As an Evangelical in AMiA, I can attest that a sizeable number of the Reformed Catholic presbyters do not use (or like) the title 'Father.' <BR/>Futher, many of the largest and newest AMiA plants are using even less liturgy, and certainly not using titles such as "Rev'd" let alone "Father."<BR/>A growing number of the younger pastors(20's and 30's)are using non-ECUSA liturgy, and passing around links to English and Aussie Evangelical websites and resources. (Since none of us has ever seen a true Evangelical parish in ECUSA, we try to sharpen each other. A recent mailing said "Friends, I just wanted to pass along a few resources on the English Reformation posted by Church Society. I'm thinking about the Homilies in particular since most Anglican clergy (myself included) are fairly ignorant of this resource. <BR/>http://www.churchsociety.org/ordering/tentmaker.htm )<BR/><BR/>As ministers of the Gospel under the oversight of Rwanda, we discuss how to rightly apply the theology of the 1662 Prayer Book (Rwanda's) to issues like communion, the lectionary, etc. We are discovering a treasure trove in the attic that our parents seem sadly ignorant of.<BR/><BR/>May the LORD revive the Gospel fire that burned so bright amongst our forefathers,<BR/><BR/>For His glory!<BR/><BR/>Clark M.
