CHRISTIAN INITIATION –– Eileen Crowley, Convener

The Christian Initiation Seminar deals with any and all aspects of the processes and rites of Christian initiation and post-initiation rites related to it. Past presentations and discussions have included parish celebration and the assembly's involvement in multi-stage initiation processes; rites celebrated during the catechumenate and the post-baptismal period of mystagogy; ongoing adult catechesis; practices and issues related to baptism of infants and children; sacramental preparation; confirmation and affirmation of baptism; ongoing reflection on baptismal callings and vocation; penitential and reconciliation services (what some have called "second baptism"); the call of the baptized to pray for the world; issues around the open communion table for those not yet baptized; and theological reflection on everything from baptismal pools (ancient and modern) and the baptismal water to the liturgical and ethical implications for the baptized regarding care of all of creation. The discussions are ecumenical and wide-ranging.
During the 2014 annual meeting, we will continue to reflect on the history, liturgical theology, and current initiation-related practices of our ecumenical traditions and related faith formation and catechesis. Several members will be offering chapters from their book projects:
Mark Stamm will present a draft of a chapter from his book-in-progress, Devoting Ourselves to the Prayers:  A Baptismal Theology for the Church’s Intercessory Work.

Nicholas Denysenko will present his latest work in his ongoing research into Byzantine and Orthodox rites related to initiation.

Eileen Crowley will present a chapter of her book on empowering the baptized to do photography as part of small group faith formation and theological reflection on Christian vocation and daily callings, Picture This...

EMERGING CRITICAL RESOURCES FOR LITURGICAL STUDIES –– Sharon Fennema, Convener


For the 2014 meeting, our seminar will discuss the implications of the work of Michel de Certeau for the understanding and practice of liturgy from our unique scholarly perspectives. In particular we will focus on Certeau’s works, The Practice of Everyday Life and “How is Christianity Thinkable Today,” which participants will have read in advance, though all are most welcome to participate regardless.  Guided by papers given by seminar participants, we will investigate what Certeau’s critical discourses of social representation and social modes of behavior have to offer the study of liturgy and the different foci within the field that form the heart of our inquiries.  The papers under discussion are circulated before the meeting and will not be presented as such, so please be sure to inquire with the convener to receive copies.

LITURGY & SPIRITUALITY –– Jennifer Davidson, Convener

Seminar Theme
“Encountering One Another’s Located Liturgical Spiritualities: What Brings Life?”
Recognizing that both liturgy and spirituality are contextual, socially-located constructs, this seminar is interested in exploring how we can best articulate our own liturgical spiritualities even as we seek to engage one another’s spiritualities through intercultural encounters. Throughout our discussion, we will ask: What is life-giving? What gifts might we offer to and receive from one another? We invite presentations that explore Asian/Asian-feminist, ecology-centered, feminist, mujerista, queer, and/or womanist liturgical spiritualities. We are also interested in Celtic, Ignatian, Pentecostal, Baptist, and other tradition-specific spiritualities which might inform liturgical life. In addition to papers, we also encourage alternative, interactive, or experiential presentations. This year we extended a special invitation for three other seminars to join us for joint sessions: Emerging Critical Resources for Liturgical Studies, Ecology and Liturgy, and Feminist Studies in Liturgy.

The Queering Liturgy group will meet outside of the normal seminar hours again.

Our emerging schedule looks like this:

Friday breakfast, we will discuss the status of, and next steps for, our two long-term projects––a collection of essays on queering liturgy and a queer hymnal.

Saturday at lunch, we will discuss a book we are reading together, Lee Edelman's No Future: queer theory and the death drive.

Sunday morning (after closing worship), we continue our discussion of a queer liturgical (anti-) eschatology, share queer hymn texts, and (as time allows) consider the queer potentialities of St. Liberata.
Any conference attendees who are interested in joining any part of our conversations should feel free to be in touch with the convener, Scott Haldeman, shaldeman@ctschicago.edu, for more information about exact times, locations and any changes in our agenda at any time. 





RITUAL THEORY AND PERFORMANCE –– Thomas Splain, Convener

The Ritual Theory and Performance Seminar began in 1976 and has developed over the years to include a wide range of approaches to ritual.  In November, we will be launching a website (tentative address: Ritualseminar.org) that includes much of our work and invites a larger participation in the discussions.  In Orlando, we want to look at the website, critique it and plan for our future as a seminar and the future of the website.

Somewhat in the same vein, we would also like to visit the development of understandings of “inculturation/contextualization” and explore what our work can contribute to the topic.
