"It would be difficult for Canterbury and most of the national Anglican churches to enter into full communion with either Roman or Eastern Orthodoxy without entirely disclaiming all strains of Calvinism, but it is conceivable that some of the continuing Anglican churches could do exactly that."

From what I have learned from the noble sionnsar, I agree. I must say though that I have been surprised that such a reunion has yet to take place, but perhaps it needs more time. In the meantime, we see a steady stream of Episcopalians into our parish. We will be chrismating an Episcopalian woman during the Nativity fast.

Uh oh. What have I done now?

It will definitely need more time. Though I have seen firsthand one Episcopal church that seems almost ready to move wholesale, it will take more conversation than I've been aware of between the Orthodox and a Continuing church for such a move to take place.
