Making Parish Policy : A Workbook on Sacramental Policies

How decisions are made about legitimate pastoral options has significant pastoral and spiritual implications. The clarity that comes with sacramental policies and procedures can support a parish’s goals of liturgical renewal. This workbook will help a parish review its sacramental and liturgical practices and consider what kind of policies may be helpful for the community. Exercises present a method for addressing issues and developing policies. Includes portions of The Sacramental Policies and Procedures for the Archdiocese of Chicago as an example of the product that might emerge from such a process.
