THE BOOK OF OFFICES Services for Certain Occasions not provided for in the Book of Common Prayer Compiled by the Liturgical Commission and commended for use by General Convention SECOND EDITION 1949 THE CHURCH PENSION FUND New York This little book is the successor to (1914), and the predecessor to today's Book of Occasional Services. It omits a number of services found in these books, partly as it is intended solely for the use of clergy performing more specialized services. A number of the services in this book may now be found in the current (1979), either incorporated into other services, or standing on their own. Further information may be found in the two prefaces, below. Thanks are due to Richard Mammana, who transcribed the text, and to Thomas Rae, who provided a copy of the book.
