There are challenges, to be sure, but they are positive ones, and the Board of Trustees has adopted the following as its ‘2030 vision’: 4 Annual Conference 2019 A rush for the bookstall ugust saw members of the Prayer Book from the Revd Adam Gaunt, Rector of Loftus-in- Society gather for our Annual Conference, Cleveland and Carlin How with Skinningrove, a once again at the Royal Agricultural Benefice in a very deprived area on Teeside. Against AUniversity in Cirencester. Although the weather fell all the odds, he and his Director of Music had set up below expectations, the talks were of a consistently a successful traditional choir consisting of children high standard, and were interspersed with Prayer Book worship in the university’s attractive chapel. The Conference opened with sung Evensong, with a sermon from the Revd Dr Nick Moore of Cranmer Hall Theological College, Durham. He preached on Psalm 78, being the Psalm set for the fifteenth evening (and the second-longest in the Psalter). The Psalm was said (rather than sung) in full during the service, with the canticles and responses sung by the congregation. On some previous occasions, when Conference-goers have included a number of musicians, we have been lucky enough to have an informal choir: this was not one of those years, but it is reassuring to note that a congregation sufficiently familiar with the tradition can still sing Evensong quite satisfactorily without choral support. After the service, the opening speaker was the Revd Canon Patrick Woodhouse, former Canon Precentor of Wells Cathedral and author of Life in the Psalms: Contemporary Meaning in Ancient Texts (2015), who spoke on the use of the Psalms in contemplative prayer. On the Friday morning, the Conference heard Professor John Goldingay speaks, as the Revd Dr Stephen Edmonds, Trustee, listens 5 from the local area, who were singing the Psalms to Anglican Chant (as well as the Prayer Book creed to Merbecke). Conference-goers were so impressed by his vision and enthusiasm that a spontaneous collection raised over £700 towards his organ restoration fund. He was followed by the Revd Professor John Goldingay, a former Principal of St John’s College, Nottingham, Professor Emeritus of Fuller Theological Seminary, California, and a prolific author on the Old Testament (including the Psalms). His address considered how Christians might understand the Psalms Gloucester Branch Chairman Richard Marlowe (L) thanks theologically. the Revd Adam Gaunt The after-dinner speaker on Friday was the Revd Fergus Butler-Gallie, author helping to make policy for regulating banks and of the best-selling A Field Guide to the English Clergy insurers; but—more relevantly to the theme of the (2018), curate of Liverpool Parish Church, and long- Conference!—is also an expert on the history of the time enthusiast for the Book of Common Prayer.

  • Praying the Liturgy of the Hours
    Praying the Liturgy of the Hours The Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office or the Work of God (Opus Dei), is a beautiful and ancient tradition in the Church marking the hours of each day and sanctifying the day with prayer. It is not reserved for clerics and religious (although they take vows to say it), but can also be prayed by the lay faithful. In fact, the Second Vatican Council highly encouraged the laity to “recite the divine office [especially Morning and Evening Prayer-the Major hours], either with the priests, or among themselves, or even individually” (Sacrosanctum Concilium, 100). The Hours are a meditative dialogue on the mystery of Christ, using scripture and prayer. The foundation of the prayer is simple – praying the Psalms – but in practicality can be difficult. If one chooses to purchase a physical breviary (the book that contains the Liturgy of the Hours, it can be challenging – especially if no one is there to show you what to do. However, after an initial introduction to praying the Liturgy of the Hours, it becomes much easier and soon it will be like clockwork. There are two main forms of the breviary. You can purchase a four-volume set entitled The Liturgy of the Hours from the Catholic Book Publishing. You can usually purchase for as low as $155. However, you can also purchase one volume at a time: This four-volume set contains prayers for all the hours of the day: Office of Readings (Major Hour); Lauds or Morning Prayer (Major Hour); Daytime Prayer (minor hour(s)-one or more of Terce (Midmorning), Sext (Midday), or None (Midafternoon); Vespers (Major Hour); and Compline or Night Prayer.

