And we pray for the repose of the souls of the departed and for all those we remember now, silently or aloud. Especially the recently departed, Daniel Brenton; and those whose year’s mind falls this week: John Alden Lloyd Hyde (8/22), in 1919, the Rev. Charles F. Beattie, priest & rector, Mildred Hooker Duncan, and Robert Violette (8/23), in 1910, Sarah Titus Zabriskie, who in 1893 donated $100,000 toward the building of the Zabriskie Memorial Church in memory of her late mother, Sarah Jane Zabriskie (8/25); for the departed members of the Guild of All Souls; for the departed Sisters & Associates of the Holy Nativity; and for all those who have died in the coronavirus pandemic.

Music Notes The opening voluntary is dedicated to a priest who can sing apparently forever via cyclical breathing; one note, E-flat, is sustained throughout the entire variation, during which a cycle of a full day of services is heard, encompassing fragments of different hymns and an anthem at Evensong. Today’s opening hymn, “When morning gilds the skies,” emerges from the initial night-time texture and its hymn “Creator of the stars of night.” The bicycle was Elgar’s favorite mode of transportation. The music ends as it began (a clear night with shooting stars), such that on an “endless loop” it could be repeated eternally, the held note also being God’s constancy. The closing voluntary honors a marathon runner and St. George’s School alumnus who was godfather to the composer’s daughter, and whose uncle was a former warden of the parish. Both are from a set of variations based on stained glass windows at Hereford Cathedral, honoring the Herefordshire priest and author Thomas Traherne (1636-1674). Missa Zabriskie, a congregational Mass setting based on the hymn Sweet Sacrament Divine by The Rev. Francis Stanfield, is dedicated to The People of The Zabriskie Memorial Church of Saint John the Evangelist, Newport, Rhode Island (Past, Present, and Future). Stanfield was an English priest who worked in London’s Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Westminster. He published over a dozen devotional hymns including one set to a tune written in about 1878 by Edward Elgar, another famous Roman Catholic composer. Stanfield’s father, the prominent marine painter Clarkson Frederick Stanfield, was named for the slave trade abolitionist Thomas Clarkson and was a friend of Charles Dickens. The devout Stanfields were known not just for brilliance in their respective art-forms but also for their “personal simplicity and modesty.” The organ part of the Gloria contains two hymns for Maundy Thursday: Pange Lingua and Ubi caritas. It’s fun to say Missa Zabriskie out loud (try it), honoring the namesake parishioner who caused our present building and organ to be built in 1894 at a time when a fledgling nineteen-year old congregation in financial straits might have perished. The final hymn is sung to several different tunes, among them Beecher, Hyfrydol and Blaenwern. The Blaenwern tune, named after a farm in Wales known to its composer, is that most commonly sung in England today, and has been sung at both of the recent royal weddings. The tune gained popularity in America through Billy Graham crusades when it was sung to the text “What a Friend we have in Jesus.” Copyright Notices: Hymns reproduced from The Hymnal 1982 are copyright The Church Pension Fund, reproduced by permission of the Rite Song License of the Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island.

The Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost The Mass setting today is Missa Zabriskie by Peter Stoltzfus Berton (born 1968). Voluntary A cycle, from Hereford Variations Peter Stoltzfus Berton The People stand at the sound of the bell for the entrance of the Sacred Ministers into the church. Entrance Hymn When morning gilds the skies 1 Opening Acclamation Collect for Purity Almighty God, unto whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love thee, and worthily magnify thy holy Name, through Christ our Lord. People Summary of the Law Hear what our Lord Jesus Christ saith: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Kyrie 2 Gloria Celebrant Glory be to God on high, 3 Collect of the Day Celebrant The Lord be with you. People And with thy spirit. Celebrant Let us pray. Grant, we beseech thee, merciful God, that thy Church, being gathered together in unity by thy Holy Spirit, may manifest thy power among all peoples, to the glory of thy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. People Old Testament (sitting) Joshua 24:1-2a, 14-18 And Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God. And Joshua said unto all the people, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the Lord. And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the Lord, to serve other gods; For the Lord our God, he it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and which did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the people through whom we passed: And the Lord drave out from before us all the people, even the Amorites which dwelt in the land: therefore will we also serve the Lord; for he is our God. Reader The word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God. Psalm 34:15-22 Anglican Chant by Ivor Atkins (1869-1953) 15.

These conclusions have been reached through independent experiments not related to educational work in foreign countries. While sojourning in Athens I had the pleasure of visiting the best schools, both public and private, and found the reading especially spirited. I examined the books in use and found the regular reading- books to consist of the classic tales of the country, the stories of Herakles, Theseus, Perseus, and so forth, in the reader succeeding the primer, and the stories of Odysseus, or Ulysses, as we commonly call him, following as a third book, answering to our second or third reader.

HYMN OF THE WEEK: Thou Whose Almighty Word… chosen by Gwen B. As a child, Gwen won a scholarship to Horsham High School, but tragically her brother died in an accident, and the family relocated to Surrey for a fresh start. So Gwen went to Reigate County School, and was selected, as a first year student, to sing in the school choir. Gwen has fond memories of singing the school hymn - Thou Whose Almighty Word – and in particular how the very good but somewhat highbrow choir mistress insisted on the correct intonation of the final line “Let there be light!” Those words have stuck in Gwen’s mind ever since, and hence it is her choice for our Gradual Hymn today.

