Church Profiles Explained

The Episcopal Cafe team has been enjoying this recent post at The Beaker Folk of Husborne Crawley, which provices a (mostly) tongue-in-cheek guide to church profile euphemisms. Some excerpts:

Affirming Catholic: We’re very keen on everything. And very affirming. We affirm lots of things. In a very gentle, affirming way. Not too specific. More kind of Affirming Fuzziness.

Dignified worship: No children.

Liturgical renewal: At the cutting edge since 9am, sometime in 1950.

Modern Catholic: You might think “electric guitars and loads of incense”. You might be disappointed.

Strong choral tradition: The organist is in control. The organist has always been in control. The organist will always be in control. The organist has sign-off on the Church Profile.
