I have a lot of records from the first 10 years of the mailing lists. 
Here's something from May 1994. Since the Magdalen list runs from my 
computers, I can get away with sending a large message like this.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I've been a member of this list for well over a year now, although
     I've only been actively contributing since September '93.

     I was raised post Vatican II Roman Catholic in central Illinois and
     after many frustrating years (coinciding with my adolescence) in a
     charismatic-oriented RC parish, I finally discovered my home in the
     Episcopal Church. This process of discovery was coupled with my own
     coming out as a gay man, which I finally did a year or so after
     becoming Anglican.

     After receiving a BA from Illinois State and a year on fellowship in
     Germany, I've been in graduate school at The Ohio State University
     since Fall '91. I earned my M.A. in German last Spring (1993) and am
     now working on my PhD in the same field. (I hope to take my exams by
     next Christmas.)

     I have been living in a committed relationship with my partner Keith
     for almost six years. We celebrated our relationship with vows and a
     High Mass after I returned from Germany.

     I have been involved in several different parishes in the 9 years
     that I have been a member of the Episcopal Church. Most of the
     changes were brought on by moves to new academic institutions. Our
     first parish experience in Columbus was disastrous and resulted in
     our finally having to leave that church a year ago this month. We
     have become nominal members of another parish in town, but right now
     I'm too spiritually vulnerable to get involved in a parish.

     The past year outside of parish life has not been all negative,
     however. In fact, I have found it to be one of the most spiritually
     rewarding and mature decisions I have ever made. I have a deeper
     sense of my calling. Eventually I (or we) will head back to active
     parish life, although I doubt that it will be here in Columbus. 
Right
     now, however, ANGLICAN provides a quasi-parish for me (and, I
     suspect, for many others) in my time of transition.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     I was brought up as the youngest child of Lutheran missionaries in
     China. Came back to US at age 12 in time for WWII.  Started at a
     Lutheran College where I discovered that questions re the faith were
     not welcome. Because of a sister and brother-in-law there and my
     interest in English history, spent a year at Trinity College 
Toronto.
     There through the influence of RSK Seeley, Provost, who taught me
     that no questions were unwelcome, and through my discovery of
     Evensong, I began my journey to Anglicanism.  I married a Methodist
     and we both joined the Episcopal Church in time to have our oldest
     daughter baptized.

     I ended up at seminary - eventually Seabury Western. Graduated in
     1957 and spent eight years in two cures in Minnesota.  Then came 
here
     to St. Louis where for 16 1/2 years I was first Associate and then
     Rector of St. Peter's, Ladue.  These were the 60s & 70s and I lived
     through civil rights, Viet Nam, New PB, and women's ordination.  In
     1981 I finally admitted I was totally out of gas and I resigned the
     parish.  God was good to me and I ended up here at Washington
     University in a second career developing a program of user support
     for desktop computing.

     My wife and I now go to Emmanuel Webster Groves where I am listed as
     an Assisting Priest - which gets me a vote in Convention.  I am a
     very happy man in my own career and home and church.  Three grown,
     healthy, successful children, three gorgeous grandchildren (only
     regret - I want a granddaughter!) My oldest child Gretchen Pickeral,
     mother of sons 15 & 11, will be ordained priest April 27, 1994 in
     Christ Church Cathedral, St. Louis. (Halleluia!)

     I have decided to retire August 1.  So if I can get my e-mail sorted
     out I will start trying to be as much of a nuisance on this list as
     Patrick is, or maybe I'll work on writing long pedantic low-church
     notes to balance /john. :-)

Selena Billington             (selena at csn.org)
                               USA: Colorado (Golden)
                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     My name's Selena Billington.  I grew up un-churched, my parents both
     having fled from the organized religions of their respective youths.
     I started checking out churches about 10 years ago, some months 
after
     I got divorced, thinking at the time that I was looking for both a
     sense of community and a safe singles club.  The third Sunday of 
this
     venture I happened to go to an Episcopal church where the sermon was
     so good I decided to come back another week.  Ditto the second week
     -- and the third, etc.  For quite a while I was then stuck with 
going
     to two churches every Sunday -- the early service at St. Ambrose
     (Boulder, CO) for the sake of the learning and a later service at
     some other church as part of my supposed search.  After a while I
     figured out that I'd been searching indeed, but *NOT* for just an
     improvement in my social life, and so settled down to just St.
     Ambrose.

     It took me a long time to become trustful of the liturgy.  It took 
me
     a VERY long time to get baptized, even after I knew that would be
     truly right, and a good and joyful thing for me to do, because I
     didn't completely understand the words in the baptismal vow; my 
first
     big leap of faith was to take that vow WITHOUT really understanding
     all of it.  It also took a long time for me to come to terms with my
     need to go to seminary some day, but I worked it out with God a few
     years ago: now I'm putting money aside in savings bonds every pay
     period so I can pay for the tuition when I retire from my current
     work, and in return I don't have to feel uncomfortable about not
     quitting work, selling my house, and going right now.

     I celebrated the fifth anniversary of my baptism last summer!

     About a year or so ago I transferred to St. Andrew's, an inner-city
     mission church in Denver.  It's a wonderful place!  Small
     congregation, strong Anglo-Catholic tradition (incense every 
Sunday),
     beautiful building, eclectic and loving congregation, good sermons,
     and a signi- ficant outreach program.  I'm becoming involved as
     acolyte as well as lector.

     On the secular side, I'm a geophysicist at the U.S. Bureau of Mines.
     I study rock bursts and other seismicity and microseismicity in
     mines. Part-time, I'm an assistant technical editor for _Handwoven_
     magazine, helping to make sure all the project instructions they
     publish are perfect.  I have a B.S. in chemistry and Ph.D. in
     seismology, am 44 years old and comfortably single.

     I really like ANGLICAN.  I'm continually amazed at how many
     discussions get started here about things that are directly 
pertinent
     to me at the moment. I also am very impressed at how articulate,
     thoughtful and generally caring this group of people is.  Even the
     very heated arguments that take place here (and they ARE heated,
     because our beliefs matter a lot to us) are (or at least become)
     situations where the caring overshadows the disagreements.

                               USA: Massachusetts (Boston)
                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I'm working on a D.Min at Episcopal Divinity School. Otherwise, I'm 
a
     priest canonically resident in New York, tax-paying resident of
     northwestern New Jersey where I do emergency mental health work and
     church supply, presently residing in Cambridge, MA.

     I want to find a way to live in harmony with the people, the
     creatures, the world into which I have been born.  All of it -- seen
     and unseen.  I want to live both confidently and respectfully, with
     neither fear nor arrogance. I'd like to take what I need to live,
     without taking it from someone else, in my own generation or after.

     My parents didn't teach me how to do this; they don't know how. My
     society (mainstream U.S., in which I have lived as a middle-class,
     white, well-schooled, physically able, usually closeted lesbian)
     certainly didn't teach me; it is based on domination, not harmony.

     I got the idea, from growing up in a small Episcopal church, that
     religion's version of reality -- aka Truth -- made the primary claim
     on a believer's life choices. That is, if there were a conflict
     between what the society expected and what the gospel required the
     gospel won. That teaching was accomplished primarily through my
     regular participation in the weekly liturgy and Sunday School, as a
     welcomed part of the church community.

     I left the church in late adolescence (mine) because I noticed that
     people not only didn't live what they preached, but didn't seem to
     believe it, either. I spent some time with the Quakers, whose
     approach to belief and life seemed more coherent and honest. I was,
     and probably still am, bitter about the Episcopal Church's
     tongue-in-cheek approach to the formation of its members' spiritual
     and moral lives.

     In my early thirties -- after fifteen years or so of going to school
     and exploring various kinds of employment, e.g., advertising
     copywriting, teaching, welfare casework, bar waitressing, 
janitoring,
     and working in a pottery -- I experienced a religious conversion and
     vocational call to ordained ministry. This was in 1972. That is, I
     came to believe that the creative essence of life can be experienced
     by human beings as divine being, and that the nature of this being 
is
     love which might well express itself in the life, death, 
resurrection
     and spiritual presence of someone like Jesus. I understand the task
     of the church to be -- in continual response to the spirit -- the
     incarnation of divine harmony in whatever circumstances it finds
     itself.

     But, how? I have found much more explicit, practical guidance from
     Buddhist and 12-step teaching than from the church, which says much
     more about what to do than how to do it. It could be said that the
     church's teaching takes place -- effectively, though obliquely -- in
     the liturgical life of the community. Rather, the liturgical life of
     the community *is* the church's teaching.

     One major problem, revealed by feminist and liberation analysis, is
     that people who participate in the authorized liturgical life of the
     Episcopal Church do hear the gospel, but in a context of patriarchal
     domination. Sort of like serving "chicken soup" made out of a couple
     pieces of chicken in a bowl of anti-freeze; it might look like soup,
     but it's not good for you.  I would like to believe that it is still
     possible for the ordinary liturgical life of Episcopalians to be
     where people can experience the divine spirit among them as source 
of
     celebration and wellspring of power for everyday lives of justice 
and
     harmony. My D.Min. program at EDS is part of a renewed attempt to
     find ways to make this happen.

     My primary community of accountability is, I'm somewhat surprised to
     realise, the Episcopal Church, first in the form of the living 
people
     who attempt to live and worship and study and talk together under 
its
     roof, but also in relation to the people who are part of its 
history.
     I once asked the bishop of the diocese in which I had been baptised
     and confirmed if he would excommunicate me, because I wanted to get
     clear of the church, not just sidle away. In something of the same
     spirit I feel that as long as I am in orders this church is where I
     am obligated to work out whatever salvation I can. This is where I
     repeatedly recognise the possibility of a purposeful life, a place
     for my contribution to a harmonious world life. This is the right
     place for me, however uncomfortable. It's like an artist knowing her
     medium to be, say, stone carving, even though enamel miniatures 
would
     be more convenient and seemingly suitable to her talents.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I am married (wife and two sons -- 14 and 12), live in Bellingham, 
WA
     (about 90 miles north of Seattle), and work in Surrey (Vancouver),
     British Columbia.

     Both Barbara (my wife) and I were received into the Episcopal Church
     in 1988 after both having been born and raised in the Roman
     tradition. Initially, we worshipped at St. Francis (Colorado 
Springs)
     and St. Michael's (Colorado Springs) before joining St. Paul's in
     Bellingham this last September (we moved because of a job change for
     me). In my particular case, I was away from any organized church 
from
     about 1967 (at the age of 13) to 1988 because of family 
circumstances
     as well as my own doubts about "organized religion".

     At the urging of my wife and a friend (as well as an "inner" 
urging),
     I went to St. Francis, became "hooked" and was involved as the
     Director of Religious Education, taught classes from preschool to
     adult including catechumens, functioned as a lay reader, youth
     organizer, sang tenor in the choir, etc.

     Currently, because my job requires quite a bit of travel, I'm only a
     "pew rat" at St. Paul's and am happy in that role for the forseeable
     future. I suspect ya'll will see my postings in large spurts while
     I'm not traveling, so apologies in advance, if I don't happen to
     answer right away.

     I live in Silver Spring, Maryland, USA.  I'm a cradle Episcopalian,
     confirmed and married at Church of the Redeemer, Sarasota (home 
until
     recently to the rather controversial Jack Iker, who officiated at my
     wedding--my one claim to fame.) Florida.  I attend Church of Our
     Saviour-Hillandale, here in Silver Spring.  I was raised
     Anglo-Catholic, and that liturgical style is still "home" to me, but
     my ecclesiastical politics fall much farther to the left than those
     of Iker and the Synod folks.

     I have pursued ordination in the past, opted out to have babies, and
     I am considering getting back in the process, which here in the
     Diocese of Washington is fairly brutal.  They will be accepting only
     5 postulants a year from now on.

     I am married (14 years!) with two children, ages 7 and 5.  When I
     have a free day, I like to spend it at All Saints Convent,
     Catonsville, MD, where one of the few Episcopal orders of nuns is
     based.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I am Archdeacon of the Diocese of Bethlehem - 14 counties of NE PA. 
I
     found this meeting through the good offices of my brother in Christ
     and neighbor across the Delaware, Louie Crew. I grew up sailing, so 
I
     will use the sailing metaphors of "catching the drift and testing 
the
     breezes" for the listening in I have been doing for the last couple
     of weeks.

     I have been ordained for twenty-something years and have served
     parishes in the dioceses of Washington, Rochester, and Bethlehem
     before becoming Archdeacon in 1984. I am much newer to electronic
     communication and community. I do see the potential and the power 
for
     this new-to-me medium. I have been impressed with the level of
     compassion - as well as passion - communicated in this meeting, and 
I
     look forward to finding a place in this virtual community of
     Christians.

     My spouse is a Lutheran who has an extraordinary pastoral ministry
     working with persons with HIV/AIDS and their families. We share the
     parenthood of three children of various racial mixtures. We have all
     been "tested in the fire" of human experience and have come to 
depend
     upon God and God's miracles - especally the great miracle we
     celebrate in this Christmastide.

                               Biography last updated Aug 23 1993

     Baptized as an infant at Old Christ Church in Shrewsbury, New 
Jersey.
     Raised, catechized, and confirmed at St. Patrick's in Falls Church,
     Virginia, where I was for many years a member of the junior choir.
     Spent 7/8/9th grade at St. Stephen's School in Alexandria, Virginia.

     As an Army brat, for many years my "parishes" were military 
Episcopal
     communities; served or sang in the choir in U.S. Army Episcopal
     chapels in Germany and Alabama.

     During seven years at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, was a parishioner and
     server at The Church of Our Saviour, where I became an
     ultra-conservative Anglo-Catholic, and, as a member of the formerly
     all-Roman-Catholic fraternity Phi Kappa Theta, began to hope for
     reconciliation between Rome, Canterbury, and Constantinople, in
     accordance with the principles of the Chicago-Lambeth Quadrilateral
     (see BCP pp 876-878).

     Married Pam at The Church of the Nativity in Huntsville, Alabama.

     Currently a parishioner at The Church of the Advent in Boston.
     Member of the National Organization of Episcopalians for Life and of
     the Episcopal Synod of America (but will not remain a member of ESA
     should it become schismatic).

     Extremely concerned about what seems to be a rapidly disintegrating
     Church which is abandoning the Quadrilateral; will remain an
     Episcopalian as long as it is possible to practice the Faith of the
     Fathers within this Church, but the Roman option seems to be closer
     and closer with every strange new practice sprung upon us by the
     liberal establishment.  However, the liberals seem to be trying to
     bring the Roman Catholic Church into the same strange new religion 
as
     well.

     Will proclaim forever the central doctrine of Christianity: "Jesus 
is
     Almighty God", the central fact that "Christ our Lord is Risen in 
the
     Flesh", and await His coming again in Glory.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I am a parishioner at Holy Trinity in Clemson, SC. I work at Clemson
     University as a Computer Systems Manager.  I have been a quiet 
reader
     of ANGLICAN for quite some time now, and thought I should introduce
     myself.

