  • Not English, but Anglican’
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-00866-2 - A History of Global Anglicanism Kevin Ward Excerpt More information chapter 1 Introduction: ‘not English, but Anglican’ The Anglican communion describes itself as a ‘fellowship’ or ‘commu- nion’ of autonomous Christian churches, united by a common history, confessing a common faith and (traditionally) a common liturgy. There are thirty-eight distinct and independent Anglican churches or ‘pro- vinces’, existing in a particular country or spread over a number of countries. Provinces vary in size from the big churches such as the Church of England (26 million baptised members), the Church of Nigeria (17.5 million), the Church of Uganda (8 million) and the Episcopal Church of Sudan (5 million) to the tiny communities of the Southern Cone of America (22,490), Mexico (21,000), the Anglican Church of Korea (14,558) and the Episcopal Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East 1 (10,000). This book is an attempt to write a history of the Anglican communion from its inception as a worldwide faith, at the time of the Reformation, to the present day. While it does not ignore the contribution of the Church of England or of those of British extraction who have established Anglican churches in other parts of the world, its emphasis is on the activity of the indigenous peoples of Asia and Africa, Oceania and America in creating and shaping the Anglican communion. In the British Isles, attention is paid to Welsh, Irish and Scottish contributions, not least because they played a disproportionate part in the establishment of Anglican churches in other parts of the world, both as colonists and as missionaries.

  • Prayer Diary
    Anglican Diocese of Grafton Prayer Diary 2020 A LETTER FROM THE BISHOP Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, In 1 Kings 18:41-46 we read about Elijah’s prayer on Mount Carmel. He “climbed to the top of Mount Carmel and bowed himself down upon the earth and prayed with his face between his knees”. For those of us who don’t do Yoga or Pilates, Elijah’s prayer posture does not sound very comfortable or even achievable. It does however speak of the intensity and authenticity of his prayer. One Christian writer on prayer says that from this passage we know that Elijah was not putting on a front or trying to hide his feelings. He was praying authentically. The Scriptures underline the importance of a personal prayer life that is authentic and genuine (e.g. Matthew 6:5-6). We get to know a person by spending time with them and understanding their concerns, desires and perspective. The same can be said for our relationship with God. Prayer is fundamentally relational, as we spend time with God, cultivating our relationship with him and genuinely listening for his will in all that we bring before him. C.S. Lewis spoke of this relational nature of prayer, of the need to pray in all circumstances: “I pray because I can’t help myself” he wrote, “I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping”. The ministries that are listed in this Prayer Diary are many and varied. As we bring them before God day by day in our personal and corporate prayers, let us genuinely seek his will in all that is done in his name.

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.
