While this is a terrible departure from the model of the Catechumenate I remind myself that the Catechetical lectures of St. Cyril of Jerusalem were addressed to the already-Baptized, explaining the mysteries they had experienced at the Easter Vigil.

Is this offensive? Somewhat, but certainly far less than the "open Communion" advocated in some quarters in which Baptism is a precondition for receiving the Eucharist.

I wonder if this Rector plans follow-up catechesis in the manner of St. Cyril?

sacramental rather than confessional. "We don't ask if you believe what we believe. We ask if you will break bread with us before the Lord."

Apparently, I don't have to believe anything in order to be a good ECUSA member. All I have to do is show up. Explains a lot!
