  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See ADDRESS OF HIS HOLINESS BENEDICT XVI TO STUDENTS AND STAFF OF THE VENERABLE ENGLISH COLLEGE Monday, 3 December 2012 Your Eminence, dear Brother Bishops, Monsignor Hudson, Students and Staff of the Venerable English College, It gives me great pleasure to welcome you today to the Apostolic Palace, the House of Peter. I greet my Venerable brother, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor, a former Rector of the College, and I thank Archbishop Vincent Nichols for his kind words, spoken on behalf of all present. I too look back with great thanksgiving in my heart to the days that I spent in your country in September 2010. Indeed, I was pleased to see some of you at Oscott College on that occasion, and I pray that the Lord will continue to call forth many saintly vocations to the priesthood and the religious life from your homeland. Through God’s grace, the Catholic community of England and Wales is blessed with a long tradition of zeal for the faith and loyalty to the Apostolic See. At much the same time as your Saxon forebears were building the Schola Saxonum, establishing a presence in Rome close to the tomb of Peter, Saint Boniface was at work evangelizing the peoples of Germany. So as a former priest and Archbishop of the See of Munich and Freising, which owes its foundation to that great English missionary, I am conscious that my spiritual ancestry is linked with yours. Earlier still, of course, my predecessor Pope Gregory the Great was moved to send Augustine of Canterbury to your shores, to plant the seeds of Christian faith on Anglo-Saxon soil.

  • Editorial Benedict and Newman
    ECCLESIOLOGY Ecclesiology 7 (2011) 3–6 brill.nl/ecso Editorial Benedict and Newman One week after the visit of Pope Benedict XVI to Britain the dust has begun to settle and it is possible to start to take stock. Formally, the visit was a ‘state visit’. Th e invitation came from the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Gordon Brown; the Pope was received by HM Th e Queen at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh; the Pope addressed an audience of politicians (including four past Prime Ministers) and civic leaders in Westminster Hall, the historic centre of governance. His major theme in the ‘state’ aspect of his tour was the vital contribution that Christianity makes to the common good of a nation. He came in humility as befi ts any Christian and any pastor, but particularly the overseer of a church that has been dragged through the mire by multiple revelations of sexual abuse by priests and mis- guided reactions by those in authority over them. Against this background, the Holy Father spoke gently but fi rmly; he did not hector and there was no fi nger-wagging at moral failure. Only in that way could he have carried it off and avoided the charge, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’. By striking the note of humility and loving concern the Pope’s ministry steadied Christians of all per- suasions in the face of the noisy campaign of the militant atheists and secular- ists. Th e spiritual health of the kingdom received a boost. Although it was formally a state visit, the Pope’s ministry in Britain was marked by a strong pastoral quality.

  • Saint Augustine of Canterbury – Seventh Century England
    “A Great Cloud of Witnesses” A Historical Series of the Murals on the Walls of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Church Saint Augustine (of Canterbury) Seventh Century England Nothing is known about the early life of St. Augustine. He was a Benedic- tine monk living in Rome who in 596 A.D. was sent by Pope Gregory the Great to evangelize England. England had been colonized by the Romans, and there were some pockets of Christians in existence, the result of earlier mission- ary efforts. Yet the country was still largely un-Baptized. When St. Augustine arrived, he preached to the local king, whose wife was Christian. This scene is depicted in the mural. The king gave him permission to preach Jesus Christ in his kingdom, and gave him some land with a small stone church in Can- terbury. The king and many of his subjects were soon converted. St. Augustine reported these successes back to the pope who sent more help and a plan on establishing a working organization and hierarchy for the whole country. The pope advised St. Augustine to not destroy the pagan temples, but to Christianize and retain them. The pope also suggested that the pagan festivals were not to be eliminated, but to be replaced by the feasts of martyrs of the Church, for as the pope wrote, "he who would climb to a lofty height must go by steps, not leaps." St. Augustine labored in building a cathedral in Canterbury, and in Christianizing much of present-day England. Seven short years after his arrival, St.
