Anglican news

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Rowan Williams, is in our neck of the woods today and tomorrow. I've not yet had a chance to read the speech he delivered in Toronto, but I'm linking to it here for those interested: The Bible Today: Reading & Hearing.

In the meantime yet another parish has broken with the Episcopal Church. This time it's the Church of the Resurrection in West Chicago, very near the town where I grew up. The congregation intends to seek "new oversight within the Communion," i.e., to place themselves under a bishop elsewhere within the larger Anglican Communion, perhaps Africa or Asia.
