In almost every parish in North America, the people who come seeking membership in the Catholic Church are more likely to be baptized than unbaptized, yet most of the material published for Christian initiation focuses primarily on the unbaptized. This book is different. Ron Oakham has invited pastoral ministers and scholars to present historical and theological foundations for ministry to the baptized candidate. In light of these foundations, of the practice of parishes throughout North America, and of his discussions with many other initiation ministers, Oakham proposes a comprehensive, pastoral plan for adapting the principles of initiation for the baptized candidate. One at the Table offers an invaluable critique and vision of the way we bring baptized Christians into the full communion of the Catholic Church. Published by Liturgy Training Publications.
