First
time here?
Welcome! Start here to learn about being Anglican.
New
this week
A quick overview of the web sites and resources we've received -- and linked
-- in the last seven days.
Looking
for a parish?
We've got the biggest list of parishes and dioceses in the UK and Europe, Canada,
the USA, and around the world. And there's a page for Anglican-related denominations
not in communion with the See of Canterbury.
Looking
for Anglican resources?
You'll find comprehensive
general links for clergy and lay, pages for youth ministers and young
Anglicans, and a section on music.
Can't
get enough news?
Our News Centre has links to coverage of major Anglican news events, and
the Hot Issues page explores issues in more depth.
Feel
like chatting?
Join a discussion group, some of the liveliest spots in the Anglican Communion.
Want
to become a part?
Add a web site to
Anglicans Online or tell us what
you think. Or both!
Want
to know more?
Read about sponsors of Anglicans Online, the awards this site has won
(thanks, Tod!),
and the publicity it has received. |
Hallo again to all.
I was privileged yesterday to be at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. on
10 January at the investiture of Frank Tracy Griswold as the 25th Presiding Bishop
of the Episcopal Church in the USA. I'm sure many of you will be interested in the
service, and we link here
several resources already online, from a story in the
Washington Post to Bishop Griswold's sermon at the service,
the text of the Order
of Service, and photos from the Episcopal News Service.
I've written on my impressions of the service and included
a few photos I took from the 'media gallery', along with some smashing photos by
the Episcopal News Service.
Jumping from the US mainland to Australia, from the Sydney Morning Herald comes a
story about the unexpected decision by the appellate tribunal of the Anglican Church
of Australia regarding lay presidency at the Eucharist. I think
all of you will want to have a look at this.
From Canada we welcome the Diocese of Western Newfoundland, which
has come online with its home page. There are several US and Canadian parishes with
web pages as well this week.
The
life and work of Sister Lucia Wiley are explored in
a fascinating web page. If you don't know who she is (and I didn't), do have a look.
She is an artist particularly known for her splendid murals painted on the walls
of several municipal buildings in the Western United States. She worked in true fresco,
a daunting if spectacular technique.
'Anglo-Catholic
Central' is a new web site devoted to interests of
Anglo-Catholics round the world. There is a web forum, and several threads were going
quite strong when I looked earlier this eveniing. Whether or not you agree with the
particular emphasis of some of the postings, if you're interested in the heritage
of Anglo-Catholicism, you might want to have a look at the site.
Remember, as always, we're delighted to receive news of interesting web sites you
might find in your own browsing. You don't need to have a proprietary interest in
a page to bring it to our attention. Just use the 'Add a Site' form.
See you next week.
