The perfect book for newcomers who are often confused by the worship service, Welcome to Sunday is also an excellent book for those who have been sitting in the pews without fully understanding what happens on Sunday morning. Episcopal priest Christopher Webber takes the reader from the sidewalk outside the church, guides them through the service, and sends them out again when the service has ended. Webber explains the postures, the Christian year, the colors we use during various seasons, and all the elements in the Service of the Eucharist. As in Webber's very popular Welcome to the Episcopal Church, the tone of the easy-to-read book is conversational, making it useful for parish study.

More About Welcome to Sunday: An Introduction to Worship in the Episcopal Church
An easy to read guide to the worship practice of the Episcopal Church. This nicely balanced introduction to Episcopal worship gives relevant and detailed descriptions af what is happening and why while avoiding information overload. When I'd finished the last page, I felt ready to walk into an Episcopal church with not only a basic understanding of what to expect but also that I'd been given the tools... So THAT's why we do that! This book taught me quite a bit about how the Sunday service is structured and how many of the rituals came about. Because of this book, I have even been able to explain parts of the service to some of the "cradle Episcopalians" at my church.
