  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • Teachers' Notes – 'Michael Landy: Saints Alive'
    Michael Landy as St Jerome, 2012. © Michael Landy, courtesy of the Thomas Dane Gallery, London. Photo: The National Gallery, London. London. Photo: The National Gallery, courtesy of the Thomas Dane Gallery, 2012. © Michael Landy, Michael Landy as St Jerome, MICHAEL LANDY SAINTS ALIVE An introduction for teachers and students SAINTS ALIVE This exhibition consists of seven kinetic sculptures that are operated by visitors. The sculptures represent figures and stories of popular saints taken from the history of art. They are made from cast representations of details taken from National Gallery paintings, which have been combined with assemblages of recycled machinery, broken children’s toys and other unwanted junk. In the foyer to the exhibition, a selection of related drawings and collages is displayed. The collages are made from fragments cut out from reproductions of paintings in the collection. THE ROOTSTEIN HOPKINS ASSOCIATE ARTIST SCHEME The National Gallery is a historical collection that ends with work by Cézanne and the Post-Impressionists. At the time of the Gallery’s foundation in 1824, one of the stated aims was that it should provide a resource from which contemporary artists could learn and gain inspiration. Taking its cue from this idea, the Associate Artist Scheme began in 1989 with the appointment of Paula Rego. The essential requirement for the Associate Artist is that he or she makes new work by engaging with, and responding to the collection or some aspect of the collection. The artist is given a studio in the Gallery for a period of around two years. Michael Landy is the ninth artist to be invited to undertake this project.

  • Retable of Saint Lucy Master of Riglos 15 Maio – 08 September 2019
    RETABLE OF SAINT LUCY MASTER OF RIGLOS 15 MAIO – 08 SEPTEMBER 2019 IN THE BOOK Embaixadas de Portugal, pub- lished in 2006 (Lisbon: Polígono Editores), men- tion was made of the existence at the Portuguese Embassy in Spain (at the former palace of the Dukes of Hijar in Paseo de la Castellana, Madrid) of four fifteenth-century paintings described as being Catalan and attributed, in the book, to Luis Borrassá, the painter from Girona who had set- tled in Barcelona in around 1383, the city where he was to die in 1425. The paintings, depicting scenes from the life of St. Lucy, cannot, however, be attributed to that remarkable Catalan painter, as they date from a slightly later period (the mid- fifteenth century) and clearly belong instead to the Aragonese school. They were talked about, for the first time, in Volume VIII of the monumental A History of Spanish Painting by Chandler Rathfon Post, published in 1941 by Harvard University Press. Post describes two altarpieces that he had seen in Paris, in the collection of the famous antique dealers the Bacri brothers – one dedicated to Master of Riglos St. Blaise and the other to St. Lucy. The two altar- Aragon, middle of the 15th century pieces were similar in their structure: the main St. Lucy gives his goods to the poor c. 1450 figure of the saint was placed in a large central Tempera and gold on pine panel panel, with six narrative panels at the sides, a representation of Christ at the top, and a predella displaying five scenes from the Passion of Christ.

  • TRINITY TRIBUNE February 2021 Issue
    TRINITY TRIBUNE February 2021 Issue Message from Fr. D To my beloved family in Christ, Thanks to amazing marketing, Valentines day takes front and center stage in the month. The focus in the secular world shifts to love; with songs, advertisements, nostalgic refer- ences, and so many other ways to express love. Alas, the English word ‘love’ has become synonymous with romantic love alone, exactly what the secular world focuses on during the month of February. What an unfortunate turn of events. To limit love to one mean- ing when in reality there are at least seven for the ancient Greeks and in the early Church (See article on next page). 15 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love ( ἀγαπᾷς ) me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love ( φιλῶ ) you.” Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.” 16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love ( ἀγαπᾷς ) me?” He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love ( φιλῶ ) you.” Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.” 17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love ( φιλεῖς ) me?” Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love ( φιλεῖς ) me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love ( φιλῶ ) you.” Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. John 21: 15-17 The above scriptural passage gives us a good understanding of the various forms of love and their application. Christ asks do you love me the first two time as a universal type of love.

  • Saint Blaise Sebastea, and on the Way Came Across a Poor Old Woman Whose Pig Had Been Stolen by a Wolf
    In another tale, Blaise was being led to the prison in Saint Blaise Sebastea, and on the way came across a poor old woman whose pig had been stolen by a wolf. Blaise Feast Day: February commanded the wolf return the pig, which it did - 3 alive and uninjured - to the amazement of all. Patron: of throat When he reached Sebastea, the woman came to him illnesses, animals, and brought two fine wax candles in an attempt to dispel the gloom of his darkened cell. wool combers, and wool trading In the Middle Ages, Blaise became quite popular and his legend as a beast tamer spread. He was then referred to as the "saint of the wild beast." Get to Know St. Blaise Saint Blaise was the bishop of Sebastea and a doctor. The first known record of the saint's life comes from the medical writings of Aëtius Amidenus, where he is recorded as helping with patients suffering from objects stuck in their throat. Many of the miraculous aspects of St. Blaise's life are written of 400 years after his martyrdom in the "Acts of St. Blaise." Saint Blaise is believed to begin as a healer then, eventually, became a "physician of souls." He then retired to a cave, where he remained in prayer. People often turned to Saint Blaise for healing miracles. As bishop of Sebastea, Blaise instructed his people as much by his example as by his words, and the great virtues and sanctity of the servant of God were attested by many miracles. From all parts, the people came flocking to him for the cure of bodily and spiritual ills.[5] He is said to have healed animals (who came to the saint on their own for his assistance, but would not disturb his prayer) and to have been assisted by animals.

Archdiocese of Detroit’s Mission Statement: To Unleash the Gospel. Saint Christopher’s Parish Mission Statement: Transform Lives in Jesus Christ Through the Power and Freedom of the Gospel. Parish Vision Statement: Foster a Personal Encounter with Jesus. Pastor’s Point of Perspective. Hello my dear brothers and sisters of Saint Christopher’s Parish Family. Next Saturday, July 25 at 11:00 AM, we will celebrate a Solemnity Mass in honor of Saint Christopher, our parish patronal saint. We were planning to have a parish picnic afterwards, but due to our present circumstances regarding the response to the coronavirus, we cannot. We will have, however, a Mass and gather for it as we pray for God’s Will to be done throughout our Church, state, country and world. On a Musical Note. Every now and then, over the past approximately eighteen months or so, I will receive the occasional inquiry regarding the apparent perceived change in music that is being played or sung or selected at Saint Christopher’s. I hear from several people that we do not play “traditional” hymns anymore, or the music is sad, lacking energy, not uplifting, or no longer joyful, or et cetera.
