Minutes1 Taken in the Motherhouse of the Poor School Sisters on the Anger in Munich, April 22, 1852, 6 p.m. Narrator 1: At noon on April 21, the archbishop’s secretary2 asked what time the archbishop could meet with the venerable mother superior,3 the reverend confessor,4 and all the professed sisters because he had a public announcement to make. Reverend Mother set the time for 5:30 p.m. Narrator 2: On April 22 at 4:45 p.m., the secretary came to inspect the room prepared for the meeting and was taken to the chapter room that had been arranged simply for the occasion. The secretary found it too gloomy and said that we had such beautiful rooms. Why could we not have chosen another? We responded that we had only one other room but it was much smaller. He could look at it, but it would no longer be heated and so he left it at that. At 5:45 p.m., Archbishop Karl August [von Reisach] came with Doctor [Friedrich] Windischmann, Vicar General. They were met at the entrance by the Reverend Confessor, Reverend Mother, and two sisters and then by all the professed sisters who were in the convent corridor. Narrator 1: Upon his arrival in the room, the archbishop began: Archbishop: “Recent events5 make it my duty in conscience, as your bishop, to direct my attention to your institute, which still does not have church approval.

  • History of the Church of the Holy Cross
    History of The Church of the Holy Cross Prior to the formation of an organized and separate place of worship, African American Episcopalians in Pittsburgh belonged to their local church. In the late 1800’s, several Blacks, concerned about the social isolation of their children and the segregated religious setting they experienced, began to push for the establishment of a separate mission to serve their needs. Among those who were instrumental in this effort was Sadie B. Hamilton, a graduate of Wilberforce University and a life-long Episcopalian. In response to this request in 1875, Bishop John Barrett Kerfoot (1816-1881) of the Diocese of Pittsburgh brought the Reverend W. F. Floyd to Pittsburgh to establish a mission among the “colored people” of this community. As a result of this effort, St. Cyprian’s Mission was established and met in Trinity Church parish house. In December 1877, The Reverend W. F. Floyd transferred to Cincinnati. On January 15, 1878, The Reverend William Wilson was ordained to the Priesthood in Trinity Church by Bishop Kerfoot and placed in charge of St. Cyprian’s Mission, which held services in a building on Wylie Avenue in Pittsburgh’s Hill District. The Reverend Wilson left Pittsburgh in 1897 and St. Cyprian’s Mission was closed by Bishop Cortlandt Whitehead (1882-1922). The mission was reopened at the Church Army Headquarters under Captain William B. Anderson and Captain G. P. Hance (d.1954), who later became Brother Hance, founder of St. Barnabas Home. The mission was moved to a storeroom at the corner of Centre Avenue and Roberts Streets in the Hill District where Captain Anderson and Oliver G.

    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF EVENING PRAYER IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS HOLINESS POPE BENEDICT XVI AND HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY Friday 17 September 2010 6.15 pm THE COLLEGIATE CHURCH OF ST PETER IN WESTMINSTER Westminster Abbey’s recorded history can be traced back well over a thousand years. Dunstan, Bishop of London, brought a community of Benedictine monks here around 960 AD and a century later King Edward established his palace nearby and extended his patronage to the neighbouring monastery. He built for it a great stone church in the Romanesque style which was consecrated on 28 December 1065. The Abbey was dedicated to St Peter, and the story that the Apostle himself consecrated the church is a tradition of eleventh-century origin. King Edward died in January 1066 and was buried in front of the new high altar. When Duke William of Normandy (William I) arrived in London after his victory at the Battle of Hastings he chose to be crowned in Westminster Abbey, on Christmas Day 1066. The Abbey has been the coronation church ever since. The Benedictine monastery flourished owing to a combination of royal patronage, extensive estates, and the presence of the shrine of St Edward the Confessor (King Edward had been canonised in 1161). Westminster’s prestige and influence among English religious houses was further enhanced in 1222 when papal judges confirmed that the monastery was exempt from English ecclesiastical jurisdiction and answerable direct to the Pope. The present Gothic church was begun by King Henry III in 1245. By October 1269 the eastern portion, including the Quire, had been completed and the remains of St Edward were translated to a new shrine east of the High Altar.

