As regular readers of this blog probably have noticed, Eirenikon has hit a bit of a brick wall. Without going into too many details, I will say that there have been some serious changes to my state in life which make it very difficult for me to devote to Eirenikon the kind of attention it needs in order for it to stay afloat.
In the past, I have asked a couple of regular commenters (known for both their erudition and irenic online demeanor) if they might be willing to become regular Eirenikon contributors or associate editors. Such individuals would have complete access “under the hood”, as it were, and be able to post daily news items, contribute original articles (something I have never really been very adept at), and moderate combox discussions.
None of the good people I have asked so far felt as if they could or should serve in this capacity. Which is perfectly fine and understandable, since I know the kind of time and energy it takes to make an interesting blog.
Nonetheless, I thought I might put the idea out there as a possibility for revitalizing Eirenikon. I would be curious to hear all of your opinions about this idea.
I wish you all a happy and holy Lenten Fast!
I empathize with your plight and hope you find some help with the blog. Blogging can be hugely time consuming. Being generally skeptical about restoration of communion and not enthusiastic about a lot of what I hear being floated in terms of how this would happen, I don’t believe I would be the right person for the job. But I do wish you good luck.

I am not aware of many other blogs that serve the cause of the unity of the apostolic churches as this one does. It would be a shame if it disappears.
I will help by praying. God knows what our needs are before we even ask.
God bless you, my friend!
Bonjour Irenaeus
Vous faites une belle et grande œuvre.
Ce n’est pas tant la quantité que la qualité des notes qui fait un bon blog. Apaisez vos craintes et gardez courage.
Christus omnia vincit.
Notre Seigneur et Notre Dame vous gardent toujours.
You do a great and important work.
I think that it is rather quality than quantity of the posts that makes a good and interesting blog. Keep courage and appease your heart. Christus omnia vincit.
May Our Lord and Our Lady keep you always.
How about once a week? ;)
