- Notes
- "[By] A.A. Langdon".
- "Genuine concern for the Christian formation of children demands that every planned learning experience, including acts of worship, should make a meaningful contribution to their growth to maturity in Christ within the fellowship of the Church, whilst being consistent with Scriptural truth. This Study identifies questions requiring answers in terms of children's developmental learning and experience, and also in the light of Scriptural teaching as embodied in the Reformed Anglican heritage of the Book of Common Prayer. Although it originated in the context of the debate on this issue which took place within the Anglican Church of Australia between 1981 and 1986, it incorporates a response to relevant sections of the Knaresborough Report, 1985, entitled 'Communion Before Confirmation ?', produced for the Church of England by its General Synod Board of Education Working Party on Christian Initiation and Participation in the Eucharist, under the chairmanship of the Bishop of Knaresborough". -- Intro., p. 3.
- Contents: Introduction / A.A. Langdon and R.T. Beckwith -- Related Issues: Baptism and Confirmation -- The Reformation and Confirmation -- Changes in Society, Church Life and Patterns of Worship -- Aspects of a Theology of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper -- Understanding: necessary or not ? -- Sacramental Grace: Yes or No ? -- Does a Child's Concept of the Sacrament Matter ? -- What is a Eucharistic Community, and is the Eucharist its only Expression ? -- Decision: Yes or No ? -- Some Practical and Pastoral Considerations -- Conclusion.
