A Book of Prayer for the Church and the Home

Universalist worship was mostly free and unliturgical, but a liturgical strand persisted, and this denominational service book is its chief monument: orders of service, prayers for church and family use, selections from the Psalms, and forms for baptism, communion, marriage, and burial. It shows the Universalist Church of America providing for congregations that wanted the dignity of common prayer without the doctrine of the prayer books they had left behind.
