Organisation Title
Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament
Description

The Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament (CBS) was founded in 1862 as part of the Catholic Revival in the Church of England. Its aim was to be, first of all, a confraternity (brotherhood) of men and women praying and working for a greater devotion to Jesus Christ in the Eucharist and in the Sacrament of his Body and Blood. Members pledge themselves to honour Jesus Christ the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, to pray for each other at the Eucharist, and to make careful preparation for receiving Holy Communion.

Today it is no longer confined to England alone but has spread to many places within the Anglican Communion of churches, especially in Great Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and parts of Africa.