  • Milestones in Publishing the Spanish and Portuguese Prayer Book in London
    MILESTONES IN PUBLISHING THE SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE PRAYER BOOK IN LONDON By Dr Roy Shasha, Jerusalem – August 2020 Introduction The year 2020 marks the publication of the first new British edition of the Spanish and Portuguese prayer book in over 100 years. This achievement represents the culmination of many years of planning, a major re-editing of the text and the preparation of a new translation by a small body of dedicated professional staff and a larger number of equally dedicated volunteers. Therefore, this is perhaps an appropriate moment for us to stand back and view this achievement within its historical context. An excellent brief history of the printing of the Spanish and Portuguese prayer book was written by Hakham Gaster in the introduction to his edition of the prayer book, and the writer wishes to acknowledge his debt to this important piece of work. However, the intention and scope of this work is quite different to that of Dr Gaster in a number of respects. 1. We have attempted to list all Spanish and Portuguese prayer books planned, printed, or edited in London, including a number that were not authorised by the Mahamad and one that was written but not published. Also included are all the known Spanish translations of the text prepared in London. 2. Each volume seen has been described in a precise bibliographical fashion, and as far as possible not only reprints, but also bibliographical variants have been noted. 3. Each edition has been placed wherever possible in a historical context. A brief biography of each editor or translator has been included, together with information as to how the books were distributed.

  • Michaelmas -- the Festival of Courage
    Why do Waldorf Schools have Michaelmas-Festival of Courage? The Festivals Committee has realized that many of the parents at WSB ask this question. In response, we offer the following as a window to deeper understanding. MICHAELMAS -- THE FESTIVAL OF COURAGE …We live in a time of hard tests for humanity, of hard tests which must become still harder. We live in a time in which a whole host of old forms of civilization to which humankind still erroneously clings, are sinking into the abyss, a time in which the claim insistently arises that we must find our way to something new. Rudolf Steiner At autumn time, as the life forces of nature recede, turning toward a winter sleep, the inner life of the human soul is awakening. It is a time of conscious selfhood, a time when we celebrate the building and strengthening of our inner life. In many cultures, the autumn time marks the beginning of a new year. The forces of nature are transiting with the autumnal equinox, as the relationship of light and darkness changes the world around us. The equinox is for us a turning point, a change in the relation of light and darkness in the world around us. On September 29th the autumn festival traditionally known as Michaelmas is celebrated. This festival is named for the Archangel Michael, conqueror of the powers of darkness, the harvester of the deeds of human souls. It is at this time that the image of Michael with the dragon appears before us as a mighty imagination, challenging us to develop strong, brave, free wills, to overcome love of ease, anxiety and fear.

  • Anglican Worship and Sacramental Theology 1
    The Beauty of Holiness: Anglican Worship and Sacramental Theology 1 THE CONGRESS OF TRADITIONAL ANGLICANS June 1–4, 2011 - Victoria, BC, Canada An Address by The Reverend Canon Kenneth Gunn-Walberg, Ph.D. Rector of St. Mary’s, Wilmington, Delaware After Morning Prayer Friday in Ascensiontide, June 3, 2011 THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS: ANGLICAN WORSHIP AND SACRAMENTAL THEOLOGY When I was approached by Fr. Sinclair to make this presentation, he suggested that the conceptual framework of the lectures would be that they be positive presentations of traditional Anglican principles from both a biblical and historical perspective and in the light of the contemporary issues in contrast to traditional Anglicanism, especially as expressed in the Affirmation of St. Louis and in the 39 Articles. The rubrics attached to this paper were that Anglican worship should be examined in the light of contemporary liturgies, the Roman Rite, and the proposed revision of the Book of Common Prayer to bring it in line with Roman views. This perforce is a rather tall order; so let us begin. The late Pulitzer Prize winning poet W.H. Auden stated that the Episcopal Church “seems to have gone stark raving mad…And why? The Roman Catholics have had to start from scratch, and as any of them with a feeling for language will admit, they have made a cacophonous horror of the mass. Whereas we had the extraordinary good fortune in that our Prayer Book was composed at exactly the right historical moment. The English language had become more or less what it is today…but the ecclesiastics of the 16 th century still professed a feeling for the ritual and ceremonies which today we have almost entirely lost.” 1 While one might quibble somewhat with what he said, he certainly would have been more indignant had he witnessed me little more than a decade after his death celebrating the Eucharist before the Dean and Canons of St.
