Southern Cross Diocese Expected to Reach 12 Churches
The conservative Anglican Diocese of the Southern Cross in Australia is expanding, with new congregations joining and the Anglican Church of the Torres Strait expected to become its twelfth member church. In Rhode Island, the Diocese of Providence’s SPRED ministry marked 35 years of sharing the Gospel with people with cognitive and developmental disabilities, while Dominican friars led parish talks on faith and the meaning of life. A letter about St. Peter’s Church in Washington, D.C., clarified that African American parishioners were historically required to sit in segregated areas, a painful part of the parish’s history that it plans to address through a Liturgy of Atonement.
