From the Dean
Grace Episcopal Cathedral June 2018 Topeka, Kansas Vol. 92, No. 6 From the Dean. An Easter Epiphany Dear Friends, By the time you read this last Chimes message from me, I will have done my last service at Grace and will, in fact, be on vacation before starting a new part- time job as interim pastor at St. Paul’s in Leavenworth while they are searching for a new rector. I’ll be working four days a week, including Sundays and have a letter of agreement for 12 months. This will give me time to think through some things and make important decisions Farewell, about where I want to be and what I want to do for the next several years Dean Lipscomb of my life. So, there’s that. And then, there’s this. It has been almost a year since Robyn’s death, and several months of sickness before that. In fact, it was Good Friday, 2017 that we were given the diagnosis of Stage 4 lung and bone cancer and told nothing could be done. I know, as I leave this community that walked through that time with me, many of you are concerned about how I am going to get along. So, I want to tell you a story that I’ve shared with several small groups, about what happened to me on Easter Sunday. As I said, Good Friday last year, Robyn was diagnosed with terminal continued on page 2 From the Dean Steve Lipscomb named “Dean Emeritus” cancer, after being treated the prior two months for what we (and the Dean Steve Lipscomb was honored on Pentecost with the title of Dean doctors) thought was a persistent Emeritus at Grace Cathedral. -

The Venerable Bede Ecclesiastical History of England (731 A.D.)1
1 Primary Source 3.2 THE VENERABLE BEDE ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY OF ENGLAND (731 A.D.)1 The Anglo-Saxon monk and author, known to posterity as the Venerable Bede (c. 672– 735), was apparently a deeply spiritual man described as constantly praising God, even at the last moments of his life, when he could scarcely breathe. A learned scholar with broad knowledge of ancient and early medieval theology and secular writings, he wrote a huge number of works on theology, biblical commentary, the lives of saints, and secular and religious history. His most famous work, excerpted here, recounts the historical development of Britain with a focus on the vibrant evolution of the church. The passage below concerns the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons from paganism to Christianity. Key themes are the care with which missionaries sought to transform customs without giving offense, Christian humility, and how the converts’ belief in miracles wrought in the name of Christ facilitated their conversion.

BOOK I CHAPTER XVII How Germanus the Bishop,2 sailing into Britain with Lupus,3 first quelled the tempest of the sea, and afterwards that of the Pelagians, by Divine power. [429 A.D.] Some few years before their arrival, the Pelagian heresy,4 brought over by Agricola, the son of Severianus, a Pelagian bishop, had corrupted with its foul taint the faith of the Britons. But whereas they absolutely refused to embrace that perverse doctrine, and blaspheme the grace of Christ, yet were not able of themselves to confute the subtilty of the unholy belief by force of argument, they bethought them of wholesome counsels and determined to crave aid of the Gallican5 prelates in that spiritual warfare. -

This study is meant to illuminate the lives of the women in the Anglo-Norman chronicles at every stage of life. While many modern books have addressed medieval women, they have attempted to deal with women more generally, looking at many areas and societies over hundreds of years. Other modern historians have focused on a few select women using evidence from the same Anglo-Norman chronicles used in this study. -
How Lyminge Parish Church Acquired an Invented Dedication
ANTIQUARIANS, VICTORIAN PARSONS AND RE-WRITING THE PAST: HOW LYMINGE PARISH CHURCH ACQUIRED AN INVENTED DEDICATION ROBERT BALDWIN For more than a century, the residents of Lyminge, on the North Downs in East Kent, have taken for granted that the parish church is dedicated to St Mary and St Ethelburga. Yet for many centuries before that, it was known as the church of St Mary and St Eadburg. The dedication to St Mary, the Virgin, is ancient and straightforward to explain, for it appears in the earliest of the surviving charters forLyminge dated probably to 697. 1 The second part of the dedication, whether this is correctly St Ethelburga or St Eadburg, is also likely to pre-date the Norman Conquest for both are clearly Anglo-Saxon names. But the uncertainty over the dedication invites investigation to understand who the patron saint actually is and the cause of the change, which is an unusual event by any standards. At first sight, St Ethelburga is apparently also easy to explain. Although there were a number of St Ethelburgas, the one traditionally connected with Lyminge was Queen LEthelburh2, daughter of LEthelberht I, King of Kent, and widow of Edwin, King of Northumbria. The story of her marriage to Edwin, his conversion to Christianity and the beginning of the conversion of Northumbria in the 620s was recorded by Bede, writing around a century later.3 AfterEdwin's death in battle in 633, Bede noted that LEthelburh returned to Kent where her brother Eadbald had become king. Other sources4 recounted that the king allowed his sister to retire to his estate at Lyminge where she established a 'minster'5 and subsequently died in 647.6 A dedication to St Ethelburga makes sense in the historical context ofLyminge. -

