Dear Family and Friends of Holy Trinity,
This Wednesday evening (tonight, Apr 19) I will present an
update on what is going on in the Anglican Church, both worldwide and
locally. Some have expressed an interest in this, particularly with
the recent affiliation of the of The Diocese of SC with our particular Anglican
province (the ACNA).
Four topics will be covered night:
·
Where we are in world-wide Anglicanism
·
The GAFCON Movement.
·
The Anglican diaspora in North America, and the
coalescing of dispersed Anglicans under the Anglican Church in North America
(ACNA).
·
The Diocese of the Carolinas’ (our
diocese’s) recent merger with the churches in the Carolinas that had been under
the Anglican Province of Rwanda.
·
And finally, a discussion on The Diocese of
South Carolina (not to be confused with our diocese, The Diocese of the
Carolinas) and DOSC’s recent affiliation with the ACNA.
I will be using a PowerPoint presentation and other handouts.
For those who will not be unable to make it Wednesday evening, I will be glad
to email this material to you if you are interested; just let me know,
By the way, the overarching contemporary issue that is
driving all of this centers around questions of the timeless authority of
Scripture and the uniqueness of Jesus. Other Protestant denominations in
the developed countries of the West struggle with the same heresy; therefore,
much of what I will share applies to many of our sister denominations as well.
I hope to see you tonight.
Father
Rob
