  • September 2013 Remember the Sabbath
    ANGLICAN JOURNAL Inspiring the faithful since 1875 vol. 139 no. 7 september 2013 Remember the Sabbath September seems to be all about gearing up for back to school, back to work, back to the rat race after the fleeting reprieve of summer holidays (if you had any). The promise that computers and labour-saving technology would mean more leisure time for everyone now seems laughable in the face of statistics that clearly show most people are working harder and longer than ever. In the midst of that busyness, and the stress that comes with it, the Journal poses the question, have we forgotten Sabbath? “Remember the Sabbath day, and keep it holy. For six days you shall labour and do all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work” is the fourth commandment (Ex. 20:8–10a), but what does it mean in a society that can shop, work and chatter online 24/7? What have we lost? What does it cost? What is the church’s role in calling people to keep the Sabbath? —Leigh Anne Williams See RX, p. 8 Drop thy still dews of quietness, till all our strivings cease; take from our souls the strain and stress, and let our ordered lives confess the beauty of thy peace. Hymn 455, Common Praise MARKS OF MISSION PHOTO CONTEST FINALIST JOYCE COUVRETTE an ‘APPALLING, INHUMANE’ EXPERIMENT MARRIAGE MOTION CONTROVERSIAL On July 16, several publications various groups, including the church, carried a Canadian Press (CP) story for a federal investigation into the For some Canadian Anglicans, General Synod’s about Ian Mosby, a historian from the matter.

  • Team Ministries in Anglican Parishes in the Maritime Provinces of Canada: Considerations for Formation and Development
    Team Ministries in Anglican Parishes in the Maritime Provinces of Canada: Considerations for Formation and Development by Peter Lloyd Armstrong A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Wycliffe College and the Toronto School of Theology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Ministry awarded by Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto © Copyright by Peter Armstrong 2015 "Team Ministries in Anglican Parishes in the Maritime Provinces of Canada: Considerations for Formation and Development" Peter Lloyd Armstrong Doctor of Ministry Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto 2015 Abstract Within the Canadian Maritime provinces, the Anglican Church is grappling with how best to exercise ministry in this evolving environment. One alternative parish model is a team ministry model. Team ministries are characterized by more than one person in the position of leadership carrying out ministry in overlapping roles in the same parish environment, functioning in a non-hierarchical manner. The goal of the research was to learn how team ministries may be better formed and maintained in the future. This thesis opens by identifying sources which can provide insight about how team ministries may be better formed and maintained. It looks at writings from the early Church (particularly parts of the New Testament), and practices of "team ministry" in other Anglican provinces. It also draws from the field of Occupational Psychology. The bulk of the research for this thesis was a grounded theory qualitative research study, undertaken among participants in team ministries in two Anglican dioceses. The research was distilled into five broad categories: Dispositions, Theological Perspectives and Traits; Ordination and Team Formation; Parishes; Social and Spiritual Disciplines; and Support Beyond the Parish.
