Planner Step One: Select a Base Liturgy
Think of a base liturgy as a worship service as it appears in the Book of Common Prayer or a similar book. When you choose a base liturgy, riteplanning.com begins customizing it by adding any available proper texts (prayer of the day, readings, etc.) and moving to the next step, where you will continue the customization.
For most lectionary events, you have several choices of base liturgy.
The choice of base liturgy for Ash Wednesday and the major Holy Week services will appear when you choose to plan for one of those dates.
If you choose Special Service as the basic service type, your choice of base liturgy includes healing, wedding, funeral, and daily prayer services from four hymnals.
If, before you choose a base liturgy, you discover that you’ve chosen the wrong calendar date or basic service type, you can go back to the Day View of the Planner Calendar by clicking the “Start Over” button.
