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
Advent Chapel: 'The Anglican Diocese of Montreal has created an oasis of peace for you in the midst of a hectic mall. Right in the Promenades de la Cathédrale, along the corridor that runs parallel to Union Street, is a quiet area where you can escape the chaos. It’s a place where you can unwind, pray, meditate, or have a spiritual conversation over a hot drink.'

Advent Letter: 'The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has sent [an] Advent letter to the Primates of the Anglican Communion and Moderators of the United Churches.' Commentary by Thinking Anglicans is here.
