[edit] Litany of St. James

Did you mean Litany of St. James or LITURGY of St. James? --Midnite Critic 05:00, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Uhm, yeah. Hey, they both start with "L" don't they? Reverend Mommy 06:15, 11 March 2007 (UTC)candlemb

You're very welcome. I too have an interest in early liturgies. --Midnite Critic 14:14, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Liturgy Geek?

Okay, having been raised by a father whose primary theological focus was the conservative Wesleyanism of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (think early Church of the Nazarene) and now, myself being a priest in an independent Syriac Orthodox Church (which, BTW, ordains women), I have to like a UM minister who describes herself as a "liturgy geek". I think it is a wonderful thing that more and more Methodists and other Wesleyans are rediscovering Wesley's Anglo-Catholicism, something of which my father was completely unaware. In any event, I want to make two (additional) comments: first, while again I like your outline for the "Christian liturgy" article, any such outline needs to include more about the various Eastern Rites, including the Byzantine, Syriac, Coptic, Armenian, and Assyrian/Chaldean, their interrelationship, and their relationship to the "Jerusalem Rite" as discussed by Cyril of Jerusalem as well as the (long, long, long) anaphora found in the "Apostolic Constitutions". Second, if you have not already done so, attend the Paschal/Easter liturgy at a (Byzantine Rite) Orthodox Church, preferably one in which English is the primary language. You will never forget it! And, since it starts around midnight of Holy Saturday, it shouldn't interfere with your pastoral duties. One last anecdote: some years ago, I attended a Coptic liturgy. I got started late, and en route, got lost. The liturgy started at 9:30 AM; I showed up around 11. The priest was preparing to read the gospel. --Midnite Critic 15:24, 14 March 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Hello

I just noticed on your user page, the link for "Anaphora" Goes to Anaphora (rhetoric) instead of Anaphora (liturgy). I thought you might want to fix it, but I didn't want to mess around on your user page uninvited.

[edit] Methodism Work Group

Hi, I'd like to invite you to join the Methodism Work Group, a subproject of wikiproject: Christianity. We're just starting, so we'd like to have as many people who are familiar with the subject as possible. If you know any Methobloggers who are also Wikipedians, please invite them! We want Wikipedia to have accurate and extensive information about Methodism. Wsanders (talk) 23:31, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Request for help with Antiochian Catholic Church in America article

I realize this article does not fall within your primary purview, but I would appreciate your help in protecting it from edits which are, at best, POV, and at worst, defamatory and/or vandalism, emanating from a suspended Deacon-Monk of this Church, of which, in the interests of full disclosure, I am a priest. Thanks in advance for your help in this matter, and if you have comments, questions, or concerns, please contact me via my talk page. --Midnite Critic (talk) 08:12, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
