Leaders and church members from across Wisconsin, as well as family and friends of the Bishop, came to welcome him back to our Con- ference as our leader and listen to his humble words of inspiration. “It is my great privilege and honor to be installed today as a servant leader in the Wisconsin Conference,” he said. In his sermon, Bishop Jung spoke of God’s living waters: a river “so amazing and deep and wide, and includes all people, without negation and without rejec- tion.” He talked about his vision for the Church, one which celebrates diversity without hesitation, and focuses on bringing new members in all the time. As a sign of his servant leadership, Bishop performed a feet washing cere- mony by washing the feet of Conference Lay Leader Deanna Shimko before com- munion. “In that moment, I was so honored and humbled,” Shimko said. “It truly shows how dedicated our new Bishop is and how lucky we are to have him here.” The service, which more than 200 people attended, demonstrated an out- ABOVE: Conference leaders and Bishop Jung celebrate his ABOVE: Bishop Jung performed a pouring of support for Bishop Jung, including special guests such as a choir from Installation Service.

  • Report of the Hymn Book Supplement Task Force
    Report 009 Appendix 9 Faith, Worship, and Ministry REPORT OF THE HYMN BOOK SUPPLEMENT TASK FORCE Background The Hymn Book Supplement Working Group (HBSWG) was mandated by FWM early in its 2010- 2013 triennium in response to a proposal brought by one of its members. As a proJect not emerging from a clear mandate from General Synod, and not factored into the budget for that triennium, FWM made it clear that there could only be very minimal staffing (if any) and budget. The membership of the working group was established in consultation with FWM and with other Canadian church musicians. For budgetary reasons, membership had to be restricted to a particular geographical area if the work was to be done in face to face meetings. To mitigate the local character of the working group, FWM instructed the Task Force to arrange for consultations in every diocese in Canada to help to determine the shape and contents of the collection. The task force also made good use of The Anglican Journal, www.anglican.ca, and The Community to reach out and to invite submissions, feedback on the proJect, and to offer constructive thinking to help to shape the proJect. Membership David Buley, Diocese of Algoma John Campbell, Diocese of Toronto (to 2013) Michael Capon, Diocese of Ontario Douglas Cowling, Diocese of Toronto (to 2013) Kenneth Hull, Diocese of Huron; Convenor Martha Tatarnic, Diocese of Toronto [now Niagara] Becca Whitlaw, Diocese of Toronto Deirdre Piper, Diocese of Ottawa (from 2013) Consultations As part of the Hymn Book Supplement Working Group’s mandate, FWM requested that the task force arrange consultations in every diocese with musicians, clergy, and others to determine current repertoire needs, what resources are currently in use, and to receive suggestions of specific material for inclusion in the collection.

Spirituals contained the hopes and dreams, frustrations and fears, of generations of African Americans. It’s important to note that slavery still exists in forms such as bonded labour and human trafficking, and is still an ongoing issue in today’s world.

  • First Time at a Sacred Harp Singing?
    First time at a Sacred Harp singing? The Sacred Harp is the name of the tunebook we use, originally published 165 years ago in a tradition older still. The “sacred harp” refers to the human voice! This music is also called shape-note music — check out the expla- nation below, and be sure to look at the songs in the book to see what we mean. The first thing you might notice if you’re just listening is that we are not professional singers (although a few trained voices occasionally find their way to us). Sacred Harp recalls the days when church music was intended to be sung by the congregation rather than the choir. We sing for the joy of it. And while listeners are always wel- come, we singers don’t think of this event as a performance. Everyone is welcome to join in. Voice parts Where should I sit? in Ida Noyes Hall Sacred Harp music is divided into four parts: treble, alto, tenor (melody, or lead), and bass. STAGE Singers sit in a “hollow square” with each voice part taking one of the four sides and facing the center. (As you walk into the room, spot the all-male bass section to get oriented.) Alto 2nd line in music Depending on inclinations of temperament, timbre, or necessity, women and men double on both the treble and tenor parts, with women usually (but not always) singing an octave WS above the men. Any type, quality, and range of voice should find a comfortable and impor- eble DO tant place within its harmonies.

I want to study the historical progression of more recent contemporary church worship music. This will'involve gaining a foundation of 19th century worship music, but primarily focus on changes that have occurred since the 1970's that have worked to fuse the formerly forbidden sounds of rock and pop into the church.

