THE rrtmiw PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN THE UNITED STATES IN ^^kJv. 1893 HV ^ BROOKLYN, N. Y.: ORPHANS' PRESS—CHURCH CHARITY FOUNDATION, 1555 Atlantic Avenue. \ <m C0MGR8M WASHIWGTOH #& Copyright, 1894, BY CHARLES F. HURLBURT. THE PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1893 In presenting this little pamphlet to the notice of his fellow Churchmen, the writer earnestly hopes that it will meet with a kindly reception, and prove of interest. While any one, so disposed, could have gathered the same facts, yet, as far as the writer's knowledge goes, it has never been attempted, in this form, and so he claims, at least, originality, though there may be no particular ability displayed. There are, as a matter of course, some inaccuracies; it would not be possible to have it otherwise, such is the manner of making some of the Convention Journals. The Communicants are not separated, in many instances, and two, and often more Churches are connected by a bracket, and the communicants mentioned in gross. But by the "law of compensation," it is probable that, in the end, the Communicants belonging to each Church named, are in the main correct. To those who have not looked into this matter, there may be some surprises. The writer has given the names of the Churches in every Diocese and Missionary District, except some in South Dakota, which will be spoken of, under that head, later on. Where there are dashes [— ] opposite a Church name, it signifies that no communicants are reported. There are scores of Missions with no names, as will be seen. The writer believes that, as before mentioned, there will be some surprises. In the nomenclature of the Churches, it is a singular fact that there are but one of a name, in many instances, in the whole country. Take, for instance, "Church of the Advocate," While 4 The Protestant Episcopal Church. there are numerous "Redeemers," " Mediators," etc., there is but one of that name, and that is in Philadelphia; but one "Reformation" (Brooklyn), and so on. The writer has taken a great deal from Whittaker's admirable Church Almanac for 1894, which, by the by, should be in the hands of every Churchman. A great many of the details have been culled from Convention Journals of 1893, and the writer hereby thanks those Secretaries, who have courteously sent their Journals to him. To sum up, the writer has done the best he could with the data in his possession, and if any errors have crept in, he sincerely asks indulgence, for this little work has been written under most painful conditions, almost helplessness and nearly (and soon will be) total blindness. It has been written, too, in the hope, and with the most earnest prayers, that his fellow-churchmen will feel a hearty sympathy for one who, in this effort, is trying to bring aid and comfort to those dearest to him, and make his life, now drawing near its conclusion, end in peace. CHARLES F. HURLBURT, Brooklyn, August, 1894. PART I. DIOCESES. There are, in the United States, fifty-three Dioceses, and seventeen Missionary Districts including Alaska. The Dioceses will be treated of first. Within the last twenty-five years there has been a great increase in their number. The State of New York has now five (5); Pennsylvania, three (3); New jersey, two (2); Maryland, two (2). Virginia, two (2); North Carolina, two (2); Florida, a Missionary District beside the old Diocese; Texas, two (2) Missionary Districts beside the old Diocese; Missouri, a Missionary District, in addition to the old Diocese; Ohio, two (2); Illniois, three (3). Michigan, two (2) also a Missionary District; Wisconsin, two (2); while Nebraska, Colorado and Calfornia has each a Diocese and a Missionary District; in the case of the State of Washingtion there are two Missionary Districts within its limits. The General Convention of the Church is held triennially and consists of the House of Bishops, and that of the Clerical and Lay Deputies. It is not the province of the writer to enter into any extended notice of the workings of the Church, except as he has commented upon the subject on treating of the several Dioceses. Suffice it to say that the Church has under its fostering care a vast number of Educa- tional and Charitable Institutions, and that the members of the Church are among the most eminent in all walks of life, and that the Church is increasing rapidly all over this favored land, its Bishops and Clergy conveying the Gospel of Glad Tidings into its most remote sections. With these preliminary remarks the writer goes into the details of the Dioceses. 6 The Protestant Episcopal Church ALABAMA. ORGANIZED 183O. Bishop, Rt. Rev. Richard Hooker Wilmer, D.D. Assistant Bishop, Rt. Rev. Henry Melville Jackson, D.D. This Diocese shows evidence of growth ; its increase of communi- cants over 1892 being about one hundred There are many Missions, and they are constantly increasing. Bishop Wilmer, on account of ill health cannot do as much as he used to do ; but his able Assistant is a strong and able man, both in mind and body, and is doing great work. The largest Churches are: Com. Com. St. John's, Mobile 689 Christ, Mobile 458 St. John's, Montgomery.... 615 Trinity, Mobile 410 Advent, Birmingham 590 St. Paul's, Selma 325 Contributions, $126,628.87; Communicants, 6287; Ratio, $20.11.