     I am 30 years old and married Scarlett in June of this year.  My
     first 18 years were spent in the Christian Church (Disciples of
     Christ) in St. Stephen, SC, where I was reared.  I was third
     generation Disciples of Christ, and my family was very devoted to 
the
     church.  Being a small church, our Christian education programs were
     not very strong.  My cousin is (and was when I was growing up) the
     organist and choir master at St. Stephen Episcopal Church, and I
     would attend their Christmas Eve service, giving me an introduction
     to the church I have come to love so much.

     When I got to college and allowed myself to come out from under the
     books to find a church, I realized that with no Disciples of Christ
     Church near, I had to make a choice.  I attended an Easter Sunday
     service at Holy Trinity, and I knew I was home.  I was confirmed in
     1987, and have been active in the parish as a Eucharistic Minister,
     Lay Reader, usher, and as member of the vestry.

     I consider Holy Trinity to be broad.  Some of us kneel to pray, some
     of us stand; some bow towards the altar, others genuflect.  I have
     experienced what I consider high church at St. Mary's in Asheville,
     NC and St. Paul's, K Street in Washington, DC, and I find that I 
have
     a great affection for it. Holy Trinity has three main Sunday
     services, 8am (Rite I), 9am (Rite II), and 11:15am (Rite I or
     Matins), along with Rite I at 6pm, and at 5:15pm on Wednesdays.

     Even though I have been active in the Episcopal Church for over 6
     years, I still consider myself a newcomer, not because I don't feel
     welcome, but because I feel I have a great deal to learn about
     Christianity and Anglicanism.  In both areas, I have received a 
great
     deal of help from all of you by reading ANGLICAN.

     I would never have chosen to face the difficulties that life has
     thrust upon me as a sexual outsider; but I choose to respect my
     survival, so intimately does our character integrate with the
     obstacles which shape us.  Folks have us sexual reformers all wrong:
     we are less about the business of sensuality than is the 
neighborhood
     gossip; ours is the task of all others fed on locusts and wild 
honey:
     to make way for the truth.

     I am a rather recent convert to Episcopalianism from Methodism
     (although my upbringing was staunchly pentecostal). I'm now a
     30-year-old husband, father, and Asst. Prof. of Religion. I am doing
     my graduate work in Hebrew Bible at Vanderbilt University, chiefly
     under the direction of Walter Harrelson.

     My primary area of academic interest is in the book of Psalms.  The
     dissertation, which I'll defend in May 1994, is entitled "The Songs
     of Ascents (Psalms 120-134):  Their Place in Israelite History and
     Religion." Ancillary interests include biblical theology, Israelite
     history, comparative ancient Near Eastern literature, comparative
     religions, and social history.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     Born in Austin TX in 1966, I grew up in Poughkeepsie NY and Corpus
     Christi TX. I moved to Houston to go to college (Rice University, BA
     History '87), and I'm still in Houston, working as a graphic artist
     for Texaco's research lab here.

     I'm a cradle Episcopalian. In high school I was active in EYC and 
the
     Happening movement; I even squeezed in a Faith Alive weekend. My
     church activities were pretty dormant in my college years, although 
I
     was blessed to befriend a lot of Christians of different persuasions
     who challenged me to grow spiritually.

     After college I felt the need to get involved in a parish; I
     eventually joined St. Mark's, Houston, and jumped right in. Right 
now
     I'm a lector and EFM mentor, and I'm in my second year as junior
     warden. All of the activity is, I guess, a scattershot attempt to
     figure out how I am supposed to best serve God and the church. I'm
     not sure when I'll get an answer to the question. Hey, I'm young
     still, and I suppose I'm in no rush.

     I have been a lurker on this list for some time so I've decided to
     come out of hiding. I am a cradle Episcopalian, born and raised in
     Chatham, New York about 30 miles from Albany. I attended an Epis.
     girls school (St. Agnes) in Albany and attended All Saints
     Catherdral. Among the more interesting things I have done are: (1)
     live in a developing country for several years, (2) survive a failed
     marriage, (3) raise 3 terrific sons pretty much on my own (I am 
going
     to be grandmother to a baby girl in April!) and (4) get a job with
     the Dept. of Agriculture doing research on the well-being of rural
     residents in the U.S. After having an awful experience with a
     charasmatic church in Fairfax, Va. I am looking for another Epis.
     church. These are the essentials.

     I am associate professor of English at Mount Saint Vincent

     Church, Halifax.

     Once upon a time I wrote a dissertation, which became a book, on
     Anglican hymn editing and publishing in the 19th century, focusing 
on
     _Hymns Ancient and Modern_ in its earliest editions.  Lurking on
     ANGLICAN is the nearest I have come since to that experience of
     immersing myself (through the archival material) in 19thC 
theological
     and liturgical discussions among laity and clergy. The discussions
     are just as heated by times. I am enjoying lurking ... may 
contribute
      ... may get overwhelmed ... we'll see.

                               Biography last updated Jan 12

     I was born at Spokane, Washington, in 1936.  I became a junior high
     school teacher and, later, a teacher educator.  I was a professor of
     education at the University of Mississippi and Montana State
     University before coming to my present position as a department head
     in the College of Education at Jacksonville State University.

     My paternal grandfather was a Unitarian and a socialist.  My 
maternal
     grandfather was a Christian Scientist and a reformed heavy drinker
     (so I was told).  My father was killed in an accident when I was 19
     months of age.  I attended Christian Science Sunday school through
     high school.  I was exposed to "mainstream" protestantism during
     summers at "Y" camp.

     I attended a Presbyterian college for my freshman year.  Later, at a
     state university I was affliated with the college YMCA.  I visited
     Episcopal, Methodist, Presbyterian, and Lutheran churches in search
     of a "home."  During my first year as a teacher I was baptized and
     confirmed in the Episcopal church.

     I absented myself from the Episcopal church for about 15 years after
     several months of dealing with my arrested social development 
through
     psychotherapy . I also moved South--first for graduate studies, then
     for employment.  I associated myself with Unitarian/Universalist
     churches in Baton Rouge and Memphis and with their "mail order"
     Church of the Larger Fellowship.

     I married for the first time in 1973 at the age of 37.  It was a
     relationship doomed to failure from the very beginning, but I 
refused
     to admit it and tried hard to make it work until we divorced six
     years later.  I found myself in a highly anxious and depressed 
state.
     With the help of a psychologist who was Christian and Jungian in his
     orientation, I was healed.

     I married again in 1981.  This time to a very strong and positive
     woman. Small world--her mother was a layreader and treasurer of All
     Saints Episcopal Church in Kangshan, Taiwan.  Shortly after our
     marriage I accepted a new position at Montana State University.  We
     moved to Bozeman and settled on the Episcopal parish there as our
     church home.  For me, it felt like a real homecoming although the
     prayer book had changed and I soon saw my first woman priest.  In
     Bozeman I completed four years of Education for Ministry.  I served
     on the vestry.  I became a lay eucharistic minister and hospital
     visitor.  I was approached about entering formation for the 
diaconate
     which was just about to begin in the Diocese of Montana.  I decided
     to try it.  By the end of what proved to be a two and one-half year
     period of preparation and training I believed I was meant to be a
     deacon.

     In the winter of 1990 I accepted a new position as department head
     and professor of education at Jacksonville State University.  I took
     up my new responsibilites in April of that year.  I commuted back to
     Montana to complete deacon formation and was ordained a deacon on
     October 6, 1990.  From that day to this I have served as deacon at
     St. Luke's church here in Jacksonville.  The people of St. Luke's 
and
     I are continuing to learn what a deacon is and, so far, are pleased
     with what we have discovered.

     My wife and I have one son, Andrew, who just turned eight years old.
     Our interests include politics, travel, drama, dancing, and keeping
     reasonably fit.

     I am a sporadic reader of the Anglican list and expect to contribute
     little. It is useful for me to see, however, the subjects that
     generate discussion.

     Robert Ellison is a PhD candidate in English at the University of
     North Texas.  He holds a Teaching Fellowship at North Texas and is 
an
     adjunct instructor in the English Department at Dallas Baptist
     University.

     His dissertation is a study of Victorian preaching--specifically the
     sermons of John Henry Newman, George MacDonald, and Charles Haddon
     Spurgeon--from the perspective of orality/literacy theory.

     Robert expects to complete the PhD in the spring of 1995 and will be
     job-hunting in earnest beginning this summer and fall.  He is
     primarily interested in teaching in the English department (perhaps
     with some work in Religion) of a church-affiliated school.  He would
     appreciate hearing from anyone with suggestions of schools to 
contact
     or other tips for the job hunt.

     I'm a church musician who supports her music habit by working as a
     librarian at Birmingham-Southern College (Internet address:
     mfields%gateway at bsc.edu). I also have a _very_ small-press music
     publishing business, Alderpoint Press. My husband is the rector of
     St. Thomas Church here in Birmingham, the newest parish (for the 
next
     week or so) in the diocese.  I joined this list out of curiosity and
     have stayed because of increasing interest in and affection for the
     participants.

     (As an aside, my given name--good southern fashion--is Mary Alice.
     MA is what people eventually wind up calling me, and that seemed
     appropriate in the context of such an oddly personal medium.) My
     personal theological/liturgical grounding is
     high-church-which-goes-forth-to-love-and-serve-the-Lord.  Left to my
     own devices, I mostly play Bach.  And I really like the way this 
list
     works.

                               Biography last updated Aug 23 1993

     I'm a 47 year old GWM, member of the graduate faculty of the
     University of Florida, teaching at our tiny Orlando satellite 
campus.
     My teaching responsibilities are mainly statistics, research 
methods,
     and health care administration.  My research centers on moral
     development.  Yes, I realize that those don't seem to go together.
     Praise God for diversity!

     I was raised in a strict anglocatholic home where religion was not
     much discussed or reflected on but simply worn like clothing.  It 
was
     not until I went away to Sewanee as an undergrad that I really
     discovered the protestant side of the Episcopal church.  What a
     shock. That, combined with revisions of the BCP, drove me to convert
     to the Roman rite, where I remained for half a dozen years.

     In that time, I discovered real spiritual direction from a variety 
of
     sources.  I also took a degree in comparative religion and read
     nearly everything I could get my hands on about mysticism.

     In a transformation so slow and gradual that it seems now a seamless
     continuum, I moved from archconservative anglocatholic to liberal
     anglo- catholic to catholic-practicing christocentric universalist.
     At the same time, my spiritual perspective moved from
     Augustinian/Benedictine to Franciscan.  Similarly, I moved from a
     highly intellectualized and dogmatized theology to one of extreme
     simplicity.  I love the forms, signs and symbols of the church but I
     am deeply suspicious of its organization and its preoccupation with
     authority.

     At this point, I am active in spiritual direction and in the work of
     the Third Order, Society of St. Francis, in which I have made my 
life
     profession. My superiors in the Order do not ask too many questions
     about my orthodoxy, so I do not often get into dilemmas like Cindy's
     priest and the trinity.  In my life and in my work, I make no claims
     to having a corner on the truth. I'm deeply suspicious of persons 
who
     have all the answers, or can tie neat bows around complex moral
     issues.  But, as I often have nothing concrete to offer as an
     alternative (a state which does not bother me at all but bothers
     others mightily from time to time), I often sound more like a 
tearer-
     down than a builder-up.  And, in fact, a great deal of my spiritual
     growth has come from tearing down and throwing out religious 
edifices
     in which I have lived in comfort and wandering around out in the
     rubble-strewn street. Happily, I've run into Jesus a couple of times
     in the process.

     Peace to you all.  I think of you as a wonderful extended family and
     pray that you will forgive my too-frequent lapses into sarcasm.

     I'm a 30 y.o. Anglican priest from Melbourne, Australia, now looking
     four years of ordained ministry in the face.  I suppose that I'm a
     'liberal Catholic', but I'm not entirely convinced the word 
'liberal'
     means anything anymore.  Perhaps, radical catholic would be better,
     if it did seem such an oxymoron!  Having completed by two curacies,
     I'm now working, studying and teaching.  I work for the General 
Board
     of Religious Education in Melbourne, which is like what's left of 
the
     Educational department at 815 in New York, where I'm national
     administrator for EFM Australia, and national developement officer
     for the Catechumenate.  I tutor systematics and patristics at the
     United Faculty of Theology in Melbourne, an ecumenical theological
     education where R.C., Reformed and Anglican Churches have pooled
     their resources to train candidates for ministry.  I'm also doing a
     doctorate (ha, ha!) in the structuring and role of experience in
     Second Century theology (Apostolic Fathers, Apologists) at Monash
     University.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     Greetings all!  I was born in 1956 in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, baptized
     RC, attended RC elementary school, and served as an altar boy until
     eighth grade.  During high school, I drifted away from institutional
     Christianity by venturing into Eastern religious practices, namely,
     TM and Yoga.  At 20, I happened upon "The Chronicles of Narnia" and
     thus began a journey back to the God of my youth as was taught to me
     in the Christian faith.  For 10 years I journeyed in different
     Protestant churches.  I was ordained as an elder in 1985 and served
     in that capacity in a reformed Southern Baptist church.

     After barely surviving (spiritually, that is) a church split there, 
I
     eventually sought haven in an Anglican church (St Andrews, Lake 
Worth
     FL), and was received in the same in 1988.  Currently I am living in
     Raleigh, North Carolina with my dear wife of 18 years(!) and two
     blessings Benjamin (11) and Andrea (7).  I am a programmer by trade
     (although my BA is in Languages and Linguistics from Florida 
Atlantic
     University) and I am a first year EFM student.  I attend The Church
     of the Good Shepherd in Raleigh. I believe I started my subscription
     to ANGLICAN sometime in the Fall of 1993. My favorite NT Scripture 
of
     late has been the tail end of John 21:22 "...what is that to thee?
     follow thou me."

     I teach History and Religious Studies at Brooklyn College, City
     University of New York and hold degrees from Wesleyan, Harvard, and
     Columbia. I research and write on Anglo-American religious culture 
in
     the 18th and 19th centuries. I teach courses in American Religious
     History, an Introduction to Judaism, Christianity and Islam, Jesus
     and the Christian Tradition, as well as courses in modern history 
and
     the American Revolution. I serve as historian for my parish, St. 
Luke
     in the Fields in New York City, and am a member of the Guild of
     Scholars of the Episcopal Church.

     So there it is - in brief. It sounds pretty stodgy. What else would
     be of interest? I need constant fixes of mystery novels, BBC
     comedies, and long distance swimming.