  • Hymn to Christ the Saviour’
    MUSICAL SETTINGS OF CLEMENT’S ‘HYMN TO CHRIST THE SAVIOUR’ Jane Schatkin Hettrick Clement’s ‘Hymn to Christ the Saviour,’ appended to manuscripts of his book Paedagogus (The Tutor) is considered to be the most ancient hymn (text) of the Christian church. It entered the mainstream of Christian hym- nody within the Oxford Movement1 in the mid-nineteenth century, when it was translated into English in 1846 by the American Congregationalist pas- tor Henry Martyn Dexter (1821–1890).2 Dexter translated Clement’s hymn for a sermon he was writing on “some prominent characteristics of the early Christians,” based on the text Deuteronomy 32:7 (“Remember the days of old …”). After making a literal translation, he prepared a poetic version for his congregation to sing.3 Known by the rst line of this poetic translation as ‘Shepherd of Tender Youth,’ Clement’s ‘Hymn to Christ the Saviour’ has appeared in dozens of English-language hymnals and has received numer- ous musical settings by diferent composers.4 1 The Oxford Movement, which started in 1833 within the Church of England, sought to recover ‘ancient’ (pre-Reformation) traditions of music and liturgy. This antiquarian industry brought back plainchant and translated many Latin hymns, some of which became standard to hymnals of most denominations (e.g., ‘Veni Immanuel’). Erik Routley, The Music of Christian Hymns (Chicago: G.I.A. Publications, 1981), 89f. 2 Henry Martyn Dexter, pastor of churches in Manchester (New Hampshire) and Boston, is the author of several books about Congregationalism, including Congregationalism, What It Is, How It Works, and Why It Is Better than any Other Form of Church Government (1865) and A Handbook of Congregationalism (1880).

  • Module 12 Hymns and Spiritual Songs
    !Module 12 Hymns and Spiritual Songs! Under twelve headings, this module briefly covers the historical development of what has become our staple diet for singing in church, the hymn. This is an enormous !subject that will reward further study for which a list of books is provided at the end.! !1. Importance of Song! !Singing has always played an important part in the life of the Christian community.! ‘Singing, however simply, and even on one’s own, helps to deepen the worship. Singing can also unite a group or congregation, enriching their prayer and praise.’! !!!!!!!!Common Worship – Daily Prayer! Ephesians 5;19 ! …be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual !songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart…! Colossians 3;16! Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom and sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.! ! It is unclear exactly what the distinction was between psalms, hymns and spiritual songs; however, we do know that psalms were often sung antiphonally, spiritual !songs tended to be rather more spontaneous (look up jubilus).! !Old Testament references: ! Exodus 15! Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to the Lord: ‘I will sing to the !Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously…’! I Samuel 2;1-5 ! Hannah also prayed and said, ‘My heart exults in the Lord; my strength is exalted in !the Lord. My mouth derides the enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation…’! What New Testament song does this remind you of?! ! What do both of these songs have in common?! ‘HYMN’: ! Augustine of Hippo's (354-430) definition was "a song containing praise of God"! ! From the rhythmic pattern of the Greek we can assume that a number of New Testament passages were hymns, or sections of hymns, which were well known to !the early Christians.! Read Philippians 2;6-11, and Colossians 1;15-20! Can you find any similar passages in Ephesians and 1 Timothy? ! !2.

  • The Migration of Protestant Music in European Culture
    The Migration of Protestant Music in European Culture Cristian Caraman ABSTRACT: The migration of musical art forms, from one nation to another, from one century to another and from one cultural context to another was a historical panacea of humanity. Through music, the Christian faith has managed to keep the dialogue open amongst the main Christian orientations—Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant/Evangelical. This article links the beginnings of protestant music, during the XIV and XVI centuries, to the spiritual manifestations that shaped the protestant music throughout history. A very important piece of the reformation is the Protestant chorale. The chorale brought forth the ideology of the reformation and gave life to the esthetic ideas of the humanists. The invention of the printing press in Krakow in 1475 helped spreading the teachings of Protestantism. KEY WORDS: Reformation, Protestant music, humanism, Chorale, Protestant, Christian faith. The Spread of Protestantism in Europe ach branch of the Reformation was deeply affected by Humanism. EMartin Luther used the Greek New Testament edited by Erasmus, perfecting the understanding of Pauline theology, and Huldrych Zwingli, John Calvin, Philipp Melanchthon and Théodore Bèze were initiated in the humanist studies prior to embracing Protestantism. The Reformation, regarded as a transitional period between the late Middle Ages and the Modern Era, is characterized by the development 267 268 HARVARD SQUARE SYMPOSIUM 2/2016 | THE PHENOMENON OF MIGRATION of a new type of culture, which has struggled to survive, while the old model was equally struggling not to perish. The Reformation is a religious movement initiated by Martin Luther, which led to the emergence of a new Christian community independent of the Roman Catholic Church, and a new type of religiosity, Protestantism.
