It has tried to do this in an open and honest way. It has tried to do this within a reasonable cost structure, that at times, sees some stories and pictures print- ed and others not. As chair of the Bishop’s Publisher’s Advisory Board (PAB), Canon Stirling said when the budget synod adjourns on Jan. 8, the Niagara Anglican must be granted a budget in order to pro- ceed into the new year. Without a diocesan subsidy of as much as $36,000, the newspaper may fold. Undaunted by the grim reality of losing its subsidy, volun- teer members of the PAB – Canon Charles Stirling, former gen- eral manager of Brabant Newspapers, a chain of weeklies in Hamilton; The Rev.

With a proven background in advertising and promo- tion, Ted has taken on the challenge – on a commissioned basis – of saving the newspaper by bringing in more revenue through advertising. Ted operates his own company in Thorold-St Catharines, and is a member of St. John, Thorold. (Ted is featured in this month’s Getting to Know You column on page 8.) Ted is confident that with combinations in the development of area advertising pages, calling on suppliers or services which need more than the local market, and aggressively going after national advertising, there will be a marked turn-around and increase in revenue. PAB member John Janisse said the group is being proactive in attempting to save the newspaper.

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.
