Summary:

This illustrated dictionary for the Episcopal Church is an essential reference to its terminology, worship, structure, and polity. This entirely new edition has been expanded, revised, and updated to include new terms that have come into use since it was first published, as the language Episcopalians use to describe their faith, worship, and common life continues to evolve. A Dictionary for Episcopalians is ideal for new members, seminarians, clergy, confirmation and inquirers' classes, altar guilds, church school teachers, and anyone who wants to learn more about the Episcopal Church. With illustrations and a pronunciation guide, it is a basic text for every parish library and sacristy.
