Refugee in New England James C.

This ageless town father (permanent Fire Chief, Rescue Squad captain, trash collector, and problem-solver) — whose grandfather once owned the rugged ocean-side pasture land which developers now sell for over a hundred thousand per acre — shook his grizzled head in disbelief. "Jesus," he said, "and I thought you folks were natives by now." Natives. I stood there silent for a while after he pulled away in his pickup, gazing into the pines and listening to the distant surf. Natives. The word, the accolade, slowly sank into me. That made us Truro people, Outer Cape people rooted in the first place the Pil- grims had tried going ashore.

  • Ian T. Douglas: Our Job Is Not to Keep the Church in Business
    MISSIONS & EVANGELISM Ian T. Douglas: Our job is not to keep the church in business Image courtesy of Episcopal Church in Connecticut The Episcopal bishop of Connecticut says his role is prodding, challenging, inviting and encouraging the faithful to ask the question, “What is God up to in the neighborhood?” TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 2018 As bishop of the Episcopal Church in Connecticut, the Rt. Rev. Ian T. Douglas takes seriously his administrative duties. But, he says, he also enjoys “throwing all things up in the air, causing chaos, inviting imagination and encouraging folk, particularly by virtue of their baptism.” Specifically, he points to efforts, at both the diocesan and the parish level, to send Christians out into the world, open to the work of the Spirit. “How do we join in that faithfully, and what does it mean to be a disciple, a follower of Jesus today, who is sent into the world as an apostle to join God in God’s mission?” he said. Douglas, who was elected bishop in 2009, serves approximately 168 parishes and faith communities in the state of Connecticut. Prior to that, he was the Angus Dun Professor of Mission and World Christianity at Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He earned an M.Div. from Harvard Divinity School and a Ph.D. in missiology from Boston University. Douglas spoke with Faith & Leadership while at Duke for the 2018 Convocation & Pastors’ School. The following is an edited transcript. Q: As a missiologist and a theologian, how do you understand the mission of God in the world? You’re beginning at the right place, because I think too often particularly those of us in church leadership begin with, “What is the mission of the church?” rather than, “What is the mission of God?” Speaking as a Christian, understanding that the mission of God comes from the narrative given to us in Scripture, that God out of God’s love created the universe and all creation, and it was good, as Scripture tells us.

JACKSON† * * * † Associate Justice, Supreme Court of the United States (1941–1954). (1) 2 University of Pennsylvania Law Review [Vol. 168: 1 INTRODUCTION John Q. Barrett†† In his final years, United States Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson worked on a number of autobiographical writing projects. The previously unknown Jackson text that follows this Introduction is one such writing. Justice Jackson wrote this essay in longhand on thirteen yellow legal pad pages in the early 1950s. It is Jackson’s writing about religion in his life. After Justice Jackson’s death in 1954, his secretary Elsie L. Douglas found the thirteen pages among his papers.1 She concluded that the pages were “undoubtedly prepared as part of his autobiography,”2 typed them up, and gave a file folder containing the original pages plus her typescript to Jackson’s son William Eldred Jackson, then a young partner in the Milbank, Tweed, Hope, and Hadley law firm in New York City.3 Bill Jackson preserved this material carefully for decades but never shared it. Much later, the folder and its contents were entrusted to me.

  • St. Mark's, Capitol Hill History and Description of Its
    ST. MARK'S, CAPITOL HILL HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION OF ITS FABRIC, STAINED GLASS, AND OTHER NOTABLE FEATURES [Book update 2010 on-line text] [Winged Lion emblem] The Winged Lion of St. Mark on the title page was created in 1992 by John Lineberger, parishioner and graphic arts designer, who produced it as a new cover design for The Gospel According to St. Mark's, the parish newsletter since the 1960s. by Bert & Mary Cooper, Parish Historians 1 INTRODUCTION St. Mark's Episcopal Church on Capitol Hill is many things to its members and friends -- an urban parish attempting to stay in touch with its community and the times, a congregation of people seeking to make sense of their lives within a religious context, and a building that for many years has been a landmark in its neighborhood. In a time of rapid change and destruction of many of the physical features of the urban landscape, the mere survival of this late 19th century structure and its many beautiful artifacts is remarkable. But St. Mark's has been committed to more than just surviving in the physical sense. The congregation has insisted on making St. Mark's an institution that reflects the richness and diversity of life on Capitol Hill. This online text describes aspects of our architectural and artistic heritage that may be of interest to those who worship here as well as those who come to the church for other reasons. Many of the questions people have asked about the building, the windows, and other features of the church are answered in these pages.

  • The Integration of Episcopal Schools in the South
    FORCING PROGRESS: THE STRUGGLE TO INTEGRATE SOUTHERN EPISCOPAL SCHOOLS A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Wade H. Morris, Jr., B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. April 18, 2009 FORCING PROGRESS: THE STRUGGLE TO INTEGRATE SOUTHERN EPISCOPAL SCHOOLS Wade H. Morris, Jr., B.A. Mentor: William F. McDonald, Ph.D. ABSTRACT In 1955, the Episcopal Church challenged its congregants to stand up to an unjust social norm. In that year, the Episcopal Church called for the racial desegregation of Episcopal institutions: parishes, seminaries, and schools. Did Episcopalians live up to this challenge? Did the Episcopal Church translate its stated ideals into the harsher world of reality? Nowhere are these questions more clearly answered than with the integration of Episcopal schools. The story of Episcopal school integration provides a microcosm for the Episcopal Church’s effectiveness in persuading its laity (school trustees, parents, and alumni) to live up to Episcopalian ideals of social justice. This thesis examines the integration of seven Episcopal schools in the American South. The schools were chosen because each had a different relationship with the Episcopal Church. The available resources pertaining to integration varied from school to school. Board minutes, letters from parents, letters between administrators and trustees, newspaper articles, annual school reports, memoirs of school heads, and interviews all help answer an essential question: to what extent did the Episcopal Church (bishops, deans, rectors, and clergy serving as school administrators) push for integration? ii The research produced a consistent theme across each of the seven schools: the closer the ties that the school had to the Church, the more quickly the school integrated.
