- Notes
- "The Parthenon Foundation in Switzerland has awarded a grant of 150,000 [pounds sterling] to the Anglican Communion Secretariat in London of an endowment for the Communications programme. .... The Rev, Canon Samir J. Habiby, the Chaplain of Christ Church, Lausanne (which the Chairman of the Parthenon Trust attends) is an active member of the Anglican Communion's Compass Rose Society." "The 150,000 [pounds sterling] grant is the first major donation to the endowment which will total US $20,000,000 when complete. Canon Peterson, through the efforts of the Compass Rose Society ... hopes that the endowment will be in place by the end of 2003 when he leaves office." "The Communications work is accomplished almost single-handedly by Lay Canon James Rosenthal, an appointed missionary of the Episcopal Church U.S.A.". He is editor of the Anglican World and responsible for the telecommunications operations including being editor of the web-based Anglican Communion News Service. He is also a photographer and often travels with the Archbishop of Canterbury or General Secretary.
