…about ad orientem in Anglican/Episcopal and Lutheran churches. I know that it is not infrequently used, particularly in High Church Anglicanism. I was doing an idle (procrastinating) search for images and was rather surprised by the numer of images for altars in Lutheran churches that came up that clearly looked as if they were set up for ad orientem posture, even in church buildings of a contemporary style, like this one from this Missouri Synod Lutheran church in NC. Or this one from an Illinois Missouri Synod church.

Would we be more likely to see this in the Missouri Synod?

Enlighten me….
