Gay issues drive U.S., Canadian churches from Anglican council
Last Updated Fri, 25 Feb 2005 16:29:37 EST CBC News LONDON - The U.S. Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church of Canada will withdraw from a key body of the worldwide Anglican Communion at the request of conservative church leaders who condemned their stands on homosexual issues. Bishop Gene Robinson, the bishop of New Hampshire, lives openly with a male partner. (File photo) The suspension from the Anglican Consultative Council was said to be temporary. However, it's the first time the communion has split formally over the election of a gay bishop in the United States and the blessing of same-sex unions in both countries. The leaders of the communion, which is made up of 38 national churches and 77 million members, issued a statement Thursday calls on the two churches to voluntarily withdraw until 2008.

Welcome to the Church of Scientology of Kitchener, the center for the Scientology religion in Southwestern Ontario.
Scientology Founder, L. Ron Hubbard, stated: Do you ever get fed up with the scandal, death and destruction that dominates the news? Do you wish you could DO something about it? Something that would really HELP? When Scientologist Lorraine Baritz of Boston was called to the hospital by friends whose 13-year-old son was in a coma and on life-support four days after a severe motorcycle accident, she knew exactly what she had to do to help. News of the recovery traveled through the hospital, reaching others standing vigil by their own children. A couple with an infant son in a coma asked for help. Again Lorraine answered the call.

CBC is currently experiencing a labour disruption. INDEPTH: IMMIGRATION
The church as sanctuary
Cherfi sought sanctuary in the church in February, after losing a long battle with immigration officials to remain in Canada as a refugee from Algeria. He argued his life would be in danger if he was deported back to his homeland, where he has been a vocal critic of human rights abuses. Police found him in the basement and clamped on handcuffs.
"I am outraged, I am indignant, and I am sad," said Doré.
Cherfi's arrest was the first time police had ever breached church sanctity in Canada.
"We denounce the violent intrusion of the Quebec police into one of our sanctuaries," said the United Church of Canada in a statement released shortly after Cherfi was apprehended. The church expressed dismay the arrest would start a precedent of breaking religious sanctuaries.
The practice of giving sanctuary goes back to biblical times and was codified in the fifth century AD, when Roman law guaranteed that churches could provide refuge, even for criminals.

http://www.incite-national.org/news/lawsuits.html
MAY 2001 Indian Lawsuits Threaten Canadian Churches By JAMES BROOKE Lawsuits filed by thousands of former Indian boarding school students in Canada, claiming sexual, physical and cultural abuse, threaten to swamp the financial resources of four mainstream Christian churches that ran the schools until 1970. "I simply see us going broke," Duncan D. Wallace, the Anglican bishop of Qu'Appelle, which encompasses Regina, said of his diocese. With resignation, he added, "When you get down to it, all we need is a bottle of wine, a book and a table, and we are in business." Anger over the schools surfaced in suspicious fires that decimated the buildings, most recently an arson attack last summer that destroyed a boarded-up building that once housed the Edmonton Indian Residential School in Alberta. According to "Sins of the Fathers," a report on the schools published by The Anglican Journal, the church's monthly newspaper, last May, eight Indian men committed suicide after they were subpoenaed to testify about their sexual abuse at the boarding school in the Cariboo diocese. "When they got handed a piece of paper, they knew their secret was out," Fred Sampson, a former student of St.George's Indian Residential School, said about friends called to testify in an abuse suit that went to trial last year. "They thought, `Everybody's going to know that I let this guy do it to me for candy.' "

28. Colombian Christians Appeal To Canadian Churches
The doors are wide open for canadian churches to sponsor Colombian refugees fleeing violence in their homeland.

