  • The Anglican Is Late As We Grapple with the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
    THE NGLICAN Vol 18 No. 1 Published By The Diocese Of Jamaica & The Cayman Islands PRICE $100 APRIL 2020 Editorial Committee Statement Dear Friends This Easter issue of The Anglican is late as we grapple with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is an unusual issue as it is being published online because of the present circumstances. Our Editorial Committee decided to do this for three main reasons: Firstly, we know that, even in adversity, God is with us and we need to retain our hope. In this connection, I refer you to the Message from His Grace the Archbishop. Secondly, we need to recognize and promote the creative ways in which our Diocesan family has responded to the crisis, both in our worship; and the operation of our schools, as members, teachers and students face the restrictions on our movements which, unfortunately, have become the new ‘norm’. Thirdly, we need to remember that, even as we are preoccupied with the spread of the corona virus, life has to go Archbishop’s Easter Message on. This issue covers the period January to March 2020. ecently, I underwent a minor medical ability of the human and material resources to I urge you all to be vigilant and keep Rprocedure, following which the doctor alleviate the situation. The sheer physical pain safe in this new environment. Please stay asked if I was feeling any pain. I replied that which the virus inflicts on the body of the worse in touch with the Diocese as a whole, what I was feeling was a mere discomfort affected; the separation of infected persons and your local church, in particular, because I have seen human pain and I from all contact with family; the burial of those by following and participating in the Services and meditations shared on could not bestow such a label to my little who succumb without even family members to Diocesan Social Media (Facebook, discomfort.

  • The West Indian Mission to West Africa: the Rio Pongas Mission, 1850-1963
    The West Indian Mission to West Africa: The Rio Pongas Mission, 1850-1963 by Bakary Gibba A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Bakary Gibba (2011) The West Indian Mission to West Africa: The Rio Pongas Mission, 1850-1963 Doctor of Philosophy, 2011 Bakary Gibba Department of History, University of Toronto Abstract This thesis investigates the efforts of the West Indian Church to establish and run a fascinating Mission in an area of West Africa already influenced by Islam or traditional religion. It focuses mainly on the Pongas Mission’s efforts to spread the Gospel but also discusses its missionary hierarchy during the formative years in the Pongas Country between 1855 and 1863, and the period between 1863 and 1873, when efforts were made to consolidate the Mission under black control and supervision. Between 1873 and 1900 when additional Sierra Leonean assistants were hired, relations between them and African-descended West Indian missionaries, as well as between these missionaries and their Eurafrican host chiefs, deteriorated. More efforts were made to consolidate the Pongas Mission amidst greater financial difficulties and increased French influence and restrictive measures against it between 1860 and 1935. These followed an earlier prejudiced policy in the Mission that was strongly influenced by the hierarchical nature of nineteenth-century Barbadian society, which was abandoned only after successive deaths

The events of the period in the World and the Church. The Eastern War, and the attitude of the English Clergy. The New Court, and its failure. The Ridsdale Judgment : even if faulty, entitled to obedience. The Confession agitation : Confraternities : the true position of Confession in the Anglican System. The growth, wide-spread and aggressive intolerance of unbelief. Study of recent evidential literature its best antidote, and sound and clear dogmatic teaching its best prophylactic to the young. —Scientific and philosophic hypotheses not to be taken for proved facts on authority. Necessity of study, and suspended judgment on Church con- troversies of the day, e.g. Inspiration and Eschatology. Approximation to the Anglican Obedience of bodies yearning for reform in France and Spain, as well as Old Catholics, Ar- menians, and other Eastern Christians. — Bolder and sounder attitude of the American Church towards Haiti and Mexico. — Divergence from the English Church of Nonconformists, especially Wesleyans : possibility of re-union on the basis of mutual independence of system, but defect of orders remedied.—Analogy of Friars in the Mediaeval Church.
