Noted This Week

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
Occupy the Cathedral: Our friends at Thinking Anglicans provide a useful roundup of web-coverage related to Occupy protests in London as related to St Paul's Cathedral.

Skeletons in the Sacristy: '"Most parishes do have stuff in their closets," says Speed Leas of the Alban Institute and a specialist in parish conflict. "Some have worked through it, and had substantial growth. But if you have a place that calls a lot of rectors and just runs through them, or clergy say 'that's a tough place,' then you have a place that needs some attention."' The Revd Lindsay Hardin Freeman writes for Vestry Papers.
