The How2charist is a full-length digital instructed Eucharist, shot and edited by The Episcopal Church Office of Communication in partnership with the Office of Evangelism and How2charist creator, The Rev. Callie Swanlund.
A message from the creator:
How2charist is a resource for formation and evangelism based on the Rite II Eucharistic liturgy of The Episcopal Church. The film and guide were made in consultation with many Episcopal clergy and lay leaders, that it might capture core elements of the service which would be recognizable to all Episcopalians and follow and honor The Book of Common Prayer.
Since local custom and personal practice differ widely, there will be some parts that mirror your own experience and some which will seem completely foreign to your experience; the similarities and differences are great starting points for conversation with a leader at your local church (visit www.episcopalassetmap.org), a confirmation class, or an adult Christian formation group. You might find that you want to use this resource in one single session or as a series. We’ve broken down the Eucharist into four chapters for this purpose. Watch the chapter through and then discuss some of the available discussion questions ( iam.ec/How2cha... )-- adding questions from your own community -- or pause at various points to dive deeper into components of the liturgy.
God’s presence has been abundant in the creation of the How2charist, and my prayer is that you also encounter God as you engage with this film! This has been a communal effort, and I give great thanks for the gifts and voices of many who have made this dream a reality, and for you, fellow disciples on the journey.
Many thanks and blessings,
The Rev. Callie Swanlund
