Now I am thoroughly confused. One of the prime links on that page is to "Lancelot Andrewes Press." I know Jeff, the "Meam Commemorationem", is studying Bishop Lancelot Andrewes (for his doctorate?), and had tied him to the earlier Anglican church -- not the Orthodox. Is he responsible for that "spark of Orthodoxy" some say they see in Anglicanism? There is material here I do not know.
Hmmm... reading... "The English Church commemorates Andrewes on the 25th September."
"This year, 2005, on the 3rd November, will be the 400th anniversary of Lancelot Andrewes' consecration as a bishop in the Church of God. It would be wonderful if the English Church and its Communion could celebrate this."
(P.S. I am about to go offliine in advance of a busy week away; I don't know when I will be able to return to this thread.)

Lancelot Andrewes always looked East towards Orthodoxy. One of the Lossky's has written the definitive biography and analysis of Andrewes' life and theology. Andrewes is without a doubt the most Eastern leaning of all Anglican divines - I think that is fair to say. So the Lancelot Andrewes Press tries to publish things that are of use to Western Rite Orthodox and others interested in the Orthodox heart within Anglicanism.
There has been a study of Lancelet Andrewes orders that would lead one to a positive judgment as to their apostolic validity both from an Eastern Orthodox and a Roman Catholic point of view.
I love his Preces Privitae, and have used them for some time. They help temper my profoundly wretched temper and turn me to the Holy Trinity and the most glorious all holy and most pure Blessed Virgin Mary.

The festival on 10/2 will run beginning after liturgy, about noon, until 5 or 6 pm. So come on over and look us up. :-)
If you need directions, look
here.
Everyone working will know me, for the most part, though the parish has grown tremendously in the last few years. I don't know yet if/where I will work. The sign up sheets were supposed to be up last Sunday but were not. I know my oldest daughter Tania is serving meals in the hall. I will send you a freepmail with more about this, now that I think about it.
The piroshki and pastries are usually very well-priced, and quite yummy.

"Why should an Episcopalian become 'Orthodox'..."....I don't have the slightest idea nor am I interested. Although I certainly can understand why someone might want to leave the Apostate Episcopal Church.

Thank you for the explanations. I've bookmarked this for some research (if I get a round tuit) upon my brief return home.
