So what exactly is an Anglican? Fr. Chris Klukas, a candidate for bishop in the ACNA: “Well, basically if you take a Baptist, a Presbyterian, and a Roman Catholic and you stick them into a blender and turn it on and mix it all up, that's kind of what we are as Anglicans.” #ADGL
ACNA News: The Anglican Diocese of the Great Lakes has announced candidates for its next bishop. The Rt. Rev. Allen Kannapell and the Very Rev. Christopher Klukas will be up for election on Oct 17. All candidates in ADGL are required to affirm the ordination of female priests.

People are really mad about this, but if you are in favor of open communion (all baptized persons) then you already share one bread and one body with us in the Episcopal Church.
The ACNA Bishop of SC, Chip Edgar, has some explainin’ to do.

Derek Jones didn’t undertake these abuses alone. He was enabled by multiple collaborators in the CoB including every successive Archbishop and Okoh of Nigeria. This ruling implicates all of them.
ACNA news: the Court for the Trial of a Bishop finds Bp Derek Jones guilty of refusing to follow a Godly Admonition, violating the canons, exhibiting conduct giving cause for scandal including abuse of ecclesiastical power, and promoting and causing schism.

St. Timothy's Chapel - Charleston, SC The Porter-Gaud School On August 18, the Rt. Rev. Bishop Chip Edgar (ACNA) and the Rt. Rev. Bishop Ruth Woodliff-Stanley (TEC) concelebrated the consecration of this new space in the power of Almighty God. xitter.cf/mrdavidrowe/status/208…
Tomorrow, we dedicate our new school chapel. It's been quite a journey: the first plans were drawn up in 1965. One unusual thing is that the dedication will be led by an ACNA bishop and a TEC bishop, working together. Heavens! There can't be many ‘bridge’ institutions like ours.

Congratulations to the ACNA Trial Court for doing the right thing in the Jones case, although it seemed pretty obvious and cut and dry. Doesn't make up for botching Ruch, but it's something.

“The findings in this case are the bare bones of the environment this Court found within the SJAFC that promoted isolation, authoritarian submission, doubt, hopelessness, and deceit. The Respondent sought to force submission and wield power, rejecting Godly authority and inquiry in a manner that is as unlike Christ as one can imagine.”

Yup Anglicanism should be the form of Christianity w the lowest bar to entry & the chillest vibe. IMO. Like you can be angsty if you’re an Anglican but you don’t have to be. You can have pronounced theological opinions but you can also not be sure of much more than the creeds.
There’s stuff in the Matthew Barrett essay I would raise an eyebrow at but I’ll say as a (technically) cradle Anglican that there’s this tendency among Anglicans to act like a 90s indie record store employee who hates everyone who likes music the second anyone joins our church

“A Church that tells the truth becomes a Church capable of repentance. A Church capable of repentance becomes a Church capable of renewal. And a renewed Church becomes a more credible witness to the God of all Truth.” Talley Cross (Mid-Atlantic), link below. #ACNA

The Ven. Tara Jernigan, Archdeacon for the Southwest (ACNA): “Modern concerns and divisions often prevent us from sharing our priesthood so visibly with one another, but this should grieve us, not be used as a bludgeon to further divide us.”

ACNA News: The College has approved the election of an additional bishop for C4SO. C4SO practices dual integrities on sexuality, allowing churches to welcome LGBT+ Christians to Communion. This approval appears to repudiate critics who recently called for C4SO's “Discipline”.
Always a joy to publish with North American Anglican. May the ACNA reverse course.

“The Church can and must be a place where declarations of orthodox belief are not a substitute for Christ-like character and conduct. The Church can and must be a place where those called to the highest levels of leadership are willing to lay down their lives for those they serve, in humility—not to remain in power at their expense.” The Rev. Amanda Holm Rosengren, link below.
