Week of 4 April 1999
Canada
What happens when an Anglican Church of Canada parish changes its name?
Well, first you need to consider the original naming
document. Then you need to have a bishop
agree to the change. After all this, your web
site can reflect the new (oops, the original) name. The true story
of the Parish of St Andrew, previously the Parish of Lachute.

News
Centre
There is a breathtaking amount of Anglican news this week, even ignoring
the lead story of the empty tomb in Jerusalem. Usually I try to be slightly
flip when writing this summary of the weekly news, but on Easter Sunday
I just cannot do it. Three important Christian essays top your must-read
list, by the Bishop of London, the Archbishop of Armagh, and the Archbishop
of York. The Anglican Communion observer at the United Nations has resigned.
A small but forward-looking English parish church plans to use the web
to report on the pastoral visit of their bishop. We have found some conservative
points of view on the Brockton story and added them to our coverage of
it. All this and much more in the News Centre.

not really a seminary, although many undergrads go there to study Classics
as a kind of "pre-divinity" degree; but it is an Anglican foundation,
and maintains a very active chapel with impeccable Anglo-Catholic liturgies.'
