The English (Atheiral of Quebe}
THE ENGLISH (ATHEIRAL OF QUEBE}. READ BEFORE THE £iterary and jistorical $atitty, Quebec, 10th March, 1891, BY F RED. C. WUR TELE, ESQ. In writing the history of the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity of Quebec, it will not be out of place to give a short sketch of those good Monks and Friars of the order of St. Francis who were the former proprietors of the land on which the sacred edifice has been built. The mendicant order of Monks, called Franciscans, was founded in Spain, in the year 1208, by St. Francis d'Assisi.* Subsequently they spread into Italy and were introduced into France by St. Louis of Gonzaga. They were also called “Récollets,” from the latin word “Recollectus,” sig nifying “meditation” and also “gathering.” Their chief works were teaching, nursing the sick, and ministering to the poor, whose wants they supplied out of the donations and alms which they received. In fact their livelihood was obtained entirely by begging, performed by the “Frères Mineurs,” and so highly were they esteemed and beloved in old Canada, that the “habitants” would always transport free of charge the results of their begging expeditions from village to village and finally to the con vent in Quebec. The boatmen invariably were pleased to ferry them free across the St. Lawrence, * DeSalignac, 64 Samuel de Champlain relates, that “he was convinced of “the necessity of religious instruction to influence such of “the Indian population of Canada as might be induced to “turn to agricultural pursuits.” In this connexion he was directed by Sieur Louis Houel, at Brouage to apply to the General of the Order of Recollets. -
Anic Newsletter
ANiC Newsletter 6 October 2008 News shorts – ANiC and AEN And then there were 21… In the past eight days, the Anglican Network in Canada (ANiC) has grown from 18 parishes to 21. The congregations of St George’s (Ottawa) and the Church of St Peter (Hamilton) both voted with overwhelming majorities on Sunday, October 5 to come under the episcopal oversight of Bishop Don and under the Primatial authority of Archbishop Greg. At St George’s the vote was 130 in favour and 27 opposed, while at St Peter’s, 42 voted in favour and one was opposed. The two congregations reached their decisions with remarkable unity of spirit. Even at St George’s where a number of the members did not favour the decision, the meeting was marked by civility, love and a commitment to continued worship together. See the news release … Learn more about St George’s and St Peter’s . Diocese tries to discredit St Aidan’s unanimous vote Immediately following St Aidan’s unanimous vote on September 28, the diocese began to question the legitimacy of the vote. The Rt Rev Robert Bennett, of the Huron Diocese, is reported to have said he was "concerned that they [St Aidan’s] may have not used due diligence to make sure the whole membership was invited" to the meeting. In fact, the turnout for the meeting was higher than at past vestries, and while some eligible vestry members were unable to attend due to other commitments, many have since indicated their solid support in writing. (The Canons of the Diocese of Huron do not allow for proxy votes.) ANiC welcomes more clergy On Sunday, Bishop Don ordained two deacons – Jess Cantelon and Ronda Nychka. -

The Algoma Anglican enters your home for the first time today and we hope you will invite it back again, every month, for a long time to come. The idea of a monthly paper for Anglicans in the Diocese of Al- goma originated with His Grace Archbishop W. L. Wright, who felt such a publication would do much to unite the common interests of all the people in our far-flung diocese. Algoma covers such a wide territory that to date many of us in one part of the diocese have had little or no opportunity to learn about the activities and progress of our fellow churchmen in other sections. It is hoped, therefore, that the Algoma Anglican will rectify this situation, that it will keep us all informed of what is going on in all parts of the diocese, and, perhaps more importantly, help us to know each other better and more deeply understand each other’s problems and hopes. The success of the Algoma Anglican will depend, of course, on the support it receives from our people throughout the diocese. Circulation will develop if the paper has readership value, and readership value will develop if every parish in the diocese reports fully on its activities. In this connection we would like to suggest that each parish appoint a correspondent who would be respon- St. -

The number of English settlers does not compare with the number to be found in those dioceses which include the huge Canadian prairie ; but it is, nevertheless, so large, and the wide area over which they are scattered is so great, that the work which is being done amongst them is of a specially difficult character. A thrill of pleasure passed over all who were acquainted with life and work in Algoma when its Bishop recently refused to accept another bishopric that was offered to him, which would have entailed less arduous work than that which he has nobly accomplished during nearly twenty years. We hope that the present volume will draw the attention of many to the needs and claims of this diocese. It is based upon ‘ By Lake and Forest,’ which was written by F.
