Hope In The Midst Of The Tempest

As we weather the Anglican Tempest in a Teapot, there are some glimmers of hope.

For instance, this story posted on Clerical Whispers about four denominations that will share a church building in a new suburb of Dublin. I read Clerical Whispers on a regular basis. The author is a Roman Catholic Priest, but while most of the stories are about the RC Church, his blog does cover things Anglican as well. The outside perspective is interesting.

Episcopal Life Online has a piece by Doug LeBlanc that you should read. Actually, almost anything Doug writes is well worth reading. When he writes news, it is balanced and well researched. When he writes commentary, it is thoughtful and insightful. I've broken bread with Doug, and he's one of those folks I always hope to get to know better.

Then there's this article from a newspaper in Washington state (hat tip to Episcopal Cafe): Five Things To Know About Being An Episcopalian.

Finally, this article from The Telegraph about the House of Bishops in England dealing with the issue of women bishops. And not backing away from it!

And now back to bailing out the teacups.

Peace,
Jeffri
