As well as offering the Online Daily Office through the Internet, The Mission of St. Clare hopes to establish tiny meditation spaces within office complexes and shopping areas."

Lectionary Page
"This site was created to support all those who need access to the lesson texts of the Episcopal (ECUSA) Eucharistic Lectionary. The Episcopal Lectionary is based on the Roman Catholic Lectionary, a product of Vatican II. The Lutheran Lectionary and the Revised Common Lectionary also share this ancestry, so that quite often, the Episcopal, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, and Roman Catholic Churches are using the same lessons, with slight variations. The lessons presented here follow the Episcopal form." Maintained by Kelly Puckett.

Prayer Book Society of the USA

It claims that the Constitution of the Episcopal Church gives to Rectors and parishes, as well as to individual Episcopalians, the right to use the last genuine Book of Common Prayer in America: the 1928 BCP."
