12 THE LIVING CHURCH · NOVEMBER I. 2009 EDITORIALS

Conformedto Christ In July, the Rt. Rev. Jeffery Rowthom wrote a guest column for this magazine in which he sought to explain the thinking of the Calendar Committee of the Standing Commiss ion on Liturgy and Music in recom­ mending which persons to include in Holy Women, Holy Men. Bishop Rowthom called it "almost certainly one of the richest and most varied of the church calendars currently available" and argued that it is a "gift ... to the wider Christian family" because it recognized the "range of pro­ fessions and callings through which Christian men and women have lived out their faith." Later that month , General Convention approved Holy Women, Holy Men for optional observance. While the merits of the Episcopal Church commemorating the likes of Vida Scudder and Copernicus are certainly open to debate, Bishop Rowthom 's choice of words echoes the Revelation to John, which famously describes the saints as "a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation , from all tribes and peoples and tongues" (Rev. 7:9). The wide variety of personalities and gifts displayed by those women and men the Chur ch has officially recognized as saints is ext raor­ Thesaints' lives dinary indeed. From child martyrs to sage abbots, from battle-tested sol­ diers to virgin visionaries , their lives of faith, obedience, and courage of faith,obedience, have inspired every generation through two millennia More wide-ranging still are the stories and ministries of those whose faith and accomplishments will never be recognized on any calendar but andcourage have who share with their more famous brothers and sisters a common trait: They conformed their lives to Christ through their self-giving love. The inspiredevery Holy Spirit encourages each of us to join this holy fellowship , living our lives in such a way that we allow God's sanctifying work to shine generationthrough through. How fitting, then, to introduce in this All Saints' Day issue of THELiv­ two millennia. ING CHURCHa series of profiles by Richard Mammana on catholic-minded American Anglicans whose lives of service and mission can inspire our own. We begin with Jackson Kemper, a bishop whose energy and mis­ sionary zeal for Jesus Christ shaped the Episcopal Church on the coun­ try's 19th-century frontier and galvanized many other men to pursue holy orders and build upon his remarkable success . Each entry in the "Angli­ can Faces" series will also include a selection of the subject 's own words. One cannot help but be inspired by the fervor of Bishop Kemper's exhortation on the necessity of missionary work that he delivered to his fellow clergy during a visit to New York. It is easy to honor and remember the often colorful heroes and hero­ ines of our faith, as we do this day. It is infinitely more difficult to emu­ late their example by making God pre sent in our own circumstances, whatever they may be: in our homes , schools , jobs, or our search for meaningful work; in our families or in our solitude. But as we take each small step, with intentionality and obedience , we will find that we our­ selves are joining in praise with that "great cloud of witnesses " (Heb. 12:1). May our voices blend with theirs, today and always.

Almight y God ... give us grace so to fo llow your blessed saints in all vi rtu ous and godly living, that we may come to those ineffabl e )°oys that you have pr epared for those who tru ly love you. From the Collect for All Saints', page 245, BCP
