Companies do not have enough workers to fulfill the work needed to be completed, now means salaries are high and still rising. Have a listen.

Why do Anglicans use real wine at Communion rather than grape juice? In this edition of Ask the Church, we trace the story from the temperance movement and the invention of pasteurization, to the historical reasons Port became common in Anglican churches. We also address the question of what to do if you struggle with alcohol or gluten, and discuss why, if receiving only bread or only wine, we still participate fully in Communion.

Do Anglicans believe in transubstantiation? This edition of Ask the Church explores why Article 28 of the Anglican Articles of Religion rejects the Roman Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation, while still affirming that Christ truly offers His Body and Blood in the Eucharist. Drawing on the Anglican idea of “efficacious signs,” we see how the Sacrament both signifies and accomplishes what it promises (Christ's "Real Presence" in the Eucharist). Rather than speculating about how the mystery works, Anglicans emphasize the gift itself: Jesus offering Himself to us in the Eucharist.

This fall in Sunday School, we are taking a deep dive into some of the most frequently asked questions that have been sent in for Ask the Church. In this first session, we look at the biblical and historical roots of ordination—what it means to be a bishop, priest, deacon, or lay person—and why these roles matter. Far from being “super-Christians,” clergy exist to equip the whole body for ministry. Every believer is called, gifted, and empowered by the Holy Spirit to serve God, one another, and the world.⛪ Church of the Incarnation is an Anglican (ACNA) parish in western Henrico, Virginia, committed to:
