St. Jude's Anglican Church Plaque Inventory Report St. Jude’s Anglican Church Plaque Inventory Report Prepared by Brantford Heritage Committee Places of Worship Sub-Committee February 2019 Brantford Heritage Committee Places of Worship Sub-Committee St. Jude’s Anglican Church Plaque Inventory Executive Summary In November of 2018, the Places of Worship Sub-Committee of the Brantford Heritage Committee completed an inventory of the memorial plaques located in the interior of the former St. Jude’s Anglican Church. As the building had recently been sold for adaptive re-use as a condominium, there had been a request from the new owners of St. Jude’s Anglican Church, Andrew Neill Construction Inc. (ANC), to the Brantford Heritage Committee to provide direction as to how best conserve these historic features and elements of the church with heritage value. The plaque inventory comprised a form recording the location, size, material and date of each plaque. The transcriptions of each plaque were documented, and all were photographed. A total of 25 plaques and one commendation were recorded. The majority of the plaques were small engraved brass plates acknowledging the contributions of parish members towards the acquisition of elements of the church and towards the maintenance and restoration of the murals, organ and stain glass windows. A smaller number of plaques were primarily memorial records dedicated to members of the parish and comprising larger marble and cast bronze plaques. Three plaques, however, were deemed to have a broader community significance, with one recognizing Colonel Jasper Tough Gilkison (an early political figure in the Brantford community), and two plaques listing 37 citizens of Brantford who had lost their lives during World Wars I and II. Given the historical significance of these three plaques to the story of the City of Brantford, it is recommended that these plaques be placed in temporary storage within facilities maintained by the City until the appropriate disposition is determined. It is also recommended that the remaining 22 plaques and commendation certificate should remain within the building and placed within the proposed common room area of the condominium as each of these plaques is related to St. Jude’s Church building and members of its parish. Introduction The Brantford Heritage Committee established the Places of Worship Sub-Committee in November, 2017 in order to address and assume a liaison roll regarding the closure or adaptive re-purposing of churches within the City of Brantford. In addition, for those churches not facing closure, the Sub-Committee endeavours to advise on the opportunity for these churches to consider designation or heritage conservation easement agreements under the Ontario Heritage Act. As church closures trigger new ownership, there is the potential for the loss of tangible elements of Brantford’s history and heritage. In particular, as ownerships change there is currently no protection for memorial plaques and other heritage features that document this history. The fate of these items is to simply dispose of them in dumpsters as there is no community guidance for their appropriate disposition. This situation can be observed during the recent demolition of All Saint’s Church in the City of Hamilton (Figure 1). The mandate of the Places of Worship Sub -Committee is to prepare a draft Places of Worship policy to assist the City of Brantford to prevent the irrevocable loss of the record of these significant community heritage resources. Figure 1 History Of immediate concern to the Places of Worship Sub-Committee was the future of St. Jude’s Anglican Church designated in 1994, as a National Historic Site of Canada. The Brantford Heritage Committee in 2017, made a recommendation to City council to designate St. Jude’s Anglican Church under the Ontario Heritage Act, to ensure the protection of the building as the church had been deconsecrated and was being sold by the Anglican diocese. While this effort was unsuccessful, the current owners, Andrew Neill Construction Inc. (ANC) reached out to the Brantford Heritage Committee in July 2018, for assistance as to how to best commemorate and maintain the historic importance of the hand painted murals and memorial plaques located within the building. The owners are currently in the process of re-developing the property into a condominium complex. Plaque Inventory The Places of Worship Sub-Committee therefore initiated a plaque inventory as a response to the concerns of ANC. This process started with the preparation of an inventory sheet to record the location, size, material and date of each plaque. The form briefly outlined the various events or people commemorated. All of the transcriptions on the plaques were recorded and each plaque was photographed. A total of 25 plaques and one commendation was recorded. The inventory of the plaques can be found in Appendix A. The plaques ranged in style and material with the majority being small brass engraved plates. These brass plaques were most often placed just below the multiple large stained glass windows and ranged in size from 9 cm by 6 cm to 23 cm by 5 cm. The majority of these plaques identified the various families who contributed towards the restoration of the stained glass windows and in one case the organ restoration. In addition, these plaques acknowledged family members who had gifted items as such as the baptistry and oils ambry, the sanctuary lamp and the ambry lamp. The earliest date of this type of plaque was 1974 and the most recent of these plaques to be erected was 2008. A total of 15 brass plaques were recorded. One other memorial was a small framed acknowledgment of the heritage of St. Jude’s presented to the church by the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario. Other larger plaques were made from marble or cast bronze and recognized prominent members of the congregation. The names Hadley, Smith, Bourne, Gilkison, Passmore, Senn, Walker and Harris were observed. The earliest of these plaques engraved in marble dates to 1874 and is a memorial to a Harry Smith who died at the age of 20 years. Another marble plaque was erected to acknowledge Colonel Jasper Tough Gilkison, a founder of St. Jude’s Church and the superintendent of the “Six Nations Indians” for a period of 29 years. This plaque also acknowledges his wife’s contribution to the parish as the first organist of St. Jude’s. A third marble plaque is a memorial to Christopher E. Passmore, the People’s Warden. This is the only plaque which is inlaid into the fabric of the wall, whereas all other plaques have been attached on top of the surface of the church walls or window ledges. A total of five cast bronze plaques were inventoried with three placed as memorials to a family, while the remaining two acknowledged the contribution of the Walker family towards the restoration of the painted murals in 1984 and the Harris family for the additions of the baptistery, entrance and alcoves. All of these plaques are in very good condition. Finally, two plaques were erected to honour those men who had been killed in action serving in the Canadian military during the First and Second World Wars. The First World War plaque lists 12 members of the parish who gave their lives in the “Great War” and states “They Suffered and Served.” The Second World War plaque lists 22 members of the parish who sacrificed their lives. The plaque reads, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” These appear as secular war memorials rather than religious commemorations. Conclusions The results of the Places of Worship Sub-Committee plaque inventory concluded that two types of memorial plaques could be identified. The first are those that relate directly to a feature or the structure of the building and secondly those that have significance to the community. Following on this distinction the plaques from St. Jude’s were divided into two groups and categorized with a “B” for the building commemoration and a “C” for community commemoration. Of the community plaques, these were further divided into categories of a military association and those acknowledging the members of the St. Jude’s parish. Upon further analysis the community plaques can be differentiated with associations to significant contributions to local Brantford history. The plaque dedicated to Colonel Jasper Tough Gilkison, a superintendent of the Six Nations prior to his death in 1906, speaks to his public contribution to political life at the time. Overall, of the 25 plaques, all 15 brass engraved plaques were considered as “B”s thereby belonging to the building. The small framed commendation also belongs to the building as it recognizes the heritage of the structure. Of the eight marble and cast bronze plaques, (with the exception of the Gilkison plaque), all could similarly be associated with the parish or the building itself and would be defined as “B’’ plaques. The Gilkison plaque and the bronze war memorial plaques listing the men killed during the First World War and the Second World War, are defined as “C”s which represent importance to the broader community of Brantford. These plaques recognize the work and sacrifices of these men beyond the confines of St. Jude’s Anglican Church. Recommendations During the course of the inventory, discussions between ANC and the members of the Places of Worship Sub- Committee have continued with ANC advising the committee that they are looking into incorporating the memorial plaques into the common room of the condominium complex along with photographs of the murals. The Places of Worship Sub-Committee is in agreement with this suggestion and recommends that all plaques defined as being “B” totalling 23, should be retained with the building.

