's creation. As we seek blessings on the earth, we acknowledge our role as stewards and our need for God’s grace in every harvest and season.
Today is a call to humble prayer, asking God to bless our lands and labors.
From How to Use the Book of Common Prayer:
The Fifth Sunday after Easter, also called Rogation Sunday (p. xxiv), is followed by three days of fasting and prayer. These are called the Rogation Days (p. xxv), and the name is from the Latin word rogare, which means “ask.” These…
Today is the feast of St. Philip and St. James. Want to know more? Here are two paragraphs from How to Use the Book of Common Prayer:
May 1: Saint Philip and Saint James’s Day. On this day two saints are commemorated. One is St. Philip, who in the gospel of the day fails to…
Most of the language in the prayer book is old. But it isn't complicated like Shakespeare. Instead, the words of the prayer book have an extraordinary simplicity and gravity. They are as straightforward and timeless as "to have and to hold," "till death us do part." And many have…
Just thinking about how many saints are going to be trained for the royal priesthood through these works of lively faith and true devotion. It is a great time to be an Anglican.
One of the finest prayers in the Book of Common Prayer:
... that they may love the thing which thou commandest, and desire that which thou dost promise...

Tomorrow is St. Mark's Day. Here is the entry in How to Use the Book of Common Prayer:

From the psalms at morning prayer (62:10):
O trust not in wrong and robbery; give not yourselves unto vanity; * if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
Today is Wednesday, a day to say the Litany. Here's a quote from How to Use the Book of Common Prayer:
The Litany was the first English liturgy authorized by the Church of England—in 1544, five years before the rest of the Book of Common Prayer. Archbishop Cranmer started with…
From How to Use the Book of Common Prayer:
Next are the five Sundays after Easter, a period sometimes called “Eastertide.” During this time, the epistles are taken from the “general epistles”—which is the name for the epistles of Peter, James, John, and Jude. These selections…
From How to Use the Book of Common Prayer:
The next day is “Easter Even.” The Book of Common Prayer does not have a long Easter Vigil service on the Saturday night before Easter. Instead, this day is quiet stillness, with none of the intensity of Good Friday or Easter Day. It is…

Many parishes will transfer the Feast this year. Nonetheless, it is worth considering how the Collect, Epistle and Gospel for the day offer a different perspective on Holy Week and invite us to see the passion of our Lord through the eyes of his loving mother.
Today is the Sunday next Before Easter, and so we enter into Holy Week. What makes the Prayer Book approach to the Passion of our Lord distinctive? A good starting place might be this helpful thread below from the editors of the BCP 1662 International Edition...
