Description
The first edition of Lesser Feasts and Fasts was authorized more
than 40 years ago to meet a liturgical and pastoral need for the
commemoration of various saints and occasions not included as
major Holy Days on the calendar of the Book of Common Prayer.
Subsequent editions have been updated regularly to include
biographical and liturgical material for new commemorations
authorized for permanent or trial observance by the General
Convention of the Episcopal Church.
This newest edition will contain material approved for trial use by
the 2006 General Convention. Among the names presented are
Oscar Romero, Roman Catholic Bishop of El Salvador and martyr;
James Theodore Holly, first African-American bishop in the
Episcopal Church; and Vida Scudder, educator and reformer.