                               Biography last updated Aug 23 1993

     I was born and raised here in Ashland, KY, and have spent most of my
     adult life here, despite several attempts to leave.  I am Director 
of
     Library Services at Ashland Community College, a two year 
institution
     that is part of the University of Kentucky.  We have about 3300
     students.  I previously worked as Youth services librarian at Cabell
     County Public Library (WVA), Reference Librarian at Marshall
     Univeristy, and as librarian English teacher, jack of all trades at 
a
     Roman Catholic High School.  I have an MS in Library Science, MA in
     English, and am currently a PhD student at Indiana University of
     Pennsylvania in Literature and Criticism.

     I was raised in the Church of God, discovered the Episcopal church
     when in graduate school.  When I came back to Ashland I continued to
     wroship with my parents, and was even church organist (I began life
     as a music major).  I finally couldn't handle the fundamentalist 
mind
     set any longer!  At about the same time, the choir director was 
fired
     because someone's daughter didn't get to sing the solo in the
     Christmas program.  I decided it was time to move on! I did some 
work
     as substitute organist for about a year, church shopping as I went, 
I
     learned a lot, but in the end realized that my place was indeed in
     the Episcopal church.  I was confirmed at Calvary Church Ashland in
     1979, a decision I have never regreted.  Most of my family had, and
     still have, serious doubts about my salvation!  I was determined not
     to get involved, having seen enough of church business in my 
organist
     days! I did, however, agree to sing in the choir.  I went to 
Cursillo
     in 1986 -- wonderful!  Now I am Diocesian Secretary of Daughters of
     the King, member of Calvary's Vestry and Search Committee, and
     organist for our 8:00 Sunday Eucharist.  So much for not being
     involved.  After some really awful experencies growing up in a very
     conservative church, I am thankful to have found a place where I can
     worship, where despite those political differences we discussed,
     there is a core of Christian beliefs I agree with, and where the
     service is always beautiful (even if a little ragged around the
     edges!)

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I am not a cradle Episcopalian, rather I come from a tradition 
fairly
     far removed, that of the Church of Christ (Campbellite, no
     instrumental music, etc.). I'm also an Air Force brat. I got my 
first
     degree (BS-Math, 1967) from the University of Houston and promptly
     exercised my right of a free US citizen to avoid the draft by
     enlisting in the Army. After three years of more fun than I could
     ever imagine (including 1 1/2 years in Korea, I left to pursue a
     lucrative career as a computer geek with Sperry Univac. I'm a
     consulting type (meaning I get rented out to other organizations) so
     I've had the opportunity to learn the intracicies of several
     different kinds of businesses. I'm currently working as a consultant
     at a major chemical company.

     Somewhere along there, I received a call to the ministry (in the 
CofC
     this is a fairly literal thing, involving telephones - no
     psycho-spiritual stuff.) The CofC doesn't "ordain" ministers in the
     sense that Anglicans do, but I was sufficiently so to be later
     offered an Army Chaplain's commission (which I didn't take). The 
CofC
     also has no formal requirements for ministerial education, but I 
felt
     a major lack thereof and proceeded to matriculate as an M. Div.
     student at Princeton Seminary.  Three years of Presbyterian 
education
     as a CofC minister led me to being confirmed in the Episcopal Church
     by the Rt. Reverend G. P. Mellick Belshaw, III just before my
     graduation.

     This boded ill for my continued employment as a CofC minister, so I
     returned to my earlier calling of computer wizard, where I have been
     stuck ever since. It's not my preferred work, but I can't find
     anything else that pays so well with so little work that I can get
     into (I'm too irreverent to be a successful politician.)

     I am now married to a lady from Arkansas, Dixie Andrus, who was a
     pagan when we met (I am neatly enough also her godfather). We have
     four children from various sources, three of whom fit in the school
     system's category of "special needs". The other one is an 
excessively
     overachieving child and will probably be the first Anglican chosen
     Pope. Dixie and I spend our leisure hours defending them from the
     agendae of the state and school system's social helping
     organizations.

     We are active members of a small mid-Michigan parish (Holy Family,
     Midland). I'd say "very small" but as northern Michigan parishes go,
     we're mid-sized. I am the Sr. Warden (I actually lost the election,
     but the winner did a Sherman and I was stuck.) HF is part of an
     experimental cluster of three rural parishes - meaning we share
     ministry. Among the three parishes, we can afford one and a fraction
     priests and that's with a deficit budget. You may have read that the
     Diocese of Michigan is dividing - our part (tentatively and we hope
     temporarily titled the Diocese of Northern Lower Michigan) will be
     one of the poorer diocese's in the church and our organization for
     ministry will have to be quite different from the more usual
     Episcopalian style. It promises to be an exciting process.

     Dixie is attracting other parents of special ed. children to church 
-
     we recently had our Christmas pageant with over half the children
     being autistic and/or ADD. It gives new meaning to the term
     "handicapped accessible." Possibly a sign of the Holy Spirit at 
work.
     Or at play, I'm not sure which. She has also begun a chapter here of
     the Daughters of the King and we've followed it with a chapter of 
the
     Brotherhood of St. Andrew both of which are the beginnings of what I
     see as a major spiritual growth for the parish.

James Handsfield              (jhh0 at phpdls1.em.cdc.gov)

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I'm a charter member of the Baby Boomers, being born October 5, 
1946,
     approximately 9 months after my father returned from WWII.  I am a
     cradle episcopalian who grew up in the diocese of Long Island and 
was
     a member of the Cathedral of the Incarnation in Garden City, NY.  I
     was baptized by the Rt. Rev. James DeWolfe when I was two months old
     (Dec. 10, 1946) and later, at age 12 was confirmed by the same
     bishop.  From the time I was confirmed I was an acolyte at the
     Cathedral and was inducted into the Order of St. Vincent at age 13.

     In 1961 my family moved to England, where church membership and
     attendance became almost non-existant.  When I did attend, it was
     usually at the church in Kingston-upon-Thames (I don't remember the
     name, but at the time it housed the coronation stone of Saxon kings,
     hence the name of the town), or on occasion at St. Albans,
     Teddington.  After one year of school at the US Air Force High 
School
     in Bushy Park (the former SHAEF Headquarters), the Queen wanted her
     land back and the school was torn down.  For the next two years I 
was
     in school at the Leysin American School, Leysin, Switzerland, and
     then one year at the American College of Switzerland, also in 
Leysin.
     I think I went to church once during that time.

     1965 saw us returning stateside to San Diego, California, and still
     not attending church.  I received a friendly notice from the
     Selective Service System in the summer of 1970 that I was being
     reclassified 1A, and that with a draft lottery number of 24 I could
     expect another friendly notice subsequently.  I wandered down to the
     local recruiter and asked what were my chances of getting a
     reasonably good job in the Army if I let myself be drafted (the Viet
     Nam War was in full swing).  The recruiter responded "Great if you
     like the Infantry!"  That led to my enlisting as a medical equipment
     repairman and I reported in October, 1970.  After my training, I was
     sent to Okinawa.

     After about a month, I was feeling down, and was reading Time
     Magazine -- the one in June, 1971 that featured the Jesus Movement.
     I decided that I would try going to church again.  Since I was still
     quite green (no pun intended), I considered that in the Army there
     were Catholics, Protestants, and Jews. Since I was neither Catholic
     or Jewish, I must be Protestant, so I went to a Protestant service.
     I came out feeling that I hadn't been to church, and that I can read
     two verses of scripture as well as anyone! During the week,g I
     discovered that there was an Episcopal Chaplain who celebrated
     Eucharist at 8:00 AM Sunday morning in another part of the chapel
     facility.  I went and was blown away by the Gospel -- the one about
     all the angels rejoicing for one person returning to God!  I was
     hooked.  Not that attendance has been anywhere near perfect, but I
     never again entirely forsook my relationship with God or the Church.

     After the Army, and many more years of education, I found myself as 
a
     PhD candidate in biology and with an MPH in epidemiology and
     statistics.  I became involved to some extent in charismatic 
renewal.
     I also became active in Happening, experiencing the event in Tucson
     and being on the team to introduce Happening to San Diego.  At that
     first San Diego Happening, there was an adult Happener who is now my
     wife (dangerous things, these Happenings!).  Marcy and I have been
     married almost 9 years and we have a son, Matthew, who was born in
     August, 1991, thanks to the skill of the infertility clinic nurses
     and doctors at Kaiser in San Diego.

     During this time, Marcy and I became very involved in Cursillo,
     having attended in 1983 (on separate weekends).  We have served on
     many Cursillo teams, and I had the privilege of being Rector of
     Cursillo # 59 in San Diego. Marcy served as treasurer of the San
     Diego Cursillo for three years, and I served half of a term on the
     Secretariat.  I also resumed my license as a lay reader and lay
     eucharistic minister at Trinity Church, Escondido.

     At the end of April, 1992, the funds for my job as a biostatistician
     with the County of San Diego Department of Health Services ran out,
     and before they could secure new funds, I was offered my present
     position at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in
     Atlanta.  After a week of agonizing, Marcy and I made the most
     difficult decision of our marriage and decided to accept the
     position, leaving family (my father and marcy's parents, brother, 
and
     sister), friends, and community behind.  We arrived in Atlanta on
     July 10, 1992.

     After several months of searching, we moved our canonical residence
     to St. Patrick's, Atlanta -- a very charismatic parish.  Within six
     months, we found ourselves becoming very dissatisfied over the
     extreme conservatism of much of the membership (political and
     theological) and what I considered laxity with the liturgy.  We
     started searching again, and last month (December) moved our
     membership to St. Bede's in Atlanta.

     Marcy and I are in our second year of EFM, and last November I
     started a course in spiritual direction being given by John
     Westerhoff III at St. Bartholomew's.  I've also been blessed with
     finding a new spiritual director, and I'm once again taking up
     chalice as a lay eucharistic minister at St. Bede's.  I'm in the
     throes of trying to discern whether I have a vocation to the
     diaconate, or whether I can carry out my ministries as a lay person,
     so any and all prayers will be most appreciated.

     We still don't really know why God called us to Atlanta, but we hope
     to have some answers before long.

     Born and raised in Albany NY member of All Saints Cathedral Parish;
     mentored by Fr. Loren Gavitt, complier of St. Augustine's Prayer 
Book
     and Fr. George De Mille, historian of the Episcopal Church back 
then.
     Ordained in 1955; moved to the Diocese of New York in 56, where I am
     still canonically resident, although I have not lived there since
     1971.

     I have not been in full time parish work since 1971, although I have
     had responsibility for parishes in Connecticut and South Carolina, 
as
     Vicar and as Interim, as well as part-time assistant. Currently I am
     part-time assistasnt at St. Paul's Parish K Street, Washington DC,
     where I 'hang out' on Sunday and Wednesday each week.

     I earn my living as a Financial Planner and Broker, working
     especially with clergy, parishioners and parishes and those who feel
     that their assets are too small to receive adequate treatment from
     thewell known Investment Companies.  My business runs from my home,
     and I work by mail and telephone for those of my clients who are not
     in the greater DC area. I can be described either as a Conservative
     radical, or as a radical conservative, both in poletics and in
     theology.  A life long Catholic of Anglican persuasion through the
     Episcopal Church, I do not have some of the problems some of the
     other Catholics have - such as the Church in Wales!

     I am very new to this list and to the Episcopal Church.  My husband
     and I are thinking very seriously of joining the Anglican church.  
We
     have been worshipping in an excellent church in our area where we
     feel we are being fed spiritually.  We like the Prayer Book and the
     structure.  We have been there about 6 months and attend a bible
     study there for over a year now.  We will most likely be beginning
     classes in the near future.  I have had the blessing of worshipping
     at a Anglican Cathedral in Exeter England recently. I will never
     forget it.

                               Biography last updated Apr 19

     I am a 55 year old GWM, Professor of English at Northeastern 
Illinois
     University (Chicago) and Director of Graduate Studies, Member of
     Church of the Ascension (Chicago), and "parent" to two adorable
     miniature dachshunds (Franklin and Eleanor).

     My background in religion is heavily Roman Catholic, having been
     baptised into that church and having, now, spent 27 years with my
     life companion, a Jesuit trained RC.  But it has also been something
     of a mixed bag since my mother converted to the Seventh-day 
Adventist
     church and I also had experiences, quite unsatisfactory, there. 
After
     worshiping as a Roman Catholic for many years but searching, too, 
for
     years, I officially became an Episcopalian about 6 years ago and 
have
     thoroughly enjoyed the experience, especially the ability openly to
     address issues that were often off limits in the RC arena.

     I have always been active in church activities.  Over the years I
     have done a great deal of lay preaching and have functioned in 
almost
     every capacity open to a lay person in whatever parish I was
     attending.  As a professor of literature, I am sometimes accused of
     "preaching literature" in my graduate seminars.  I do agree with
     Trollope that the novelist can often perform the same task as the
     homilist, and I find that many people who might reject an outright
     biblical message are drawn to the same idea when presented through
     literature.  I've done retreats, Quiet Days, and parish series on
     various authors and their religious messages, most recently series
     based on the sacramental vision of Flannery O'Connor and the hidden
     spiritual messages in the works of Iris Murdoch.  I have also worked
     with Eliot's Four Quartets as an outline for our own spiritual
     journey and, as a matter of fact, begin a new version of that series
     next week.

     I am on the vestry at Ascension and also the newly formed Search
     Committee.  I request the prayers of those on this group as we begin
     the process of finding a new rector for our parish.

     I was baptized UCC at age 5.  Stayed in the Congregational church,
     singing in the boy's choir, until age 13 when the family switched to
     the Presbyterian.  Married a cradle Episcopalian with a strong 
family
     history of active women in the church.  I was confirmed in the
     Episcopal Church in 1955 and have been active in various roles ever
     since.  I have sung in a choir since age 5, and don't quite know how
     I would act without that exercise of prayer and praise every Sunday.
     I made my Cursillio in 1977 [Hawaii #3], and have been on 12 teams
     since then.  I became a layreader with chalics license about five
     years ago, and went into our Diocesan Institute training program
     aboutt four years ago.  I was ordained as a Deacon on the 7th of
     November, 1993.  Professionally, I am an OBGyn physician, and work
     currently in the Kaiser HMO in Honolulu.  My diaconal ministry is
     healing, which is an extension of what I have been doing for the 
past
     35 years professionally.  I was one of the original members of the
     ANGLICAN mail group when it sort of split off from the 'FREE
     CATHOLIC' group.  I have been active in e-mail discussions since
     1982, and have been on the Net for about 2.5 years.  I look on the
     group as another committed comunity in the Body of Christ.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I became a Christian in high school because of a charismatic house
     fellowship.  I became an Episcopalian in college because the 
history,
     liturgy and tradition I found in this branch of the chutch fed me in
     a very way.  I like to joke that while the Episcopal church couldn't
     have mananged to convert me in the first place, the house fellowship
     couldn't have managed to keep me this long.

