Frank Myers Mr. John Westbrook Mr. Larry Rice Staff Excused Ms. Flora Galbraith, Project and Relief Manager Welcome and Introductions—Bill Haley • Rev. Bill Cobb, rector of St. Clement’s Anglican Church, welcomed ARDF to El Paso. • (Re) Introductions of Simon Glass, Cindy Pennington, and Andrew Rowell, new ARDF-US trustees; and Michael Tweedle, new executive director of ARDF-Canada • Self-Introductions of those in attendance Opening Prayers—Bill Haley Mark 4:26–34. ARDF is a seed-scatterer for the Kingdom: We take the little bit that we have, scatter it in faith, and know that God will grow it. Approved 05/14/2020 February 20, 2020 Page 1 of 11 Update from Archbishop Foley Beach Pray for the large number of transitions of key leaders around the world. • Just returned from SE Asia for the installation of the new archbishop, the Rt. Rev. Melter Tais. • Will be in Uganda next week for the installation of the new archbishop, the Rt. Rev. Stephen Kazimba; invited to lead a personal retreat prior to and preach at the installation. • Will go to Kenya the next day to be with Abp. Sapit. • Going to Sudan March 4 to speak with Ezekiel Kondo, participate in meetings set up with government, and lead a teaching session. • Will be going to Egypt and meet with Bp. Mouneer. • Two to three weeks later will be in Nigeria for the installation of a new primate, the Most Rev. Henry Ndukuba. • Upcoming retirements include the bishops in Malaysia, Singapore, and Egypt. Abp. Foley wants to educate incoming bishops about the global picture so that they will not fall prey to the gifts, invitations, and wealth that will come their way from others who do not hold orthodox beliefs (e.g., Canterbury, TEC). Recently attended and upcoming meetings • Abp. Foley expressed concerned about the July primates meeting, Lambeth, in which bishops living immoral lifestyles have been invited, legitimizing their lifestyle, as well as for the downward trajectory of the Church of England, which released a statement on marriage that it would not recognize same-sex unions. It then apologized for the statement two days later. • GAFCON bishops are sponsoring a meeting in June for those who feel like they cannot go to Lambeth for conscience sake. • Abp. Foley reported that, at GAFCON last year, Campus Crusade for Christ distributed more than 300 backpacks with portable, solar-powered projectors and the Jesus film in the language of the people (worth $1.2 million). Subsequently, the Christian Motorcycle Association donated a backpack and motorcycle to an evangelist in each diocese in Rwanda. Since then, more than 4,000 people have accepted Christ and 12,000 have re-dedicated their lives. • In 2021, GAFCON will sponsor a NextGen conference in Recife, Brazil, to reach the 20- and 30- somethings. State of Anglicanism • Internationally, things are in flux as the “Western virus” of revisionism is following the money trails and is a real challenge. • ACNA is doing great. God is doing awesome things. The ACNA is planting a new church every eight to nine days and just released the new catechism. • Abp. Foley asked us to pray that God would give him a fresh anointing, help him to walk in the spirit, and provide strength. Business Actions—Bill Haley and Nancy Skancke Nancy Skancke made a motion to approve the September 26, 2019, (Ridgecrest, NC) minutes. Andrew Rowell seconded. The motion carried without dissent. Approved 05/14/2020 February 20, 2020 Page 2 of 11 Update from Selection Committee for new executive director Committee members (Bill Haley, Nancy Skancke, David Soutter, Frank Woods, and John Westbrook) held biweekly meetings and followed a timeline to ensure the new ED will be in place no later than June 1 in order to have a one-month overlap with Bill Deiss. The Committee received 32 applications, which were read by every committee member and then narrowed down to the top 15 candidates. Each committee member will conduct three interviews apiece, using the questions and evaluations developed in a three-step process: 1. Process Document: Describes each step of what the committee is doing and where approvals come in. 2. Interview Documents: All candidates will be asked the same questions and be evaluated using the same rubric. 3. Final interview in Ambridge. Recently Approved Projects—Frederick Barasa Bread-making project, Machakos, Kenya Anglican Development Services-Eastern (Kenya) and ARDF-Kenya Charitable Trust Bringing economic empowerment to impact 3,000 farmers in the community, the bakery will produce 10,000 loaves per day that will be delivered by three trucks on established routes in four dioceses. • Approved in June 2019, the ARDF-US grant totals $162,829. As the relief and development arm of the Anglican Diocese in Kenya, ADS-Eastern is also funding about the same amount of money. We have $60,000 going into the Charitable Trust—$35,000 from the poultry farm and $25,000 from the food mill. We need to raise $100,000 more, which will be from Kenyan donors new to ARDF-US that have been provided by the ADS donor list. • Deiss visited the bakery on December 4, 2019. It has the capacity to expand to three times its size. • ADS-Eastern still needs to complete the legal organization of the bread operation. We are suggesting the Anglican provincial church in Kenya and ARDF-Kenya Charitable Trust become the parents of the factory in proportion to their investment. As nonprofits, they can avoid paying the value added tax (VAT) of roughly 40 percent. (Please see 03/31/2020 Addendum at the end of these minutes.) • ADS-Eastern will be requesting bids to conduct a detailed bread market study. • The bakery will have a technical assistance contract with Supa Festive LTD. • The goal is to have the joint venture incorporated by the end of April 2020. • ADS is thankful for the new model of generating its own money (sustainable) instead of relying on grants. House of Hope school expansion, Diocese of Recife, Brazil The project is fully funded, and the expansion is now under construction. We have reviewed the first progress report and are preparing to send the second phase of funding. Approved 05/14/2020 February 20, 2020 Page 3 of 11 New Project Initiative, Cascading Ministries—Bill Deiss and Bill Haley The Cascading Ministry model can be used for an XTorch to provide light or a Streams water tablet to provide clean drinking water. As the initial proof of concept phase, the cascade is made up of four levels: ARDF-US, ARDF-Kenya Province, Anglican Church of Kenya Diocese, and the local parish church. • We raise money here in the United States to start the cascading action. The cost to ARDF-US for an XTorch is $30, which is below market cost. US donors contribute $60 toward that purchase. The $30 surplus covers our overhead including transport and customs. • ARDF-Kenya (province) buys it from ARDF-US for $15. Kenyan donors give $30 toward that purchase, generating a $15 surplus for the province. • Anglican Church of Kenya (diocese) buys the XTorch from ARDF-Kenya for $7.50. A donor in the diocese gives $15 toward the purchase, generating a $7.50 surplus for the diocese. • The local parish church purchases the XTorch from the diocese for $5. A community member pays $10 to buy the XTorch for his own use, generating a surplus of $5 for the church. The cascading model generates funds for the church without going through a government structure. A suggestion was made to add the ARDF logo or a slogan, “Jesus is the light of the world” (XTorch) or “Springs of Living Water” (Streams). ARDF-US will be creating a video for use in churches, and Bill Deiss will promote the Cascading Ministry products in his Lenten letter. Break/Group photo Review of ARDF Development Project Approval Process For the sake of new trustees, the Development Project approval process was summarized: A province submits an application to ARDF-US for funding of a development project. Bill Deiss and Frederick Barasa review the application and the diocesan annual report and research the proposed project’s sustainability. After affirmation by the US Board of Trustees that are deemed meritorious, the proposed projects are brought before the Global Council where the Global Council decides which proposed projects are to go forward for funding. The function of ARDF-US is to fundraise development projects approved by the Global Council. As of the date of the meeting, ARDF-US has six development projects that have been approved but not yet fully funded. KCEP Update—John Macdonald Tumaini students Despite many of the children at Tumaini being first-generation children going to school, Tumaini students consistently score among the highest out of all 20 primary schools in the district.

