Episcopal Church USA To Get African At General Convention

No not African Anglican like traditional Christian teaching or listening to the African Anglican Church that is telling their U.S. counterparts they are going off the deep end.

No but it is African word time as MCJ points out in his sad but funny entry HEY, KIDS!! WHAT TIME IS IT?!!

I don't think this is very African:
Creative worship services still are being shaped and may include African and Korean drums, Chinese dragons and Native-American liturgical dancers. Emergent liturgy or worship will receive special emphasis, said Bruno, who recently created a diocesan Center for Creative Worship.

and

Camp counselors, clergy, Christian educators, storytellers, liturgical dancers, actors, artists and the Los Angeles diocese’s cultural diversity center, the Kaleidoscope Institute, are teaming up to offer a high-tech version of “where in the world is the Episcopal Church (TEC) and what in the world are they doing” for children, Bek said. “We want them to be able to go home and tell everyone what is happening in TEC right now … and how we’re preparing for their future in TEC,” added Bek, director of youth and children’s ministries and school chaplain at St. Stephen’s, Santa Clarita.

and

Through the collaborative efforts of Episcopal Church Center staff, the Province VIII Western Episcopal Educators and a diocesan team, the children of deputies, bishops, staff, volunteers, Triennial Meeting delegates and visitors attending convention will create their own worship, interview conventioneers and create videos and upload them onto You Tube

Lord Help us. This sounds like a convention of those now 70 year old Catholics that get together and have scary Mr Potato heads at Mass. ( I am not sure it was valid so I am being real generous calling it a "Mass".)

Helpful advice from a Roman to the TEC. See the wacko Catholics above and their ages. That shows how successful all that was!!! It didn't work in the 70's so I suspect it aint going to work now.
