The Daily Prayer 'feed'

You can add a 'feed' from the Church of England web site to provide your web site users with accurate, up-to-date services from either The Book of Common Prayer or Common Worship.

To do this, first check that you are willing to abide by the terms and conditions. Then, look in the list below for the feed that you want to provide and copy the hypertext link into your page. When the user selects the link on your site, they will be taken to our site and served up with the service that they have chosen.

A directory of web sites that already use the feed is available to browse.