     So far my church homes (over the past 20 years) have included:  Good
     Shepherd, Rosemont PA; Christ Church, Bronxville NY; Holy Apostles,
     Manhattan NY; Ascension, Wakefield RI; and Grace Church, Salem MA.  
I
     am now living in the Rectory at St. Lukes and St. Margarets in a
     shared household (no, I'm not ordained--the church just lets some of
     us live here.)

     By profession, I'm a wordsmith: a freelance copy editor/proofreader.
     By avocation, I'm a writer--science fiction, fantasy, even
     horror--mostly unpublished.  By conviction I'm an Episcopalian.

     So far, in various churches, I've taught Sunday school, run the
     Christian ed program, run the acolytes group, taught adult ed, 
worked
     in the thrift shop, served as treasurer.  Right now I'm putting out
     the newsletter.

                               Biography last updated Apr 18

     I'm a cradle Anglican.  Born in Montreal in 1938, I lived in England
     for a year before coming to Toronto over 20 years ago. No crises of
     faith or need to change to another persuasion.  I think I fall into
     the category of childlike faith.  I love bells and smells and all 
the
     wonderful music of the choral tradition although my regular church
     offers only excellent music -- and The Book of Common Prayer to 
which
     I remain loyal.  I notice, however, I have adapted to many of the
     changes I run into; it seems to be Cranmer's language that has a 
hold
     on me.  Thus, Rite I is all right.

     For about a year and a half I've been a volunteer at an AIDS shelter
     run by the Little Brothers of the Good Shepherd and wish I could do
     much more of this sort of thing.  My AIDS ministry is a very
     important part of my life and has profoundly affected my
     spirituality.

     Three grown children and a grandson.  I live in the country with my
     husband of nearly 2 years (following a 20-year courtship!) and we
     both commute to our respective jobs at the University of Toronto.  I
     sing and garden with a passion.  Meyers-Briggs says I'm ENFP;
     Eneagram says 2.

     One of the few, the proud, a cradle Episcopalian!  Married with one
     child, 7. I work as a Geophysicist for a large multinational company
     exploring for oil overseas. Currently I oversee our computing
     environment, and supervise a staff of 10.  Having been through three
     major layoffs in two years I have had more opportunities for prayer
     and ministry than I would really like.

     I recently became a mentor for EFM, I've been teaching Sunday school
     (little kiddos, first-third grade) for three years now, and am a
     chalice-bearer. I am also the lead guitar for our folk choir, and
     play at many other events (Ultreyas, funerals, weddings, etc).  I
     made Cursillo about 18 months ago, and coincidently, the spiritual
     director was John Price, who is also on this list. Hi, John! My wife
     is a Stephen Ministry trainer, our Aids Care Team co-founder, and a
     truly beautiful person.

     I am a professional librarian (for the past 25 years) and for the
     latter part of my career have been Librarian for the British and
     Foreign Bible Society.  I was directly employed by the Society until
     1984 when their historical collections were placed on deposit at
     Cambridge University Library, and I am now on the payroll of the UL
     but seconded to look after the BFBS collections: the best of both
     worlds, I think!  I am also an Anglican priest (ordained 1992) and
     Honorary Assistant Curate at St Andrew's Church, Swavesey, which is
     the village where I live.  We have 3 churches in our group and may
     soon have a 4th.  I am also a Chaplain to the Cambridgeshire Army
     Cadet Force, a youth organisation for 13-18.75 year olds, boys and
     (latterly) girls. Life is therefore rather hectic at times.

                               Biography last updated Aug 23 1993

     I am a 31 year old single Asian male.  I was born in 1961 in
     Richmond, Virginia, the second of my father's five children.  My
     parents both grew in China and met at school in the US.  My father
     was converted to Christianity there by a Southern Baptist 
missionary,
     Annabelle Coleman.  ("Romain" is both a loose transliteration of my
     Chinese name and also intended to sound vaguely like the name
     Coleman).  My mother's family became Christians earlier, and 
included
     a Methodist minister.

     I grew up among Southern Baptists, but I attended high school at St.
     Christoper's in Richmond, which is affiliated with the church 
schools
     in the Diocese there.  My interests musical (violin, voice) and
     intellectual were stimulated by my exposure the Episcopal Church
     there, so when I went to college in Princeton, I attended Trinity
     Church there.  I finally got around to baptism and confirmation in
     1985.  During the summer of 1984, I also hung out at the (then)
     Mission Church of St. John the Evangelist, where, to my surprise, it
     turns out other ANGLICAN members attend these days.

     I currently work with UNIX network interfaces at a computer company
     in San Jose, CA, and am a member of St. Mark's, Palo Alto.  We are a
     small, struggling parish; we have experimented with our Sunday
     liturgy over the past five years, starting from Marion Hatchett's
     Pre-reformation Eucharistic Liturgies.  Our service currently bears 
a
     resemblance to the inclusive language rite in the Supplemental
     Liturgical Texts, but is subject to change with the church seasons.

     A couple of years ago, I joined an Education for Ministry class to
     take the place of parishoner who was too busy to attend.  When this
     same parishoner signed up for mentor training but could not attend, 
I
     again took his place. Now, I am a co-mentor in an EFM group
     comprising first and second year students.  To me, this is proof
     positive that God moves in mysterious ways.

Robert Kellerman              (kellerma at pilot.msu.edu)
                               USA: Michigan (Lansing)
                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     I was born and raised in Flint, MI, in 1961 to long-time families of
     farmers and autoworkers. (As my parents met at AC Spark Plug, I owe
     my very existence, in some metaphysical way, to the General Motors
     Corporation.) I was raised Roman Catholic, post-Vatican II, in a 
very
     hip, let's rock the establishment parish. St. Leo's School was a
     peculiar blend of Catholic rigor and early 1970s cutting edge
     teaching pedagogy, probably the best school I ever went to.

     My initial interest in the Episcopal Church came from the music and
     liturgy; I've been a choral musician for years and early music
     dilletante, playing recorder and singing tenor (and occasionally
     countertenor). When I enter heaven, I fully expect that John
     Shepard's Missa Cantate will be my soundtrack.

     I left the RC Church for a number of years, simply unable to deal
     with much of the stands I couldn't accept. I was not attending an
     Episcopal Church but had a number of friends who were; I sang
     evensong and lessons and carols occasionally at St. Paul's Episcopal
     in Flint, attended many Anglican parishes in England, summer of '82,
     but nver committed to anything.

     I started grad work at Michigan State University in medieval and
     Renaissance literature, and came into a department where 
spirituality
     seemed deeply suspect -- lots of hostile academics and grad students
     -- and began the tremendous process of coming out as a gay man,
     easily the most defining event of my life. (Not that it's over. You
     never STOP coming out.)

     Why am I here, now? I haven't fully been able to articulate this --
     though certainly watching a few friends die of AIDs, seeing my
     Christian friends becoming more balanced, sane and compassionate 
than
     anybody else I knew, and reading lots of spiritual writing in my
     coursework all helped. It'd be easy to say I came to the Episcopal
     Church because my work requires an Anglophilism of sorts, but it's 
be
     more accurate to say that I found this to be a Church which combines
     spiritual depth with intellectual rigor. The flexibility -- the fact
     that we don't all HAVE to agree -- I find liberating. The liturgy
     feeds me. Here I am home.

     I'm currently a doctoral candidate, working on a dissertation about
     the penitential psalms in English literature (medieval versions,
     Wyatt, Donne, Herbert, et al). I attend All Saints Parish in East
     Lansing, MI, where I sing in the choir, am a lay reader, serve on 
the
     music committee, and have just completed the inquirer's class, and
     will be received into the Church in mid-April. Welcome me aboard!

     Other salient facts: I drink lots of coffee. I have never owned a
     car, which, considering my background, is pretty heretical. I will
     finish school sometime before, oh, say, the turn of the century. I
     enjoy live theater, early music, reading of all types, lately lots 
of
     contemporary American fiction. I think Shakespeare ought to be
     canonized. I could live as comfortably on the Dakota prairie as I
     could in east-side Detroit. In short, I am a combination of blue
     collar kid who made good and hopeless arts fanatic. I would probably
     make a pretty good monastic. My politics lean to the left, but
     frankly, any system that allows people plenty of say in what the
     common good is going to be and then delivers it would be all right
     with me. I see the Church as yet another part of that great noble
     experiment we call Building a Better World.

     I live in Chevy Chase, MD.  I work at the National Geographic 
Society
     as the Director of Photography.  I am a recent convert to the
     Anglican church.  I was raised Roman Catholic and my wife was raised
     as a Protestant Presbyterian.  When our daughter was born, we wanted
     her baptised and both felt most comfortable at that point with the
     Anglican tradition and the values espoused by our ministers.  I feel
     like I've again found a spiritual home after years of being "in the
     wilderness."  I'm hoping to learn from this electronic dialogue more
     about Anglican traditions and values and how these values are
     incorporated into daily life in our society.

     Born: 31 Jan 1959 baptized: 29 Mar 1959 (Easter Day); confirmed: 30
     Mar 1969 (Palm Sunday)

     Married: Karen, 1986; 2 children: Jennifer (1989), Alexander (1991)

     I'm a computer programmer currently working for a company called
     Smallworld in Cambridge (that's England, not Mass.).  We develop and
     sell GIS (Geographical Information System) software.  I help develop
     and support our `own-brand' database system.

     For the last 7 years we have lived in Saint Ives (about 15 miles NW
     of Cambridge).  We worship in our local parish church, All Saints,
     which is high anglo-catholic.  I take my turn on the server's rota:
     m.c., thurifer, acolyte ... my mother is waiting for my son to be
     boat boy---it's okay, Mary Ann, we only have a boat boy on high days
     and holy days :-); OTOH, we don't have female servers.

     I'm also on the PCC (that's the Parochial Church Council), and a
     member of the deanery and diocesan synods.  And I'm treasurer of the
     local council of churches (Churches Together in Saint Ives, which
     brings together CofE, RC, Methodist, United Reformed Church and
     Pentecostal).

     If pressed, I would describe myself as liberal catholic.  I'm one of
     those bigots who supports women priests, and opposes 
freely-available
     abortion, euthanasia, capital punishment (esp. for women priests :-)
     etc.

     We have an interest in community life and are members of the Friends
     of Little Gidding.  This place `where prayer has been valid' is 
about
     10 miles from where we live and, inspired by Nicholas Ferrar and 
T.S.
     Eliot, houses a community of Christian families and singles called
     the Community of Christ the Sower.  I am interested in how this list
     develops as an Anglican community.

     Other topics of interest?  Working for the unity of the church.
     Bringing up my children to love and serve the Lord.  And I'm an
     amateur dipper in liturgy, liberal theology, relationship to 
science,
     church history, what's wrong with the *rest* of the church, etc.
     Sometimes I even try and read the Bible.  Occasionally, I've been
     known to try and relate some of this to the way I live.

                               Biography last updated Apr 19

     I'm an Anglo male, born in 1962. I grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio and
     Southern Maine. I went to college in Chicago and have lived the last
     seven years in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I was raised in the Liberal
     Protestant tradition and discovered High Church Episcopalianism in
     college. I have been on the "net" since 1986 through my work. I am a
     programmer for a software company (Interleaf, Inc.). I am gay and
     have been in a relationship (my first) since 16 January 1993.

     I belong to a small urban parish, St Luke & St Margaret. It is one 
of
     the biggest parts of my life. Over the years I have served as
     accolyte, communion bread baker, church school teacher, greeter,
     stewardship leader, altar guild member, search committee member,
     vestry member, and thurifer. This parish has been my spiritual
     school. It has taught me so much about Christ incarnate in his body;
     it has opened my eyes and given me gifts beyond what I have given.

     In recent months I have felt a stronger need to try to grow in 
faith.
     To try to learn more, to try to pray more, to try to *want* to pray
     more, most fundamentally to have my faith *matter* to me more.  I've
     responed by joining a study group at church, reading on my own and
     trying to set aside a very few minutes (ten to fifteen) in prayer in
     the morning. I have found that when my sweetheart is in the shower 
is

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I'm single, 33, a proposal administrator for Electronic Data Systems
     Corporation in Lansing, Michigan.  I live in East Lansing, Michigan,
     a few blocks from the Michigan State University campus, and I attend
     nearby All Saints Episcopal Church.  I was born in Milwaukee,
     Wisconsin, where I was baptized in Our Lady of Good Hope Roman
     Catholic Church; most of my childhood was spent in Rochester Hills,
     Michigan, a Detroit suburb, and I was confirmed at St. Irenaeus RC
     Church in Rochester Hills.

     In 1984 I began attending St. Philip's Episcopal Church in Rochester
     (no Hills) and was received as an Anglican by Bp. H. Coleman McGehee
     during the Great Vigil of Easter at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul
     in Detroit.  I didn't so much run away from the Roman Catholic 
Church
     as run to Anglicanism.  The attractions for me were the beauty and
     relative simplicity of Episcopal liturgy as I discovered it in the
     1979 Book of Common Prayer and my love of Anglican sacred music as I
     discovered it in music history courses in the MSU School of Music.

     After a couple of years as an Anglican, I discovered
     Anglo-Catholicism; it is indeed possible in the Diocese of Michigan
     to take two years to ever hear of A-C approaches to sacraments and
     worship.  We're just east of the biretta belt, and the parishes I've
     been a member of both have proud low-church heritages.  Friends
     visiting my house for the first time gasp at my admittedly excessive
     collection of hymnals, prayer books, Bibles, and books about 
liturgy.
     As a non-Roman Catholic layperson, I have no business owning a
     complete Sacramentary, for instance.  But liturgy is what I think
     about constantly when I'm not participating in it; I even see
     liturgical connections in the festivities surrounding a Michigan
     State home football game.

     I encounter God most powerfully in worship that reaches through the
     centuries and joins us with those "on another shore and in a greater
     light" as well as the faithful throughout the world.  This is what I
     found again in Anglicanism, and I continue to meet God in both
     comforting and challenging experiences of the Divine Office, Holy
     Eucharist, Education for Ministry (EFM - I'm in my 3rd year), and 
our
     parish choir (baritone, cantor, and infrequent conductor).  I'm
     seeking spiritual direction right now, feeling somewhat
     directionless, and praying for clarity of gifts and ministry.

