Reason: Changed the 79 prayer book reference to an easier-to-reference version after a rework of the originally-linked website left it hard to navigate
In an effort to link to major church and BCP sites, I forgot two of my favorite sites:
http://satucket.com/lectionary/Calendar.htm This is the Calendar of the Church Year, with all ECUSA-authorized commemorations of saints and feast days except movable feasts (tied to the date of Easter) listed. The main page is the church calendar; each listing is a link to a biography of the saint (or a short write-up on the feast) with lectionary and collect for the day.
http://www.oremus.org/hymnal/82.html Index to The Hymnal 1982. Links connect to pages on individual hymns which give the text unless copyright issues preclude doing so, the author, and generally a MIDI file of the music to which it is set. (Some of the MIDI files leave a bit to be desired musically. )

I site i use often for a variety of reasons is www.wikipedia.org It is just a very good and concise online encyclopedia, and i've found it helpful at times to fill in basic gaps in my knowledge- religious or otherwise.

"Thus abundantly hath the Church of England vindicated her reformation from all pretence of apostasy from the true, ancient Catholic and Apostolic Church...No new Church was set up; no new articles of faith brought in; no new Sacraments; no new order of Priesthood to minister in holy things... only the old were purged from impurities in doctrine, worship and practice. If we were the Catholic Church before, we are still so, and to better purpose." William Cave, The Unity of the Catholic Church maintained in the Church of England

Hey Poly
I had never seen the Hymnal Index - THAT could come in handy-dandy.
Anther good hymnal website is the Cyber Hymnal It isn't totally comprehensive but you can search for hymns by a number of methods - seasons, tune, biblical verse etc.l
