Anglican
Birders listserv: 'Members of the worldwide Anglican Communion
who take the observation of Proverbs seriously:
"There are four things that are too mysterious
for me to understand: an eagle flying in the
sky... [Proverbs 30:19a]. A list for Anglicans
fascinated by the birds of the air in any way'.
Liturgical
resources
Revised
Common Lectionary on your desktop: 'Put
(shortened) lectionary readings on your desktop with a link to
the full lectionary
readings. Or add the readings to your websites by adding just
a few lines of code to your HTML'. The feeds are currently the
Authorised Version,
but the developer hopes to obtain permission to switch over
to NRSV. Very clever. Alas, at the present time, only works for PCs,
not Macs, and only in Windows 2000 and XP.
Music
An
enquiry from an AO reader. Can any musicians assist? If so, write
to the enquirer directly.
'I am
a church musician in the United States who is now involved with
an instrumental ensemble. I know about bands from performing
in high school,
but have come to recognize the dearth of material for instrumental
ensembles, especially woodwind ensembles, performing for
a church function. I was
wondering if anyone had any information about or music for
a church instrumental ensemble. Thank you. Musicalise@aol.com'.
