Foreword In one of the prayers in the Book of Common Prayer we pray: “Almighty God, by your Holy Spirit you have made us one with your saints in heaven and on earth: Grant that in our earthly pilgrimage we may always be supported by this fellowship of love and prayer.” This fellowship of love and prayer is the communion of saints affirmed in the Apostles’ Creed. Over the years, Lesser Feasts and Fasts has helped the Church grow in appreciation of this communion. With each successive General Convention more names have been added to the calendar. At the same time, questions have been raised regarding some of the biographies, choices of scripture, and composition of the Collects. During my term as Presiding Bishop, I therefore asked the Standing Commission on Liturgy and Music to undertake a review and revision of Lesser Feasts and Fasts, and to consider anew each entry in the existing Calendar of Saints, alongside any proposed new commemorations. To that end, a committee of the Commission was established. Holy Women, Holy Men: Celebrating the Saints is the fruit of the committee’s careful and painstaking work. Holy Women, Holy Men: Celebrating the Saints seeks to expand the worshiping community’s awareness of the communion of saints, and to give increased expression to the many and diverse ways in which Christ, through the agency of the Holy Spirit, has been present in the lives of men and women across the ages, just as Christ continues to be present in our own day. Faced with circumstances most often very different from our own, these courageous souls bore witness Copyright © 2010 vii The Church Pension Fund. For review and trial use only. to Christ’s death-defying love, in service, in holiness of life, and in challenge to existing practices and perspectives within both the Church and society. The men and women commemorated in the Calendar are not simply examples of faithfulness to inspire us: they are active in their love and prayer. They are companions in the Spirit able to support and encourage us as we seek to be faithful in our own day. Again, the Prayer Book invites us to pray, “O God, the King of saints, we praise and glorify your holy Name for all your servants who have finished their course in your faith and fear: for the blessed Virgin Mary; for the holy patriarchs, prophets, apostles, and martyrs; and for all your other righteous servants, known to us and unknown; and we pray that, encouraged by their example, aided by their prayers, and strengthened by their fellowship, we also may be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light.” It is my hope that Holy Women, Holy Men: Celebrating the Saints, with its expanded Calendar of commemorations, will deepen and enrich our congregations’ awareness and appreciation of the Spirit’s freedom to indwell human life and render it revelatory of Christ’s reconciling love Frank T. Griswold Twenty-Fifth Presiding Bishop viii Copyright © 2010 The Church Pension Fund. For review and trial use only. Preface “ There the Lord will permit us, so far as possible, to gather together in joy and gladness to celebrate the day of his martyrdom as a birthday, in memory of those athletes who have gone before, and to train and make ready those who are to come hereafter.” (Martyrdom of Polycarp, Bishop of Smyrna, A.D.156) From its earliest days the Church has rejoiced to recognize and commemorate those faithful departed who were extraordinary or even heroic servants of God and of God’s people for the sake, and after the example, of their Savior Jesus Christ. By this recognition and commemoration, their devoted service endures in the Spirit, even as their example and fellowship continue to nurture the pilgrim Church on its way to God. R Holy Women, Holy Men: Celebrating the Saints marks a further stage in the recovery within the Episcopal Church of the liturgical commemoration of the saints. The first English Book of Common Prayer 1549( ) retained a small number of the many feasts contained in the Calendar of the Sarum Missal. All but one of these were major Holy Days directly linked to the New Testament; no post-Biblical saints were included. The 1662 Prayer Book, which Anglicans living in the American colonies used in the Copyright © 2010 ix The Church Pension Fund. For review and trial use only. decades preceding independence, listed the names of sixty-seven saints in its Calendar, but made no provision for their liturgical commemoration. The first American Book of Common Prayer (1789) listed no minor Holy Days (lesser feasts) in its Calendar, and this continued to be the case in the 1892 and 1928 Prayer Books. Only in 1964 did things change. In that year General Convention approved the inclusion in the Calendar of more than a hundred saints’ days with liturgical propers to facilitate their commemoration in the Church’s worship. Since then the number of saints listed in the Calendar has gradually increased, and as a consequence Lesser Feasts and Fasts has been revised every three years to take account of these additions. In 2003 General Convention called for a wide-ranging revision of Lesser Feasts and Fasts, a revision ample enough “to reflect our increasing awareness of the ministry of all the people of God and of the cultural diversity of the Episcopal Church, of the wider Anglican Communion, of our ecumenical partners, and of our lively experience of sainthood in local communities.” Several years of extensive study and consultation led to the submission of Holy Women, Holy Men: Celebrating the Saints which was approved for trial use by General Convention in July 2009. None of the commemorations listed in Lesser Feasts and Fasts has been omitted, and just over a hundred new commemorations have been added (almost identical to the number added in 1964). The writer of the Letter to the Hebrews said: “Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith” (Heb.12:1-2a). The greatly enriched Calendar contained within these covers gives flesh-and-blood reality to that host of witnesses which is not restricted by ordained status, denomination, gender, culture, or professional calling. The more faithfully this Calendar is observed, the more intimately will we be introduced to an extraordinary array of men and women who, like us, were all created by the Father, all baptized into the Son, and all empowered by the Spirit for ministry in the most diverse of settings and circumstances. In these saints we encounter not models of absolute perfection but men and women whose lives, with all their diversity of gifts and x Copyright © 2010 The Church Pension Fund.

