Anyone who liked liturgy would have loved Church of Ireland General Synod 2002. There were no less than nine liturgical Bills for consideration. These included traditional and modern forms of marriage service together with a form of prayer and dedication after a civil marriage. It was emphasised in the introduction to this latter Bill that the object was not to provide a service of blessing such as used to be suggested for divorced couples who used not to have access to the marriage service, but to deal with occasions where, for various reasons, couples would undergo a civil ceremony first.
