| A house of worship divided
|
|
Its parking lot almost empty, St. James the Apostle Episcopal Church on east Warner Road seems inordinately quiet on an overcast Monday morning, the day after Christianity’s biggest celebration. But the post-Easter calm belies St. James’ role in a worldwide shakeup within the Anglican Church. |
