Alas, no, just more branches broken off branches broken off the vine...
A group of,
Anglican leaders are preparing to step up their operations with a charity based in London that will be seen by opponents as a schismatic rival to the worldwide Anglican Communion.Well, yes.
The charity, the Global Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans, or GFCA, set up for the "advancement of the Orthodox Anglican Christian Faith", is to start employing staff to teach and preach a conservative gospel to an increasingly secular world....
The plans emerged after the primates' council of Gafcon, the Global Anglican Futures Conference, met in London this week behind closed doors.
Archbishop Peter Jensen, former Archbishop of Sydney, appointed general secretary of GFCA, told Christian Today: "We are poised for a considerable leap forward. We have a vision. We are on the way"...
Archbishop Jensen, who is 71, said: "In my own lifetime we have seen the death of Christian Britain."
A bishop has investigated the Muslim prayer service that took place in Church of England building in London and has pledged that no such service will take place again....I think such insolence may have been a fatal mistake.
"The Vicar has issued a statement expressing his sorrow at the offence this has caused and any infringement of Church of England guidelines. He has assured me of his intention to work within these guidelines in the future."...
[A] "jummah" had been held at St John's with the permission of Canon Goddard and organised by the Inclusive Mosque Initiative. The service was led by a woman imam and Canon Goddard read from Psalm 139: "Let us celebrate our shared traditions, by giving thanks to the God that we love, Allah." Images and iconography of the Virgin Mary, Jesus and the stations of the cross were covered over during the event, which was videoed and appeared online.
There seems to be a "Ain't Mama happy, ain't NOBODY happy" joke to be made here...
