CHURCH
PERIODICALS:
Regarding the following and other printed periodicals
related to the Episcopal Church, more details can be found
in The Church Annual, commonly called The Red
Book, in its section
on
periodicals. (The St. Petersburg Cathedral Book Store
carries it.) This book is well worth buying every
8 years or so, even for the average parishioner, not just
professionals. The
Red Book is brim full of info and contacts,
periodicals, religious orders, and devotional societies.
It lists all the bishops, all the clergy, Episcopal
religious orders, etc. The Red Book also
lists periodicals by dioceses, devotional groups, missionary
and educational
groups. Type the
names of the following magazines into your computer's search
engine and you will learn more. Some of these are
labeled liberal and some conservative, but all are reputable,
fine periodicals in the Episcopal / Anglican tradition of
an informed, educated
laity. You might split the cost of a subscription by going in
with several others ... then pass the magazines around to each
family. And if you don't want to keep them, give them to your
Parish Library.
