Prayer Book Society of the USA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Prayer Book Society of the USA (PBS USA), officially the Society for the Preservation of the Book of Common Prayer, seeks to maintain the Anglican tradition of liturgical common prayer and promote the use and understanding of traditional versions of the Book of Common Prayer such as the American edition of 1928.

A related society is the Prayer Book Society of Canada. There are additional groups in Britain and Australia.

The late Peter Toon was formerly the President of the Society. The current President is the Revd Gavin Dunbar, Rector of St John's Church in Savannah, Georgia.

Among its activities are an annual conference and the publication of The Anglican Way, a magazine devoted to the study of the history and fundamental character of Anglicanism.
