Gavin before a 1662 BCP Service in front of the white office building at St. Philip’s Church Hill, York Street, inner city of Sydney (near the Harbour Bridge), known as “St. Philip’s Parish House.” It was Dedicated on the anniversary of the 20 year reign of Elizabeth II (1952-1972), on Accession Day, 6 February, 1972, at the start of her 21st regnal year. A plaque inside it says it was “opened by” “Sir Paul Hasluck,” who as “Governor-General of Australia” was the Federal representative of the Crown from 1969 to 1974, “and dedicated by Marcus “Loane,” the “Archbishop of Sydney and Metropolitan of New South Wales,” “on Sunday 6 February, 1972.” Trinity Sunday 25 (red-letter day), & King Edmund’s Day (black-letter day), 20 Nov. 2011. (See Volume 4 Dedication.)		The Minister (Bishop Ray Smith) at St. Philip’s York Street, at a 1662 Book of Common Prayer Service of Holy Communion. The Communion elements have been moved to the north end of the Lord’s Table for the Prayer of Consecration (paten in Minister’s hands, Chalices on Table to far right of photo). This accords with BCP rubric for the Minister to be “standing at the north side,” “before the” Lord’s “Table,” so that his actions are “before the people” during “the Prayer of Consecration.” This was found to be a useful and good practice not “contrary to God’s Word” or not “against God’s Word” (Articles 20 & 34, 39 Articles). The Puritans objected and opposed this as an Anglican practice, claiming that the Minister should always face the people, rather than “turning to the people” from this northward position to e.g., “pronounce” the “Absolution.” The Papists objected and opposed this as a Protestant practice, claiming that the Table was “an altar,” and that the Romish priest should stand in the middle of it with his back to the people at the Roman Mass, & then elevate the bread in order for it to be idolatrously adored by the congregation; whereas the Anglican Protestants said, “no adoration … ought to be done, either unto the sacramental bread or wine … for that were idolatry to be abhorred of all faithful Christians …” (Final Rubric, Communion Service, 1662 Book of Common Prayer). Trinity Sunday 25, “Stir up Sunday” (in-house BCP Anglican name for the day), Sunday before Advent, 20 Nov. 2011. (See Volume 4 Dedication.)
The Queen’s 59th Accession Year (1952-2011), & commencement of her 60th regnal year. St. Philip’s Church Hill, York Street, Accession Day, Sunday 6 Feb. 2011, after a service from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. The 1662 prayer book traditionally has printed at the front of it the 1559 Act of Elizabeth I (Regnal years 1558-1603) which refers to how Cranmer’s 1552 “Book of Common Prayer … was repealed, and taken away by … Queen Mary, to the great decay of the due honour of God, and discomfort to the professors of the truth of Christ’s religion;” one of whom was the Protestant Archbishop Thomas Cranmer, who became a Marian martyr. This makes the point that Cranmer’s 1552 prayer book was taken away by the Romanists under Bloody Mary, and revived as a symbol of Protestantism in the 1559 prayer book, and now found as a symbol of Protestantism in the 1662 prayer book. (See Volume 4 Dedication & Sermon.)		Old plaque inside Church. The parishes, though not the church buildings, of St. Philip’s (inner City of Sydney) and St. John’s Parramatta (western Sydney) are the two oldest parishes in Australia, being formed by order of the NSW Governor in 1802. His Excellency Governor Philip King, as the representative of King George III ordered the formation of the parishes of “‘Saint Phillip,’ in honor of the first Governor of this territory,” Arthur Phillip, and “‘St. John’s,’ in honor of the late Governor, Captain John Hunter; and the churches … at Sydney and Parramatta be respectively named Saint Phillip and Saint John.” But when the new parish church was built in 1856, “St. Phillip’s” with a double “l” in memory of Arthur Phillip, was renamed and consecrated as “St. Philip’s” with a single “l” in memory of the Apostle Philip.
Minister (Rev. Mr. Justin Moffatt), at a 1662 Book of Common Prayer Service, St. Philip’s York Street, Accession Day, Sunday 6 Feb. 2011.		BCP Service at St. Philip’s: Accession Day, Epiphany 5, & Richard Johnson’s Day (transferred from 3 Feb. to following Sunday), Sunday 6 Feb. 2011. The Chancel Table set for Communion with a fair white linen cloth upon it is elevated for visibility by the congregation, so that e.g., the actions of the Minister at "the Prayer of Consecration" when he is "standing before the Table" "at the north side" are "before the people" (1662 BCP rubric). I.e., the Lord's Supper is "ministered according to Christ's ordinance" without any need for the elements to be "lifted up" in front of the people “to be gazed upon;” since the church has found from experience that any such non-visibility such as would occur with a non-elevated table at the church's east end, may result in superstitious notions connected with actual or perceived secrecy with the people not being able to see the consecration (such as occurred at the pre-Vatican II Roman Mass with the Roman Catholic priest blocking visibility of consecration by having his back to the people); whereas if the elements are “lifted up” in order to achieve “more dramatic” visibility by the people (such as done at both the pre & post Vatican II Council Roman Mass), this then also facilitates, and in some people excites, “adoration” which is “idolatry” contrary to I Cor. 5:11; 8:9,11-13; 10:14 (Articles 19, 22, 25 & 28, Anglican 39 Articles & Final Rubric 1662 BCP Communion Service; see Bishop Ray Smith in above photo). In the Chancel i.e., the area at the church’s east end behind the Communion rail where Communicants kneel on the cushions to receive Communion; far left – Paten & Challices under white Communion veil at centre of the Table; right of centre - Offertory plate, which after the Collection monetary bags are put in it, is placed on the holy Table; & far right - Bishop Ray Smith (a retired auxiliary Bishop of Sydney Diocese, formerly Bishop of Liverpool in western Sydney).
