- What do you see as some of the biggest opportunities for Anglicans today?
- If we want to put God's face on help for a hurting world, there is no end of opportunity almost anywhere we care to look. I guess the biggest opportunity, broadly expressed, would be to humbly shift our resources and talents into programs that minister to people in need, physically, educationally, spiritually, emotionally. environmentally. A quiet Godly presence in our communities and in the world. A constant, strong force for inclusion and equity. Perhaps a giving up of emphasis on our social presence in our communities--doing what's right rather than what's socially acceptable when appropriate.
- What do you want Anglimergent to be? and what other Anglimergent resources, gatherings, activities or events would you find helpful for your ministry?
- I'm just learning about it. And wouldn't say I have a ministry per se. I guess I want it to be that church that I haven't yet found.