  • Diocese in Europe Prayer Diary, July to December 2011
    DIOCESE IN EUROPE PRAYER DIARY, JULY TO DECEMBER 2011 This calendar has been compiled to help us to pray together for one another and for our common concerns. Each chaplaincy, with the communities it serves, is remembered in prayer once a year, according to the following pattern: Eastern Archdeaconry - January, February Archdeaconry of France - March, April Archdeaconry of Gibraltar - May, June Diocesan Staff - July Italy & Malta Archdeaconry - July Archdeaconry of North West Europe - August, September Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe Nordic and Baltic Deanery - September, October Germany - November Swiss Archdeaconry - November, December Each Archdeaconry, with its Archdeacon, is remembered on a Sunday. On the other Sundays, we pray for subjects which affect all of us (e.g. reconciliation, on Remembrance Sunday), or which have local applications for most of us (e.g. the local cathedral or cathedrals). Some chaplains might like to include prayers for the other chaplaincies in their deanery. We also include the Anglican Cycle of Prayer (daily, www.aco.org), the World Council of Churches prayer cycle (weekly, www.oikoumene.org, prayer resources on site), the Porvoo Cycle (weekly, www.porvoochurches.org), and festivals and commemorations from the Common Worship Lectionary (www.churchofengland.org/prayer-worship/worship/texts.aspx).

    A Glorious and Salutiferous Œconomy...? An ecclesiological enquiry into metropolitical authority and provincial polity in the Anglican Communion Alexander John Ross Emmanuel College A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Divinity Faculty University of Cambridge April 2018 This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text.

It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the Faculty of Divinity Degree Committee. 2 Alexander John Ross A Glorious and Salutiferous Œconomy…? 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.
