Sunil+ Friends, in the Easter season and the springtime, Jesus invites us to let go of our fears. To be aware of them NEWS FROM THE ALTAR GUILD How wonderful it is to be able to decorate our beautiful church for Holy Week and Easter. Although things are still not ?back to normal? we are so pleased to be able to go back to being able to keep up our traditions. This is a very busy time for the Altar Guild! The Garden of Repose will be in place for Maundy Thursday and on Holy Saturday we will unveil the crosses, return all of our brass, bring back the hangings (white) and adorn the Paschal Candle with a ring of flowers. This year the All Night Vigil in the Garden of Repose will be virtual. One will be able to click on the link and pray and meditate at any time during the night. The Altar Guild wishes to thank Vickie VanHorn, a longtime member of the Altar Guild for replacing the gold fringe and braid on the altar white and gold hanging given by Janet M. Gordon, an Emeritus member of the Altar Guild and mother of our Co-Directress, Natalie Pukas. Almost two years ago at Easter, we discovered that the mice had loved the gold fringe at the bottom and destroyed most of it. It was a difficult task to find a match but finally, it was found in England and was sent to us. We received a very generous donation from Barbara Capalbo for its repair. Vickie has replaced it and it will once again adorn our altar for the Easter Season. Thank you all for your generosity and support for our Mothering Sunday Rose Sale. Again, we were so happy to do it this year with the addition of a drive through pick up. From last year?s add3itional profits after buying the chairs for the Parish Hall, we were able to donate $900.00 to the refinishing of the Parish House floor. We are also glad to be able to offer the Caring Crosses for Easter with our memorials and thanksgivings. All names will be published in the email blast as well as during the 10AM Easter Service. Crosses will be blessed and be available for pick up after each service on Saturday and Sunday. They will be placed outside of the office for pick-up during the week. FR. ERIK LARSEN From the Priest Associate Dear Friends: Here's an Easter meditation: There was a charming article in the Times of London a fewyears ago about a six-year-old girl named Lulu who went to a Scottish church primary school. Her teachers asked her to write the following letter: "To God, How did you get invented?" Her father was somewhat taken aback: "We had no idea that a state primary school affiliated with a church would 'do' quite so much God," says her father. He could have told Lulu that, in his opinion, there was no God; or he could have pretended that he was a believer. He chose to do neither, instead emailing her letter to the Scottish Episcopal Church (no reply), the Presbyterians (ditto) and the Scottish Catholics (a nice but theologically complex answer). For good measure, he also sent it to 4 "the head of theology of the Anglican Communion, based at Lambeth Palace" ? and this was the response: Dear Lulu, Your dad has sent on your letter and asked if I have any answers. It's a difficult one! But I think God might reply a bit like this ? 'Dear Lulu ? Nobody invented me ? but lots of people discovered me and were quite surprised. They discovered me when they looked round at the world and thought it was really beautiful or really mysterious and wondered where it came from. They discovered me when they were very, very quiet on their own and felt a sort of peace and love they hadn't expected. Then they invented ideas about me ? some of them sensible and some of them not very sensible. From time to time I sent them some hints ? specially in the life of Jesus ? to help them get closer to what I'm really like. But there was nothing and nobody around before me to invent me. Rather like somebody who writes a story in a book, I started making up the story of the world and eventually invented human beings like you who could ask me awkward questions! And then he'd send you lots of love and sign off. I know he doesn't usually write letters, so I have to do the best I can on his behalf.? Lots of love from me too. It was signed, +Archbishop Rowan Williams (the now retired Archbishop of Canterbury.) I love this. Could anyone have done better? What do you think? Fr. Erik+ 5 I had t he honor and privilege of sit t ing dow n w it h George Kent t o discuss his upcom ing 65t h Anniversary w it h Christ Church. George, you?ve been here for 65 years? w hat m ade you st ay? I?ve had other opportunities, but there were no oceans! It really boils down to the people here? they are so important. For instance, I knew Meg Roy since she was in kindergarten. It?s also this special area and the beauty of this place that I never tire of. Lastly, in the Episcopal Church, music is such a large part of the service. The choir feels like it?s a ministry for them and their dedication is inspiring. Can you w alk dow n m em ory lane a bit for m e and t alk about w hat it w as like w hen you first st art ed at Christ Church? In 1956, there were only 4 choir members. I had this idea to get the children involved, and once they were, they really helped to grow the choir. The girls sang at one service and the trebles (the boys) at another. I have fond memories of choir camp which was always a part of my life and my family?s life.

