  • Episcopal Church Style Guide
    Episcopal Church Style Guide The official name of the church is The Episcopal Church. When writing about the Episcopal Church, please follow these guidelines: * In the first reference, the full name of the church is preferred: The Episcopal Church. * When referring to church members, the term “Episcopalians” is preferred. We elect a Presiding Bishop, who is our chief pastor and primate of the church. Chosen by the House of Bishops from one of its members, the Presiding Bishop serves for nine years, or until normal retirement age, if that occurs first. In formal usage, he or she is known as “The Most Reverend”,” usually abbreviated to “The Most Rev.” His or her first name (or preferred forename) is always used, together with an initial if applicable (e.g., “The Most Rev. John A. Smith”, or “The Most Rev. A. John Smith”). All other bishops should be addressed as above, but using the form “The Rt. Rev.” Priests and deacons are referred to as “The Rev.” Our church is organized into dioceses, and there is at least one diocese in each state. However, some states have two or more dioceses. For example, we have a Diocese of New Jersey, but in the northern part of the state there is a Diocese of Newark. Likewise, there is a Diocese of Texas, but there are several other dioceses in that state. The Bishop with jurisdiction of a diocese is usually known as the “diocesan bishop”, and is sometimes known as the “Ordinary.” He or she may have other bishops to assist, who are referred to as “bishops suffragan” and are elected in the same way that bishops are, by representatives of the members of the diocese.

  • Deacon Dennis Formation Forum “God, Come to My Assistance, Lord, Make Haste to Help Me.” My Favorite Prayer, Right from the Liturgy of the Hours
    Archdiocese of Atlanta 2401 Lake Park Drive Smyrna, GA 30080 404-920-7325 Summer 2021 404.920.7326 F My Dear Brothers, As we prepare to celebrate the July 4th holiday it seems to me that this is an excellent time to think back on all the ways that the world has changed since the last time we were able to gather for all of the traditions so associated with Independence Day. Just the idea of being in person with family and friends is a sea change. Gathering for cookouts and fireworks will be a great joy. We are blessed to live in a country with the many freedoms that we sometimes take for granted. One of our greatest gifts is religious liberty. It is not lost on me that having spent nearly a year and a half in so much isolation due to the pandemic, the fact that we can come together and worship, praising God in our communities is no small thing. Receiving the news from the Archbishop that we will once again host the Eucharistic Congress on June 17-18, 2022, the 25th Archdiocesan Congress, has been a real cause for celebration. Y’all will be hearing more from me on that soon! As we begin this Summer, my prayer is that all of you and your families will be safe. I pray that you will have time to gather with others to catch up and rekindle relationships that may have been strained with the stresses of the last many months. I imagine that many of you, like me and mine, will be heading to the beach or mountains for some rest and relaxation.

  • Address of the Abbot Primate to the Holy Father at the Audience of 8 September 2016
    Address of the Abbot Primate to the Holy Father at the Audience of 8 September 2016 Holy Father, Warm greetings and sincere thanks to you for our joy in welcoming us today, we abbots and conventual priors together with representatives of the Benedictines from throughout the world. We also have with us guests from the Eastern Churches and an Anglican representative who are very close to our hearts. Every four years, the superiors meet in Rome for the Congress of Abbots. Among other things, we discuss the current situation of our monasteries, the formation of young people, continuing education, and the situation of our Athenaeum and College of Sant’Anselmo. We represent 7,000 monks, while our nuns and sisters number 14,000. With regard to the nuns, we thank you for your Apostolic Constitution "Dei Vultum quaerere". The nuns feel very encouraged. We do not live in strong times, but we are not pessimistic. There are some vocations, with the situation changing from culture to culture. We are aware that beyond the celebration of the liturgy, there is need for the revitalization of community life. Therefore, our communities have welcomed heartily your challenge of mercy and are transmitting it during days of study across a broader setting. Our monasteries are involved in a multitude of activities, and I would like to mention only a few events: Due to the needs generated by current migration, quite a number of monasteries especially in Germany and Austria have welcomed refugees within their walls. In our schools, we form 160,000 students. An international commission oversees the Benedictine profile of education.

