The Anglican Cycle of Prayer
for use in the Diocese of Rupert’s Land
January 2015
Church Year B
Year 2 Daily Office
RCL/BCP
Introduction
For each Sunday there are intentions for specific dioceses/synods/groups in
The Anglican Communion Worldwide, The Anglican Church of Canada (ACC)
and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) as well the Diocese of
Rupert’s Land. One of the characteristics of the Christian community
throughout the ages has been our commitment to pray for the whole world
but especially for our Christian sisters and brothers in churches closely linked
to our own.
Prayer cycles can be overwhelming and ‘crowded’ pieces of liturgies. Care
needs to be exercised in setting a context.
