  • 1857: the Mission to Furnish Means for Episcopal Seminarians
    1857: The Mission to Furnish Means for Episcopal Seminarians “The more things change the more they stay the same” might well serve as the appropriate motto for the Society for the Increase of the Ministry as it marks the 150th anniversary of its founding. SIM currently has set a course for the 21st century that requires unprecedented change in its organization and structure in order to remain faithful to its original and same purpose set forth at its founding in 1857: “The object of this corporation shall be to furnish means for the education of candidates for holy orders in the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States.” “The Episcopal Church’s membership stood at about 400,000 in 1857 and would experience significant growth in numbers and geographical dispersion in the latter 19th century.” The need for dedicated, trained and educated ordained leaders of the Church in 2007 remains the same as in 1857, but the circumstances have changed dramatically. The United States during the term of President James Buchanan was heading for the country’s greatest crisis that would erupt into a bloody and fractious war in 1860. The frontier still beckoned settlers to fill the vast spaces that would be defended by Native Americans for several more decades. The Civil War would unleash a new wave of economic development and industrialization and the country would soon be tied together in a new way with the trans-continental railroad. Millions of immigrants would flock to our shores.A nation of 32 million has grown to the 300 million of 2006.

  • James Theodore Holly (1829 - 1911)
    February 24, 2013 Bulletin St Stephen’s Episcopal Church Celebrates Black History Month 2013 James Theodore Holly (1829 - 1911) The Right Reverend James Theodore Holly was born in Washington, D.C. on October 3, 1829. He would become the first African-American Bishop in the Episcopal Church and serve as Bishop of Haiti from 1874 until his death in 1911. James Theodore Holly was descended from freed slaves as well as slave-owners. His great- great-grandfather was a Scotsman who freed several of his slaves in 1772, including his son (who would later become Bishop Holly’s great-grandfather). James was well-educated in both public and private schools as well as by tutors. As a youth in Washington, DC and Brooklyn, Holly connected with Frederick Douglas and other prominent abolitionists. Although Holly was baptized and raised in the Roman Catholic Church, but due to a dispute over the ordination of black clergy, he left the Roman Catholic Church and joined the Episcopal Church in 1851 (at age 21). He married Charlotte Holly and they moved to Windsor, Canada, where a young Holly helped former slave Henry Bibb, edit his newspaper, Voice of the Fugitive. In 1856 Holly was ordained a priest in New Haven, Connecticut. That same year he co-founded the Protestant Episcopal Society for Promoting the Extension of the Church Among Colored People, which challenged the Church to take a position at General Convention against slavery. Holly served as rector at St Luke’s Church in New Haven, Connecticut until 1861. Work in Haiti Even as he continued his religious activities, Reverend Holly was increasingly drawn toward emigration, believing that African Americans had no future in the United States.

The concert was presented by Classic FM’s Aled Jones and Alexander Armstrong, and held in the presence of HRH The Duchess of Gloucester. After her visit to St Paul’s, Tania said she had formed new friendships with choristers from different parts of the country who shared the same interests, and described it as ‘definitely an experience which I will never forget!’ Tania has sung with the St Anne’s Choir for almost four years. “I love being a chorister of St Anne's Cathedral as I have always been intrigued by the concept of choral music and the resonating sound of the music in such a big cathedral as St Anne's,” she said. “Being a chorister has given me so many opportunities such as singing in Puccini's opera Turandot, singing with the St Anne's choir on a tour of Paris, and of course this wonderful opportunity of being able to sing in St Paul's Cathedral, London.” [email protected] Page !2 February 11 !
