Tax problems for enterprising English priests. It's Mothering Sunday in

Charles gets off a zinger to Abp Carey on a tour there. Pastoral letter
on 'Stolen Children' in Australia. Canadian Archbishop speaks out about
the church lawsuits there. A top English theologian revises his stance
on what the Bible means. ECUSA leaders cheer settlement in hotel discrimination
lawsuit. A Dean of Durham Cathedral dies. All this, and more, in the News

This would be among the worst solecisms for The Times* to commit. The
correct style is the Rev Joseph Brown, thereafter Mr Brown'. -- http://www.the-times.co.uk/styleguide/styleguidechurches.html

News
Centre
Lutherans organize opposition to historic episcopate. Bishop of Torres
Strait dies. No news from Portugal, but the press releases are flying
anyhow. Desmond Tutu clears the way for England to copy Scotland. The
Bishop of Ely speaks to the press some more. Christian Science Monitor
writes on English remarriage. English bishop angry about bank closings.
Anglicans to evangelize door-to-door. Prince Harry confirmed (no surprise?)
an Anglican. All this, and more, in the News Centre. But since your News
Centre editor is curently chaperoning a group of 100 13-year-olds on a
school trip 2500 miles from home, there's not all that much more in the
News Centre.
