A response to the misleading story posted on the Diocese of Toronto’s website on 6 March 2008 The story written by Stuart Mann and posted to the Diocese of Toronto website March 6 contains inaccuracies and innuendo that demand a response.

Update: The radio announcement said that the 10:00 service at St. George’s was cancelled. St. George’s doesn’t have a 10:00 service. The service that was cancelled was the “alternate” service at the old schoolhouse, but the radio announcement did not make that clear. Piece has been edited for clarity By email: There were radio announcements [...]

Just thought I’d link for general interest to this hit piece here. The author has a half-hearted attempt at claiming some kind of middle ground, but doesn’t really try too hard. Most of the time is spent bashing: Those on the far right, who call themselves orthodox Anglicans As opposed to: those on the far [...]

As some of you may know, and has been reported in various places over the last week, an alternate service was arranged by the diocese of Niagara and their so called “administrator” of St. Hilda’s parish in a nearby library. Well, a couple of St. Hilda’s parishioners went to the service, and I received the [...]

From here. A week after locking the doors of St. Chad’s Anglican Church to all parishioners, the Toronto diocese will hold services tomorrow morning at the church, which last month narrowly voted to split from mainstream Anglicanism (the writer means the Anglican Church of Canada, I think) in a dispute over same sex marriage blessings.

OK, OK, that’s my attempt at a sensational title. You’ll get the idea if you read the article below (sourced here). Anybody from that diocese who would like to comment would be most welcome. Of course, those who are not are free to wax lyrical too… EDMONTON – Allison Kydd is concerned delegates who will [...]

There’s an update from Fr. Andrew, the associate at St. Mary’s, in the comments. From here. Hopefully the information is accurate, I have no other verified source. VICTORIA – Members of an Anglican parish in Metchosin, determined to quit the church over gay marriages, can continue to use the premises of St. Mary of the [...]

I read this online in the Oakville Beaver today: “What I feel most disappointment about are the faithful parishioners of St. George’s and St. Hilda’s who are not going to be able to worship in an Anglican Church of Canada service this Sunday in a church were they should be,” said Bishop Michael Bird with [...]

So, since this is a slow news day, I thought I would post something I found here. He’s not talking about Anglicans specifically, but he might just as well have been! There is a trend emerging in the church today, and it is not good. Okay, that was putting it mildly. The trend I am [...]

A little admin notice for you all. Very soon, this blog is going to move to a new server. Of course, this will be a seamless process, and you will not notice a thing. Ahem. We hope. In all likelihood things may get a little weird for a while. I’ll do my level best not [...]

It seems as though the Diocese of Niagara has removed all links to the press releases regarding the parishes that have left for the oversight of the Southern Cone from its website. If you want to read them, you can find them here. Later: Seems they weren’t removed, only consolidated. The link is in the [...]

Sad when it comes to this. St Chad’s, if you remember, was the one church where the congregation ended up split fairly evenly. St. Chad’s Anglican Church sits empty after the Toronto diocese changed the locks and told all parishioners to go elsewhere, in response to the congregation voting recently to split from the Anglican [...]
