A PLACE WHERE THOSE WHO LIVE IN THE ANGLICAN CONTINUUM, OR WHO ARE THINKING OF MOVING THERE, MIGHT SHARE IN ROBUST, IF POLITE, DISCUSSION OF MATTERS THEOLOGICAL AND ECCLESIOLOGICAL. QUOD UBIQUE, QUOD SEMPER, QUOD AB OMNIBUS CREDITUM EST
Hi Father Hart. I noticed that you are wearing blue vestments. Is this common during Advent in traditional Anglican communities in the United States? Certainly in Australia both Anglican continuum and mainstream Anglican priests will wear the customary purple during Advent and rose vestments (if available) in the third week.
I suppose this answer might not satisfy some readers. People here, before I came about seven years ago, had spent money on this "Sarum Blue." I'm a theologian and pastor, but not a "Liturgist." To me it really isn't important because I'm concentrating on what to preach, and what the people need. I'm more comfortable with purple, but wasn't about to make an issue of it.