May we take heart as we realize that, in spite of their failings and ours, we are all alike redeemed sinners called to be saints, those in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Cor.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • The Use of Metonymic Principles in Presentation of Battle Scenes In
    Kostyantyn Gulyy 1 THE LINGUOPOETIC USE OF THE METONYMIC PRINCIPLE IN THE PRESENTATION OF BATTLE SCENES IN BEOWULF 1. Introduction The aspectual and thematic diversity of existing research works on Beowulf is well-known. This paper presents yet another distinctive trait of the poem’s text. In Anglo-American scholarly literature, the area to which this research work belongs is generally known as poetic diction . The essence of this research area, however, is arguably better represented by the term lingu- opoetics used in Central and Eastern European works. Linguopoetics can be loosely defined as the features of the language of a literary work that reflect the world outlook and the aesthetic-philosophical conceptions and artistic vision pertaining to a particular author, a literary school or even a whole lit- erary epoch. A stricter definition still continues to be a task of theoreticians. The current state of fundamental research in the field is still rather at the phase described by Akhmanova and Zadornova decades ago: “Linguopoetics 1 Kostyantyn Gulyy specialises in linguistic approaches to literary poetics: historical and comparative aspects. Kazimierz Wielki University, Bydgoszcz, Poland; email: [email protected]. Linguistics Applied vol. 4 (2011), pp. 94-108 Kostyantyn Gulyy, The linguopoetic use of the metonymic principle in the presentation of battle scenes in “Beowulf” The linguopoetic use of the metonymic principle... as a separate linguistic discipline still presents a tangle of different strains whose natural relationship is often obscured by the variety of materials and incompatibility of approaches” (Akhmanova and Zadornova 1977: 250). The specific purpose of this study is to analyze the metonymic principle underly- ing the verbal presentation of a number of battle scenes in Beowulf .

  • About Absalom Jones Priest 1818
    The Reverend Absalom Jones November 7, 1746 – February 13, 1818 The life and legacy of The Reverend Absalom Jones, first African American priest of The Episcopal Church is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, his faith, and his commitment to the causes of freedom, justice and self-determination. Jones was born into slavery in Sussex County, Delaware on November 6, 1746. During the 72 years of his life, he grew to become one of the foremost leaders among persons of African descent during the post-revolutionary period. In his younger years in Delaware, Absalom sought help to learn to read. When he was 16, his owner Benjamin Wynkoop brought him to Philadelphia where he served as a clerk and handyman in a retail store. He was able to work for himself in the evenings and keep his earnings. He also briefly attended a school run by the Quakers where he learned mathematics and handwriting. In 1770, he married Mary Thomas and purchased her freedom. It was until 1784 that he obtained his own freedom through manumission. He also owned several properties. During this period, he met Richard Allen, who became a life-long friend. In 1787, they organized the Free African Society as a social, political and humanitarian organization helping widows and orphans and assisting in sick relief and burial expenses. Jones and Allen were also lay preachers at St. George’s Methodist Episcopal Church, Philadelphia, PA where their evangelistic efforts met with great success and their congregation multiplied ten-fold. As a result, racial tensions flared and ultimately they led an historic walk out from St.

