High Church
Definition of High Church
two
ecclesiastical
parties
in
the
Church
of
England
and
the
Protestant
Episcopal
Church
.
The
high-churchmen
emphasize
the
doctrine
of
the
apostolic
succession
,
and
hold
,
in
general
,
to
a
sacramental
presence
in
the
Eucharist
,
to
baptismal
regeneration
,
and
to
the
sole
validity
of
Episcopal
ordination
.
They
attach
much
importance
to
ceremonies
and
symbols
in
worship
.
Low-churchmen
lay
less
stress
on
these
points
,
and
,
in
many
instances
,
reject
altogether
the
peculiar
tenets
of
the
high-church
school
.

Broad Church