     Things are just a bit too comfortable right now, and I've a strong
     feeling God has a job for me:  I want to know what it is, and I want
     to take it up joyfully and confidently. ANGLICAN is a tremendous
     source of challenge, fun, and friendship, and I look forward to
     meeting more of you in person over the next year or so (I'll call
     first). <g>  God bless one and all...Scott

                               Biography last updated Aug 23 1993

     I was born and raised Roman Catholic 29 years ago, and though I have
     not always felt my Faith as intensely as I do now, I've never really
     wavered in my fidelity to communion with Rome.  I met my wife, who 
is
     Episcopalian, 3 years ago, thus coming into close contact with
     someone who wasn't RC.  This is not to say I've never met or known
     anyone who wasn't Roman Catholic, it is simply to say I've never
     probed anyone's Faith who wasn't RC.  Incidentally, up until my 
wife,
     I had never dated anyone who wasn't RC, though, to be sure, that was
     purely happenstance; the Church was never going to dictate who I
     should or should not marry, obviously enough.  Though I would never
     become Episcopalian, it does not mean I am not intensely curious
     about your practices and traditions, and especially with how you do
     theology (or don't do it).  The relevance of this for me stems from
     the fact that my wife and I agreed that when, through the Grace of
     God, we have children, we will raise them in the traditions and
     practices of both Churches.  The children, when they have reached
     maturity, will decide for themselves which Communion is right for
     them.  In this fashion we believe that the rift which separates our
     two Churches will lend itself to healing when all people understand
     what each side is saying and also understand what is important and
     why it is important. Our children will be comfortable with both
     Churches, and perhaps through this, there can be some healing, or at
     least a better start.  I have learned immensely from all of you, and
     for that, you have my gratitude.  I thoroughly enjoy reading the
     posts and always look forward to whatever you have to say. I hope 
you
     do not mind responses and critiques that are not really Anglican in
     flavour.  Some reflections from a pilgrim seeking Truth and Love.
     Dominus et pax vobiscum.  Have a blessed and happy Easter!

     I am currently a graduate student in Sociology at the University of
     Connecticut.  Once I begin my Ph.D. (Feb 1995) I plan to specialize
     in medical sociology and feminist theory.

     I was baptized in the Episcopal church and do not remember a time  
in
     my life when I have not been involved in some way, shape, or form.  
I
     attend St. Mark's Episc. Chapel right here on the UCONN campus.  
It's
     unique in that it is not just a campus chapel; it is a parish as
     well.  A large number of faculty and staff are members so it gives
     one a sense of community on this campus of 20,000.

     I was one of the youth advisors at my former parish (Church of the
     Messiah, Santa Ana, CA).  I served in this capacity the fours years 
I
     was an undergraduate at Chapman University (Orange, CA).  I've
     decided to take a break from youth ministy in order to avoid 
complete
     burnout.  I hope that after a a year (or two) off I will get 
involved
     in youth ministry again. My other interest, besides Sociology, is
     music.  I enjoy singing and have my minor in vocal music. I'm
     managing to fit a voice lesson in every week but other than that the
     sociology department keeps me pretty busy.  Are there any other
     singing sociologists out there?

     I grew up in Seattle, Washington, and attended the Unitarian church
     where Bob Fulghum was minister (he of "All I needed to know I 
learned
     in kindergarten" fame) because that's where Mom took us on Sundays
     and Christmas Eve; encountered Christianity in high school through
     friends' experiences with an Assemblies of God church; and shed most
     of it in college (University of Washington, atmospheric science,
     1986).  I began discovering pre-1970 Christianity--a/k/a the history
     of the church!--and liturgical churches; came to State College,
     Pennsylvania ("equally inaccessible from all directions"!), in 1989
     for grad school in meteorology at Penn State; and married Mark in 
May
     1992 in an Episcopalian ceremony.

     I have read the Anglican mailing list since it began; was confirmed
     just after Easter 1993; have resolved to finish writing my master's
     thesis this year; and am adjusting to post-PhD life for Mark
     (meteorology) and the bated-breath feelings of his job search.  I
     produce publications and run the bookstore at a local environmental
     center and am the Mac & world-wide web relative-expert there.  I 
sing
     in the four-person choir at St Francis Episcopal Ministry at Penn
     State, and am working to form an altar guild in that community.  I'm
     restricting even my book "shopping" trips to the university main
     library :) :) :), as I try to live more simply and build community 
at
     work, home, church, and with other friends.  I'm 31, and we really
     want to take the Big Step this year: it's time for kids!

     I became an Episcopalian in 1969, the year that I met and married my
     lovely wife.  At the time, I was a non-practicing Church of Christ.
     We decided to have only one church in our family.  It was easier for
     me to change than my wife who is a cradle Episcopalian.

     After my confirmation and marriage, we have worshipped in many
     churches, here in the United States and overseas.  I was on active
     duty and the Lowe family was a military nomad.  So, we worshipped in
     the local civilian parish or military chapel.

     Upon my retirement, we moved to the Diocese of Chicago where we
     worship at Saint Marks, Geneva.  For us, it is a great place to
     worship the Lord our God.  Our rector left in July 1993 so we are
     actively engaged in our search process.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     My name is pronounced Mannering. I acquired the name in 1964 when I
     married a Canadian mathematician and crossed the Atlantic to Canada
     for a couple of years. We haven't made it back. I've lived longer on
     this continent now than I did over there.

     I am Welsh, and the only member of my family of origin who lives on
     this side of the ditch. I travel "home" as often as I can.

     I am an educator and have taught in many different programs in my 3
     countries. Currently I work in a literacy center here in Raleigh, 
NC.

     I was married in St. Catwg's Church, Gelligaer. My son was baptised
     at St. Alban's church, Ottawa, his father's old church, and my
     daughter at St. Paul's in Charlottetown, PEI. Later we were members
     of All Saints (Westboro) in Ottawa, where our daughter was married
     this last summer. I spent a year on staff at St. John the
     Evangelist's Church in Ottawa, and was also on staff at St. Mark's,
     Raleigh NC. We are currently attending St. Mark's.

     My church experience includes all the lay activities such as vestry,
     lay reader, chalice bearer, LEM, running Church School, organizing
     conferences and events, being on diocesan commissions, going to
     conferences and meetings, ECW, baptismal/confirmation prep,
     writing/editing church mags and writing study programs. I even got
     paid as lay assistant or DRE for a time. I also ran camps and did
     leadership training, spoke and gave workshops in various places...

     I notice that all this is in the past tense... right now I am 
running
     an EFM group, (no longer being Diocesan co-ordinator) and in Feb I
     will be reading exams (GOEs). I still go to church...and sing in the
     choir.  But I have a lot of uncertainty about what I should be doing
     there.  Somehow the church has got pretty stale and less meaningful
     for me. Not Christianity or the Anglican way of being Christian, 
just
     the current state of affairs where I am.

     My feeling could be summed up by saying that I think that God 
doesn't
     need the Episcopal Church, but the Episcopal Church really needs 
God.
     Some of our people seem to see it the other way round. I'm not quite
     sure what I am supposed to do about it...

     I'm waiting for the next adventure.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     Currently working towards a Master's degree in the English 
department
     of the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, I am a
     practising Anglican whose roots in the Faith extend backwards into
     family and cultural history. As such, I've been nurtured in the 
faith
     since birth, and at one point even considered entering the ordained
     ministry.  A blind entry into diocesan politics eventually made me
     realize that I could probably be of greater use to God in a lay
     capacity at the moment . . .  And so I took up English.

     I like to place myself in the middle of the road, but find I have 
the
     odd outburst/propensity for both evangelical and Anglo-Catholic
     expressions of Christianity.  Among my pet peeves are clerical
     dogmatism (especially when I don't agree with the dogma!) and the
     loss of touch with the past among both younger members and the odd
     ecclesiastic; the lack of young people disturbs me, as a young 
person
     (24), as I sometimes wonder what will remain of the Church I have
     been raised in ... But then I have a stubborn faith, too, that
     supports me.

     There.  Baptised two days after birth, what more can I say?

fulfills
     my desire to know what's going on, and to know it first.

     I am a cradle Episcopalian, and am currently "in the process" (as 
the
     phrase goes) in the diocese of Chicago.  God willing, I will be
     entering seminary in the fall of 1995.  At the moment I make my
     living as a PC trainer and programmer.

     My rector and church choir director are also subscribers to this

     I'm a librarian at a theological college of the University of London

     by the Jesuits. By now, of course, we are not solely a theological
     seminary; students of all  traditions or none study here.

     I found out about ANGLICAN fairly recently;  I always sign up to
     lists dealing with religion, church history, philosophy etc. to pass
     on to others here anything that might be interesting or relevant to
     studies. I'm always trying to get the faculty here to make greater
     use of computing, including the networks.

     I am Robert Bruce Mullin, and am Professor of Religion at North
     Carolina State University in Raleigh.  I am married with one child.

     My field of research is Religious History.  I have published four
     boks in the field, but am probably best known for my study of
     antebellum high church movement in America Episcopal Vision/American
     Reality: High Church Theology and Social Thought in Evangelical
     America.  I  am presently at work on a study of the idea of the
     miraculous in modern reigious thought.

     I am an active lay person in the Episcopal Church (which I entered
     while at college at William and Mary), and attend St. Timothy's
     Church in Raleigh.  I also serve on the Standing Commission on
     Ecumenical Relations of the National Episcopal Church, and
     occasionally get called upon to serve on other sub-committees.  I am
     also a member of the Guild of Scholars, an association of Episcopal
     academicians who meet annually at General Seminary. Finally I am one
     of the directors of the Historical Society of the Episcopal Church.

     If I had to describe myself theologically and liturgically I would 
be
     somewhat right of center and on the high side.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     Although I am originally from Michigan, I am currently residing in
     Tennessee, where I am attending Vanderbilt University. I am 37 years
     old, married, and have two beautiful and wild children, ages 6-1/2
     and 5. My wife and I met about 13 years ago, at the University of
     Minnesota, where we were both working on graduate degrees in English
     literature. She completed her PhD; I stopped with an MA when I began
     to realize I couldn't focus my peculiar range of interests
     sufficiently to do doctoral work in that field. When Paula had
     finished her in-residence requirements, we moved to the Chicago 
area,
     where I began at Seabury-Western seminary. I was ordained a priest 
in
     1987. After several years in parish work in Michigan, we've now come
     to Nashville where I've started toward a PhD in theology.

     My first appearance on this list was an invitation to correspond 
with
     folks about their "religious experiences," and that seems like a 
good
     way to introduce in this bio my particular interests and goals in my
     studies and in my ministry. I am fascinated by questions of 
religion,
     consciousness, imagination, the "really real," and the relations
     between them. I have always liked what Samuel Taylor Coleridge said
     about the "primary imagination": that it is "the prime agent of all
     human perception and the repetition in the finite mind of the 
eternal
     act of Creation in the infinite I AM." Imagination in this broad
     sense (meaning so much more than "fiction" or "daydreaming") is that
     process by which we assemble the raw data of our sense organs into a
     perceptual world -- and, if contemporary physics is right, more than
     just the data of our sense organs; some suggest that we are nodes in
     a quantum interference pattern that holographically encodes the 
whole
     of the universe. What that might mean for physics I don't know; for
     epistemologists, it suggests that "imagination" is that which 
unfolds
     the world from the energy-field substratum in which it is enfolded.
     We might literally be imagining the world into existence. And that,
     to follow Coleridge, is a kind of human participation in the 
creative
     act of God, our share in the life of the Logos (John 1:1-4), our 
part
     in the outplaying of Wisdom (Prov 8:30-31). Religion, again in its
     broadest meaning, is a way of training the imagination to 
participate
     more deeply in the divine creativity, to image more nearly in our 
own
     time and place what God is infinitely and eternally. Christian
     religion is that form of imaginal training that follows Jesus and 
his
     community as the model for true-imagining. And Christ-imaging (if
     that term is not too stretched) touches everything we do: our
     relationships, our morals, our social actions, our hopes, our loves,
     our psyches, our prayer, our worship. So for me the relevant kinds 
of
     religious questions are: how can we participate more deeply in the
     divine imagination? how can we open our conscious minds to more of
     the power and the passion of imaginal creativity? how do our 
imagings
     work on the world -- on ecology, society, interpersonality -- in 
ways
     both obvious and subtle? how can we contribute to the "finite
     repetition of the infinite I AM" so that the whole universe and 
every
     member of it enjoys its being more fully and more abundantly?

     Enough disquisition. This is, after all, supposed to be a SIMPLE
     biography, right? Religious epistemology aside, what I can share
     about myself is that I love to ponder things, I get a kick out of
     good science fiction that stretches my imagination about the 
how-ness
     of things, I was deeply influenced by reading Charles Williams in
     college, I think process theology has a good technical vocabulary 
for
     exploring the kinds of issues that drive me, I love to listen to
     music and try to SEE what it sounds like, preaching and celebrating
     the sacraments are two of the greatest joys of my life, the Internet
     is amazing, returning to academic life at 37 with two children is
     more of a challenge than it seemed at first, I'm not an
     issue-oriented person, I can ramble on forever if I'm not careful.

     Anybody still reading? I take great interest in being able to share
     thoughts with Anglicans from all over the world through this
     electronic forum, and I'm glad to be (virtually) here.

     I am a member of the Episocopal Parish of Ames, Iowa.  When we moved
     here there were two churches (St. David's and St. John's) with one
     vestry and one budget.  But due to sliding numbers in both churches
     and a decrease from 3 priests to 1, we are now worshipping only at
     St. John's by the Campus.  I am a lay euchristic minister,
     coordinator of the pastoral care committee and an EFM mentor.  I am
     on the faculty of Iowa State - teach and direct programs in dietetic
     education and do community nutrition research.  My husband is on the

     the youngest is a high school senior.  We were very active 
Methodists
     before being confirmed in the Diocese of South Dakota in 1979.  I am

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I joined the Episcopal church about fifteen years ago when, as a
     single parent of two sons, I realized that because of personal and
     physical circumstances (several moves within a three-year period),
     that I had not had my kids to church for some time.

     I lived at that time at Lake Tahoe, and the church that seemed to
     have the community I was looking for was also the church that 
spawned
     Malcolm Boyd, who I knew only through his writings.  Well, they
     immediately made us, (myself a former Methodist) feel welcome, and I
     felt that I had arrived *home*.

     In subsequent years, I attended Cursillo, served on the vestry, was
     also director of a community outreach program that provided
     everything from food, housing, counseling, and general assistance to
     people needs.  Those early years (for me) being in the Episcopal
     church brought the clear challenge to live the word of Christ in my
     entire life rather than in segments as I chose.

     Cursillo was probably the event that provided the impetus to begin 
to
     act out what I said I believed.  Seeing others that actually 
achieved
     it was enough inspiration for me to want to attempt it, too.  I fall
     very short of doing so but my committment has helped me get through
     some rough moments.

     I work as assistant to the director of the library/learning resource
     center at the local community college (Truckee Meadows C.C. for 
those
     of you who know Reno).  The staff and my boss, the director, are
     frequently at war with one another and I have found myself in the
     middle in more than one situation.  I take some solace in my one 
real
     friend on the staff, Harry, and the books.  (I'm a book junkie - 
it's
     a little like a druggie working in a pharmacy, but I am getting help
     :-))

     After getting my kids launched in college, (to go back to my earlier
     years at Tahoe and in the ECUSA), I went back to school, the Univ. 
of
     Nevada, Reno and found myself commuting up and down a narrow, often
     snow covered mountain (high!) road at night after classes and 
decided
     it was time to move to Reno. I moved here shortly after running into
     Pierre, an Episcopalian from Tahoe's west shore (I lived on the east
     shore) who had been recently divorced and he and I moved here
     together. That makes it sound as if it is a relationship of
     convenience.  It's actually been the most joyful and loving
     relationship I've ever been in. For those and other reasons, we have
     chosen not to marry but remain a committed if unconsecrated couple.
     (Our church family here, at St. Stephen's, has accepted us as such.)
     We've been together for over seven years now and both of us see life
     together as a given.

