Bishop

‘Bishop’ comes from the Greek word for ‘overseer’. So a bishop is a senior Christian minister authorised to have oversight for God’s people. As well as duties given to deacons and priests, bishops confirm and ordain.

Liturgy

Liturgy is a set form of words and action used for worship. In the Church in Wales (and many other churches) these forms follow the same pattern from one congregation to another. Most Anglican liturgies look back in some way to the Book of Common Prayer.

Prayer

Prayer sustains our human relationship with God and may involve words (formal or informal) or be silent. Prayer can involve adoration (‘I love you’), confession (‘sorry’), thanksgiving and supplication (‘please’).

An Order for Christian Funerals - 2002

This edition contains a considerable amount of additional material. It is intended primarily as a resource for those conducting funerals, and there should therefore be no need to equip churches with multiple copies. In the interests of clarity and ease of use, material from the Prayer Book provision is normally printed first, followed by the supplementary material. The only exceptions to this are Sections 5 and 20, where the readings are listed and printed in their biblical order.
