What is Holy Eucharist?

The eucharist is also called the Lord's Supper, Holy Communion, the Divine Liturgy, the Mass, and the Great Offertory (BCP, p. 859). In the Book of Common Prayer (BCP), the entire service is entitled the "Holy Eucharist." The first part of the service is designated the "Word of God." It usually includes the entrance rite, the lessons and gradual psalm, the gospel, the sermon, the Nicene Creed, the prayers of the people, the confession of sin and absolution, and the peace. The second portion of the service is designated the "Holy Communion." It includes the offertory, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving, the communion of the people, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal. Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ's body and blood, and the principal act of Christian worship.

What is Morning Prayer?

Morning Prayer is a service of worship in The Episcopal Church, particularly when a priest is not involved in the service. Morning Prayer may be led by lay leaders of the church and does not include Eucharist. ​Morning Prayer once was the chief Sunday service in most Anglican churches on three out of four Sundays, the First Sunday usually being a celebration of Holy Communion. This practice has not continued because the Eucharist has been recognized as the “principal act of Christian worship on the Lord’s Day” in most parishes (see BCP, p. 13). Nevertheless, Morning Prayer is clearly designated as a daily service for worship in The Episcopal Church. ​​