     Sorry to be so wordy.  This is not like me.  Even so, I fear that I
     have not really shared enough for you to really get to know me, but
     perhaps later posts will begin to give you a more rounded picture of
     me.  I have been accused of not being very good at sharing myself so
     I don't feel really adequate to do so honestly.  (Probably a result
     of NEVER having shared myself until well into adulthood.)

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I read the Anglican list on behalf of Professor Robinson Cavalcanti.

     Robinson Cavalcanti was born at June 21st, 1944. He is married and
     has a son and a daughter. He has received two undergraduate degrees 
-
     Social Sciences and Law - at Recife, Pernambuco. His graduate degree
     is in Political Sciences at IUPERJ - Rio de Janeiro. He is Professor
     of Political Sciences at UFPE (Federal University of Pernambuco) and
     was also at UFRPE (Federal Rural University of Pernambuco). For the
     last two years, he has also been the Director of the Center of
     Philosophy and Human Sciences at UFPE.

     Professor Cavalcanti is an Anglican Minister in the Episcopal Church
     of Brazil. He has taken a graduate degree in Theology in England and
     often participates in short courses and seminars, particularly in
     U.S.A. . He is founder and Reverend of a church here (in fact, a
     "mission") that still does not have its definitive site because its
     financial support is insufficient.

     He has founded a religious (evangelist) institution with political
     orientation, MCDC (Democratic Christian Movement of Center). He was 
a
     substitute delegate to the Lausanne Committee for Evangelization of
     the World and assessor (adviser) of Universitary Biblical Alliance 
of
     Brazil.

     Professor Cavalcanti is currently a member of several societies:

     - Educational and Cultural Academy of Pernambuco;
     - Latin-American Theological Society;
     - Theological Committee of the World-wide Evangelical Alliance: 
Unity
       Ethics & Society.

         He is author of 9 books (in PORTUGUESE):
     - "The Origins of `Coronelismo' " (`Coronelismo' is a social and
       political phenomenon in Brazil that has no direct translation into
       English; the closest word is "Colonelism" [sic].
     - "Christ in the Brazilian university".
     - "Christianity & Politics".
     - "The Church: Agency of historical transformation" (2 volumes).
     - "The Christian, this `boring' person".
     - "A Blessing named sex".

     And two other books on the relations between Religion and Sexuality,
     a subject which he researchs on. As political scientist, his 
research
     subjects are the relations between Religion and Politics, and
     international relations.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     Born 9 July 1936, Hillsville, VA; Husband:  Reza Ordoubadian (m.
     1957). Children:  2 daughters, 2 sons, 7 grandsons. Job:  Associate
     Professor, English.    Church:  St. Paul's Episcopal. Cursillo; EFM,
     Year 2; EFM Mentor Training, Session I.

     I was born into a Baptist family, went to Duke University, and spent
     my junior year at the University of Exeter where I first experienced
     the Anglican Church. I met my husband, a native Iranian, when I
     returned for my senior year at Duke. We married the next year and
     moved to Middle Tennessee where we lived one year in Nashville, four
     in Bell Buckle, and the rest in Murfreesboro. I joined the Episcopal
     Church in 1965 when a dear friend Franklin Ferguson was called  here
     as priest.

     The church, and St. Paul's in particular, has been the safe harbor 
of
     my life. Our grown children are consciously pursuing their spiritual
     journeys and in the process of training up their children in the
     faith, or at least to be aware of the spiritual dimensions of life.
     However they are doing it, I am much gratified by the results.  A 
few
     years ago my husband who was culturally a Moslem and intellectually
     an atheist, experienced a Pauline conversion so drastic that he was
     baptized and confirmed into the church. He attended Cursillo, became
     a lay reader, and has graduated from EFM.

     Looking toward retirement in two years, I am in the midst of several
     projects which will probably not come to fruition until I am no
     longer grading papers and  sitting in committee meetings. I am
     interested in fairy tales, mythology, Jung and Jungians, gender
     studies, and women's spirituality.

     I am convinced that Jesus is Lord, that He is alive and well in our
     midst, that the love of God is pouring down upon us at all times,
     that the power of the Holy Spirit is at work all about us, and that
     the world is in need of our witness and our love and, most of all,
     our prayers.

                               USA: Ohio (Cincinnati)
                               Biography last updated Apr 19

     I grew up in Alabama (born in '58) and attended the University of
     Alabama, Tuscaloosa.  I was active in my home church (United
     Methodist) and in an ecumenical campus ministry at UA.  In my junior
     year I joined a progressive Presbyterian church at the University,
     taught Sunday School, and occasionally was asked by the Pastor to
     fill in as guest preacher.

     I was considering going to seminary after I earned my B.A., and was
     offered a fellowship to Union Seminary in Virgina, but I had
     reservations about the traditional lifestyle of a Presbyterian
     pastor. I went to graduate school at Florida State University in
     educational admin./counseling and remained active in campus 
ministry.

     During my first job at the University of Texas, I began my wonderful
     coming out process as a Gay man.  Continuing my interest in 
Christian
     ministry, I also took a coursework at the Episcopal Theological
     Seminary of the Southwest.  (My late uncle was an Episcopal priest.)

     Almost ten years ago, I became Assistant Dean of the College of
     Business Administration at the University of Cincinnati, where I 
also
     teach management courses.  Additionally, I've also served on our
     ecumenical campus ministry board here.

     I've always wanted to serve as an ordained minister, so I began
     seeking out independent Gay & Lesbian clergy a couple of years ago 
so
     that I could find out how they became ordained.  I knew that the
     Episcopal Bishop of So. Ohio wasn't going to consider me as a
     postulant.  He seems to have turned down all openly Gay candidates.
     Likewise, the Presbyterian Church in the area won'y accept Gay
     candidates, although our wonderful Mt. Auburn Pres. Ch. is a warm 
and
     accepting congregation for Gays & Lesbians.

     God worked with me along the way and opened doors to me which I 
never
     would have thought possible:  One of the priests I contacted told me
     that his parish, Holy Trinity Community Church of Dallas was
     affiliated with the International Council of Community Churches (not
     to be confused with the MCC).  To make a long story short, the
     priest, Fr. Wright, sponsored me for ordination in the ICCC, the
     national Council agreed, and on June 20, 1993, I was ordained in a
     very warm service in Dallas in the presence of friends from
     Cincinnati and old friends from my days in Texas.

     Now I continue in my post as Assistant Dean, and also serve on the
     Social Concerns Comission of the ICCC, the AIDS Pastoral Care
     Committee here in Cincinnati, and am trying to form a liturgical Gay
     & Lesbian supportive congregation here in the greater Cincinnati
     area. Somewhere along the way, I hope to complete a D.Min. program.

     I'm a busy boy, a little burnt out on my administrative
     responsibilities, but ever hopeful of working with my Gay brothers
     here to establish a small community for worship and care.

                               Biography last updated Jan 12

     I am an Anglican Priest, Vicar of ChristChurch, Windhill, an `Inner
     City' parish of around 10,000 people on the outskirts of Bradford. I
     have been a Priest for 15 years - prior to that I was a mechanical
     and electrical Engineer.

     I am not easily classified in terms of `Churchmanship' (a term which
     I avoid if at all possible). I gave my life to Christ/became a
     Christian in 1968. I am ecumenical, and am an Anglican because it is
     a `broad church' and because it works rather than out of conviction!

     I have a wide interest in Voluntary Sector activity, and am involved
     in many Community and Voluntary Associations, mostly in Community
     Development.

     I advise Church and Voluntary Groups on Computers and Information
     Technology, and am co-Chair of the Bradford Diocesan Computer Users
     Group.

     I have been involved in computing for very many years, and have 
owned
     a wide variety of different machines over the last 18 years. I have
     been involved in Comms since the days when 300 baud was considered
     fast, but have only very recently negotiated Internet access.

     I am 47 years old, married (for twenty-one years, to Sylvia), with
     two late teenage children, both of whom are about to go to
     University.

                               Biography last updated Nov 27

     I'm 34, married, the mother of two small children, and living in
     Charlotte, North Carolina.  I'm a writer -- technical documentation
     for money, fiction for pleasure.

     I grew up in Richmond, Indiana, home of Earlham College, attending
     Society of Friends (Quaker) meetings.  I attended the Friends
     equivalent of confirmation classes, but didn't formally join the
     meeting.  I no longer remember why, but suspect that I panicked at
     the commitment.

     As an adult, I realized that, without my own conscious choice, I
     believed in Christianity.  I started looking for a church.  Although
     I admire the Friends, Quakerism isn't for me; I find the discipline
     necessary to concentrate during a silent Meeting eludes me;  I need 
a
     liturgy to help focus my attention.  Since I had attended Episcopal
     services with my in-laws and enjoyed them, the Episcopal church
     seemed a good fit.  I am presently taking Confirmation classes at 
St.
     Clare's, a small mission church in Charlotte.  [Thanks to all the
     ANGLICAN members who suggested that a liberal Anglo-catholic parish
     might be a good fit; I think I've found one, plainsong and all.]

                               Biography last updated Aug 23 1993

     I am a 39 year old Anglo-Quaker; I worship regularly at the local
     Anglican monastery and often at the Friends' Meeting around the
     corner. My background is all Anglo-Catholic (when I did graduate 
work
     at Oxford, I was on staff at Pusey House -- surely the high point of
     my A-C life), but I find the corporate silence of the Friends to be
     very powerful. I also worry a bit about becoming too committed to 
the
     rituals of A-Cism in a purely aesthetic (or even superstitious) way,
     but (I hasten to add, nervously eyeing escape routes) this is a
     problem I sense in me, not necessarily in A-Cism. The Quakers led me
     to a contemplative discipline, although I have found A-C and R-C
     writers to be my preferred guides.

     I was raised "high-church" Episcopal during a time (the 60s) and in 
a
     place (a relatively up-scale suburb of Chicago) where that phrase
     seemed to be synonymous with "stuffy and lifeless", especially to a
     boy who was 15 at the time of Woodstock.

     My adult faith was born at college, when I took a New Testament
     course from a fellow who had just arrived from studying with
     Kasemann. I found the resonances between intellectual love of the
     texts and a lifetime in the pews to be irresistible. Ended up a
     Religion and Music major, did graduate work in NT.

     I was accepted for ordination in the Diocese of Chicago, and
     graduated from the Episcopal Divinity School in 1978. Decided not to
     get ordained (also a long story).

     I stayed pretty much out of churches for awhile. After three years 
of
     worship in a seminary community, I found it very difficult to settle
     into a standard suburban Episcopal parish. (I'm afraid that may 
sound
     elitist and unpleasant, but daily Eucharist with people who are your
     friends, and with whom you spend the rest of the time in a largely
     theological setting, is a hard act to follow. I had not had the
     benefit of a crisis of faith to settle the issue of my relationship
     to the church, just a crisis of vocation.)

     Nine years later, I discovered the Quakers. Then rediscovered the
     monastery and, largely due to the lure of Barbara Harris' episcopal
     presence, the Cathedral.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     The Episcopal church in Clearfield, Pennsylvania, is not much bigger
     today than it was when I was born in 1946.  Our family had just 
moved
     to town, and Mom agreed to join Dad's church since her Lutherans 
were
     a much larger group than the eighty or so Episcopalians.  Through my
     childhood, we were active members of St. Andrew's, and I was a
     regular Sunday schooler and acolyte.

     Like many in the 60s, when I headed off for college, the church got
     left behind, and it was not until the first of my three children was
     born that I began to get interested again.  By this time, 1976, my
     wife, daughter and I lived in another small central Pennsylvania
     town, Holidaysburg, where the Episcopal church was just as much in
     need of members as the one in Clearfield.  We joined and were 
active.
     I became a vestryman and warden.  I was involved, but not on the
     spiritual level I would later discover.

     It was about 10 years ago, after the birth of my third child and
     second daughter, that I began to find those deeper levels of
     Christianity I'd been vaguely aware of but certainly not in close
     touch with.  Now we were members of the Church of the Redeemer in 
the
     Philadelphia suburb of Bryn Mawr.  My career was in flux, my 
marriage
     was breaking up and my spiritual life was not strong enough to pull
     me through.

     Not in a road to Damascus flash but very defiantly nonetheless, I
     discovered the power of true faith in Christ and reliance on God's
     grace.  Through the four year Education for Ministry program, I
     deepened my understanding of scripture, theology and my own belief.
     The marriage did not survive, but my career took an unexpected turn.
     After 15 years as a broadcast journalist, I now head Bell Atlantic's
     public relations group.  I remain active in church as a member of
     Redeemer's vestry, a Lay Eucharistic Minister and chalicist. But it
     is the enriched spirituality rather than these activities that
     defines my Episcopalianism and Christianity today.

     The real Bio - the journey

     [Quotes are from _A LOOK AT THE CELTIC CHRISTIAN TRADITION_ by 
Sister
     Cintra Pemberton OSH  from _saint_helena_, vol. 14, no. 1, March
     1993]

       <begin quote>
       Celtic spirituality had another characteristic, summed up in the
       Welsh word HIRAETH, which can only be loosely translated as 
"yearn-
       ing" or "longing".  Celtic Christians longed for all that led to
       God, longed for knowledge of God, longed for intimacy with God.
       They "confessed that they were strangers and foreigners on the
       earth. . .seeking a homeland" (Hebrews 15:14-15).
       <end quote>

     This passage evokes for me my state of mind in the summer of 1980.
     Back a decade previously, during my college years, I had acting on
     the "yearning" by hanging out first with the campus Newman group,
     then singing in the choir of an Episcopal church.  But I couldn't
     trust this sense of being drawn, so I let it go after graduating and
     getting married.

     I'm sure this doubt about the authenticity of my feelings came in
     part from my teen-aged experience of feeling like an odd-ball, one
     who just didn't fit in or belong, even being the object of 
unprovoked
     animosity because I was perceived as different.

     Sometime in the 70's I became aware of what was then called 'Gay
     Liberation'.  Interestingly enough, it was less through my having
     been 'political' during college and more from becoming very
     interested in the music of Benjamin Britten.  But my interest in his
     music and life made me pay attention to the issues that gay 
activists
     were raising.

     All of this came together to give me a metaphor for my own life.
     Even though sexuality didn't happen to be an issue for me, I
     nonetheless started hearing stories which strongly resonated with my
     own.

