Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams.

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (typically 3-7 pings/day).
This list is pinged by sionnsar and newheart.

A good move, perhaps he'll keep on the same trajectory. Both we in the East and the Latins find that Anglicanism often functions as a good catechumenate for such folk.

This story reminds me of a young Presbyterian minister I ran into some years ago. While an assistant at a large church, he had preached on the sacrament and how folks should approach it. He suggested that things were headed toward squirting grape jelly on a cracker and dispensing it from a vending machine. Needless to say, that was not well received by the congregation, and he was soon in the job where I met him.

I don't think even he envisioned the day where chocolate chip cookies would be used.

While I find the use of Chips Ahoy for communion evidence of ignorance on the part of the stewards, I don't believe that those few are the only ones who display ignorance in certain areas of their faith. Nor do I think their mistake is as bad as some of the other ignorances in other faiths. And some have blatant rebellions.

The pastor should have set the Chips Ahoy Mates straight and in short order.

But what do you do when my denomination plays games with church law to overturn the conviction of a practicing minister who is a self-avowed, practicing lesbian?

What do you do when others ordain bishops who committed abomination with another man, and in the process left their wife for a pseudo-union with that same man?

What do you do when denominations elevate so-called scholars who deny the resurrection?

Chips Ahoy is clearly a mistake....but perhaps it's a mistake of the head and not of the heart.

Christ Church isn't too far from one of those BiG Bible Churches. My Trad church had a number of families leave for Christ Church because they were more touchy-feely, program oriented.

The growing trend in conservative Episcopal churches is contemporary service with Praise, Baby, Praise. The odd thing is that the liberal churches are sticking with the Traditional Mass. (I'm speaking of the Dallas Diocese)

At the point of getting s "Chip Ahoy," instead of asking for affirmation of "Body of Christ," the priest would HAVE to say: "Got milk?"