Religious Tourism in Areas of Environmental Value in Poland
EKONOMIA I ŚRODOWISKO • 2 (61) • 2017 Franciszek MRÓZ RELIGIOUS TOURISM IN AREAS OF ENVIRONMENTAL VALUE IN POLAND Franciszek Mróz, PhD – Pedagogical University of Cracow Correspondence address: Institute of Geography ul. Podchorazych 2; 30-084 Krakow e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRCT: The study presents pilgrimage sites located in environmentally valuable areas – the areas subject to two forms of nature protection in Poland, i.e. national parks and natural landscape parks. The purpose of the paper is to present, in quantitative terms, shrines in the protected areas of Poland and to analyse the scale and forms of tourism relating to these sites. The subject of the research includes only shrines of the Roman Catholic Church. A descriptive-analytic method, a dynamic-com- parative method, as well as statistical methods were used to present the study results. Over 70 of more than 830 shrines that operate in Poland nowadays are located in areas of nature protected by legislation. At present, in the area of nine Polish national parks, there are twelve shrines and pilgrimage sites that are frequently visited by pilgrims and tourists traveling for religious or reli- gious and cognitive reasons. Nowadays, in the area of Polish natural landscape parks (with buffer zones), there are more than 60 shrines.

Bede and the Augustine's Oak Conferences
volume 2 - 2006 Bede and the Augustine’s Oak conferences: implications for Anglo-British ecclesiastical interaction in early Anglo-Saxon England Martin Grimmer Abstract In Bede’s representation of relations between the British church and the Roman church of the Anglo-Saxons, one of the defining events concerns Augustine of Canterbury’s two meetings, c 602-604, with a group of British bishops at ‘Augustine’s Oak’ on the border of the West Saxons and the Hwicce. The Augustine’s Oak conferences are the first of Bede’s ecclesiastical ‘set pieces’ which marshal Roman against British and Irish Columban practice. Bede is the only source for these meetings, and because of his distance both in time and in location from the events, his description has been labelled as an ‘ecclesiastical saga’ of uncertain authenticity. However, there are indications that Bede’s account was not simply an imaginative reconstruction. Bede appears to have relied on both Anglo-Saxon and British sources in his rendering of the meetings. Although some of the details may be dubious, he reveals a plausible picture of ecclesiastical interaction between Anglo-Saxons and Britons, which saw the Britons branded as schismatic by the Roman church, and which memorialised a pattern of distrust and isolation. The aim of this paper is to analyse Bede’s presentation of the events surrounding the Augustine’s Oak conferences and the implications for Anglo- British ecclesiastical interaction during the early Anglo-Saxon period. In Bede’s representation of relations between the British church and the Roman church of the Anglo-Saxons, one of the defining events concerns Augustine of Canterbury’s two meetings, c 602-604, with a group of British bishops at a place called Augustine’s Oak. -

Chapter 4 the Anglian Period: the Royal Ladies of Castor [1]
Chapter 4 The Anglian Period: The Royal Ladies of Castor [1] St. Kyneburgha of Castor: from Mercian princess to Northumbrian queen Castor Parish Church stands upon an escarpment, which has been occupied from at least the Roman period. It bears a unique dedication to the seventh-century saint, Kyneburgha or Cyneburh, a Mercian princess and erstwhile queen of Northumbria who, according to local tradition, retired from court in order to establish a nunnery on the site of an abandoned early fourth-century villa. Reliable, near-contemporary information relating to Kyneburgha is limited to a single reference in Venerable Bede’s Historia Ecclesiastica (c. 731), in which she was described as the sister of Peada, King of the Middle Angles, and the wife of Alhfrith, a Christian prince of Northumbria [2]. From this statement we may deduce that she was also the daughter of the unrepentant heathen king, Penda of Mercia (c. 626-c. 655), and his consort, Cynewise, whose stronghold was in the Tamworth area of the Trent Valley [3]. All subsequent references to Kyneburgha are either of post-Conquest date or survive only in the form of twelfth-century copies and, consequently, are much less trustworthy [4]. Nor are there any archaeological finds to substantiate Kyneburgha’s relationship with the Castor site. However, by examining all of the available sources, in conjunction with place-name and sculptural evidence, it may be possible to gain an insight into the life and times of this remarkable lady. Kyneburgha was born during an era when England was ruled by a few aristocratic families, both Christian and pagan, who intermarried in attempts to form alliances and to found dynasties in rival provinces. -
