Adoration of the Shepherds (1544-45) Royal Collection, Windsor BASSANO, Jacopo (1515 - 1592) The Adoration of the Shepherds is an imposing composition dating from around 1544-45 and the time of the artists early maturity. The main compositional features of this painting are the treatment of the architecture, the Virgin’s expression of concern for the Child, and the figure of the shepherd who acknowledges the Holy Family by removing his headgear. Note the architectural features and the shepherd playing the bagpipes recall the woodcut of the Nativity in Dürer’s Little Passion of 1511. On a general basis the naturalistic aspects of the composition are often compared with Netherlandish painting, particularly the work of artists such as Pieter Aertsen. Such observations perhaps over-emphasise the eclectic elements in Bassano’s art when it is preferable to stress the scale of the work, the firm drawing, the warm colouring and the view of the artist’s home town of Bassano del Grappa. The tree prefigures the death of Christ on the cross. HOME PAGE 2 DECEMBER 2019 - THE DIOCESAN TIMES COLUMNIST Something new for St Bart’s, and it is not red!

  • Baptist North American Phase Communiqué
    North American Phase 2003 Communiqué The North American phase of the international theological conversations between Anglicans and Baptists was held at Acadia University, Wolfville, Nova Scotia, from 10 - 12 September 2003. This regional meeting follows five previous phases held in Norwich (for Europe) in 2000, Yangon (for Asia/Pacific) in 2001, Nairobi (for Africa), in 2002, Santiago,Chile (for Latin America) and Nassau (for the Caribbean) in January 2003. Participants came from the United States and Canada, representing their respective Churches and joined the members of the "Continuation Committee" which is conducting these regional gatherings on behalf of the Baptist World Alliance and the Anglican Communion. The Anglican and Baptist representatives gave an overview of the life of their respective communions in North America. Seven substantive papers were presented on Common Challenges facing Anglicans and Baptists in North America, Baptist Life in North America, A North American Baptist Understanding of Continuity, two papers on The Nature and Role of the Church from Anglican and Baptist perspectives and paired papers on Authority. The plenary discussion drew together insights from the American and Canadian contexts and related them to the themes emerging from previous regional conversations, namely: continuity and story; the meaning of recognition; mission and ministry; baptism and Christian initiation; membership of the Church; the Eucharist or Lord's Supper; oversight and episcope; and confessing the apostolic faith. Discussion focussed on how each tradition handled diversity of views within their tradition, and the nature of denominational allegiance as well as the diversity between the two communions. The meeting began with a celebration of an Anglican Eucharist in the local parish church, and included shared prayer and devotions conducted by Baptists and Anglicans.

These notes of family history are published as a prelim­ inary study. Only proved facts are given as truth, but in the hope of eliciting something yet unknown, there are noted vague traditions, fragmentary records, slight sug­ gestions of a possible clue, and hypotheses worthy at least of careful scrutiny. He who adds a single stone to this cairn rearing to the memory of our ancestors, aids in a sacred work.

  • The Provincial Synod of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada
    The Provincial Synod of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada Presidential Address given by The Most Reverend Andrew S. Hutchison Quebec City, September 18, 2003 On this day in 1893 members of the first General Synod gathered in St. James Cathedral, Toronto for a service of Thanksgiving. No longer were we three Provinces, each owing our allegiance to the Church of England. We were, and have been since that date, an independent national church. It is therefore a happy coincidence that with us is the Primate, The Most Rev'd Michael Peers and the General Secretary of General Synod, The Venerable Jim Boyles In the words of the Gospel, For here the saying holds true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you did not labour. Others have laboured, and you have entered into their labours. (John 4: 37-8) It is a time to look back to what was sown in other generations to bring us the harvest we now reap. Much of it is good and inspires us to thanksgiving. Some of it, in the clear light of hindsight is not. We reap the harvest of the good with the bad. And with such nourishment as the harvest provides, we labour to prepare the ground and do planting of our own for generations after us to harvest. Since we last met in Halifax in September 2000 we have said farewell to the Bishop of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, our 19th Metropolitan, Arthur Peters. The Bishop of Central Newfoundland, Eddie Marsh retired, and very soon the Bishop of Fredericton, William Hockin will join them in retirement, as will the Bishop of Western Newfoundland, Leonard Whitten, and in February, our Primate Michael Peers.
