This week's new notice (see the link above for all the current listings):
A priest in charge of a small congregation in the south side of Glasgow, Scotland is looking for an exchange for two or three weeks in September 2001. He says: 'You would provide a Sung Eucharist at 10am on Sunday. If you were really generous, you would celebrate at 8.30am too! At most 50 communicants. You are welcome to live in our house, a little flat in the parish, with one double bedroom, a spare room with a double bed, a living/dining room, and small kitchen. Our car is available for touring. Loch Lomond is only 45 minutes away. In September we also host the Edinburgh Festival, and Edinburgh is 45 miles away. Glasgow is known as the European City of Culture, and European City of Architecture. There is lots to see and enjoy! We'd like some time in the States, a place to base ourselves, use of a car, and the opportunity for me to celebrate Mass on Sundays. Yes, we would jump at a place at the beach, or a lake, but beggars can't be choosers!' For more information, contact Kenneth Macaulay: kennethmacaulay@aol.com

Coleg y Groes: A small retreat house in North Wales, under the auspices of the Church in Wales but open to all. It is managed by two priests in the Church in Wales, who write: 'Together with 14 'companions', we form the Community of Coleg y Groes; in English 'College of the Cross'. 'College' refers to the 18th-century former almshouses that make up the retreat house; we're not an educational establishment!' It looks a delightful place. -- http://www.colegygroes.co.uk

Worth noting
'The Opening of the Evangelical Mind', by Alan Wolfe, in the October 2000 issue of The Atlantic Monthly (US). 'Of all America's religious traditions, the author writes, evangelical Protestantism, at least in the twentieth-century conservative forms, has long ranked "dead last in intellectual stature." Now evangelical thinkers are trying to revitalize their tradition. Can they turn an intellectual backwater into an intellectual beacon?' A thoughtful, interesting article. -- http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/2000/10/wolfe.htm
