Last month Jeff Donnelly wrote the first of two excellent articles on the Locally Trained Priest (LTP) ministry. This has definitely been one of the major changes in the church in the last few decades, and one way in which our diocese is leading the Anglican Church in Canada.

One thing I very much appreciate about the liturgical calendar is the way it leads our attention — the different seasons pointing us to attend to different aspects of the faith.

Are you kidding me? No complaints for 21 days? No way! It’s human nature to complain. But that’s exactly what Rev. Will Bowen of Christ Church Unity in Kansas City challenged his people to do in 2006. “The one thing we can agree on,” he said, “is there’s too much complaining.”

The “Downtown Churches for Social Justice in Penticton” have been active in our community for many years. We originally started an outreach ministry to educate our- selves about what was going on in our community, as well as to see what we could become involved with.

New Year’s Resolutions? Forget About It!