  • ROMAN EMPERORS in POPULAR JARGON: SEARCHING for CONTEMPORARY NICKNAMES (1)1 by CHRISTER BRUUN
    ROMAN EMPERORS IN POPULAR JARGON: SEARCHING FOR CONTEMPORARY NICKNAMES (1)1 By CHRISTER BRUUN Popular culture and opposite views of the emperor How was the reigning Emperor regarded by his subjects, above all by the common people? As is well known, genuine popular sentiments and feelings in antiquity are not easy to uncover. This is why I shall start with a quote from a recent work by Tessa Watt on English 16th-century 'popular culture': "There are undoubtedly certain sources which can bring us closer to ordinary people as cultural 'creators' rather than as creative 'consumers'. Historians are paying increasing attention to records of slanderous rhymes, skimmingtons and other ritualized protests of festivities which show people using established symbols in a resourceful way.,,2 The ancient historian cannot use the same kind of sources, for instance large numbers of cheap prints, as the early modern historian can. 3 But we should try to identify related forms of 'popular culture'. The question of the Roman Emperor's popularity might appear to be a moot one in some people's view. Someone could argue that in a highly 1 TIlls study contains a reworking of only part of my presentation at the workshop in Rome.

These two chapters contain issues different from those discussed here, which makes it feasible to create the di vision.

These turn overs can be identified by checking individuals of the same name, parentage and indenture/registration date within the preceding 7-10 years. (While the date of such turn overs, when reported in the original record, is recorded in an underlying database, the first indenture/registration date is repeated in this index at each of an apprentice’s subsequent turn overs to aid identification.) • Two dates are usually available for each apprenticeship record, those of the apprenticeship indenture and of registration, the latter usually within a year of the former: where both dates are recorded only the indenture date has been reproduced below. • Where an apprenticeship was cancelled or not completed ‘X’ follows the date: reasons for such cancellations vary from death, abscondment, voluntary withdrawal, enlistment or ejection.

  • 1 Christ Episcopal Church Adult Formation 2020 Summer
    Christ Episcopal Church Adult Formation 2020 Summer Foundations Course 2020 Guidance from Christians in the midst of Pandemic July 6, 2020 The poet who launched a reform On Sunday, July 14, 1833, the Rev. John Keble (image below), Anglican priest and Professor of Poetry at Oxford University, preached a sermon that accused Parliament of interfering in the internal life of the Church of Ireland (the Anglican Church in Ireland) by reducing its dioceses from 22 to 12 with no consultation of church leaders. Keble’s sermon ignited a storm of controversy for he claimed that the life of the church was not to be determined by the ignorance of public opinion or the whims of Parliament but rather by the gospel of Jesus Christ and the teaching and practices of early Christians – what he called “the apostolic faith.” For English Anglicans who viewed the church as one more agency of the Crown and its government, Keble’s sermon – widely published the moment it ended – gained him violent criticism from many and robust affirmation from others. It was his sermon that led to the emergence of the Oxford Movement – a reform movement in Anglican faith and life. This movement sought to recover “the apostolic faith” by restoring the teaching and practices of early and medieval English Christianity. They viewed the 16th c. reformation as but one moment of reform in the long history of Anglican spirituality: not a tragic break. They criticized the Rationalism that had left Christian faith and life bereft of the mystery of God and God’s presence in the creation and the sacramental life of Christians.
