WHENEVER WE LEARN about a web site that we haven't previously listed, we note it here. Sometimes such sites are brand new and sometimes they have been around for a while without our having noticed. We list two 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. We do not mention on this page remakes of sites that are already in our listings.

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. If you still can't find it, please let us know.

If you would like your website listed at Anglicans Online, please use this form to tell us about it.

Worth Noting
The Church of England and Islam: Richard Sudworth is writing a series of articles for Fulcrum on the history of contacts and controversy between Anglicans and Muslims. Parts One, Two, and Three are available online; the fourth is yet to come.

A better future for the Anglican Communion?: Savi Hensman writes for Ekklesia. 'This research paper describes the background, examines the evidence on which the Archbishop's main points are based, discusses their implications, and corrects some mistaken assumptions about history and practice. Inter alia it tackles a number of key theological issues. It suggests that a two-level Communion would be practically and spiritually harmful and suggests a different approach, less focused on institutional structures, that could be more effective in addressing divisions and ultimately enabling Anglicans to move towards a deeper unity.'

USPG Action on HIV: 'The impact is of the HIV epidemic is enormous – but there is hope. Anglican Churches throughout the world are praying for change and supporting people through a huge range of programmes. What’s distinctive about the Anglican contribution is that, in many rural communities, the Anglican Church is the only source of healthcare.' Read more about it here.
