The OECD is also at the forefront of efforts to understand and to help governments respond to new developments and concerns, such as corporate governance, the information economy and the challenges of an ageing population. The Organisation provides a setting where governments can compare policy experiences, seek answers to common problems, identify good practice and work to co-ordinate domestic and international policies. The OECD member countries are: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States.

About the EaP GREEN programme The “Greening Economies in the European Union’s Eastern Neighbourhood” (EaP GREEN) programme aims to support the six Eastern Partnership countries to move towards green economy by decoupling economic growth from environmental degradation and resource depletion.

The New Ministers Manual
The New Ministers Manual Paul W. Powell Unless otherwise identified, scripture quotations are from the Holy Bible, King James Version. Scripture identified from the New American Standard Bible, Copyright the Lockman Foundation 1960, 1962, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973,1975,1977. Copyright 1994 Paul W. Powell All Rights Reserved ii Dedicated to The Students of Truett Seminary and all other young people on whom the mantle of ministry will fall iii iv PREFACE Thomas Jefferson once described the presidency as “a splendid misery.” I think that is an apt description of the ministry. I know of no calling that is more rewarding, and at the same time, more demanding than being a minister. The modern minister faces a multitude of tasks that are both exciting and exacting. He must conduct funerals and weddings, often on the same day. He must be a scholar, a public speaker, an educator, a financier, a CEO, a personnel manager, a shepherd and a personal counselor. While still a student at Baylor University I became pastor of an open country church. I soon found myself confronted with many things I had seen and even been a part of in my home church, but to which I paid little attention until I was called on to do them myself. In the next 34 years I pastored churches of all sizes, my last church having more than 7,000 members. As I became pastor of larger churches I would ask young ministers to assist me in funerals, weddings, baptisms, so they could learn firsthand what to do. What I have recorded in this book are some of the things I tried to teach them. -

412 Stephen Spencer, Anglicanism
412 Book Reviews / Ecclesiology 8 (2012) 389–420 Stephen Spencer, Anglicanism (SCM Study Guide Series, London: SCM, 2010). ix + 229 pp. £16.99. ISBN 978-0-334-04337-9 (pbk). When I was an English Anglican ordinand (late 1980s), I received four and a half hours explicit teaching on Anglicanism in three years full time train- ing. When I returned to teach at a theological college five years later, I was (I think) the first person appointed to an English Anglican theological col- lege with an explicit brief to teach Anglicanism. Since then there has been a modest explosion in the teaching of Anglicanism and in teaching resources. This latest resource, in the SCM study guide series, is a sign that teaching Anglicanism is now a mainstream commitment. There was once a deep reluctance to teach ‘Anglicanism’, partly because of significant scepticism that such a thing really existed – a scepticism which is still very much alive in England even if most of the rest of the Communion regards this scepticism as nonsensical – and perhaps also because we were anxious that actually trying to teach Anglicanism would expose its divisions and contradictions. However, certainly in England, we can no longer assume that students of Anglicanism are cradle Anglicans; we cannot assume that people will carry ‘proper’ Anglicanism in their DNA. If they are to live and minister fruitfully within the Anglican context, they must have an opportunity to study Anglicanism rigorously. Some of the ten- sions in the Anglican Communion and the Church of England are simply a result of unreflective assumptions about the content and methods of Anglicanism. -

Can My Church Benefit from a CARES Act Forgivable Loan?
I hope this finds you well and living confidently into the times. Congress passed and the President signed the CARES Act this past Friday, March 27, 2020. I write to share specific information from the CARES Act that answers some of the questions that I have heard being asked. Can my church benefit from a CARES Act forgivable loan? This question is on the minds of most pastors and church leaders since the passage of the $2 trillion relief package. As I continue to participate in some and receive information from other webcasts and conference calls across the connection, there are some things you can begin to do to prepare to apply for the loan program. While I do not encourage you to borrow funds for normal operating expenses, it appears that this loan has the potential to become a grant that you would not need to repay. Attorneys and accountants are studying the bill and awaiting guidelines from the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the U.S. Treasury on how the CARES Act will be administered. However, it appears that churches and non-profits may be able to borrow money that could be completely forgiven if they maintain their previous 12-month staffing levels through June of 2020. Key Provisions: • Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) - Eligible churches and non-profits will be able to borrow up to 2.5 times their average monthly payroll and benefits up to $100,000. While this appears to cap the amount to approximately $40,000 of monthly current costs, it is not yet known if that is for all employees in the salary-paying entity or per person. -
Guidelines for Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion
GUIDELINES FOR EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF HOLY COMMUNION The ministry of distributing Holy Communion is the responsibility of priests and deacons. It is understood that at regularly scheduled parish Masses, concelebrating priests and the deacons present and assisting at that Mass (unless impeded by physical reasons or other sufficient cause) will participate in the distribution of Holy Communion. If these ordinary ministers are not sufficient to distribute the Sacrament within a reasonable amount of time, then extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion may be invited to assist them. Canon 910.2: The extraordinary minister of Holy Communion is an acolyte or other member of the Christian faithful deputed in accord with Canon 230.3. Canon 230.3: When the need of the Church warrants it and ministers are lacking, lay persons, even if they are not lectors or acolytes, can also supply certain of their duties, namely, to exercise the ministry of the word, to preside over liturgical prayers, to confer baptism, and to distribute Holy Communion in accord with the prescripts of the law. The following policies are to be followed in the Archdiocese of New Orleans in regard to these extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion in parish celebrations. In instances other than parochial settings, the Office of Worship will be consulted. 1. Only adults (18 years and older) are to serve as extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion. Special permission has been granted by Archbishop Gregory M. Aymond which permits High School seniors to serve as extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion after completing specialized training. This special permission expires upon graduation. -