  • ENCOMPASS News and Events from the American Anglican Council • First Quarter 2013
    ENCOMPASS News and Events from the American Anglican Council • First Quarter 2013 “Keep the faith and we will be with you.” The installation of Justin Welby as the 105th Archbishop of Canterbury. BY VINAY SAMUEL & CHRIS SUGDEN he installation of Justin Welby as the 105th Archbishop Tof Canterbury was an energy creating event. We both witnessed it, one on the internet in Bangalore, the other in the nave of Canterbury Cathedral. The new Archbishop was unapologetic about putting his stamp of joyful evangelical Christian discipleship and service of Jesus as Saviour and Lord on the whole afternoon. As he entered the Cathedral’s West Door, in a liturgy he created, he was questioned by Evangeline Kanagasooriam, a 17 year old student of Sri Lankan origin. “Who are you and why do you request entry?” “I am Justin, A servant of Jesus Christ, and I come seeking the grace of God, to travel with you in his service together.” “How do you come among us and with what confidence?” “I come knowing nothing except Jesus Christ and him cru- cified, and in weakness and fear and in much trembling.” The service clearly affirmed the gospel of Jesus Christ as the one Lord and Saviour in the presence of leaders of other faiths and of liberal leaders in the Communion. Great hymns of the church were chosen by Archbishop The doors of Canterbury Cathedral open to The Rt. Rev. Justin Welby that speak of the centrality of Jesus as Lord and his Welby during the elaborate installation service.

  • Sermon Last Sunday After Pentecost 2016 November 20, 2016 St
    Sermon Last Sunday after Pentecost 2016 November 20, 2016 St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church The Rt. Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde Forgiveness When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified Jesus there with the criminals, one on his right and one on his left. Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." Luke 23:33-34 I once heard a professor of religion liken the core values that all world religions share to a set of cards. Each religion, he said, has the complete set of values. Where they differ is in the ordering of them, which values—or cards—they place on top in terms of priority and importance. Yet the uniqueness and strength of each spiritual path is revealed, in part, by the particular value it considers to be of greatest importance. In Buddhism, the central spiritual value is detachment, the acceptance of suffering as the path to enlightenment. In Judaism, it is the sacredness of all life, striving to be faithful to God in the details of everyday living. In Islam, the core value is surrender to will of God. And in many Native American traditions, it is reverence for the earth, seeing all creation as holy. On this, the last Sunday of the Christian calendar, the essence of Jesus’ ministry is revealed to us. From the cross, Jesus reveals Christianity’s core value and spiritual cornerstone: forgiveness. His words--Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing--underscore the primary message and the central metaphor of his life.

  • A Meditation on Four Christ Poems by Rowan Williams
    ATR/ 99.3 The Unfamiliar Lord: A Meditation on Four Christ Poems by Rowan Williams Tim Vivian* With the four poems discussed in this essay, Rowan Williams brings us deep into a land of both likeness and unlikeness. These thoroughly incamational poems are not besotted with the baby Jesus, but rather turn our attention to ourselves as incarnated beings, as incarnations of the incarnation. What trepidations does the incarnation bang with it? What responsibilities does it ask of us, require of us? With beauty of language and intrepidness of speech, Williams has put into verse profound theological, sotenological, and anthropological considerations. By doing so, he considerably widens our normal theological pathway into a sturdy trail (though not a paved avenue). Williams invites us to walk with him, poetry’s walking stick in hand, as we together explore the vast, known, and mysterious beauties of our incarnated earth, our incarnated Lord familiar and unfamiliar, our incarnated lives. Split the wood and I am there, says the unfamiliar Lord. (Rowan Williams, “Door”) Introduction Amid numerous books and articles on theology and history and pastoral spiritual guidance, Rowan Williams has published four books -charge of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Bakersfield, Cal־Tim Vivian is priest-in * ifornia, and professor of Religious Studies at California State University, Bakersfield. He is the author of numerous books and articles on early Christian, especially Egyp- tian, monasticism. More recently he has published essays on literature. His article ‘Wake the Devil from His Dream: Thomas Dudley, Quincy Ewing, Religion, and the ‘Race Problem’ in the Jim Crow South,” published in the December 2014 issue of Anglican and Episcopal History, was the recipient of the Historical Society of the Episcopal Church’s 2015 Nelson R.

