Incense and allergies... any brilliant suggestions?

So here is a very practical one to throw into the mix. Since our community of saint benedict's table first began gathering for worship back in 2003, we have used incense. Just a ceramic pot on the corner of the altar, into which grains of incense are place at the gathering and during the sanctus. A lot of our people are coming from outside of the liturgical church, and one of the things that really draws them is our rich use of sign and symbol. However, just today someone came forward with a…See More

Anyone know of any interesting things happening in New York City

Hi everyone,I'm getting ready to head to New York for the month of January, on a sabbatical study leave. I'm hoping to find some interesting liturgical explorations while I'm there... though when I was last in New York in 2007 I was disheartened to find that there was very little going on. Recommendations? See More

"Not a typical or uncontroversial fundamentalist"

Just published a book on my great-grandfather, who was described in an academic journal as being "Not a typical or uncontroversial fundamentalist;" it ended up becoming the title of this little book.He was a really interesting character: a fundamentalist (dispensationalist, no less) lay preacher, he was a major grain baron, multi-millionaire, and all around complex guy. He believed that the typical fundamentalist hang-ups over drinking and smoking were completely wrong-headed, and actually…See More

What you do for fun and re-creation?
Listen to jazz, read, run, drink coffee, and enjoy life
What do you see as some of the biggest challenges facing Anglicans today?
The fact that our divisions are actually keeping us from speaking with each other across dividing lines, and so are keeping us from actually being the Body of Christ.
What do you see as some of the biggest opportunities for Anglicans today?
Listen, learn, pray. We're on the cusp of what could be the most significant upheaval in the church since the Reformation, and we're at risk of missing it all.
What do you want Anglimergent to be? and what other Anglimergent resources, gatherings, activities or events would you find helpful for your ministry?
Good to have a place to share the stuff we've been developing, and to have a look at what is happening elsewhere. Is that what "they" call "networking?" Bloody awful cliche, but actually a valuable thing to do...

Anyone making sense of the rite of Confirmation these days?

Hi all,

Listen, I'm just wanting to check around and see what people are doing with Confirmation these days... that proverbial rite in search of a theology. In my own context - www.stbenedictstable.ca - we practice open table, but do put real emphasis on baptism. I could rehearse some of what informs that; I've done so in a little book we've published on this topic. I'm going to assume that many of you have also come to a place of seeing participation in communion as being, at least for… Continue

Two years ago I began a transition from rector to full-time work with All Saints Company (that founded St. Gregory's). Rick and I are both with All Saints now. Our work as it's shaping up is featured at www.allsaiantscompany.org. Biggest upcoming national/international piece will be our sixth 'Music that Makes Community' conference/workshop at Trinity, Copley Square, Boston.

Paul Fromberg is the rector at St. Gregory's and Sara Miles (author of Take this Bread) is director of ministry. I use the past tense only to mark that I have other responsibilities now. i don't know what Paul and the church will be doing about confirmation, but go gladly say that St. Gregory's is thriving under Paul's leadership. The Anglimergent gathering will be there starting this weekend.