  • From: MISSISSIPPI
    An Informal History Of St. Clement’s Episcopal Church Vaiden, Mississippi 1876 – 1976 by Emily Barksdale Humphrey p. i PREFACE “There be some who have left a name behind them and whose remembrance is sweet. And there be some who have no memorial. But their righteousness has not been forgotten and their glory shall not be blotted out.” Eccl. 44 ONE HUNDRED YEARS IN HIS HOUSE This is a story which for 100 years has stood looking eastward over the green trees of Vaiden, the Big Black River, and the eternal sunrise. It is a house that belongs to the Holy Trinity and to the many dozens of His human children whose feet have crossed its threshold with the past century, bringing their joys, griefs, fears, hopes and frustrations, and laying them down in the quiet peace of His sanctuary. Some places seem to have a memory and living spirit. We do well to keep such places holy and to seek what they have to tell us. Inescapably it is also the story of an era that has passed and of another era beginning. It is in part the story of Vaiden and of those sturdy old homes in winter with crackling fires and comfortable chairs, broad porches in summer and picket fences, winding walks and armies of squirrels and robins. It is all part of that 100 years of history which is the heritage of the Church of St. Clement’s. In order that it may not be lost it must be written down. Emily Barksdale Humphrey has happily recorded many interesting facts about our church as only one can do who has deep affection, and as one who attended the church as a child and was there baptized and confirmed.

A circle of his followers watched him as he spread the small roll of sheepskin before him, then tied the parchment with a purple thread, sealed it with his gem- studded seal and handed it to a waiting messenger, who mounted his camel and was away, across the desert, into the deepening dark. The scene shifts; the centuries pass. The Saxon abbot is alone in his meager library, and he scans once more the sheepskin on which the brilliant colors shine. They spell out in gold, ruby, sapphire blue, a secret message of great importance, that the student monks have written and illuminated with all care and laid before him. He forms it all into a booklet and ties it with a purple figment of silk that matches his robe. Then he reaches for his lead seal and presses the beeswax into the knot, so that the image of the mitre and the cross is plain to see. The document is ready for the fleet-footed messenger.

No written outline can replace the personal contributions of the pastors and teachers charged with educating the people of God. They must teach the classes, and they must select what portions of these lessons are appropriate to the ages and educational levels of their students. All I have attempted to do is to make their important job easier: to give them a place to begin. Anyone who has tried to teach others for any amount of time will know exactly what I mean. I have used my notes and earlier versions of this course for a number of years, and so I have included here articles based on questions my students have actually asked, as well as those things I am convinced a Christian ought to know (whether he asks or not).

  • Randolph H. Mckim: Lost Cause Conservative, Episcopal Liberal
    Randolph H. McKim: Lost Cause Conservative, Episcopal Liberal STEVE LONGENECKER On the evening of 1 July 1863, Lieutenant Randolph H. McKim and his unit, the Second Maryland, CSA, marched into Gettys- burg, Pennsylvania, and took a position southeast of the town at the base of Culp’s Hill. As the Marylanders waited for battle—the pause was almost twenty-four hours—McKim led them and another unit in worship. Then, when battle began, McKim and three enlisted men replenished dwindling ammunition by emptying several boxes into blankets attached to fence rails and lugging the configuration up the hill under the July sun. Four bullets struck the pious lieutenant, but he was not seriously injured.1 One year after the brush with death on Culp’s Hill, McKim became a military chaplain, and when peace returned, he en- joyed a successful career as an influential Episcopal rector. As a veteran and former chaplain, McKim spoke frequently and published often to defend what he and the Second Maryland sought to accomplish at Culp’s Hill and beyond. In fact, McKim became a prominent promoter of the Lost Cause, a romantic, unapologetic defense of the Confederacy, and in this role McKim was conservative with the past central to his worldview. 1 Randolph H. McKim, A Soldier’s Recollections: Leaves from the Diary of a Young Confederate (New York., 1910), 184-85, 194-95, 201. McKim says that ‘‘one of our staff’’ led worship at the foot of Culp’s Hill, but elsewhere he stated that he led services ‘‘on the battlefield’’ (210) and the assumption is that he did it.
