    Hello all!

    Earlier today, I was invited to work on ACNA's Traditional Language BCP set to be released in 2019. This is a huge milestone for me, and I am expectedly nervous. Prayers would be appreciated!

    Yours in Christ,

    A very exciting project, though I suspect a big one.

    I saw a few people bashing you when you offered your work for consideration in one of the Facebook groups; mostly folks who verge on worshiping the 1662 or 1928. I don't recall if I commented at the time, but your project is worthwhile if for no other reason than your personal spiritual growth. I have half a dozen projects I have worked on that have never seen wider distribution but they were profitable for me. And perhaps they will one day reach a form where I wish to share them.

    It is also good that someone on the Task Force had the good sense to invite in a young voice rather than maintaining an echo chamber of the usual suspects. Congratulations to you.

    I welcome the criticism. ACNA's intent, after reviewing my site, is to release a separate prayer book with the exact same rubrics, content, et cetera, in Cranmerian language and the Coverdale Psalter. No one is being forced to change their prayer book, as this is really a fix of the 79.

    As a side note, I'm not sure they know my age :).

    I am praying for you! I think you'll meet our rector, who is helping along with this project. I've been tasked with typing up a few of the psalms for the Office! He's gone away this week to Vancouver for an Archdeacon's conference.

    Wait so you're producing the Cranmerian version of the 1979 BCP?

    Congratulations on everything, by the way.
