What should a pastor do to preserve the holiness and the purpose of Communion? What happens when a non-Catholic receives Holy Communion? How should a Catholic pastor respond to non-Catholics who wish to have communion without conveying harshness, scrupulosity, legalism, or rudeness? Intended to help Christians recognize the present provisional norms and to see new possibilities in eucharistic sharing, \u003ci\u003eCommunion with Non-Catholic Christians\u003c\/i\u003e examines the risks, challenges, and opportunities involved in the admission of communion to non-Catholic Christians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCommunion with Non-Catholic Christians\u003c\/i\u003e begins by defining eucharistic sharing. It assists Catholics and non-Catholics in understanding the present discipline of eucharistic sharing or receiving Holy Communion outside of one's own church. Secondly, it looks at what caution should be taken in eucharistic sharing, the values at stake, and the reasons for more open eucharistic sharing for Christian unity. Finally, it looks at the opportunities in eucharistic sharing and the possibility of full communion. By focusing on liturgical law and pastoral practices, this book moves the discussion of the admission of communion forward to new possibilities for growth in communion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapters are: \"What is Eucharistic Sharing?\" ?Risks, or Some Reasons for Caution in Eucharistic Sharing, ? ?Challenges, or Some Reasons for a More Open Eucharistic Sharing, ? and ?Opportunities, or Sharing the Eucharist in Hope for Full Communion.?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey Vanderwilt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.04h x 6.10w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814628959\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liturgical Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40628665352307,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":22.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_52283947-fe62-463b-8ef4-266064fd826c.jpg?v=1671116878","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/communion-with-non-catholic-christians-risks-challenges-and-opportunities-9780814628959","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