An altar server is a lay assistant to a member of the clergy during a religious service. An altar server attends to supporting tasks at the altar such as fetching and carrying, ringing bells, setting up, cleaning up, and so on. Until 1983, only young men whom the Church sometimes hoped to recruit for the priesthood and seminarians could serve at the altar, and thus altar boy was the usual term until Canon 230 was changed in the 1983 update to the Code of Canon which provided the option for local ordinaries (bishops) to permit females to serve at the altar. The term altar server is now widely used and accepted. When altar servers were only young men and seminarians the term acolyte was used. An acolyte is one of the instituted orders which is installed by a bishop. The title of acolyte is still only given to men as it is historically a minor order of ordained ministry. This term is now usually reserved for the ministry that all who are to be promoted to the diaconate receives at least six months before being ordained a deacon (c.

  • What Is an Ambry?“ You Ask
    AMBRY Have you noticed the new cabinet over the baptismal font? It is an AMBRY. “What is an ambry?“ you ask. The box or type of small closet or cupboard. It holds three holy oils that are used for various sacraments. These oils are blessed once a year by the bishop at what is called the Chrism Mass during Holy Week, and then distributed to all the parishes in his diocese. The first oil blessed is the Oil of Catechumens, which is used to anoint those to be baptized into the Catholic faith. The second oil is the Sacred Chrism, commonly used immediately after Baptism, but also at Confirmation and Holy Orders. The last oil blessed by the bishop is the Oil of the Infirm and is used by priests for the Anointing of the Sick. The containers that hold the oils are often marked with the abbreviations O.C., S.C., and O.I. There is a growing practice in the Church of visibly displaying the holy oils in an ambry and placing the ambry where they can be seen so that the faithful can better regard the significance of the oils in the Sacraments. The parish is grateful to those donors who made the purchase of our new AMBRY possible! MONSTRANCE The monstrance is a liturgical vessel used to display the Real Pres- ence of our Lord Jesus Christ in the form of the Sacred Host for its adoration and veneration outside Mass and outside of the taber- nacle. It is used during perpetual and public Eucharistic adoration and during Eucharistic processions.

