Anglican Journal Inspiring the faithful since 1875 vol. 139 no. 10 december 2013 The irreverent, reverent Don Cherry

by Diana Swift

Don Cherry is such a devout Angli- can that on a visit to National Post columnist Fr. Raymond J. de Sousa, he impressed the Catholic priest by reciting the Book of Common Prayer’s Confession—from “Dearly beloved brethren” to the end of the Absolution. Yes, that Don Cherry, the tough ex-hockey player and coach and controversial take-no-prisoner sports commentator, a fan of rough play and on-ice enforcers who unrepentantly vents against pushy female reporters in male locker rooms and effete European hockey players. But also the spiritual sportscaster who at Christmas tells young Hockey Night in Canada fans not to forget that December 25 is a celebra- tion of Jesus’ birthday. In fact, the 79-year-old Cherry is a lifelong Anglican and a member of a group dedicated to preserving worship in the noble cadences of the Book of Common Prayer. “Its language is almost Shakespearean,” he says. “The revised prayer book just doesn’t capture the beautiful language of our Anglican past.” Committed Anglican though he is and fancier of finery almost sacerdotal in flamboyance, this high priest of hockey never aspired to becoming a clergyman. “I only ever wanted to be a professional hockey player, like most Canadian boys Travis Golby/NHLI via Getty Images at the time,” says Cherry, who was Donald S.

THE LITTLE TOWNS OF BETHLEHEM

By John Terpstra

For unto us in Aklavik is born a child, in Attawapiskat Gaspé Cornerbrook, Newfoundland. And a son is given, in Westaskiwin Bella Coola Flin Flon. And the future of the whole earth is placed upon the shoulders of the daughter of Tuktoyaktuk Tignish Swan Lake. And the place of their birth is called Vermilion Temiskaming Nain. Picture Butte

An angel of the Lord appears in the night sky over Rankin Inlet, over Iqaluit, saying This shall be the sign: you will find the babe wrapped in cast-off flannel, lying on a bed of straw, in Esther, Alberta in a winter feeding stall an open boxcar, outside Kindersley, Saskatchewan.

And sure, several hours north from Hogg’s Hollow, just this side Englehart you see one, sleeping in its mother’s arms on the soft shoulder, where their car broke down. And the dark highway shines imperishable life while helping them beneath these northern lights and driving on, through Cochrane Kapuskasing Hearst past Nipigon, and on to the little town of Emo Rainy River Region, and least among the little dots that lie scattered as stars and litter the map of Northwest Ontario, where they’re expecting you, as in so many other of these least likely dots this expectation also is; in Miniota Pickle Lake Ohsweken Glace Bay.

For unto us. For into all this night is born a child, this night bearing each, and the places of their birth, and nativity is given every name.
