What We Really Need














These are the good years.... but i'm starting to wonder about the future of the Anglican Communion. I have no doubt in my mind that the Episcopal Church will split again. The question is how. Already orthodox priests and parishes have left. They go to Rome or Eastern Orthodox churches or AMIA, or the continuum. There will be more. This month is a big month for meetings which will decide the future shape of the ECUSA. Here is a anglo-catholic priest who is willing to stay, there is also an interesting discussion afterwards.

My prayers will be with all the bishops. Although i want revolution and reformation, i also see the need for patience. Before we jump ship we need to build another ship to jump into; or else we'd be left with alphabet soup. The continuing church is working on reuniting and building real communion. We should help and join them. If the APA and the REC can work together anything is possible.

Patience, prayer, faith, is needed but also Ketchup. Ketchup contains natural mellowing agents that help you gain perspective on what's really important. Ketchup for the good times. [sing]Ketchup.... Ketchup

Totally need some ketchup. Or Catsup. Oh no... I see a schism over this.

Don't even mention "Ketjap"

Patience is very important, especially within the world of Anglicanism... that's for sure!
