The leading twentieth-century Anglican liturgical scholar, Gregory Dix, strongly supported the adoption of an offertory procession at the Eucharist by arguing that it had been a universal feature in the pre-Nicene Church intended to express the self-offering of the people. More recent research suggests that this was not the case, and that the people's gifts of bread and wine were more commonly handed in before the service began. In the light of this, can an offertory procession still be justified
