When the Inter-Lutheran Commission on Worship (ILCW) disbanded in 1978 with the publication of the Lutheran Book of Worship, the Coordinating Committee for Cooperative Projects in Congregational Life (CCCPCL) was created to continue working on unfinished ILCW projects. It was at a meeting of this committee that it was decided to develop an occasional service book based on the Lutheran Book of Worship.
