- "As anticipation of July's [2013] joint Anglican-Lutheran assembly intensifies, an experimental issue of 'Rupert's Land News' (RLN) features contributors from both churches (rupertslandnews.ca/wp-content/uploads/RLN-January-2013.pdf). 'By the time Joint Assembly happens, our readers should already know that the Anglicans and the Lutherans of this region have a relationship', says Terence Moore, RLN editor. RLN increased its January 2013 run of 4,070 by 2,800 copies, which were hand-delivered to members of the 39 Lutheran congregations within Rupert's Land. 'The entire marginal cost was less than $400', says Moore, who co-edited the issues with Rick Scherger, communications co-ordinator for the Lutheran synod of Manitoba Northwestern Ontario. 'The two bishops will decide who picks up what'. Contributors include the two respective bishops, the Lutheran dean of the diocese of Rupert's Land and a Lutheran pastor. If interest warrants, the experiment may be repeated. 'The distribution is difficult, so we will not decide this lightly'." [Text of entire article.]

- Text
- Following discussions at our February meeting, this House wishes to express the following message to the committee presently evaluating the Anglican Journal:
- The House recognizes the importance of the Anglican Journal and appreciates its value as an instrument of the gospel both within and beyond the Church.
- The House views the task of the Journal as a ministry to and of the Church. That ministry is both educational and prophetic in nature. The distinct task of the Church paper, when compared to the secular press, is to encourage and connect the members of the Church with news of the life of the Church, and to interpret world events from a Christian point-of-view.
- To this end, the editor of the Anglican Journal needs to be a person who understands the work as a calling to ministry. The person appointed should be chosen as one who is informed by a convinced Christian conscience and who is an active participant in a local Christian community.
- In searching for people to work for the Church paper we believe it is the task of the Church to identify and encourage active members who have journalistic skills and experience to engage in this work as a calling and ministry. CARRIED