  • A Guide to the Windows of Trinity Cathedral
    A GUIDE TO THE WINDOWS OF TRINITY CATHEDRAL With Descriptions of Other Works of Art The Rev’d. Grant S. Carey, D.D. Canon Residentiary Trinity Episcopal Cathedral Sacramento, California Introduction Stained glass windows in cathedrals date from the high-middle ages in Europe. They served several purposes. One was to celebrate God’s creation through the newly developed art form of stained glass. A more practical reason was to tell the story of the Bible and the lives of the saints since many people were unable to read or write. In this sense, stained class windows were an early form of Christian education as well as providing light. The Cathedral’s windows illustrate both of these ancient purposes, providing both light and meaning. Observe the circular window high above the entrance to the Cathedral shows a dove descending (the Holy Spirit), a chalice and host, and the Greek Alpha and Omega, (Christ, “the beginning and the end”). Wheat and grapes symbolize the bread and wine of Holy Communion. The purpose of this guide is to assist the viewer gain a deeper understanding of the purpose envisioned by the artists. It is suggested that the tour of the Cathedral start at the west transept, walking toward the back of the Cathedral, spending time at the narthex doors, then walking down the west aisle to the east transept which contains the columbarium and the windows depicting Saints Peter and Paul and the Holy Trinity. While in the East Transept, note the side altar over which hangs a golden icon depicting the visit to Abraham of three strangers (Genesis 18).

  • PART ONE Instructed Eucharist Dina Welcomes the Congregation
    PART ONE Instructed Eucharist Dina welcomes the congregation, explains what’s going to happen, asks the congregation to stay seated for the opening narration. The first thing we will learn about is gathering for Worship Welcome. Today is the first Sunday in Lent. For the next four Sundays, we will have an “Instructed Eucharist.” That means that we will take a portion of our worship service and look closely at it, discussing the meaning of what we are doing and common practices of worship in the Episcopal Church. Our goal is to deepen our worship experience. Sunday worship is a version of the Easter Celebration. We worship on Sunday because this is the day of the week that Jesus Christ rose from the dead. Every time we come together on Sunday, no matter what the season, we give thanks to God for the new life given us in Jesus’ resurrection. We call what we do the “liturgy.” Liturgy means “the work of the people” in Greek. It is our corporate calling and responsibility to worship God. The focus of worship is God. We will often find ourselves blessed and renewed by the worship service, although that is not our focus. When we lift our prayers and praises to God, we inevitably will find that God enriches us. We gather together for worship in a spirit of prayer and anticipation for what God will say among us. In preparation for worship, we greet one another and pray. Quiet and music help foster that spirit. The musical prelude helps lift our hearts to God and prepare us for worship.

    WHAT IS THE Q: CHRISM MASS? Traditionally, the Chrism Mass is celebrated during Holy Week, on the morning of Holy Thursday. However, it can fall on another day of the week, or during the Lenten season, as close to Holy Week as possible. During the Mass, three types of oils are blessed for use in each parish in the diocese for the coming year. Also at the Mass, all the priests and the bishop publicly renew their commitment to priestly service. Q: WHAT ARE THE THREE OILS?

  • Liturgical Manual for Deacons
    Liturgical Manual For Deacons ROMAN CATHOLIC DIOCESE OF PHOENIX 2012 REVISION PREFACE OF AD 2007 This liturgical guide for deacons was developed to be a practical tool for the preparation of deacon candidates and for the on-going formation of those already ordained to the diaconate. It is a teaching resource for candidates and deacons. It is also intended to be a reference for pastors who have deacons assigned to the parish and especially for priest celebrants who have deacons assisting them at Mass. The aspiration is this document will help unfold the beauty of the sacred liturgy, promote understanding, prayerfulness, reverence, and unity in the liturgical service of deacons. This guide is intended to be a “living document” which will be reviewed, amended, and revised as needed to remain accurate, current, and useful. It will always be a work in progress as new and better ways are found to form deacons liturgically. The steps leading to the development of this guide were begun by Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted with his authorization of a study committee to facilitate the revision of the 1994 Liturgical Handbook for Deacons, which had become outdated. His directions to the committee were to draft a liturgical guide which (1) involved consultation with the primary stakeholders, (2) was developed under the leadership of the Office of Worship and facilitated by the Office of the Diaconate, (3) which included consultation with an outside expert in liturgy and the diaconate, and (4) was practical for the use of deacon candidates, deacons, priests, pastors and the bishop. Members of the study committee were Roslyn Gutierrez, past Director of the Office of Worship, Sr.