Assisting Refugees in Canada
Calgary: The Moreno family arrived from Colombia in December 2001. Colombian Christians Appeal to Canadian Churches February 20, 2002 -The doors are wide open for Canadian churches to sponsor Colombian refugees fleeing violence in their homeland. Tim Wichert, who works with the MCC Canada Refugee Program, says the Canadian government has agreed to give Colombian applications "urgent status" and will process their requests within days or a few weeks. "We need churches and communities in Canada to rise to the challenge," says Wichert. "We can help save lives in Colombia by giving refugees an opportunity to start a new life in Canada, free from fear." Colombia has been mired in civil war for over five decades. According to a letter from the Colombian Mennonite Church that was included in the November 2001 MCC "Peace Packet for Colombia", over 200,000 people have been killed and over two million people have been displaced as a result of the conflict. People caught in the crossfire or who have chosen to express their dissatisfaction with the status quo have suffered at the hands of the Colombian military, guerilla organizations and paramilitary groups. Dissidents have been assassinated, terrorized or forced to leave their homes. Sandra Diaz represents the sponsoring support group from a Spanish Mennonite church in Calgary.

The World Council of Churches is a fellowship of churches, now 342, in more than 120 countries in all continents from virtually all Christian traditions. The Roman Catholic Church is not a member church but works cooperatively with the WCC. The highest governing body is the assembly, which meets approximately every seven years. The WCC was formally inaugurated in 1948 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Its staff is headed by general secretary Samuel Kobia from the Methodist church in Kenya.

Canadian Churches and Foreign Policy
Norman Dyson (reviewer) What have Canadian Church people been doing in the area of foreign affairs since World War II? Bonnie Green, who participates in Project Ploughshares and is the director of the Office of Church in Society of the United Church of Canada, has collected and edited nine papers by prominent people in the field who outline a dramatic change in the approach the Churches have taken. The essays are uniformly excellent and provide insights from different perspectives. A valuable feature is the inclusion at the end of the essays of three appendices. Appendix 1 contains excerpts from a brief by the CCC to the Special Joint Committee on Canada's International Relations, November 1985. Appendix 2 is a brief to the Minister of External Affairs on policy in Southern Africa by the CCC in July 1987. Appendix 3 outlines excerpts from a 1989 discussion paper on the international debt crisis for the Canadian Churches. The Appendices show just how progressive, articulate, and sophisticated the Churches' views in foreign affairs have become.

http://www.presbyterian.ca/evangelism/missionalchurch.html
a part of The "missional church": a model for Canadian churches?
By David Horrox
Canadian culture is becoming more secular and is characterized by a greater belief in relative rather than absolute truth, a decline in traditional beliefs, behaviours, families and communities. Canada's ceremony on Parliament Hill, after the events in New York on September 11, 2001,was telling. God's name was not uttered, and prayer, hymn singing or reading from scripture of any religion were absent. This stems presumably from the belief that, if such activities took place, someone, somehow, somewhere might be offended. Although Canadian churches believe that it has the answer or humanity's problems in the message of Jesus Christ, its message is largely ignored. Faith is now a totally private matter. Allowing for Stockwell Day's shortcomings as a national leader, the ridicule to which he was subjected in the last federal election for his offence of holding Christian beliefs and, perish the thought, actually being influenced by them, clearly demonstrated the hostility towards religion, particularly the Christian religion, in our public square. Faced with an increasingly secular outlook, Canadian churches have struggled to cope with changes that they do not fully understand. To some, Canadian churches have aped the surrounding culture, with ministers becoming marketing professionals shaping religious doctrines to the needs or perceived needs of Canadians. Church language, once distinct, has become laden with secular slogans. Programs proliferate to meet the perceived needs of church members, with Bible studies in some churches concentrating on such subjects as "How God can make you a winner." The prosperity gospel, in its crassest form, reflects our materialistic, consumer-driven society. The church seems more marginalized and irrelevant to more and more Canadians, and in sharp decline in its capacity to influence the trends in our society.

Renate Pratt, In Good Faith: Canadian Churches against Apartheid, Waterloo, Ontario, Wilfred Laurier Univ. Press, 1997, 366pp. Canada has a record of belonging to the more progressive Western democracies. It has shown this on issues of foreign policy, development cooperation and human rights, and not the least in its commitment during the long period of the struggle against apartheid. However, no one should be under any illusion that its support for the abolition of apartheid was a foregone conclusion. Governments rarely act progressively unless they are forced to do so by public opinion. And public opinion makes itself felt largely through non-governmental organizations (NGOs), including the churches. That is what happened in Canada, when churches were among the first to protest publicly against their country's support for apartheid.
