    Hello to all, and thank you for your hospitality. I look forward to reading and learning more about the issues that are of current to concern in the Anglican Communion..

    I am particularly interested in icons and iconography, and their place in worship and liturgy, and what an Anglican approach to this might offer..

    Sincerely,
    Anthony
    xXx

    Thank you friends for your hospitality.. Now back from a little break. Looking forward to a bit of interaction - I'm sure I can learn lots from you, I'm not so seasoned as I sometimes like to think!

    Let us be blessed xXx

    Anthony, welcome. I had a period of inquiry with the Copts. I love them dearly but determined that the cultural gap was a bridge too far. I wish to make a better relationship with my local Coptic community though. . .

    I've always thought oriental orthodox and Copts to be different churches?
