I'...Another thoughtful, thought provoking post. I'm sometimes challenged about being 'too catholic' but my heritage IS Catholic, having been born and raised RC. But I was called to be an Anglican, in a specific place and time, therefore, I'm an Anglican, who has learned that Catholic heritage isn't a hindrance and in some cases, is an advantage, because I'm able to move between high and low without any discomfort and my middle of the road parish does things in a liberal, broad church way that accommodates me alongside others, who have a distinctively Evangelical heritage. And we do those things that you speak of. Worship and praise together, share ministry together and we act out and witness as Christians with the five other churches of various denominations within our local community. On the ground, unity is much nearer than it is in the higher palaces of power in Lambeth, Westminster or wherever the higher echelons of our churches operate.<br /><br />Easter will be the time where we demonstrate that unity, by starting the Palm Sunday Procession at the Baptist Church, and all will come to worship with us. Our Good Friday activities including Stations of the cross will be started at one church and will process through the streets with someone carrying the cross, with others being called to help as in the Gospels Our vigil will be shared with leaders of each church speaking during Holy Thursday Eucharist.<br /><br />Lots to celebrate, but I suspect don't expect it to be welcomed wider than our own deanery.UKViewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18114944341930758335noreply@blogger.com
