Grant that in our search for the Eleventh Bishop of Louisiana we may be open to your will, receptive of your guidance, and ready in obedience. By your abundant grace may we lay aside any shallow self-interest so that in seeking to elect your servant we may serve you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. 3 IN T RODU ct ION After almost 12 years of ministry, our Diocesan Bishop, Charles Jenkins, will retire in January 2010. Bishop Jenkins has provided tremendous leadership for our diocese — particularly in the wake of a series of devastating hurricanes. He has also been active in the national church and the House of Bishops. He is widely loved and respected in our diocese among both clergy and laity — he will be sorely missed. Our diocese has been through trying times. We have been washed away by the floods, and blown away by hurricane force winds. We have been on the Jericho Road, dependent on help from the generous Samaritan.

  • From: MISSISSIPPI
    An Informal History Of St. Clement’s Episcopal Church Vaiden, Mississippi 1876 – 1976 by Emily Barksdale Humphrey p. i PREFACE “There be some who have left a name behind them and whose remembrance is sweet. And there be some who have no memorial. But their righteousness has not been forgotten and their glory shall not be blotted out.” Eccl. 44 ONE HUNDRED YEARS IN HIS HOUSE This is a story which for 100 years has stood looking eastward over the green trees of Vaiden, the Big Black River, and the eternal sunrise. It is a house that belongs to the Holy Trinity and to the many dozens of His human children whose feet have crossed its threshold with the past century, bringing their joys, griefs, fears, hopes and frustrations, and laying them down in the quiet peace of His sanctuary. Some places seem to have a memory and living spirit. We do well to keep such places holy and to seek what they have to tell us. Inescapably it is also the story of an era that has passed and of another era beginning. It is in part the story of Vaiden and of those sturdy old homes in winter with crackling fires and comfortable chairs, broad porches in summer and picket fences, winding walks and armies of squirrels and robins. It is all part of that 100 years of history which is the heritage of the Church of St. Clement’s. In order that it may not be lost it must be written down. Emily Barksdale Humphrey has happily recorded many interesting facts about our church as only one can do who has deep affection, and as one who attended the church as a child and was there baptized and confirmed.

A circle of his followers watched him as he spread the small roll of sheepskin before him, then tied the parchment with a purple thread, sealed it with his gem- studded seal and handed it to a waiting messenger, who mounted his camel and was away, across the desert, into the deepening dark. The scene shifts; the centuries pass. The Saxon abbot is alone in his meager library, and he scans once more the sheepskin on which the brilliant colors shine. They spell out in gold, ruby, sapphire blue, a secret message of great importance, that the student monks have written and illuminated with all care and laid before him. He forms it all into a booklet and ties it with a purple figment of silk that matches his robe. Then he reaches for his lead seal and presses the beeswax into the knot, so that the image of the mitre and the cross is plain to see. The document is ready for the fleet-footed messenger.

All, save the clouds of sin, are Thine! 2 Sun of our life, Thy quickening ray 4 Lord of all life, below, above, Sheds on our path the glow of day; Whose light is truth, whose warmth is love, Star of our hope, Thy softened light Before Thy ever-blazing throne Cheers the long watches of the night.
