Evensong & Benediction in the Anglican Tradition

[@marcuytdewilgen2305]

I like very must the Anglican liturgy, I'm Catholic, but now I can be Anglican Roman Catholic without lost my Catholic faith. Grace to pope Benedict.

Exactly Marc! We must thank good Pope Benedict XVI

I am Roman Catholic and I live in Cuba. Since I discovered the Anglican Tradition and the book of Common Prayer of 2928 and 1662, I have been deeply in love with Christianity and Anglican heritage.

Cheers to these Catholics for AWESOME worship. I feel tearful in my joy. Don't let critics stop you. God is too important to listen to naysayers.

[@theresawoodford6891]

I don't understand? These are Anglican not Catholics as you say

[@youtubesketches110]

@@theresawoodford6891, these are Catholics using the more antiquarian Anglican rite to worship. These Catholics are reviving ancient traditions that disappeared from their church 50 years ago.

Absolutely beautiful service. I love hearing the Psalm sung to proper Anglican chants. Thank you.

A lot of the Anglican liturgical influences came from Catholicism but rather an English influenced catholicism more than roman.

[@jonb4020]

Odd this. I accept that they may wish to use wording other than the usual Psalter that we use in England, but Psalms 110 and 116 are morning psalms, and would never be sung at evensong. (The exception might sometimes be to use a set psalm for a specifically important day in the church's year.) Good rendition of Howells Gloucester - well done choir! Everything after about 40 minutes would not happen in an anglican church. Interesting video - thanks for uploading.

The eucharistic benediction do happen in many Anglo-Catholic parishes in the church of England at the end of Evensong.

@@s.albans2875 Thanks for the information. I believe you, though I have not been aware of it till now. But I did write "anglican". I don't consider anglo-romano-catholics and/or people who swing incense about to be anglicans! 🙂

The proper vestments for the officiant of Evensong should be, English cassocks (double breasted), English surplice, tippet, with a hood or a cope sometimes. They are not merely protestant creations, but rooted in medieval English traditions.

How strange to have Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament without any bells!

[@actuallicensedteacher1846]

I need the setlist please!!

[@mikesobay]

Lace vestments do not exist in th English tradition. Instead, medieval vestments are used. Additionally, English tradition is a low bow, after the ancient Sarum Use, instead of genuflection.

This is not a correct Anglican Catholic Benediction! The should be Sanctus bells at the moment of blessing with the montrance AND accompanied by extremely ornate and dramatic organ improvisation. Finally, since details are critically important, there was an absence of and lack luster attention to liturgical movements. Candles should have been already on the altar, the attendants of the priest should have known exactly their function, roles and movements, and everything should have been rehearsed in extreme detail so to be the envy of a Marine corp drill team. I have worked as a professional choirmaster and organist within the Anglican Use and I know well the whole Anglo-Catholic rites and rituals. Study your Percy Dearmer’s “The Parson’s Handbook” well as a primer.

Viola Bear. This isn't just awesome--it is more beautiful, and more Anglican than 99% of Evensongs in the Episcopal churches where I live. - Let me guess. Do you ever experience self-loathing? Do you get offended when you see yourself in others whom you view with lesser esteem? Also, are you aware that Evensong isn't the property of white, Oxbridge people of high social standing? - As an Anglican OCM at a smaller church I have experienced deep hostility from others in the Anglican tradition. This bitterness is driving away our supporters. Deep down inside you know exactly what I am saying. - I apologize for my criticism. But I ask that maybe you could find joy in this worship. And that you make room for the rest of us. May God bless both you and me so that we might find less heartbreak and more joy.

[@jonb4020]

I suggest that if the catholic church spent less time on ritual, procedures, incense, robes, money-making/wasting and the whole host of other unnecessary paraphernalia with which it has been bogged down for so long - not to mention the other unsavoury practices to which it has so often been party - and more time doing Christian works for the poor and needy, it might begin to drag itself out of the mire into which its glorification of itself and its institutions, and its man-invented dogmas, have led it.