    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF EVENING PRAYER IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS HOLINESS POPE BENEDICT XVI AND HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY Friday 17 September 2010 6.15 pm THE COLLEGIATE CHURCH OF ST PETER IN WESTMINSTER Westminster Abbey’s recorded history can be traced back well over a thousand years. Dunstan, Bishop of London, brought a community of Benedictine monks here around 960 AD and a century later King Edward established his palace nearby and extended his patronage to the neighbouring monastery. He built for it a great stone church in the Romanesque style which was consecrated on 28 December 1065. The Abbey was dedicated to St Peter, and the story that the Apostle himself consecrated the church is a tradition of eleventh-century origin. King Edward died in January 1066 and was buried in front of the new high altar. When Duke William of Normandy (William I) arrived in London after his victory at the Battle of Hastings he chose to be crowned in Westminster Abbey, on Christmas Day 1066. The Abbey has been the coronation church ever since. The Benedictine monastery flourished owing to a combination of royal patronage, extensive estates, and the presence of the shrine of St Edward the Confessor (King Edward had been canonised in 1161). Westminster’s prestige and influence among English religious houses was further enhanced in 1222 when papal judges confirmed that the monastery was exempt from English ecclesiastical jurisdiction and answerable direct to the Pope. The present Gothic church was begun by King Henry III in 1245. By October 1269 the eastern portion, including the Quire, had been completed and the remains of St Edward were translated to a new shrine east of the High Altar.

  • Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury: an Appreciation
    Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury: An Appreciation On Friday, 16 March, Archbishop Rowan Williams announced that he would step down as leader of the 70 million strong worldwide Anglican Communion after being at the helm for a decade. In January 2013, he will be returning to Cambridge to take up the post of Master of Magdalene College. Reflecting on his tenure as Archbishop in a media interview to mark this announcement, Williams said: ‘The worst aspects of the job, I think, have been the sense that there are some conflicts that won’t go away, however long you struggle with them, and that not everybody in the Anglican Communion or even the Church of England is eager to avoid schism or separation’. When Rowan Williams was enthroned as the 104th Archbishop of Canterbury, whose lineage could be traced to St Augustine who first set foot on British soil in 597, he was only 52, the youngest person to occupy this office for nearly 200 years. Even before he became the spiritual leader of the Anglican Communion, Williams has had a brilliant career in both academia and the Church. At just 36, he was appointed Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity at Oxford University, after serving as an ordained priest in Cambridge and lecturer in Divinity in the city’s university. In 1989, he was awarded the degree of Doctor of Divinity, and a year later became a fellow of the prestigious British Academy. Williams was elected and consecrated as bishop of Monmouth in 1992, and in 2002 as the Archbishop of Wales.

  • On Understanding and Desire: a Reflection
    T On Understanding and Desire: A Reflection Brian A Hardy Context T Surprised and daunted by a request from the editor to write an article for Theology in Scotland, I am nevertheless grateful for the opportunity such a request gives me to share with a wider public the strange mixture of alarm and excitement which the experience of being alive at precisely this time arouses within me. I write as a priest of the Scottish Episcopal Church, now seven years retired, enjoying the privilege of still being allowed to share to some extent in the pastoral and liturgical ministry of that Church and of other Churches. In exercising that ministry and in the living of my life I have become increasingly aware of the acute pressures experienced by those who seek to live fully within the present culture and at the same time to live by a faith which describes itself as Christian. The effect of these pressures, as is well known and frequently discussed, is that within our culture the inherited understandings and reference points are seen as no longer fixed, immutable, and in that sense dependable. Mobility, not only in our social and geographical settings but also in the concepts within which we seek to locate ourselves inwardly, appears now to be the name of the game. Authority comes to be regarded with suspicion, and with it the institutions within which or through which it has been exercised. Recent polls seeking the public’s attitude toward government bear this out. Institutions are seen as agencies through which particular groupings within society secure their own advantage and at least a measure of social control.

  • ANGLO-CATHOLIC HISTORY SOCIETY Newsletter—December 2012
    ANGLO-CATHOLIC HISTORY SOCIETY Newsletter—December 2012 EDITORIAL At time when a new Archbishop of Canterbury has just been appointed it is appropriate that one of our members should publish a biographical study of one of his predecessors, Cosmo Gordon Lang who held the office from 1928 – 1942. Members will recall that the author, Father Robert Beaken, lectured to the Society in February 2008. His talk was entitled, “Their Proper Place. Archbishop Lang and Anglo-Catholicism”. The book itself has already been favourably reviewed in the Daily Telegraph by Christopher Howse who reports “I am immensely enthusiastic about Robert Beaken’s Cosmo Gordon Lang…it establishes a vivid and convincing picture of the man at the helm of the Church of England…” A review by our chairman is printed below and I have negotiated a special reduced rate for purchase of the book directly from the publishers – see the enclosed flier and order form. HENRY FYNES-CLINTON Another of our members, Father John Salter, has also published an important book at the present time. It comes in the form of the Society’s latest Occasional Paper and is a personal memoir of a leading Anglican Papalist, Father Henry Fynes-Clinton. Copies are available to members from the Secretary at £18 including postage. It is the first study to be published about Fr Fynes, a significant figure in Anglo-Catholicism of the first half of the Twentieth Century. The front of this Newsletter reproduces a snapshot taken of Father Fynes in old age which appears on the cover of the book in colour.
