This morning’s inspiring and thought-provoking Easter sermon by The Rev David Curry, Rector of Christ Church, Windsor, includes this great line: With apologies to President Obama, and for that matter most politicians, the Resurrection is change you can believe in. Read the whole thing.
Dr Michael Nazir-Ali, one of the Church of England’s most outspoken leaders, has unexpectedly announced his retirement as Bishop of Rochester, effective 1 September. He will turn 60 in August and could have remained in office for another ten years. Instead, he now plans to minister to Christians in Muslim-majority nations who face harassment and [...]
Canon Andrew White, vicar of St. George’s, Baghdad, the only Anglican church in Iraq, says Iraqi Christians are still being killed and forced into exile. He does not condemn the invasion of Iraq and is glad Saddam was deposed, but the situation today is disastrous for non-Muslims. I look around our church and most of [...]
The web project I mentioned a few days ago has come to fruition. The Parish of Christ Church, Windsor, Nova Scotia, has gone online with a very spiffy website (if I say so myself). Actually, it’s a WordPress blog masquerading as a website, but whatever. Several sermons by our rector, The Rev. David Curry, and [...]
The Rev David Curry, Rector of Christ Church, Windsor, preached this sermon for the First Sunday in Lent. Unusually for Fr Curry, it was not based on either of this morning’s Scripture readings but on Hebrews 5:8, “Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered”. This is nonetheless a most fitting [...]
Anglican Archbishop of Uganda Henry Orombi (at right) preached and led prayers at the second annual West Ankole Diocese Youth and Students Convention last month. 1500 were expected to attend, but over 5000 showed up. Renowned for his passion for young people and a big heart for evangelism, the Archbishop of the Church of Uganda, [...]
The Rev David Curry, Rector of Christ Church, Windsor, gave this sermon for the Second Sunday After the Epiphany, based on the Gospel reading (St John 2:1-11), the story of the marriage feast at Cana where Jesus turned water into wine. Beginning from the miraculous sign of divine glory at Cana, Fr Curry delivered a [...]
Archbishop of York Dr John Sentamu believes that Britain’s social cohesion and sense of common purpose have disappeared in recent decades. The nation, he argues, has lost the “big vision” that was evident in welfare-state social programmes of the 1940s. That big vision was mainly the product of William Temple, Richard Tawney, and William Beveridge, [...]
An Anglican priest in the Diocese of Peshawar, North-West Frontier Province (NWFP), Pakistan, who was kidnapped last week, was found on Sunday evening dumped outside the gates of Saint John’s Cathedral Church. The Rev Tanzeel Zafar had been severely beaten, thrown at the church gate, and apparently left for dead. He was rushed to hospital [...]
The collect for today, the commemoration of the Right Rev John Horden (1828-1893), first Bishop of Moosonee, Missionary to the First Nations of Canada: O God, the Desire of all the nations, you chose your servant John Horden to open the treasury of your Word among the native peoples of Canada. Grant us, after his [...]
An unnamed Anglican priest in the Solomon Islands was reportedly attacked and injured by a local Muslim on 16 December. The suspect is still at large. Police say the attack was motivated by “religious differences”. Solomon Star reports that Malaita’s Provincial Police Commander David Diosi confirms police is searching for the suspect Jack Rade – [...]
Archbishop of York Dr John Sentamu’s Christmas message is printed this year in, of all places, The Sun. School Nativity plays can speak to all of us. Like the star that led the wise men to the stable, the re-enactment of the Nativity story guides us to an understanding of the true meaning of Christmas. [...]
A Church of England bishop has sharply criticised the United States and Great Britain over brutal persecution of Christians in Iraq. The Rt Rev Graham James says the two countries’ invasion of Iraq has contributed to the obliteration of one of the world’s oldest Christian communities. Despite having very strong Christian traditions, the US and [...]
The Rev David Curry, Rector of Christ Church, Windsor, gave this sermon this morning for the Fourth Sunday In Advent, based on the Gospel reading (St John 1:19-28). The theme of Advent is holy watching and holy waiting; that presents a challenge because it’s very hard to wait upon God. Advent is also a time [...]
This hymn was sing during Morning Prayer at Christ Church, Windsor, while a special collection was taken for the work of the Council of the North. We sang all six of John Newton’s original verses as well as the later additional verse from an unknown hand. Amazing grace! How sweet the sound That saved a [...]
