Martyrology 12 09 19 Martyrology An Anglican Martyrology - for the British Isles 1 of 160 Martyrology Introduction The base text is the martyrology compiled by Fr. Hugh Feiss, OSB. Copyright © 2008 by the Monastery of the Ascension, Jerome, ID 83338 and available online at the website of the Monastery of Christ in the Desert. The calendars of each of the three Anglican churches of the British isles contain varied group commemorations, I suggest these entries are read only in the province where they are observed and have indicated that by the use of italics and brackets. However, people, particularly in the Church of England, are woefully ignorant of the history of the other Anglican churches of our islands and it would be good if all entries for the islands are used in each province. The Roman dates are also indicated where these vary from Anglican ones but not all those on the Roman Calendar have an entry. The introductions to the saints and celebrations in the Anglican calendars in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales in Exciting Holiness, ed. Brother Tristam SSF, The Canterbury Press, 1997, have been added where a saint did not already appear in the martyrology. These have been adapted to indicate the place and date of death at the beginning, as is traditional at the reading of the martyrology. For the place of death I have generally relied on Wikipedia. For Irish, Welsh and Scottish celebrations not appearing in Exciting Holiness I have used the latest edition of Celebrating the Saints, Canterbury Press, 2004. These entries are generally longer than appear in martyrologies and probably need editing down even more than I have done if they are to be read liturgically. Additional entries from the online martyrology of the Bose community have been used. I would have liked to include (as does the Bose Martyrology) the celebrations of other faith communities, however as these are movable (based often on lunar calendars) that is not easy to do. An online infer-faith calendar could be consulted to add to this martyrology. I would like to add more Celtic and Saxon saints and am working on that. Often it is hard to distinguish between saints with the same name or the same saint with alternative dates for commemoration.

Because non Christians have occasionally been mentioned the phrase and “people of good will” has been added to the usual conclusion of the reading of the martyrology. Events which are entered and are not people should be added at the beginning of the reading of the martryology when announcing the liturgical day. In adding to the base test used consideration has been given to the length of the reading for the whole day, so some of the monastic saints mentioned in that have been removed; and to ensuring the presence of more Anglican, women, married, and non-European entries. The original text included many nineteenth century saints and founders of religious communities these have largely been removed. This martyrology naturally reflects my own interests and prejudices. To reduce the length of the reading of the martyrology readings may be alternated in a two year cycle, first and third etc entry in Year 1 and so on. Obviously any entry that is going to be observed liturgically ought to be used. The reading of the martyrology traditionally occurred at the end of Prime, with the reading for the following day being read. Traditionally the day in the lunar cycle was also read announced. The martyrology may be read at the end of a daytime hour, before Compline or separately. For those praying only Morning and Evening Prayer it might helpfully occur after Evening Prayer for the following day. Fr Richard Peers, Liverpool 3 of 160 Martyrology Reading The Martyrology in the Divine Office The Martyrology for the nth day of X the year of Our Lord 20XX. [The liturgical day is then given, eg. Monday in the eighth week after Trinity, or the first entry in the martyrology if that supersedes it.] Other events at the top of the day’s entry are also read. Any entry that is to be observed liturgically is mentioned first. After the Reading from the martyrology: And elsewhere, many other holy women and holy men, saints of the Most High God and people of good will. V. Precious in the eyes of the Lord. R. Is the death of the faithful. Let us pray. May holy Mary and all the saints pray for us to the Lord, that we may obtain from Him, help and salvation, who lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen. 4 of 160 Martyrology January January 1 In Anglican calendars the Naming and Circumcision of Jesus. The celebration of this scriptural festival marks three events: firstly, the naming of the infant; secondly, the sign of the covenant between God and Abraham 'and his children for ever', thus Christ's keeping of the Law; and thirdly, traditionally the first shedding of the Christ's blood. The most significant of these in the gospels is the name itself, which means 'Yahweh saves' and so is linked to the question asked by Moses of God: "What is your name?" "I am who I am," was the reply, thus the significance of Jesus's words: "Before Abraham was, I am." This feast has been observed in the church since at least the sixth century. In the Roman Calendar on the octave of Christmas and the day of Jesus’ Circumcision, the Solemnity of Mary the Mother of God, whom the Fathers of the Council of Ephesus in 431 acclaimed Theotokos, because from her the Word assumed flesh and dwelt among us. As mother of Christ, she is mother of us all, and foremost of the saints. In 533, St. Fulgentius, a monk who served as bishop of Ruspe in Tunisia. He defended orthodoxy against Arianism, which arose from the teachings of the theologian Arius and instigated the Council of Nicaea. In 1031, St. William of Volpiano, abbot. St. Majolus, abbot of Cluny, sent him to revive monastic life at the monastery of St. Benigne in Dijon. St. Benigne became the hub of a large network of monasteries. William died at the monastery of Fécamp, which he had refounded. In 1252, at Jablonné in Bohemia, Saint Zdislava of Lemberk, who was extremely kind to the poor. With her wealthy husband, Havel, she built a basilica now dedicated to St. Lawrence and St. Zdislava. She is a patron of Bohemia. January 2 In the second half of the fourth century, Sts. Basil the Great and Gregory of Nazianzus, bishops and doctors of the church. Both were raised in remarkable Christian families. After studying together in Athens, the two embraced the monastic life at an estate on Basil’s family’s land. Basil wrote rules for monks, and later, as bishop of Caesarea in Cappodocia, he promoted monasteries as centres of social service. Like Basil, Gregory was a bishop and theologian who opposed the Arian heresy, which held that Jesus, the Son of God, was the greatest of the Father's creations and not His equal. He spent some years as bishop of Constantinople, where he helped to advance the doctrine of the Trinity, and was one of the presiders at the Council of Constantinople. In 394, St. Macarius, Egyptian monk, known for his austerity. His teachings were handed down by his disciple, Palladius. In the seventh century, in Ireland, Munchin, abbot. Munchin, a seventh-century monk, affectionately known as ‘The Wise’, is honoured in Limerick and known as patron of the city. The ‘little monk’ inaugurated a tradition of prayer and study in a golden period of Irish Christianity and Celtic monastic life. In 827, St. Adelard, abbot of Corbie, and advisor to the courts of Charlemagne and Louis the Pious. From 1792 to 1794, the martyrs of the French Revolution, who were canonised in small groups at various times during the twentieth century. In 1833 in Russia, St Seraphim of Sarov. Born in 1759 at Kursk in Russia, Seraphim entered the Monastery of our Lady at Sarov near Moscow when he was twenty years old. He lived as a Solitary for over thirty years but his gifts as a staretz, or spiritual guide, became more widely-known until he found himself sharing his gift of healing spirit, soul and body with the thousands who made the pilgrimage to his monastery. The 'Jesus Prayer' formed the heart of his own devotional life and he stressed the need for all Christians to have an 5 of 160 Martyrology unceasing communion with the person of Jesus.

