ALL THE NEW URLS we receive each week are here. We list two (sometimes three) weeks' worth, cycling the old ones off each week. As they disappear from this page, you'll find the links moved to their natural home categories in our resource pages.

If you can't find something that was once here, you can look in our archives or try the AO search engine. It searches our entire site, and it can also search all of the sites that we link to.

News Centre
Use of the word 'bishop' as an insult. Newspaper articles on choosing the next Archbishop, organ donation, Richard Holloway, social justice, hats, and text messages. All African Anglican Conference on HIV/AIDS. On being a Protestant in Ireland. Andrew Brown on Emanuel Milingo. Rob Brown on journalism vs Christianity. Thomas Bayes makes the news. Jerusalem (the hymn, not the city) still haunts the news. Something about Accokeek and about Lutheran ordinations and about Alpha. All this, and precious little more, in the News Centre.

We have also recently added 59 Sermons by George Whitefield, Bishop Hugh Latimer's "Sermons on the Card and Other Discourses", and another sermon "Thou Canst Make Me Clean"'.

St Deiniol's Library: In Hawarden, Wales, St Deiniol's, Britain's only residential library, was founded by William Ewart Gladstone.

An online catalogue is expected in 2002.
