The Eardley and Travers Family
CHAPTER FIVE THE EARDLEY AND TRAVERS FAMILY So far there has been no obvious connection with St Tudy. Let us focus on the Rector of St. Tudy that Julia Harrietta Cannan wrote to in 1921 (1), The Reverend Henry Edwin Eardley. Ancestry.Com. (29b) shows a Henry Edwin Eardley born Oct/Nov/Dec 1857 in Derby. Recorded in the 1861 census there is Henry E. Eardley, son of Edwin and Emma.He was born in 1858, in Litchurch, Derbyshire (29). At the age of 13 in 1871 he was still at Litchurch (29a). In 1881(29b&29bi) there was a student, Henry E. Eardley born 1858, attending the Theological College at St Mary’sIslington. The Crockford’sentry for Mr. Eardley tells us that in 1881 Reverend Eardley was Ordained and he took up work as Curate at Swanage from 1881 to 1884 (29ei). On February 20th he married Julia Mina Travers who was the daughter of the Rector of Swanage, the Reverend Robert Duncan Travers (30). Reverend Eardley was then a Private Chaplain from 1884 to 1887 (29ei). From 1886 to1891 he was Assoc. Sec. C.M.S. Committee, York (29ei). There is a census record of him visiting Wallingfen, Derbyshire during 1891 (29d). At the same time his wife Julia Mina was visiting Micklegate, York with Charlotte Mary Travers her sister and Violet Dorothy Eardley her daughter. The 1901 census (29di) shows Henry E. Eardley as residing as ‘head’of family at the St. John’sVicarage, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. It looks therefore as if he was the vicar of St. -
Considerations and Directions to the Clergy Regarding Marriage As Your
Considerations and Directions to the Clergy Regarding Marriage As your Bishop, I want to challenge you to reach out and engage people with God’s way of life—and especially now by celebrating marriage as God envisions it. To do so at this moment in our life together, I have worked with my Assisting Bishop, Frank Lyons, to develop these considerations and directions, which follow. Considerations The recent Supreme Court Decision regarding same-sex unions once again brings into focus the two ways: life or death. Following God’s way leads to life. Following our own selfish desires can lead only to death. While there is still time we must engage the culture and proclaim the way of life. Did you know that 85% of marriages in the United States occur within a religious context? Many people are searching for that religious context. Will we be ready to greet them with God’s claim for their lives? Do we challenge folks about their view of marriage? Society has changed its definition of “marriage” for the worse and has received Supreme Court recognition. But we the Church continue to proclaim God’s ordered prescription for humanity and the Grace of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Both ADOTS and the Anglican Church in North America are quite clear about our position on Holy Matrimony. Please review the ACNA College of Bishops Statement and resources. Now is the time. Biblical teaching, studies and sermons on Marriage to instruct and prepare all our people, young and old, is a must. It is important to review the following directions with our consistories and our congregations. -

Reflections on Canterbury
Office of the Diocesan Bishop The Right Reverend Charles Masters Box 1013 · Burlington · ON L7R 4L8 · Canada 29 January 2016 Reflections on Canterbury - Two weeks after Ever since I returned from Canterbury, arriving home Monday, January 18, I have been praying about and wanting to share with all of you in the Diocese a bit more information and some further reflections. My main goal is to thank all of you for your incredible prayer for the Primates, their families and the Provinces they each represented, and for all of us who were involved in these historic meetings. It was obvious to all that there was an incredible blanket of prayer covering all aspects of our time. Having that certainty in the midst of the times of tension and worry provided the rock solid conviction that the Lord Jesus was in charge, that he was hearing prayer, and that he was working to build his church. It was quite a week. Thank you for praying! The first thing that I want to say is that the week, January 11 to 16, was truly an extraordinary time. Expectations for this meeting hosted by the Archbishop of Canterbury at the Canterbury Cathedral, where all the primates stayed at the Canterbury Lodge, were through the roof. Before heading to Canterbury, a friend and fellow bishop who loves history suggested that these meetings might be the most significant since the Council of Whitby – which was quite a while ago (664 AD). The future of the Anglican Communion, if there is to be one, seemed in everyone's mind to be at stake. -

Morris King Thompson, Jr
The Holy Eucharist with The Ordination and Consecration of Morris King Thompson, Jr. As a Bishop in the Church of God and Eleventh Bishop of Louisiana Saturday, May 8, 2010 10:00 AM Christ Church Cathedral New Orleans, Louisiana The People of God and Their Bishop In Christianity’s early centuries, bishops presided over urban churches, functioning as pastors to the Christians of their city and the surrounding countryside. Everyone came into the city on Sunday to participate in the urban liturgy as presided over by the local bishop. These bishops were also our chief theologians, reflecting on the faith in the context of their people’s lives and experiences. It was not until between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries that the parish priest became the usual person to preside over the Eucharistic assembly. The Greek word episcopacy (επισϰοπή) provides the origin of the word “episcopal.” In Greek, the word is related to the idea of visitation, specifically a divine revelation. It came to mean “overseer.” In English, the word means “of or relating to bishops.” In our scriptures, “overseer” was used somewhat interchangeably with the word “elder” (πϱϵσβυτέϱουϛ, presbyteros, from which comes the word priest), for one who leads the fledgling Christian community and holds to sound doctrine despite the danger presented by false teachers (see I Timothy 3:1-7, II Timothy 1:6-10, Titus 1:5-9 and I Peter 5:1-11). The images of a bishop in our Book of Common Prayer are derived from this history. As you will hear in this ordination liturgy, the bishop is understood to be our chief priest and presider of the diocese as well as its chief pastor. -
