dc.description.abstract | Members of the WMBAQ steering committee met in theological reflection to
discuss what they felt should be included as part of a confirmation program; the results of
this reflection are in Chapter Two. Of course, they weren't starting with a totally blank
slate — the Book of Common Prayer contains a brief, 18-page catechism, called “An
Outline of the Faith,” which is basically a commentary on the creeds. In addition, the
Diocese of Massachusetts has published documents that indicate what the bishops would
like to see covered in confirmation courses. I was part of the WMBQ steering committee
at the time and was asked to develop the outline for a program that could be used by
WMBAQ in preparing young people for confirmation. This project is my response to that
request. | en_US |
