Noted This Week

Page manager: Richard Mammana

WHENEVER WE LEARN about a web site that we haven't previously listed, we note it here. Sometimes 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.

Exchanges
'I am an organist at a small Lutheran church in Fort Worth, Texas (40 minutes west of Dallas). My family and I are seeking a organ/house swap this summer. Organ duties are very limited during the summer, often just Sunday mornings are required. I am a choir director, organist and pianist and we have a 3 bedroom home in the little town of Aledo and are looking for an adventure for as little as a week or as much as a month in July. If you fancy some time in Texas this summer and have an organ/choir position and a home we could trade for a spell, please contact me. We'd love to swap with someone in England, but even someplace close to our home would be a fun adventure. We'd entertain anything for the opportunity to travel and share music somewhere new for a time. I can be reached at organswap@hansgrim.com.'
