So, yes it’s been quiet here for a while, not entirely due to your editors falling asleep either. I see the ever-irenic Mike Daley has been let out for good behaviour and is up and running again over here. As for us, I just picked up this Canadian Christanity article for your edification etc. LOOKING [...]

Who remembers SEM? That is to say, Shared Episcopal Ministry, that provision from the Anglican Church of Canada that will deal with the conflict within the church?

Many years ago, I had a friend whom I have now lost touch with. He was a nuclear physicist who had escaped from communist Czechoslovakia (actually the nuclear physicist).

Last Sunday, the promised new church for conservative Ottawa Anglicans held its first worship service. The turnout was small, but hopes are high.