  • ABOUT the DIACONATE WHAT IS a DEACON? a Deacon Is One of Three Distinct Orders of Ordained Ministers (Bishops, Priests, Deacons) in the Episcopal Church
    ABOUT THE DIACONATE WHAT IS A DEACON? A deacon is one of three distinct orders of ordained ministers (bishops, priests, deacons) in the Episcopal Church. Within the Anglican Communion, an individual becomes a deacon by being ordained by a bishop after having completed a course of study and formation. This is in contrast to other traditions that use the title for lay persons elected to responsible governing positions in their churches. THE CHARGE TO A DEACON AT ORDINATION God now calls you to a special ministry of servanthood directly under your bishop. In the name of Jesus Christ, you are to serve all people, particularly the poor, the weak, the sick, and the lonely. As a deacon in the Church, you are to study the Holy Scriptures, to seek nourishment from them, and to model your life upon them. You are to make Christ and his redemptive love known, by word and example, to those among whom you live, and work, and worship. You are to interpret to the Church the needs, concerns, and hopes of the world. You are to assist the bishop and priests in public worship and in the ministration of God's Word and Sacraments, and you are to carry out other duties assigned to you from time to time. At all times, your life and teaching are to show Christ's people that in serving the helpless they are serving Christ himself. From The Book of Common Prayer, page 543 WHAT IS THE MINISTRY OF A DEACON? The word deacon derives from the Greek word Diakonos meaning servant or minister and the biblical concept of Diakonia is commonly defined as service, particularly to the poor, sick, and oppressed.

  • Sally N. Vaughn, Archbishop Anselm 1093–1109. Bec Missionary
    Mittelalter – Moyen Âge (500–1500) Sally N. Vaughn, Archbishop Anselm 1093–1109. Bec Missionary, Canterbury Primate, Patriarch of Another World, Aldershot, Hampshire (Ashgate Publishing) 2012, XXI–287 p. (The Archbishops of Canterbury Series), ISBN 978-1-4094-0121-6, GBP 55,00. rezensiert von/compte rendu rédigé par Brian Patrick McGuire, Kalundborg The Archbishops of Canterbury series promises »authoritative studies« on these men (and hopefully one day women), and Sally Vaughn’s work on Anselm certainly presents this archbishop in a full and convincing manner. This book is the work of a mature scholar who has had time to review a lifetime of reading and thinking about Anselm. In 166 pages of text and under a hundred pages of documents, thankfully in both Latin and English, Vaughn provides what must be the most complete and succinct introduction to Anselm now available. Back in the early 1970s I remember telling R. W. Southern that he had to take into consideration the challenge of Sally Vaughn in seeing Anselm as a politically adept player in the power politics of England. Southern’s view in his 1963 biography, »Saint Anselm and his Biographer«, was that the man was not really interested in such influence, for he wanted to withdraw into conversations with God. In his 1990 revised study, »Saint Anselm. A Portrait in a Landscape«, Southern took into consideration Vaughn’s view of Anselm. He did not entirely agree with her, but he had enjoyed fruitful contacts with her in discussing their common archbishop, and certainly he modified his interpretation and provided a more politically-aware Anselm.

    The Relationship between Bishops, Synods, and the Metropolitan-Bishop in the Orthodox Canonical Tradition Alexander Rentel Beginning with St. Basil the Great, Orthodox canonists maintain an eye both on the canons themselves and the practice of the Church. St. Basil said towards the end of his Third Canon that it is necessary “to know those things according to the strict rule and those things that are customary.” This two-fold task of a canonist reflects the nature of the canons themselves, which are literary expressions of what the Church considers to be normative. Various Church councils and fathers drafted the canons, which now form the corpus canonum, during the first millennium. The canons however are theological responses to particular problems and in no way comprehensively describe all aspects of Church life. The life of the Church was and is much more extensive. Consequently the vast reservoir of experience that the Church has needs to factor into any canonical activity. Since the canons are fixed points of reference through their acceptance, they provide the starting point for canonical work. And, as with any text of late antiquity, they require careful reading and explanation. Additionally, because they emerge from within the Church (fathers, councils, etc.), they take their full meaning for the Church only when considered in a broad ecclesial context. All of the tools, the material, and the methods a canonist has at hand are formed and forged by the Church. In this way, the canons are understood as theological formulations and the canonist finds his work as a theologian. This essay has as its subject the age-old question of primacy in the Church.
