Last night the ARDF representatives were invited to dinner at the home of Archbishop Robert Duncan, the now-retired Primate of the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA). ACNA formed following the decision of the Episcopal Church to consecrate an active homosexual bishop in 2003 and the ongoing determination of Episcopalians to follow a strong theologically liberal agenda. It was formally created in April 2009.
The Archbishop's home is on a beautiful piece of land near Donegal Lake just out of LaTrobe Pennsylvania

A small gathering in the Archbishops front yard on a pleasant summer evening (once the torrential rain stopped!)

Today I attended the opening day of the ACNA National Assembly, held at St Vincent's College, La Trobe, a college and Roman Catholic seminary.
ACNA is made up of both High and Low church parishes so the opening communion service in the college Basilica was very formal with sung liturgy.
The keynote speaker was Eric Metaxas, author of Biographies of Bonhoeffer and Wilberforce as well as being a writer for VeggieTales!
