Baldovin, S.J. and Thomas H. Shattauer, conveners of the <strong>Seminar on the Way<\/strong>, guided the several-year project of scholarly papers oriented to Catholic-Lutheran ecumenical dialogue toward creation of this document, which they have now sent to national and international ecumenical offices of both churches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The seminar grounds the statement\u2019s work on the considerable ecumenical convergences realized by the century-and-a-half-long Liturgical Movement, as well as \u201cThe Joint Statement on the Occasion of the Joint Catholic-Lutheran Commemoration of the Reformation\u201d (Lund, 31 October 2016), which affirms, \u201c&#8230; we have learned that what unites us is greater than what divides us.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The statement examines three issues \u201cfrom the Viewpoint of Liturgy&#8221; \u2013 Baptism, Eucharist, and Ministry \u2013 articulating for each points of strong agreement but also ways in which Lutherans and Roman Catholics may each better appropriate strengths from their dialogue partner&#8217;s tradition of practice. Notable is the manner in which the second section, &#8220;Eucharist from the Viewpoint of Liturgy,\u201d tackles head-on the thorny issue of sacrifice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Purposely succinct, with each of the three sections averaging just four paragraphs, the statement reaches the following vigorous conclusion: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>As together we explored and identified solutions for the remaining differences between our two communions, the positive results of our seminar lead us to invite both of our churches to consider taking bold action. On the basis of our liturgical methodology (lex orandi\/lex credendi) we have found that agreement between Lutherans and Roman Catholics is such that there should be no obstacle to eucharistic sharing and that there are no significant obstacles to the mutual recognition of ministries. These conclusions are founded on a liturgical ecclesiology rooted in baptism.&nbsp;Today as the Christian world faces considerable challenges, we can no longer fear to take those steps which will witness to the world our reconciliation and our unity for which Christ prayed (John 17:22).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Signatories include the seminar\u2019s two dozen participants \u2013 Roman Catholics, members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, plus one Presbyterian (PC:USA) \u2013 as well as two denominational consultants and a half-dozen guests \u2013 likewise Catholic, Lutheran, and Presbyterian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the publication of the statement on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naal-liturgy.org\/seminars\/seminar-on-the-way\/\">NAAL\u2019s website<\/a>, the conveners encourage its broad dissemination, study, and discussion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A seminar inaugurated at the 2018 annual meeting of the North American Academy of Liturgy to forge a contribution to Catholic-Lutheran ecumenical dialogue has concluded its work with the publication of \u201cOn the Way to Full Communion: Thinking About Christian Unity from Liturgy\u201d (29 June 2023).
