1 MC704 Pastoral Liturgy and Priestly Formation Spring, 2010 The Rev. Beth Maynard Box Aim of the Course The aim of this class is to equip students to design, preside at, and evaluate worship in the Anglican tradition, based mostly on the 1979 Book of Common Prayer. Students will build a basic understanding of the biblical and historical background of Episcopal/Anglican liturgical practices, and consider how liturgy functions pastorally in community life. Non-Anglicans are welcome to use this course as a way of getting a grounding in the liturgical tradition, with the recognition that it is in several ways denominationally targeted. Goals of the Course 1. Students will be familiar with the contents of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer and have some exposure to Prayer Books from other provinces and to historical books. They will also become acquainted with other resources for leading worship, such as the Hymnal 1982, the Book of Occasional Services, and Lesser Feasts and Fasts. 2. Students will be able to plan and preside at Prayer Book worship that is theologically sound and pastorally appropriate to diverse settings. They will understand the range of worship choices available and begin to develop criteria for making those choices with intentionality. 3. Students will grasp the theology and structure of key liturgies. 4. Students will understand the liturgical year and the lectionary, and be able to use them effectively in Christian formation, pastoring, and leadership. 5. Students will have hands-on practice in different options for ceremonial, manual acts, and chant. 6. Students will begin, or continue, forming their own priestly identity. Required Texts of the Course The Book of Common Prayer and Administration of the Sacraments and Other Rites and Ceremonies of the Church, (1979) NY: Church Publishing. Bring the BCP to every class. Leonel L. Mitchell (rev. ed. 1991) Praying Shapes Believing: A Theological Commentary on the Book of Common Prayer. Morehouse Publishing. (PSB) Backordered at the publisher winter 2009; will not be at the bookstore obtain a copy from Amazon or elsewhere. Howard Galley (rev. ed. 1989) The Ceremonies of the Eucharist: A Guide for Celebration (Cambridge: Cowley Publications). Covers different approaches for liturgical practice from the point of view of all participants in the liturgy. After Galley s death, since this work treats only the Eucharist, Cowley published two companion volumes -- see recommended texts. (Galley)
2 Charles Hefling & Cynthia Shattuck, eds. (2006) The Oxford Guide to the Book of Common Prayer: A Worldwide Survey. Oxford Univ. Press. A broad survey of the global historical Prayer Book tradition emphasizing cultural influences. (OGBCP) Patrick Malloy (2007) Celebrating the Eucharist: A Practical Ceremonial Guide for Clergy and Other Liturgical Ministers. Church Publishing. More up to date than Galley, more interested in grounding/ principles, and with a less prescriptive ethos but less helpful on details. (Malloy) Strongly recommended if you did not read it for History of Liturgy (see below) Charles P. Price and Louis Weil (rev. ed. 2000, although the older version is acceptable since the revisions are quite modest) Liturgy For Living. Harrisburg: Morehouse Publishing. (LFL) NOTE: If you have not used this book in a course yet, I would recommend prioritizing reading the optional readings in it each week over completing the required ones in OGBCP; LFL will also be more useful to non-anglicans. Needed to complete assignments, but do not contain regular reading (on reserve) The Book of Common Prayer (1662) any publisher or read online The Hymnal 1982 NY: Church Publishing. Optional reading and key texts for your reference library on reserve Marion J. Hatchett (rev. ed. 1995) Commentary on the American Prayer Book, Harper SanFrancisco. An expert traces sources, history, development of rites of the 1979 Prayer Book. For instance, the historical background of each Collect is explained. (Hatchett) Leonel L. Mitchell (1998) Pastoral and Occasional Liturgies: A Ceremonial Guide. Cambridge: Cowley Publications. Companion to Galley. (POL) Leonel L. Mitchell (1996) Lent, Holy Week, and Easter: A Ceremonial Guide. Cambridge: Cowley Publications. Companion to Galley. (LHWE) Lesser Feasts And Fasts 2006: Together With the Fixed Holy Days (2006) Church Publishing. Propers, collects, and biographies for saints days and other lesser holy days, as well as daily Eucharist readings. New editions come out every 3-6 years. If your parish does not own this, you should. The propers are online at (LFF) The Book of Occasional Services (2003) Church Publishing, NYC. Exactly what it says: services clergy need occasionally -- e.g. Blessing of a Home, Stations of the Cross, etc. New editions come out every 3-6 years. Again, if your parish does not own this, you should. Not available online. (BOS) 2
3 3 Course Assignments a) Visit two Sunday liturgies in two different Anglican (Episcopal, ACNA. AMiA ) churches, other than the one where you currently worship or the one which is sponsoring you for ordination. Weekday or monastic liturgies can be substituted if absolutely necessary because of paid employment obligations. (You will benefit most if the churches are quite unlike each other.) For each one, write a personal reflection paper of 2-3 double-spaced pages, reacting to a few things that struck you about the planning for, praxis of, and presiding at each liturgy. (Consider questions such as: What values and goals were enshrined by this liturgy and how? If rubrics were violated or the logic of the service disrupted, where, why -- and did it work? How well were the various orders of ministry included? If someone worshipped here and only here, what would they tend to assume about God and the Christian life? What might you want to borrow or avoid in your own leadership?) Non-Anglicans may adapt this assignment with permission. 15% apiece; you will need to plan ahead over the semester to get these done in time! Turn in as completed, one by 3/4 and the second by 4/22. b) One 3-4 page paper (double spaced) comparing the lex orandi and structure of the Burial of the Dead in the 1662 and 1979 BCPs. Consider the experience of the service, what it would be like to preside or attend, how the rites would shape participants approach to God, grief, and the hope of resurrection. Prioritize your own observations of the actual rites; this is not a research paper or a theological critique. Non-Anglicans may adapt this assignment with permission. 10%, due 2/25 c) Prepare full bulletins for two worship case studies, one a Sunday Eucharist (due 3/11) and one a funeral (due 4/8), and annotate them, showing the rationale for your choices. Your work must address the case study situations/calendar occasions liturgically and pastorally. Non- Anglicans may adapt this assignment with permission. 15% apiece d) CHOOSE EITHER: A take-home, open-book final consisting of short answer questions about the liturgy and parish practice such as are regularly asked by laypeople. 20%, due last day for written work OR: A 5-7 page research paper (double spaced) on a topic approved by the instructor. Suggestions include the historical development of a particular rite, the liturgical theology of a major Anglican writer, liturgy in church planting, liturgical inculturation, children in church, effective use of technology in liturgical worship. Take this as a chance to explore a worshiprelated issue likely to be useful in the context where you expect to minister. 20%, due last day for written work f) Class participation in practice of ceremonial options, liturgical leadership, and chant, as well as in discussions, evidencing that you have done the weekly reading. Regular attendance. 10%

