It should be viewed as being in conjunction with a study programme laid out as a series of three sessions for use either by groups or individuals. Also, for ease of access, an executive summary of the Guide is available. The study of all three texts, it is hoped, will be undertaken in a prayerful spirit and the following Collect may be helpful: Most merciful God, you have created us, male and female, in your own image, and have borne the cost of all our judgments in the death of your Son; help us so to be attentive to the voices of Scripture, of humanity and of the Holy Spirit, that we may discern your will within the issues of our time, and, respectful both of conscience and of conviction, may direct our common life towards the perfection of our humanity that is in Christ alone, in whom truth and love are one. We ask this in his name.

  • The Anglican Communion and the Globalization of Dissent Dissertation Written by Dr
    Episcopal Dissidents, African Allies: The Anglican Communion and the Globalization of Dissent Dissertation written by Dr. Miranda K. Hassett [email protected] For the Department of Anthropology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill May 2004 Please do not cite in print without author’s consent. A revised and shortened version of this text is under contract for publication with Princeton University Press. Reproduced online through http://anglicanhistory.org, January 2006. 1 Abstract In recent years, conservative dissidents within the Episcopal Church in the United States have felt alienated by the Episcopal Church’s liberal policies, especially acceptance of homosexuality. In response, these Episcopal dissidents have increasingly sought and received help and support from Anglican bishops in the global South (Africa, Asia, and Latin America). In this dissertation, the development and dynamics of these transnational Anglican alliances are examined anthropologically, on the basis of ethnographic research with Anglican communities involved in such relationships in Uganda and the United States. These relationships are often explained, by both supporters and critics, through narratives of increased global conflict between liberal Northern Christianity and conservative Southern Christianity (with which conservative Northerners are said to have a natural affinity). This work questions such narratives, first, by presenting the situations, concerns, and motives of the Northern and Southern Anglicans involved and calling into question assumptions

An ecclesiological enquiry into metropolitical authority and provincial polity in the Anglican Communion. Abstract For at least the past two decades, international Anglicanism has been gripped by a crisis of identity: what is to be the dynamic between autonomy and interdependence? Where is authority to be located? How might the local relate to the international? How are the variously diverse national churches to be held together ‘in communion’? These questions have prompted an explosion of interest in Anglican ecclesiology within both the church and academy, with particular emphasis exploring the nature of episcopacy, synodical government, liturgy and belief, and common principles of canon law.

  • An Introduction to World Anglicanism
    AN INTRODUCTION TO WORLD ANGLICANISM What is the nature of world Anglicanism in a postcolonial, global age? With talk of fragmentation constantly in the media, what does it mean to be ‘Anglican’? This book presents Anglicanism as a conversation over time amongst a community of people held together by sets of practices and beliefs. The first part describes the emergence of Anglicanism and its foun- dations in older Christian traditions. The second looks at Anglican practices within the framework of changing understandings of mission, and focuses on liturgy, patterns of engagement with others, organisation and power in the church, and ministerial offices. There are two separate chapters on the ordination of women and homosexuality in the public life of the church. The third part, on beliefs, addresses the central question of knowledge and authority in Anglicanism, as well as ecclesi- ology, the nature of the church itself. A final chapter looks to the future. BRUCE KAYE was General Secretary of the Anglican Church of Australia from 1994 to 2004. He is a cosmopolitan scholar and priest who, after studying in Sydney and taking his doctorate in Basel, held a post in the Theology Department at the University of Durham in the UK for twelve years before returning to the University of New South Wales in Australia. His visiting fellowships include periods in Freiburg-im-Breisgau, Cambridge and Seattle, and he is a regular visitor to North America. He is the author of eight books, editor of ten further volumes, and has written some sixty journal articles as well as contributing to newspapers, radio and TV.

Cavan and Archdeacon of Kilmore Diocese, was having a conversation with his daughter Laura, a second year Business Studies student in Dublin City University. They were reflecting on how hard the year had been and how much she as a student had lost out on and how much as communities we had missed in 2020 and will miss at Christmas.

Laura casually remarked to her dad that he had been thinking about doing a Christmas Tree festival in the Church of Ireland grounds in Virginia for a while now and maybe this year was the year to do it. Encouraged by Laura and his wife Vida, Craig sounded out some parishioners and members of the wider community who were cautious but enthusiastic about the idea. Within 10 days, 52 Christmas trees were delivered to the Rectory and a week later the trees were up in the church grounds. Craig reached out to local businesses, organisations, sporting groups and church groups with the idea and invited them to sponsor and decorate individual trees along the grounds which became known as the ‘Avenue of Light’.
