The Episcopal New Yorker Archives

Vol. 86 No.1: Spring
The Spring 2010 Episcopal New Yorker has "mission as part of congregational life" as its theme. More by chance than by judgment, both of the main features in the issue touch on this -- the cover story about Haitians in New York in the aftermath of January's earthquake, and a report on the visit of the Archbishop of Canterbury to St. Ann's in the Bronx and a feeding program on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

It also includes an interview with the Archbishop of Wales on the occasion of his delivery of the Hobart Lecture, a personal and highly moving account of her spiritual journey  when diagnosed and treated for breast cancer by the Rev. Rhonda Rubinson, and a contrarian view of the role that government should play in improving the lot of the poor, by a parishioner of St. Augustine's in Croton. 
Vol. 85 No.3: September/October 2009
The September/October issue looks back to General Convention and forward to November's diocesan convention. The lead story is the draft report of the Special Committee on Diocesan Budget Process and Assessment, and its recommendations for changes in the assessment and in the adjustment process.

Kendall with a two-page profile complete with photos. And Gene Robinson's book In the Eye of the Storm is reviewed in Views and Reviews.