    1 Translation by Catherine J. Bright and Courtney M. Booker, of Henri-Xavier Arquillière, L’Augustinisme politique: Essai sur la formation des théories politiques du Moyen-Age, second ed. (Paris: Vrin, 1955), 19–50. PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION The study that I present in these pages is by no means a general statement of Saint Augustine’s political doctrine. That has been done many times.1 The goal of my research is more limited. All medievalists have been struck by the profound intermingling of the Church and the State, which forms one of the characteristic traits of medieval civilization. How did this intimate relationship operate? How was the old Roman idea of the State absorbed by the increasing influence of the Christian idea, to the point that it led to the theory of the two swords in the twelfth century? That is the question. I have named this progressive, irregular movement political Augustinism, for want of a better term.2 I endeavored to define its formation and to mark some of its stages with precision. If by doing so I was able to open some avenues of research, in which I have directed several of my students, then I will have fully achieved my goal. I sought to observe the lives of certain ideas—to catch, in a way, their distortion in the minds of those that were simpler than the protagonists who inspired them, and to establish how these ideas came to transform major institutions, such as the monarchy. 1 See in particular the recent work of Gustave Combès, La doctrine politique de saint Augustin, Paris, 1927 (482 p.).

  • “For Christ and Covenant:” a Movement for Equal Consideration in Early Nineteenth Century Nova Scotia
    “For Christ and Covenant:” A Movement for Equal Consideration in Early Nineteenth Century Nova Scotia. By Holly Ritchie A Thesis Submitted to Saint Mary’s University, Halifax, Nova Scotia in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History © Copyright Holly Ritchie, 2017 November, 2017, Halifax, Nova Scotia Approved: Dr. S. Karly Kehoe Supervisor Approved: Dr. John Reid Reader Approved: Dr. Jerry Bannister Examiner Date: 30 November 2017 1 Abstract “For Christ and Covenant:” A Movement for Equal Consideration in Early Nineteenth Century Nova Scotia. Holly Ritchie Reverend Dr. Thomas McCulloch is a well-documented figure in Nova Scotia’s educational historiography. Despite this, his political activism and Presbyterian background has been largely overlooked. This thesis offers a re-interpretation of the well-known figure and the Pictou Academy’s fight for permeant pecuniary aid. Through examining Scotland’s early politico-religious history from the Reformation through the Covenanting crusades and into the first disruption of the Church of Scotland, this thesis demonstrates that the language of political disaffection was frequently expressed through the language of religion. As a result, this framework of response was exported with the Scottish diaspora to Nova Scotia, and used by McCulloch to stimulate a movement for equal consideration within the colony. Date: 30 November 2017 2 Acknowledgements Firstly, to the wonderful Dr. S. Karly Kehoe, thank you for providing me with an opportunity beyond my expectations. A few lines of acknowledgement does not do justice to the impact you’ve had on my academic work, and my self-confidence.

  • The Church Militant: the American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92
    The Church Militant: The American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92 Peter W. Walker Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Peter Walker All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Church Militant: The American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92 Peter W. Walker This dissertation is a study of the loyalist Church of England clergy in the American Revolution. By reconstructing the experience and identity of this largely-misunderstood group, it sheds light on the relationship between church and empire, the role of religious pluralism and toleration in the American Revolution, the dynamics of loyalist politics, and the religious impact of the American Revolution on Britain. It is based primarily on the loyalist clergy’s own correspondence and writings, the records of the American Loyalist Claims Commission, and the archives of the SPG (the Church of England’s missionary arm). The study focuses on the New England and Mid-Atlantic colonies, where Anglicans formed a religious minority and where their clergy were overwhelmingly loyalist. It begins with the founding of the SPG in 1701 and its first forays into America. It then examines the state of religious pluralism and toleration in New England, the polarising contest over the proposed creation of an American bishop after the Seven Years’ War, and the role of the loyalist clergy in the Revolutionary War itself, focusing particularly on conflicts occasioned by the Anglican liturgy and Book of Common Prayer.

It is used for instruction of her students at the annual Vacation Bible College, 1999.

It serves also as a ready handbook to pastors, teachers and missionaries, and all who have an interest in missions. May the reading of this book by the general Christian public stir up both old and young, man and woman, to play some part in hastening the preaching of the Gospel to the ends of the earth before the return of our Saviour (Matthew 24:14) Even so, come Lord Jesus Timothy Tow O Zion, Haste O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling, to tell to all the world that God is Light; that He who made all nations is not willing one soul should perish, lost in shades of night.
