Tim,
This is a good observation. We have a large, sunny patch on the side of our Parish House that is largely unused, unseen, and not particularly attractive. A community vegetable garden, with local food pantries benefitting from the produce, mi...
Hey Victoria, great stuff. I like what you're doing with the psalms - our suburban parish has been experimenting w/some things liturgically as well, and we're preparing to introduce some elements from Benedictine models of community as a starting ...
I am brand new to this web site and was very glad to find this particular thread because so much of what I have seen referenced in emrgent examples are urban churches. I am the rector of a pastoral sized suburban church (which looks and feels more...
Our suburban parish hit a financial crisis point, so we 1) began looking into selling some of our land to a non-profit developer to build low-income housing and 2) started renting out our space to other churches during off times, a nursery school,...
Our church got all age groups working together by finding outreach projects that lots of people can contribute to without making a huge time comittment. We have one energetic member who went out and found projects for us. Maybe some of your older ...

Stephen Secaur said… - Raewynne, I don't know much of anything about Australia. I am interested in a full exchange where a priest and I would swap homes and cures for like six weeks. We'd want some time to explore and visit but could do that mostly on days off. I'd prefer city or small town. We are in a small town here. Maybe you could suggest a couple of dioceses. Probably couldn't do this until 2009 at least. Thanks, Steve

I still tell people bewildered by my sense of deep satisfaction, "I, even I, played cricket!" On a humid field @ CREDO! Very good to hear from you, "doc"!

- Hi Raewynne. Good to be on Anglimergent with you. I'm still looking for a clear, definitive of just what the emergent church movement is, but I'm sure it will come to me. BTW, my wife and I are interested in doing a pulpit exchange for like 3 months in Australia. Do you have any knowledge of a blog or bulletin board for clergy willing to switch pulpits, home and cars with a US priest? Blessings, Steve

Stefani Schatz said… - Hi Raewynne,
Welcome to Anglimergent -- you're only 20 hours "old" by the site's calculation! well done!
your photo looks great! Snazzy car, the kyak and great clergy "lady" clothes!!
Anyway, all this to say "your" Aussie bishop is coming to our Lambeth event - thanks so much for pointing her our way.
And as I head back to TEC I hope we'll see each other in person one day even tho I'll be across the country.
pax,
