About twenty seconds into his answer, I realized that I had forgotten to turn the camera on, so the interview starts with him somewhat in the middle of his answer. (Mea culpa, but since I am camera crew, interviewer, and producer all in one, there is no one besides myself to fire, and I decided the most appropriate censure for this lapse is a stern warning not to let this happen again – so consider me warned!)]

So, here is my interview with the Most Rev. Henry Luke Orombi, Archbishop of the Anglican Church of the Province of Uganda, for AnglicanTV, held Monday, May 19, 2008, at St. James Anglican, Newport Beach, California. It runs about 30 minutes

Areas covered:

• An update on the Buddo Girls School fire and recovery
• Anglican Men's Retreat (an annual event, held this past weekend in southern California)
• Moses, Joshua, and Caleb
• Thoughts on Bishop Bob Duncan, Diocese of Pittsburgh
• The Dar-Es-Salaam Communiqué Sept. 30 deadline
• Lambeth 2008
• GAFCON
• The Anglican Covenant
• The recent exchange of letters with the Presiding Bishop on his visit to Savannah
• Rick Warren and his gift of networking
• Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury
• A message for the American orthodox

This is an interview with Eric Sohlgren, attorney with Payne & Fears LLP in Irvine, California, about the on-going litigation between the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles and churches which have voted to leave the diocese, move under Anglican bishops, and retain their property. Mr. Sohlgren is the lead attorney for St. James Anglican in Newport Beach.

These cases have moved to the California Supreme Court, and in mid-November, the opening brief for St. James was filed. Here is the press release from Payne & Fears on the filing, and here is a copy of the opening brief itself.

The next few months are going to be busy for AnglicanTV and we hope you enjoy the extra coverage. Anne Coletta is conducting some special interviews on the east coast this month and we I will be traveling to three or four general conventions. I have also penciled Mark Lawrence's Consecration into my schedule.

St. John’s Anglican is in Fallbrook, California.  The congregation voted in July of 2006 to move under the Bishop of Luwero in the Province of Uganda (copy of initial press release here).  The Episcopal Diocese of San Diego brought a lawsuit in September of 2006 against St. John’s to claim the property—see more info here and here.  In November, a San Diego Superior Court judge ruled against the Diocese and in favor of St. John’s.  This AnglicanTV interview was done a few weeks after that ruling and right after the Diocese of San Joaquin convention, which Fr. Kroeger attended.  The Diocese of San Diego then tried to revive its lawsuit and this was denied as well on February 1, 2007, by the same Superior Court judge.