     So in 1980, with my husband away for 12 weeks at a summer theatre
     job, I was in particular need of support.  I came to St John the
     Evangelist.  I wasn't sure what I could trust about all this 'God
     stuff', but I could listen to other people talking about it both
     cogently and passionately.  And more to the point, people not only
     talked about a God who accepted those rejected by others, but they
     actually did it themselves - I was welcomed without being expected 
to
     justify my presence.

     Even if I couldn't explain what it was I wanted from church, I could
     start doing it, through participation in the choir and through being
     a part of the community's life together.

     What impressed me even more is that people not only talked about
     theology and their faith, but lived it.  I first noticed this in the
     commitment to real participatory worship in the liturgy.  Even 
though
     the ritual was complex and often mysterious, people were encouraged,
     expected and trained to take part fully - no 'audience' here!

     It wasn't particularly surprising to discover that one result of
     people's living out their faith was a desire to serve homeless 
people
     who would come to our door.  What I hadn't expected was that the
     parish was coming to be something of a haven for lesbian and gay
     people as well.  As time has gone one, this openness has become a
     major part of our collective self-identity for straight and gay
     alike.

       <begin quote>
       Individual experiences of God were highly respected.  Always the
       people were urged and encouraged to develop their own relationship
       with God....God's presence was at all times and in all places, in
       all actions and all events.
       <end quote>

     I had found a spiritual home and was baptized at St John's on the
     feast of All Saints in 1981.

     I don't recall in our parish history someone making a decision to be
     'politically correct'.  Instead we were given a gift - the grace to
     be a particular kind of community which, though imperfect and having
     conflicts, has begun to be a safe place for people not always
     welcomed in some other places, and therefor safe for everyone - a
     visible expres- sion of the love of God and hope for God's Reign.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I was born in 1949. I am a member of Christ Church in Los Altos,
     California. I'm a Ph.D. computer scientist whose day job is research
     in computer network systems (I'm the director of a small industrial
     research laboratory.) My career has been devoted to the use of
     technology to help communication; this means e-mail and laser
     printers and computer networks and telephone gizmos and the like. My
     house is on the Internet. I am an accomplished portrait 
photographer,
     a pretty good cook, a competent bicycle mechanic, and 40 pounds
     overweight.

     I have used Internet e-mail for 20 years and I understand it
     completely. If you have a question about e-mail or a problem with 
it,
     I can almost certainly help you. I maintain the ANGLICAN roster and
     register of biographies (the thing that you are now reading).

     My mother is a Congregationalist and my father is an atheist; as
     children we briefly went to a Presbyterian church, but my father 
felt
     (and still feels) that organized religion promotes and encourages
     violence and warfare, and we didn't attend church again as children.
     My father designs atomic weapons for a living, but he has no
     intention of seeing them ever being used.

     Thus I was baptized and confirmed at age 25 at Church of the 
Redeemer
     in Pittsburgh, PA. When I joined ANGLICAN I had no idea what an
     Anglo-Catholic was, but I now know that I am one.

     I see my place in the church to be working with children, though
     maybe when all of my children grow up I might try something else. I
     doubt it. I love to teach, and spent 10 years as a college professor
     but quit because I couldn't take the politics. I've taught Sunday
     school for many years (usually one of the younger grades) and never
     once have I gotten into a turf war with one of the other teachers. I
     help with the children's choir, I direct and run various children's
     pageants at the church, and I pride myself on knowing the name of
     every child in the parish who has been to church more than once or
     twice. (I can't even come close do doing this for the adults.)

     I wish I had the educational background and the time to read and
     understand important theological works like Veritatis Spendor, but I
     know that I can serve God equally well by being a good parent, and
     whenever I'm faced with the choice, I choose to spend time helping a
     second-grader with a class report on endangered species instead of
     reading an encyclical. I have four children, two of whom come from a
     remarriage.

     On the ANGLICAN list I try to hold to the position of being just a
     parishioner. This means that I am not clergy, not a chalice bearer,
     not a religious scholar, not educated in theology, and not given to
     being a philosopher. With respect to the church, I'm no different
     from a goatherd or a plumber or a day laborer; all of my fancy
     technical education doesn't count for a thing in the eyes of God. As
     such, I hide behind a rock during most theological arguments and 
pray
     for both sides. I haven't had much luck at getting anybody on the
     list to react to anything that I've posted to it; I think this is 
the
     same reaction that a plumber would get if he came to my office and
     tried to talk about computers.

     DOB 7 July 69, originally from Jackson, Miss. graduated St. Andrew's
     Episcopal School in 1987.

     Went to the University of Glasgow in Scotland for a year where the
     only really notable event was being confirmed into Anglican
     communion. Returned to U.S., transferred to the University of
     Mississippi (Ole Miss) (God, what a transfer!) where for two years
     was president of Episcopal Students Association. Was a philosophy
     major while at UM. Thought for years that I had *the call* but have
     put that to the side. Lots of reasons for that.

     Am presently in the process of moving to Memphis, Tenn. Have one dog
     named J.D. (yes, after the whiskey) who really IS the world's
     greatest dog. Oh, and the smartest dog. Current hobbies include
     wondering why I can't ever learn to play golf better than I do,
     wondering how anybody could ever like basketball when God has 
already
     given us baseball, and trying to figure out which of these two is
     larger: the national debt or my student loans.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     I am a Mechanical Engineer, working for the U.S. Navy testing and
     developing fire protection equipment protection and personnel
     protection equipment.  I'm married and we have four children, 
between
     23 and 14 years old.

     I was raised Roman Catholic. My parents were not serious about
     religion and by time I was on my own I had developed the idea that
     the longer I stayed away from organized religion, the closer I would
     be to God. (This was the 60's.) I'd read the Bible and lots of
     philosophical books, but would stay away from those church places.

     My wife is Episcopalian, and I attended church with her on Christmas
     and Easter (when I had to.) About 8-9 years ago, a strange thing
     happened.  I felt the need for a more active religious life. I
     started going to church with my wife, and eventually was received
     into the Episcopal Church.

     Suddenly, my life had changed. I found that there were others who
     REALLY cared about God and His message to us. I got more and more
     involved.  I went to Cursillo last year (MD48). WOW! There's more to
     this religion stuff than I ever thought. God's love is everywhere!

     What am I doing now? A Member of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church (Fr
     Fred Ramsay); I counsel the Boy and Girl Scouts for the God and
     Country award; I'm Junior Warden; recently I helped start a men's
     study group; and I signed up with the Bible Study Fellowship.  And
     I'm doing the funny stuff the Cursillo community is famous for.

     I'm among the older part of the group, at 49. I prefer to lurk 
rather
     than post. I don't pretend to know anymore more about anything than
     the rest of the group, but maybe I can occasionally add a different
     perspective to the discussions.

                               Biography last updated Apr 19

     Born 1/1/54, baptized RC within a month, but went to the Trinity
     Memorial Episcopal in Binghamton NY with my mother (Dad listened to
     the sermons of Frs. Driver and Putter). I didn't drop out of church
     in high school (and I even joined the choir) because I had a crush 
on
     one of the altos ;-) I didn't go to church much in college or grad
     school (sound familiar?), but one evening in summer 1982, I was up a
     tree on a golf course; a friend of mine told me about her faith.
     (Wow. Full circle - I just realized it now) I felt an emptiness
     inside that signalled to me that it was time to find a church. I 
went
     to St John's Ithaca thinking I would be shopping for a church, but
     I've stayed there ever since; I never looked at another one. I'm 
sure
     that that is where God wants me to be (I've even been tested on
     this).

     I'm in the choir (a tenor), bell choir (Bach, Byrd, Victoria and
     Tallis rule!), I'm a lay eucharistic minister (LEM), and LEM to the
     ill and infirm, and I'm currently on the vestry (every now and then
     an innocent person gets elected to the vestry ;-))

     Tastes (other than musical): Rite II (mild preference), 
Ecclesiastes,
     the dry bones passage from Ezekiel, the Gospel of John, Lenten and
     Advent music, I'm probably more high church than low...

     Other stats: married since 9/12/92 (the best day of my life - I've
     never had more fun than I had that entire day), no children (yet),
     6'4" 205lb. I think that about covers it.

David Shepherd                (des at inmos.co.uk)
                               England: Bristol
                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     Briefly, I was brought up in a basically Christian environment in a
     small village in Westmorland (north England) where for my family
     attending and helping out at Church was normal. While at school and
     university I was influenced by the work of Scripture Union which 
gave
     me a good grounding in "evangelical" Christianity (in case it means
     anything to anyone, it was the "Iwerne Minster" mob from SU!).

     When I moved to Bristol after university I started to attend
     Pip'n'Jay Church (SS Philip and Jacob if you wish to be official
     about it) mainly on the basis that it seemed very different to the
     Church that I attended in Oxford (St Ebbe's) as it was influenced by
     the "charismatic" movement. I think I thought that going there for a
     bit would do be good and then I'd find somewhere closer to what I 
was
     used to! However, I've stayed there now for over 8 years and am on 
so
     many rotas etc that I'm probably trapped for ever! Life for me in
     Pip`n`Jay is currently quite "interesting" as I'm one of the small
     minority in the Church not strongly opposed to ordination of women
      ... however, the encouraging thing is that we all see this as being
     a side issue to what the Church is really meant to be doing and we
     all get on with it without any rifts/schisms etc.

     Currently I'm on Bristol Diocesan Synod (and hence by the CofE rules
     of downwards closure on Deanery Synod and PCC), and I'm also
     currently working towards becoming a Lay Reader - I'm nearing the 
end
     of the first two years of the course and have been approved by the
     PCC to apply for the final year of actual Reader's training.

William Sier                  (sherlock at ksuvm.bitnet)
                               USA: Kansas (Manhattan)
                               Biography last updated Jan 12

     I was born to a first generation Sicilian Catholic mother and a
     "lackadasical-at-best-former-Lutheran-converted-to-Catholicism-
     because-that-was-the-way-it-was-done-then" father. So, naturally, I
     went to Catholic Schools for twelve years. I was the fourth of five
     boys, and I'm still trying to figure out what that placement means 
in
     the birth-order school of thought. To me, it meant "quasi-rebel"--
     not quite a black sheep, more of a dusky grey.  I was an altar boy,
     right at the end of the Latin rite (thankfully!). I still took Latin
     in high school, and have not regretted it a bit. Just don't ask me 
to
     translate real fast.  However, much to my mother's chagrin, I 
refused
     to join any of the Catholic Youth organizations, because even at an
     early age, I was having my doubts.

     First came the idea that the pope was infallible--just can't buy
     that. Then came the Church History class we had to take from an
     Italian Presbyterian--filled me with a great deal of cynicism , but
     gave me my first view of "the-church-no-one-could-spell". Finally,
     the very notion that men who are prevented from marrying can TEACH a
     class in MARRIAGE to a group of high school seniors!

     But the ultimate blow came when Mary and I got married. She was a
     Presbyterian, and wanted to get married in her home church. Didn't
     bother me-- I'd'a just as soon run down to the courthouse and done 
it
     the quick way. (I have come since to learn that the groom is merely
     the bride's date at a wedding-- it's the bride's show!)  However, I
     went to talk to some young priest at MY home parish, and he assured
     me all it took was a letter from the Bishop, and he would see to it.
     So married we got, and Mary began taking lessons in Catholicism. She
     was () this close to baptism, when the priest at the Army chapel we
     were attending said we would have to be remarried, because there was
     no priest present at our wedding.  Here endeth the association with
     Rome.

     We went without for about two years. But when Mary got pregnant, we
     wanted our kids raised in a church. So after Andy was born, we went
     to the nearest chapel to us on Ft. Sam Houston, where a Methodist
     chaplain recommended the Episcopal church as a fair compromise
     between out respective religions.

     So off we went to St. David's in Terrell Hills, a bedroom community
     of San Antonio, and ALSO the nearest Episcopal church. We felt at
     home from the very start. So both boys were baptized, I was 
accepted,
     Mary was confirmed, and we were just getting started with really
     getting into the church, when the Army had other plans.

     We went to Berlin for three years, where we had the good fortune to
     be a congregation so small, if you didn't do it, it didn't get done.
     We were also lucky in being in the Episcopal church when Charlie
     Burgreen was Bishop of the Armed Forces. If I ever meet anyone again
     as special as Bishop Charlie, I will consider myself very lucky,
     indeed.  It was also interesting, because there was no Episcopal
     chaplain, so we had British Forces chaplains come down voluntarily 
to
     do our Eucharist. We had one from the Church of Scotland, one from
     the Church of Wales, and one from the Church of England while we 
were
     there. It was very interesting.

     Coming from Berlin to Kansas was quite a shock. We came to St. 
Paul's
     in Manhattan right at the very end of a very divisive feud involving
     a former rector, but we toughed it out.

     Now, I'm out of the Army (but not retired), working at Farrell
     Library at Kansas State University. I just finished (WHEW!) my
     three-year tour of duty on the Vestry (with the scars to show for
     it!), and last year attended my first Cursillo. Mary is on Altar
     Guild I also sing in the choir (I am 1/3 of the tenor section, on a
     good Sunday), and am a Lector.

     We both have taught Sunday school, or co-chaired Summer Bible 
School.
     Both boys are active in the church: Andy, 14, decided acolyting
     wasn't "cool", but has remained active in the Episcopal Youth.
     Matthew will be 13 sooner than we like to admit. He has also
     abandoned acolyting, but attends Jr. High Sunday School when he's
     awake.

                               Biography last updated Jan 12

     I am a new member of the Anglican Network, and a Lutheran
     fellow-traveler. By background is Southern Baptist, but I waslured
     away from that world at the age of 19 by an Anglo-Catholic Solemn
     High Mass.  I am at home in almost any setting in which liturgy is
     the preferred response to our spiritual dimension, in which our
     spiritual dimension is given precedence over our other dimensions,
     and in which my own tendency toward grandiosity is deflated with 
good
     humor and Christian affection. I presently find that community as a
     member of an ELCA congregation, but have sojourned in various
     Anglican quarters from time to time.

     My vocation is Professor of History at Northeastern Illinois
     University, where I teach American Social and Intellectual History.
     Most of my publications have dealt with the ironic intersections of
     religion and American public life.  I fancy myself a novelist, and
     have a readership of four people for the five manuscripts I've not
     yet had the courage to send to an agent or publisher.  One of the
     wanna-be novels is about life in an American Anglican Parish.  If
     anyone has a need to criticize such a piece of work, I could 
probably
     use it.

     My significant other is a former RC nun.  We are both 53 and amazed
     to have made it to this age.  Between us, we have three cats who 
keep
     us sane and amused.

