  • 1857: the Mission to Furnish Means for Episcopal Seminarians
    1857: The Mission to Furnish Means for Episcopal Seminarians “The more things change the more they stay the same” might well serve as the appropriate motto for the Society for the Increase of the Ministry as it marks the 150th anniversary of its founding. SIM currently has set a course for the 21st century that requires unprecedented change in its organization and structure in order to remain faithful to its original and same purpose set forth at its founding in 1857: “The object of this corporation shall be to furnish means for the education of candidates for holy orders in the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States.” “The Episcopal Church’s membership stood at about 400,000 in 1857 and would experience significant growth in numbers and geographical dispersion in the latter 19th century.” The need for dedicated, trained and educated ordained leaders of the Church in 2007 remains the same as in 1857, but the circumstances have changed dramatically. The United States during the term of President James Buchanan was heading for the country’s greatest crisis that would erupt into a bloody and fractious war in 1860. The frontier still beckoned settlers to fill the vast spaces that would be defended by Native Americans for several more decades. The Civil War would unleash a new wave of economic development and industrialization and the country would soon be tied together in a new way with the trans-continental railroad. Millions of immigrants would flock to our shores.A nation of 32 million has grown to the 300 million of 2006.

  • James Theodore Holly (1829 - 1911)
    February 24, 2013 Bulletin St Stephen’s Episcopal Church Celebrates Black History Month 2013 James Theodore Holly (1829 - 1911) The Right Reverend James Theodore Holly was born in Washington, D.C. on October 3, 1829. He would become the first African-American Bishop in the Episcopal Church and serve as Bishop of Haiti from 1874 until his death in 1911. James Theodore Holly was descended from freed slaves as well as slave-owners. His great- great-grandfather was a Scotsman who freed several of his slaves in 1772, including his son (who would later become Bishop Holly’s great-grandfather). James was well-educated in both public and private schools as well as by tutors. As a youth in Washington, DC and Brooklyn, Holly connected with Frederick Douglas and other prominent abolitionists. Although Holly was baptized and raised in the Roman Catholic Church, but due to a dispute over the ordination of black clergy, he left the Roman Catholic Church and joined the Episcopal Church in 1851 (at age 21). He married Charlotte Holly and they moved to Windsor, Canada, where a young Holly helped former slave Henry Bibb, edit his newspaper, Voice of the Fugitive. In 1856 Holly was ordained a priest in New Haven, Connecticut. That same year he co-founded the Protestant Episcopal Society for Promoting the Extension of the Church Among Colored People, which challenged the Church to take a position at General Convention against slavery. Holly served as rector at St Luke’s Church in New Haven, Connecticut until 1861. Work in Haiti Even as he continued his religious activities, Reverend Holly was increasingly drawn toward emigration, believing that African Americans had no future in the United States.

Burgess Jamieson BAY AREA VENTURE CAPITALISTS: SHAPING THE ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS LANDSCAPE Interviews conducted by Sally Smith Hughes in 2009 Copyright © 2010 by The Regents of the University of California ii Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and J. Burgess Jamieson, dated January 15, 2010. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes.

Sheridan Mr. Ralph Spence Bishop Moore was the Convener and was elected Chairman, Dr. Stanley Gasek was elected Vice-Chairman, and Ms. Gillett was elected Secretary. Discussion centered on adopting a budget of approximately $3,500for the three years and a tentative timetable was set up for the work of the Committee. Bishop Moore distributed copies of the Joint Rules of Order which apply to our Committee as well as pertinent resolutions and other materials. There was much discussion about the process of nomination in the Church and it was determined that Mr. Worden will research and determine for the Committee the exact number of nominations which we must make, after consultation with Dr. Gundrum, and thenshare the information with the Committee as soon as possible. The Committee discussed both the criteria for selection of nominees and the need to ascertain or communicate something aboutthe responsibility of each position. Dr. Gasek was assigned the responsibility for gathering this information and sharing through a "press release" how we see our task, the whole process ofnominations, and our deter­ mination to carry it out in a sensitive and serious matter.
