A virtual Collyridian church

St. Lydia's Mission is being inaugurated on Sunday, August 3, to respond to the growing interest in the Collyridian Britannic Episcopal Church. The mission, functioning as an all-virtual, all-ladies proto-parish, will allow those who have been unable to become part of the CBEC community (the canons of the CBEC allows only bishops and abbots/abbesses as its members; non-clergy persons had to join a parish or a mission).

While St. Lydia's is open to ladies only at the moment, there is a general-audience discussion list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/philomarianites, which may or may not eventually turn into another virtual congregation. The Philomarianites list is run by Markus Moessner, a candidate for transitional diaconate in the Episcopate of St. Brigid.
