Rev. Paul C. Hewett, SSC Diocese of the Holy Cross Forward in Faith/NA In his Address to the Assembly, Bishop Keith Ackerman said, “We are giving birth to the promise of a secure life as orthodox Anglicans in a new province which will be born next week in Fort Worth.” FiF/NA is now a two pronged effort: 1. Those who are associated and affiliated parishes, both in and out of TEC. This prong will be represented in ACNA. Its purpose will be to help TEC parishes get out, and to witness to the consensus of the undivided Church of the first millennium. 2. A Missionary Diocese of All Saints, in formation. Father William Ilgenfritz will be consecrated as its Bishop on August 22. This Diocese is one of the 28 jurisdictions in ACNA. The Missionary Diocese of All Saints will witness, along with many others in ACNA, to the consensus of the undivided Church of the first millennium. The Missionary Diocese of All Saints, along with other like minded dioceses, will be free to form a sub- province within ACNA, with the following safeguards, guaranteed by the ACNA Constitution and Canons: 1. Integrity of Holy Orders 2. Synod for the sub-province, as desired 3. Traditional Anglo-Catholic theological education 4. Separate ecumenical relations, if desired These are the safeguards that FiF/UK proposes for a third province of the C of E.

  • THE CERTAIN TRUMPET Newsletter of the Fellowship of Concerned Churchmen Winter 2015-2016 ♦ Wallace Spaulding, Editor
    THE CERTAIN TRUMPET Newsletter of the Fellowship of Concerned Churchmen Winter 2015-2016 ♦ Wallace Spaulding, Editor Who Supported The Fort Worth Congress? Forward in Faith, North America (FiF/NA), an organization that has consistently rejected revisions of historic holy order or doctrine, organized an International Catholic Congress of Anglicans this past July 13-17 in Fort Worth, Texas. Judging from sermons and talks given at the landmark meeting, its target audience appears to have been both the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA), within which most of FiF/NA now operates, and the Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON), which links ACNA and a number of Anglican Communion provinces, most of them in the global South. Galvanized within the last decade, mainly by the repeal of historic Christian teaching on homosexual practice in the U.S. Episcopal Church (TEC), both the ACNA and GAFCON contain elements that accept and that reject female priests. Thus, the resolution of this important difference along traditional lines would do much to clear the way for greater orthodox Anglican unity. The body referred to in the Congress' theme, “Restoring the Conciliar Church and her Mission” (italics added), of course had no women priests and reached its decisions by consensus of the whole group. The implied point of the theme is that positions taken by Ecumenical Councils recognized by the historic churches of the East and West – including that supporting an all-male priesthood – cannot properly be changed outside of that same authority.

  • Bp. Schofield - San Joaquin Exits Episcopal Church
    Bp. Schofield - San Joaquin Exits Episcopal Church Go to: => TOP Page; ROAD MAP; Search Page; What's New? Page; Emmaus Ministries Page Bishop John David Schofield Address at Diocesan Convention [COMMENT: The Episcopal Diocese of San Joaquin (California) will separate from the Episcopal Church to stay faithful to the Anglican Communion. Below is a good historical summary of why this event is taking place. What the Episcopal Church will do remains to be seen. Legal repercussions from the Episcopal leadership are almost for sure to happen to retain the diocesan property. Oddly, though they are clearly severing themselves from the Episcopal Church, or preparing to do so, they are saying that they are not. It is true that the Episcopal Church has long left the Christian faith, which is probably what they are referring to. Whether that will have any legal clout in court battles over property remains to be seen. Parishes have won their property in California, but a diocese has never been tested. Though I live in the Diocese of Los Angeles, I am a member of the Diocese of San Joaquin, and John David Schofield is my bishop. See Epilogue below, Episcopal Diocese Votes to Secede from Episcopal Church in the NY Times, and VirtueOnLine. E. Fox] Diocese of San Joaquin: December 1, 2006 THE BISHOP’S ADDRESS at the Forty-Seventh Annual Convention of the Diocese of San Joaquin St. James’ Cathedral, Fresno, California On trial for his life, the Apostle Paul began his defense before King Agrippa by saying: “I consider myself fortunate that it is before you, King Agrippa, I am to make my defense today against all the accusations of the Jews because you are especially familiar with all the customs and controversies of the Jews .

  • Rolling up Our Sleeves
    ROLLING UP OUR SLEEVES taking the pulse of our witness as traditional orthodox Anglicans by the Rt. Rev. Paul C. Hewett, SSC, Bishop of the Diocese of the Holy Cross Lent 2009 We look with gratitude to our inheritance from Christian Europe, and may reasonably ask whether this great civilization has a founder. If anyone could be said to have assembled, from the wreckage of the collapsed Roman Empire, the beginnings of a new Christian civilization, surely it is Benedict of Nursia in the 6th century, the Father of Western monasticism. The Benedictines build Christian Europe, and much of the Church in England. But the foundations of Christian civilization in the British Isles are laid by the Celtic Church from the first century A.D. The British Church joins forces with the Benedictines and converts the Anglo-Saxon invaders in the 7th century. King Alfred, in the 9th century, the only English king called “the Great,” is among their progeny. He saves Anglo-Saxon-Celtic Christianity from the barbarian Danes, and sets the stage for their conversion to Christ. He strengthens the Church and lays the foundation for what is to become the British Empire, an Empire so great that its language is today spoken throughout the world. The English language is distilled through centuries of worship with the Book of Common Prayer and the King James Bible, priceless gifts to the rest of the Body. When English spirituality, culture and freedom are threatened in our time by gnostic barbarism in Germany, God raises up Winston Churchill to save the Church and our civilization.
