Orders of Service

[RoyalProtocol]

I have a large collection of Orders of Service from Church Services attended by members of the Royal Family most of which come from the Last 2-3 years, It includes some major events such as the Golden Jubilee, Silver Jubilee and The Royal Wedding in Denmark in 2004.

Does any one else collect orders of service.

I will put images of the Orders on this Thread but I cant start until Monday.

[RoyalProtocol]

Sorry for the very long delay, I finally have my scanner working.

The First order of service is HM The Queen's Silver Jubilee in 1977. The Service was held in St Paul's Cathedral and was attended by most of the Royal Family. This is a scan of an actual Order of Service used at that service.

Most the orders of service have been collected a part of a project for the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme, I hope you enjoy looking at them. If anyone would like to see some of the inside pages then do let me know, but please be patient as it takes quite a while to scan and post these images.

I would! In fact, I'd love to see all of the inside pages, if you still have them.

Does anyone also have a copy of the Archbishop of Canterbury's sermon that he conducted that day?

Yours truly,

The Royal Maundy 2005&6

These two orders of service illustrate the way in which Her Majesty’s life seldom changes from year to year, one year later another service, another cathedral, two more recipients but still the same order of service.

No, that's the Golden Jubilee. I've seen that one, thankfully, and even printed it out. Weren't you talking about the Silver Jubilee above?

Sorry, I can scan some of the pages, but not them all, if you can be more specific about what you would like to know, I don't mind typing out a summary if that would help, I don't have a copy of The Archbishop's address from the Silver Jubilee, try contacting Lambeth Palace. they might know.

Does anyone know exactly what goes on during the coronation of a Queen Consort, such as what is said?

[BeatrixFan]

Thankyou so much for those lovely scans RoyalProtocol. It's nice to see them.

As for your question SweetHomeNC, a Queen Consort is crowned next to her husband with a simplified version of the coronation of the King. I'm afraid I don't know very much else about it but that gives you a rough idea.

[BigRoyalFan]

Wonderful scans. I enjoyed looking at them.

Are there any actual pictures of the Royal Maundy ritual?

[Elspeth]

There are some photos in the News and Pictures thread V and the current events thread 10.