6 6 Works For Further Study A few especially recommended are highlighted. An Anglican Liturgical Library, online at Contains authorized texts from several provinces. Joseph Bernardin (1980) Burial Services, Harrisburg: Morehouse. This little black book is suitable for funeral services of different types.

Dom Gregory Dix (1945, 1982) The Shape of the Liturgy, NY: Seabury. Very dated now, but a classic, and its fourfold shape theory was a major turning point in liturgical reform. David W. Fagerberg (2004) Theologia Prima: What Is Liturgical Theology? Chicago: Hillenbrand Books. Explains why liturgical theology is different from Theology of worship or Theology from worship : profound insights, clear thought, and the century of consequences at the end are spellbinding. Mark Galli (2008) Beyond Smells and Bells: The Wonder and Power of Christian Liturgy, Brewster MA: Paraclete Press. A popular level introduction to devotional benefits of liturgical worship. Bernadette Gasslein (1997) Preparing and Evaluating Liturgy, Toronto: Novalis. A brief guide suitable for use with worship ministry teams. Marion J.

Aidan Kavanaugh (1990) Elements of Rite: A Handbook of Liturgical Style, Collegeville: The Liturgical Press. A keenly reasoned and written series of principles for good liturgy. You cannot go wrong if you truly internalize it. Aidan Kavanaugh (1992) On Liturgical Theology, Collegeville: The Liturgical Press. An extraordinary series of lectures setting out a rigorous, passionate, earthy, and deeply theological reading of what lex orandi, lex credendi truly implies. Not to be missed.
