- Notes
- The author, and her husband, recently travelled to England where they attended two worship services with quite a different feel for visitors. "[I]n our imperfect communities, symbols, especially symbolic action, expressed in our liturgies provide a powerful reminder to the community of its passions, priorities and beliefs, often inspiring action. Symbols express the corporate identity of a community and are a clear statement to the visitor of `who we are'. Therefore, our awareness of our symbolic language is critical to the life of our spiritual communities."
