I know that, since Good Pope John XXIII, things have not gone well for Anglicans at the Vatican, but I really do think that Pope Francis will be much more open to us as fellow-travellers with Christ in outreach to the poor and marginalised of the world. He is unwell at the moment. I prayed for him at this morning's M ass, when we remembered the great Ireneus.Father Ron Smithhttp://kiwianglo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915617830446943975.post-46382028518577906362014-06-28T08:00:14.294+12:002014-06-28T08:00:14.294+12:00It was a bad day yesterday please apologise to the...It was a bad day yesterday please apologise to the Archbishop Webly I mistook him for our Archbishop Welby..... : ) JeanJeannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915617830446943975.post-8850781982263375732014-06-28T07:26:36.291+12:002014-06-28T07:26:36.291+12:00It all sounds just fine.

Evangelical means believing in the authority of the bible, and that people are saved through belief in Jesus alongside the importance of preaching this message.<br /><br />Amongst the young people I know and a title I almost qualify for achieving in an Anglican context, denominational differences at the grass roots level are considered to be less and less important compared to the commonality of belief in the Gospel.<br /><br />Our little christian community at my previous workplace included one catholic, two pentecostals, and three Anglicans, aka five followers of The Way.<br /><br />"Where there is unity God commands a blessing"Jeannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915617830446943975.post-8505920439210732072014-06-27T12:49:23.582+12:002014-06-27T12:49:23.582+12:00I hjave, for some time now, included prayers for F...I hjave, for some time now, included prayers for Francis, Bishop of Rome at the Daily Mass - as well, of course,as praying for our own Anglican Communion prelates.<br /><br />As an ex-member of the Anglican Franciscans, I well remember our togetherness which recognised one another's fellowship 'en Christo' with other religious orders.<br /><br />As an Anglican priest, I feel a deep synchronicity with Pope Francis, as I'm sure do our very own Bishop David Moxon at the Anglican Centre in Rome, joint-chair of ARCIC; and the ABC, who, despite his Evangelical provenance is also a spiritual directee of a Roman Catholic director.<br /><br />God only has one family in Christ.Father Ron Smithhttp://kiwianglo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915617830446943975.post-74830082645822027662014-06-27T11:01:03.006+12:002014-06-27T11:01:03.006+12:00It is the Spirit of catholicity, Bosco!
