What does the vestry do? Is there a difference between a rector and a vicar? What exactly is an undercroft, anyway? Young people—and their families—can turn to this user-friendly, clearly written resource to learn the meanings of many of the unique words that are part of the Anglican tradition.
The Anglican Young People’s Dictionary is a concise, engaging, easy-to-read dictionary of some 150 often-used but frequently misunderstood words used by Anglicans. Written in an approachable, kid-friendly style, it’s an excellent resource for teens approaching Confirmation, as well as students in parish Christian formation programs. It’s also a useful tool for parents and parish educators, and a handy reference for church newcomers.