                               Biography last updated Jan 10

     I was raised "cradle" Episcopalian (All Saints, Austin, TX) -- left
     "organized religion" when I went away to college (all of 3 blocks to
     the Univ. of TX!) -- but not totally -- came to Wash DC  in 1974 for
     graduate school (MLS); "discovered" the yet-unfinished Washington
     Cathedral; although "unchurched" would stray into that neo-Gothic
     structure for solace and peace. I used the change to the "new" 
prayer
     book as one of my many excuses not to return to the Episcopal fold.
     Also was totally turned off about "organized relgion" (ie, 
parishes),
     so folded my arms and stayed away.

     About 8 years ago, I  went to a dinner party where both my
     friend/hostess and a guest (an Anglican priest) attended St. Alban's
     (almost literally "in the shadow" of the Cathedral). I was so
     impressed with their discussion that I went the very next day -- for
     a long time telling both of them that I wanted _nothing_ to do
     "officially" with the parish--that I would help out but not "get
     involved".  Last May, the good parishioners elected me as a Diocesan
     delegate. I am still wondering what happened; how did a stronglu
     professed "non-joiner" get herself into such a position? All I can
     say is that, yes, God does work miracles.

     St. Alban's is my "family" -- it is an accepting, large, "broad"
     parish, which allows the freedom of someone who questions to be
     nurtured and to grow. I am still very guarded about "organized
     religion" -- almost an oxymoron when applied to Anglicans, 
especially
     validated from my "lurking" experience on this list.

     I came "back into the fold" still very unhappy about the "new" BCP 
--
     but have now come to appreciate Rite II -- esp. Euch Prayer B. I
     still, however, pull out my Baptismal copy of the 1928 BCP from time
     to time. but have learned to be very wary of nostalgia and sentiment
     masquerading as "dogma" (or what passes for same in the
     Anglican/Episcopal Communion).

     I believe very strongly in inclusive Christianity -- that as long as
     people walk in love and love Jesus Christ and accept Him as their
     Savior then "all shall be well" (as Julian so marvelously phrases
     it). Beyond that, who knows. I also believe that Jesus was so
     incredibly radical -- not only for His time but for all time -- that
     to even _comprehend_ following Him to the degree that He demands is
     so humbling as to be truely breathtaking. And almost impossible
     (speaking only for myself).

     Enough. In "real" life, I am a librarian, toiling away valiantly in
     US government service. My great "secular" love is Great Britain --
     not the usual American "let's pretend we're landed gentry"
     Anglophiles, but a deep spirtual love of Britain -- to walk along 
the
     country paths, to sit in churchyards, or in the ancient churches
     themselves, rejuvenates my spirit (helped sometimes by the
     contemplation from a pub garden!).  In fact, I wonder how many other
     Episcopalians/Anglicans feel the same -- I know several here in Wash
     DC who have become Episcopalians in part because they love England!!
     Anyone care to comment on this -- I think it's an interesting clue 
to
     the nature of Anglicans.

Morag Smith                   (mksmith at students.wisc.edu)

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     Geographically speaking I started life in Texas, was mostly raised 
in
     Ohio, was in South Carolina during my high school years, returned to
     Ohio for college (Ohio University), and moved to Madison, Wisconsin
     for grad school almost two years ago.

     'Cradle Episcopalian' applies to me as Dad especially has been an
     active member of the Church since he was in college.  Until college 
I
     was very active - acolyte, choir, youth group, etc. but my ties with
     church loosened significantly as college took up more of my time and
     there wasn't the routine of going to church every week coupled with 
a
     priest I didn't really care for at the local parish.  Here in 
Madison
     I've been slowly rediscovering church as a community - St. Francis
     House is the student Episcopal center and is about as low church as
     it can possibly be (the supplimental BCP is the primary source for
     our services) which isn't quite to my taste, but is closer to being 
a
     family than any other church I have attended.

     Anyway, my faith isn't as clear as it was when I was younger - as a
     physics grad student it's hard balance the objectivity required in
     the lab every day with the subjectivity that is faith.  But I 
suppose
     it wouldn't be as interesting if I knew the answers.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     I was born and raised here in Ottawa, ON Canada.  I was raised in 
the
     Roman Catholic Church and had always found comfort and meaning in my
     religious and spiritual activity.  As I grew into adulthood, it
     became apparent to me that my Church was no longer the place to 
be...
     For a number of reasons, it became obvious to me that Catholicism 
and
     I could not agree on a number of issues which I consider crucial.  
So
     I left the Rc Church, though my need for things religious and
     spiritual did not subside.  I experimented with neo-paganism and new
     age (as it seems did a few others here on ANGLICAN), and though I
     find the experience to be credible, it became more and more obvious
     that this was not the place for me.  What *was* becoming obvious was
     the fact that I was being drawn home to Christianity, though not to
     its former manifestation in my life.  Over a long period of
     discernment as I stood between the New-age and Christianity, the
     Anglican Church presented itself as the place to be.  Each time, I
     rejected the idea, thought it hogwash, but a much louder message 
came
     back pointing me in this direction...  so I looked more and more 
into
     the Anglican Church and see that indeed it is the place to be.

     I have a B.A. and a M.A. in Religion from Carleton University, and
     have been admitted into the B.Th program at St. Paul University (a
     local RC theological institute which offers a program through the
     Anglican Diocese of Ottawa for theological training).  I hope one 
day
     to be a priest in my new Church.

     I am married and have one child.  As for work, my main income has
     been from doing odd contract term-type positions.  I enjoy films,
     reading and writing (most stuff like plays and screenplays),
     gardening (Lord, let Spring actually arrive!), cooking and
     photography.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     1.  I grew up Southern Baptist and am the granddaughter of a 
Southern
     Baptist minister.  I became disenchanted with all of the "you
     can't's" and so began my quest for the denomination that would meet
     my needs and where I might be able to offer my talents.

     2.  I was confirmed an Episcopalian in 1980 at St. Mary's in
     Dyersburg, TN.  I was heavily influenced by such authors as C. S.
     Lewis, Madeleine L'Engle, Thomas Howard, Charles Williams, and G. K.
     Chesterton in my understanding of a _thinking_ and believing
     Christianity.  Since my confirmation, I have taught Church School,
     served on the Vestry (x2), ECW, and various other committees.  I am
     Senior Warden this year.

     3.  I married my husband, Joe, in 1981.  Joe was a non-practicing
     R.C. He was received in the Episcopal Church in 1992.

     4.  We have three children, 1 son (10 yrs.) and 2 daughters (8 
yrs.).
     (Yes, they are twins.)  If anyone wants to know about time and
     raising three children 22 months apart, I quite honestly don't have
     much memory of those early years.  It's still very busy, but not
     quite in the same way.

     5.  Professionally, I'm the Dean of the Learning Resources Center at
     Dyersburg State Community College (read that head librarian) in
     Tennessee.  I have been in this position for fifteen years with five
     different titles.  But as you well know, it's more than books.  It's
     AV, satellite down-link, video production, computers, etc.  I'm one
     of those people who truly loves her profession and the things she
     does.

     6.  By the way, I'm an ESTJ.

                               Biography last updated Apr 19

     I currently attend St. Mary's College in Minnesota, and I reside in
     LaGrange, Illinois on breaks.  While in Winona, I attend St. Paul's
     Episcopal (Father Tom Winkler) and when in LaGrange I attend 
Emmanuel
     Episcopal (Father David Weaver IV), while my parents attend St.
     Paul's in Riverside, IL (Father Fraser?), which is two suburbs over.

     I have lived all over the country (GA, AL, OK, IL, MN, TN, Winnipeg,
     Canada) and find that it has helped me learn to accept almost
     anything openly, and I find it hard to accept any argument for
     prejudice, exclusion, or closed mindedness.

     My biggest passions are the death penalty, the environment, racism,
     the philosophy of religion, tennis, and joining every club and
     activity that is possible for one human being.  I suppose my credo 
is
     involvement, although you wouldn't know it by my participation on
     this list would you because lately I have no- mailed it for a while
     due to breaks and the lack of patience to sort through volume.

     I was an active member of Happening in Chicago and will always
     remember those retreats as being the best time of my life 
spiritually
     and socially.  Right now I'm having a hard time dealing with the 
idea
     of a God, but I suppose that's a natural tendency for college kids
     like myself.  It's tough having to deal with that fact sometimes and
     occasionally I feel burned out from questioning.  The scariest thing
     for a human being to experience is the idea that the world is random
     and chaotic in everyday life and I'm starting to believe that as we
     sort logically and scientifically through the randomness, God is
     becoming less believable.  Probably not true, but unless I sort
     through it all myself and wade through the problems head-on, this
     will never get solved properly.

     My name is Susan Urbach and I live in Oklahoma City. I'm Director of
     the Small Business Development Center for one of the local
     universities.  I'm a single person, and share my old house I'm
     rennovating with my cats. I am new to the Episcopal Church, just
     having past my first year anniversary.  I am also a trained 
musician,
     and among other musical activities had spent 16 years as a church
     choir director/cantor in several churches, but spent most of my time
     at an Air Force Base Chapel with both Protestant (ranging from ends
     of the spectrum) and Catholic parishes, and then ultimately in a
     local Catholic parish.  As a result, I have an extremely varied
     experience, with both an appreciation for other's styles as well as 
a
     recognition of my own preferences.  After experiencing severe
     burnout, I decided it was time to reorganize on a spiritual as well
     as musical basis. Thus my journey to the Episcopal Church, looking
     for church home for the first time as an adult, that was not also
     combined with work.

Valerie Van Osdel             (vanosdel at u.washington.edu)
                               USA: Washington (Seattle)
                               Biography last updated Apr 16

     Religiously speaking, I was brought up a "generic" Protestant.  My
     father was career Army and my mid-western parents were
     Presbyterian/Congregationalist.  I was always fascinated by various
     faiths and spent time attending a variety of denominations as well 
an
     occasional Roman Catholic or Orthodox mass, Jewish shul and even a 
bat
     mitzvah of a friend's sister when I was in junior high.

     In college I majored in art and became very interested in eastern
     religions.  One of the limitations I had experienced as a Protestant
     was the focus on the intellect at the expense of the imagination and
     mystery, to say nothing of grace.  I'm sure my family's involvement
     with medicine and computers, rather than anything artistic was part 
of
     it; even Grandma was a Latin and math teacher.

     So, after a sojourn with Buddhism, and finding there really wasn't
     much place for a caucasian female there, I tried going to the
     Episcopal Church with my sister-in-law.  I had a alot of trouble 
with
     the "ritual", but having spent a quarter studying in France, and
     having a strong art history background, there was a great draw to 
the
     history and the continuity.  My family felt it was "one step from
     Rome", but that is where things "worked" for me. I was confirmed
     Easter Eve 1978 at St. Mark's Cathedral, here in Seattle.  I really
     feel I have "come home" in joining the Anglican tradition.

     I spent 15 years at St. Mark's, involved in most every aspect of the
     parish and cathedral and almost two years ago I transferred my
     membership to Trinity Parish, also in Seattle.  I found I had become
     more Catholic in my faith (love the liturgy now!), rather orthodox,
     and also wanted to work more directly with my spiritual director who
     is the rector of Trinity. At Trinity I am in the choir, am a chalice
     bearer, a lay reader, am on the Adult Education Committee, am on the
     vestry and recently took on the job of Stewardship chair. An
     additional (strong) interest I have is with the Church (and other
     faiths) in the Middle East.  I have been very active in local Middle
     Eastern work, religious and political and am a member of St. Mark's
     Palestinian Concern Group as well as a charter member of the
     Jewish/Christian Task Force of the local Church Council.

     I recently rejoined the Diocesan Ecumenical/Interfaith Committee,
     having also spent six years on the board of the local Church Council
     as our bishop's representative. I completed our diocesan school of
     theology's "Foundations of Ministry" program and continue to take
     classes there, as I have the time. In January I took the big step of
     beginning the process to ordination, though I had been contemplating
     it for the past ten years.

     In spite of my degrees and work in fine arts, I make my living 
working
     as a documentation librarian/computer services consultant for MCIS
     (Medical Centers Information Systems), the computer support 
department
     for the UW and Harborview Medical Centers through the University of
     Washington.  It's design of a sort, but mostly it pays the bills and
     allows me to spend time at Trinity and with my other interests.

     I was delighted to find the Anglican list and be a part of it and 
now
     have to learn to discipline myself a bit more regarding not spending
     too much time on the internet and getting the work done they pay me 
to
     do.  I look forward to "meeting" more of the other Anglicans.

                               Biography last updated Apr 20

     I am a cradle Episcopalian.  Throughout High School I was very
     involved with Western Michigan's Youth Department.  The Department 
is
     very large and provides activities for many groups of people many
     times a year.  I was Rector at Happening one year, and I'm still
     giving a lot of support to that program.  I went to Province Events
     for several years (all for which I was eligible), and then I went to
     Montana for EYE in 1990.

     My home parish in Allegan is very small.  We just hired a new rector
     this past year and he seems to be doing a lot of new and innovative
     things. (Since I'm 100 miles from home, I don't get to experience
     much of it).  I was fortunate to have the experiences of visiting
     different churches, know different priests, and being on personal
     terms with the Bishop.  (For a long time, I couldn't figure out what
     why everyone thought it was so special for him to visit in Allegan.
     Everyone would be excited, and I'd just respond, so, I just saw him
     two weeks ago!)  But I am very grateful for this experience and I
     realize what a great impact it has had in my life.

     I attend Michigan State and I'm in the Education Department minoring
     in Earth Science and English.  I'm involved with the Episcopal
     Ministries at MSU, and I am now working for the chaplain.  This is
     nice because now my work does not conflict with the activities!  :)
     I'm attending Vocare in Michigan in November.  I still attend
     Province, and will be going to a planning meeting for this year's
     soon.  Hopefully I'll be able to attend the next National Gathering,
     also.

     I attended Vocare #7 in the Diocese of Michigan.  It was a great
     experience, and gave me the energy and encouragement to know that I
     needed to do more.  I staffed at the Vocare #3 in the Diocese of
     Chicago.  That was a wonderful experience.  I had been involved in
     the politics of Western Michigan for so long that I could not get 
out
     and have a weekend that was not filled with them.

     Chicago was exactly what I needed at the time.  It let me get away 
to
     a place where I didn't know anyone, where I didn't have any
     connections, where I could be myself, and where I could do my job 
and
     not worry about other people or what they were supposed to be doing.
     Getting into a background postition and out of the leadership was 
the
     key.  It was a time where I could serve in my position and do it 
well
     while examining my life.

     There I realized that some of the things in my life were out of
     order.  My relationship with my boyfriend was not working out and
     because he is not religious and had no intention of becoming
     religious, I knew that things would not work out.

     I realized that I enjoyed youth ministry too much to give up
     regarless of what they adults in Western Michigan were saying and
     doing to discourage me from coming back.  I am now looking into 
youth
     ministry as a profession.

     The Young Adult Spring Event was held in Potosi, MO and was a great
     success.  Unfortunately, I was not able to serve on the planning
     committee, but will try to work it in next year.
