Noted This Week

Page Editor: Richard Mammana

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.

The Imago Dei Society. 'For the sake of our lives in Christ and for those who do not yet have a knowledge of God, we seek to be the Body of Christ with authenticity and integrity - all within our present social contexts of Post-Christendom, Postmodernism, and Post-Constantinianism. The way we deal with life, faith, and how it all fits together is how we become and carry the imago Dei (the image of God). We are within and work alongside the Diocese of Long Island, the Episcopal Church, and the Anglican Communion.'

A.K.M. Adam writes for The Living Church (Milwaukee).