  • The Church's Prayer for the Dead
    The Church’s Prayer for the Dead The Holy Orthodox Church, like a concerned mother, daily, at every divine service, offers up prayers for all her children who have departed for the land of eternity. Thus, at the midnight service troparia and prayers for the departed are read, and they are commemorated at its concluding ektenia. This is so also at compline. At matins and vespers the departed are remembered by name at the Augmented Ektenia, "Have mercy on us, O God..." They are commemorated three times during the Liturgy: at the Proskomedia, at the ektenia following the Gospel, and after the consecration of the Precious Gifts when "Meet it is in truth . ." is sung. Furthermore, one day of the week is set aside for prayers for the dead -Saturday, on which it is customary to have a service for the dead, unless it coincides with a feast, if such is to be served on that day. The Third Day We commemorate the dead on the third day firstly, because those who have departed had been baptized in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the One God in three Persons, and had kept the Orthodox faith they received at holy baptism; secondly, because they preserved the three virtues which form the foundation of our salvation, namely: faith, hope and love; thirdly, because man's being possesses three internal powers—reason, emotion and desire—by which we all have transgressed. And since man's actions manifest themselves in three ways—by deed, word, and thought—by our commemoration on the third day we entreat the Holy Trinity to forgive the departed all transgressions committed by the three above-mentioned powers and actions.

  • Christian Burial Preparation
    CHRISTIAN BURIAL PREPARATION CONTENTS Concerning Christian Burial 4 When Death is Imminent 5 Call the Priest Last Rites Preparation Before Death 6 Legal/Financial Selecting a Mortuary or Cremation Society Choosing a Place for Burial Planning a Funeral 7 Definitions Vigil at the Mortuary Burial from the Church The Presence of the Body The Holy Eucharist for the Departed The Community of Faith If a Eulogy is Desired Flowers Memorial Gift Music Clergy Receptions 12 Scripture Lessons 13 3 Concerning Christian Burial Physical death will come to all of us, perhaps suddenly, perhaps following a long illness, perhaps at the end of the natural course of life; but it will come. As Christians, we need not be afraid of death, of talking about it or preparing for it. Throughout the Christian Year, we are reminded time and time again of the uncertainty of life and, at the same time the certainty of Christ’s power over the final enemy, death. During Advent, we recall the story of the Bridegroom who “Comes like a thief in the night,” having encour- aged us to be ready with lamps lit. On Ash Wednesday, we are signed with ashes on our foreheads with the words, “Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.” As we celebrate the Resurrection of Christ, we re- peat the words from St. Paul, “Christ being raised from the dead will never die again. Death no longer has dominion over Him… So also consider your- selves dead to sin and alive to God in Jesus Christ our Lord,” Jesus tells His disciples, “I go to prepare a place for you… that where I am you might be also.” To be a responsible, faithful Christian is to be ready, always prepared to live in Christ now and be ready for the life to come.

  • Chapter on History of the Otherworld
    PERCEPTIONS OF ANNWN: THE OTHERWORLD IN THE FOUR BRANCHES OF THE MABINOGI Rhian Rees MA Celtic Studies Dissertation Department of Welsh and Bilingual Studies Supervisor: Dr Jane Cartwright University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Lampeter 2012 2 ABSTRACT There is little description or positive information about the realm of Annwn in the Four Branches, and relatively few publications have explored the Otherworld in the Mabinogi in any depth. The redactor presumably did not deem such detail necessary since in his time the Otherworld was a place familiar to his audience from many other stories and folk-tales which have not survived to inform our own times. The objective of this thesis, therefore, is to establish the perceived location of the Celtic Otherworld, its nature and topography, and to obtain descriptions of its people, buildings and animals and any distinctive objects or characteristics pertaining to it. The ways in which Annwn influences each of the Four Branches are also considered. Some sketchy evidence is available in Welsh poetry, mostly various descriptive names reflecting different aspects of Annwn, but for more detailed information it is necessary to trawl the waters of early Irish literature. The Irish poems and stories give much fuller particulars of all characteristics of the Celtic Otherworld, though they do suggest that there was more than one such other world. Some parallels from Norse literature and the Lais of Marie de France also reinforce certain themes of this thesis, such as magical tumuli and magical bags and

In a small book on The Byzantine Empire, written in 1925, Norman Baynes placed at the head of one chapter a quotation from Benjamin Franklin: “Nothing in life is certain but death and taxes.” More than any other scholar, it was Baynes who made Byzantium exciting for us, and, with Byzantium, the thought world of late antique Christianity. But Baynes was a man of his age. The chapter dealt with taxes, not with death. It is only comparatively recently that death has attracted the attention of historians of late antiquity and the Middle Ages.2 As a result of the careful study of * The initial research on the themes treated in these lectures was undertaken in Munich, where I owed to the generosity and care of the Carl Friedrich von Siemens Stiftung of Munich a much-needed opportunity to work in research libraries of unrivalled richness and to experience in them the kindness and interest of so many scholars connected both with the University of Munich and with the Monu- menta Germaniae Historica.