    Exchange 49 (2020) 257-277 brill.com/exch The Revival of Palestinian Christianity Developments in Palestinian Theology Elizabeth S. Marteijn PhD Candidate, School of Divinity, Centre for the Study of World Christianity, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK s1460127@sms.ed.ac.uk Abstract Palestinian Christians are a minority of approximately 1 or 2% in a context marked by conflict, expulsions, and ongoing emigration. Despite all this, Palestinian Christians have made a significant contribution to society in the spheres of politics, the arts, sci- ence, and social welfare. Moreover, from the 1980s onwards, this Palestinian context of struggle has also been the source for the emergence of a socially and politically committed contextual theology. This article analyses the development of Palestinian contextual theology by examining theological publications by Palestinian theologians. It identifies liberation, reconciliation, witness, ecumenism, and interfaith-dialogue as some of the dominant theological themes. What unites these publications is a theological engagement with the Palestinian Christian identity in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Keywords contextual theology – Israeli-Palestinian conflict – Kairos theology – Palestinian Christianity – Palestinian theology – public theology 1 An Arab Christian Awakening Palestinian Christians feel deeply rooted in Palestinian society. They under- stand themselves as part of the Palestinian community and actively contribute to its flourishing.

    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XIII FIRST MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF HENRY LARCOM ABBOT 1831-1927 BY CHARLES GREELEY ABBOT PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1929 HENRY LARCOM ABBOT 1831-1927 BY CHARGES GREKLEY ABBOT Chapter I Ancestry Henry Larcom Abbot, Brigadier General, Corps of Engi- neers, U. S. Army, member of the National Academy of Sciences, was born at Beverly, Essex County, Massachusetts, August 13, 1831. He died on October 1, 1927, at Cambridge, Massachusetts, aged 96 years. He traced his descent in the male line from George Abbot, said to be a native of Yorkshire, England, who settled at Andover, Massachusetts, in the year 1642. Through early intermarriage, this line is closely con- nected with that of the descendants of George Abbott of Row- ley, Essex County, Massachusetts. The Abbots of Andover were farmers, highly respected by their townsmen, and often intrusted with elective office in town, church, and school affairs. In the fifth generation, de- scended through John, eldest son of George Abbot of An- dover,1 Abiel Abbot, a great-grandfather of General Abbot, removed from Andover to settle in Wilton, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, in the year 1763. He made his farm from the wilderness on "Abbot Hill" in the southern part of the township. Having cleared two acres and built a two-story house and barn, he married Dorcas Abbot and moved into the house with his bride before the doors were hung, in November, 1764. They had thirteen children, of whom the fourth, Ezra Abbot, born February 8, 1772, was grandfather to our propo- s^tus.

  • Renewal Conference Workshop #1 the Very Reverend Peet Dickinson Dean of the Cathedral Church of St
    Renewal Conference Workshop #1 The Very Reverend Peet Dickinson Dean of The Cathedral Church of St. Luke and St. Paul Charleston, SC Engaging Changing Cultures From the moment the Roman Emperor, Constantine, became Christian and Christianity became mainstream, the Church assumed a position of unrivaled cultural power and influence better known as Christendom, and that would last for over a millennium. Beginning with the Renaissance and through the Enlightenment, Christendom began to lose its hold on Western culture. Enter Modernism and the secular age of the 20th century and Christianity’s preeminence eroded even more. Now, in what might be called the late or post-modern age, Christendom is all but gone and the Church’s position of prominence has changed significantly. So, what are Christians called to do as we face the reality of changing cultures? Where can we find hope in the midst of the rise of secularism? In this workshop, Peet Dickinson will discuss how we as the Church got to where we are, the narratives and resulting approaches we adopt in the face of our relegation from the position of power, and assuming we’re definitely NOT obsolete, what a Biblical model for engaging changing cultures would be. Peet will share insights from Church history as well as his own experiences serving at an urban church on the doorstep of a university in a rapidly changing city. Peet has been in full time ministry for 22 years both as a youth minister and a priest. That ministry has spanned different kinds of communities including a small town church, a stint in post-Christian England for seminary, a large establishment church, and now a Cathedral set right in the heart of the increasingly secular urban south.
