Session 3: Anglicanism 101: Christian Formation Continues


Did you know that there are 4 main branches of Christianity? Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, ...... and Anglican.

This coming Wednesday morning, we will look at the origins of our denomination, what formed us and makes us unique and faithful.

If you think Henry the 8th is the reason we exist, that we are just "Catholic-light", please come and find out a more complex story of who we are as Anglicans.

Wednesday, May 11 · 10:00 am - 12:00 pm in the conference room.

CORe Quotes

Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life:
Such a Way, as gives us breath:
Such a Truth, as ends all strife:
Such a Life, as killeth death.

Come, my Light, my Feast, my Strength:
Such a Light, as shows a feast:
Such a Feast, as mends in length:
Such a Strength, as makes his guest.

Come, my Joy, my Love, my Heart:
Such a Joy, as none can move:
Such a Love, as none can part:
Such a Heart, as joys in Love.

George Herbert

CORe Quotes

God's love sets me free to enter in community with other people
-even when the community is a very limited one
and is not the total communion that my heart desires.



Only when I live in communion with God
can I live in a community that is not perfect.



Only then can I love the other person
and create a space in which we might be
quite distant or very close,



But we can still allow something new to be born
-a child, friendship, joy, community,
a space where strangers and guests and be received.












Henri Nouwen
20th century priest and mystic
