  • Open Letter from Episcopal Bishops
    “Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers for by doing so, some have entertained angels unawares.” (HEBREWS 13:1) President Donald Trump and Members of Congress, As bishops of the Episcopal Church we implore you not to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, known as DACA. To do so would endanger the lives of thousands of young people and their families and run contrary to the faith and moral traditions of our country. It is unfair to threaten the well-being of young people who arrived in our country as children through no choice of their own. Ending DACA without a similar replacement program will force these young people to face the future in this country with little access to education and employment, and ultimately, could very well lead to sending them to countries where they did not grow up, have few support structures, may not even speak the language and may be vulnerable to violence and persecution. Any of these scenarios, we believe, is cruel. The alternative for us as a country is to move forward, to celebrate and benefit from the presence of these ‘Dreamers’ and to provide a pathway to citizenship that enables them to remain and strengthen our country. The Episcopal Church has long advocated for bipartisan comprehensive immigration reforms that prioritize family unity and humanitarian concerns. It is time for Congress to develop long-term solutions for immigrant families. In front of most of the Episcopal Churches across the country is a sign that says, ‘The Episcopal Church Welcomes You.’ We have this sign because we are followers of the way of Jesus of Nazareth, and our Christian tradition shares with many other faith bodies the absolute importance of welcoming the foreigner in our midst.

  • Douglas Sparks: Answers to Questions
    Douglas Sparks: Answers to Questions Explain why you feel called to be a bishop, including your discernment process and what you have learned from it. What special gifts underscore your call to the Diocese of Minnesota specifically? I believe a call to ministry comes from within a Faith Community. It is an invitation to consider and discern a call to ministry in the midst of that community. This applies to the ministry of all the Baptized and ministry as a deacon, presbyter or bishop. It’s at the heart of the discernment for congregations considering Total Ministry as well. It is out of this belief and invitation that I respond. I’ve been encouraged by people in our diocese, lay and ordained, to offer myself to the process of discernment leading to election to serve as Bishop of our diocese. The call to serve is specific…as Bishop of Minnesota. The invitation comes from people who have worked with me and know the diocese and its opportunities and challenges. I have spent time in prayer and in conversation with others. I asked people to visit the website, review the survey and other material as a way of giving context to our conversation. In addition to my wife, Dana, and our three children, I discussed this with a number of people. In each conversation, they said they believe I have the gifts the diocese is looking for and should offer myself to see what the Church and Holy Spirit have to say. So I do, trusting in God’s grace. I have found my voice as a Servant Leader during some difficult decisions in the diocese and gained the respect of lay and other ordained leaders.

  • “We Are Together Because We Are Called to Do This Work”
    “We Are Together Because We are Called to Do this Work” Lutheran Episcopal Coordinating Committee February 8-10, 2017 Lutheran Center, Chicago, Illinois The Lutheran Episcopal Coordinating Committee met at the Lutheran Center in Chicago, February 8-10, 2017. This committee is charged with encouraging and assisting efforts in The Episcopal Church (TEC) and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) as they live into their relationship of full communion provided for in “Called to Common Mission” (CCM). This meeting, which brought a number of new members and guests to the sessions, was devoted to looking backward, appraising the present, and looking forward. Specific attention was devoted to collaboration in advocacy, with focus on the distinctive challenges and outlooks of the current moment. A staff member for advocacy expressed the shared commitment of the two churches this way: “We are here together because we are called to do this work – not necessarily because we will ‘win.’” As always, times for prayer framed the days, and the Eucharist was celebrated according to both Episcopal and the Lutheran traditions. The committee welcomed a new Episcopal co-chair, the. Rt. Rev. Douglas Sparks, Bishop of the Diocese of Northern Indiana. Joining him and continuing member the Rev. Jon Perez were new TEC members: the Rev. Nils Chittenden, the Rev. Nancy Green, and the Rev. Canon Dr. David Perry, as well as the Rev. Canon Rob Towler, representing the Joint Anglican-Lutheran Commission (JALC) in Canada. On the Lutheran side, co-chair Bishop Donald Kreiss joined continuing members Dr. Mitzi Budde and the Rev.

  • Sparks Autobiographical Statement February 2017 Douglas Everett
    Sparks Autobiographical Statement February 2017 Douglas Everett Sparks and his twin sister, Debbie, were born and raised in the inner city of St. Louis, and later Ferguson, Missouri. They were four years old when their dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and after being hospitalized for ten years, he died when they were 14. Doug’s mother was a woman of deep faith and took the children to the Baptist Church for Sunday school until they were baptized, at age 6, in the Roman Catholic Church. Financially, their lives faced many challenges and she worked hard to send them to parochial school. Doug had the chance to be a chorister at the Cathedral from second through eighth grades and this experience drew him closer to God, with an increasing love of music and a sense of call to ordained ministry. Learning the story and witness of St. Vincent de Paul was especially compelling for Doug and he wanted to live his life as a priest in service to the poor. He went to St. Vincent’s College, a preparatory High School, and then entered the novitiate for the Religious Order founded by St. Vincent de Paul, called the Congregation of the Mission. However, his Faith Journey took several twists and turns, in and out of the seminary. He was trained as a paramedic and, at one point, even considered pursuing medical school, but the sense of call to ordained ministry continued. Doug graduated from St. Mary’s Seminary College in 1980 and went to Chicago for seminary, where his world view expanded tremendously, including his first experience of the Episcopal Church.

    Holy Eucharist for the Burial of the Dead The Right Reverend James Winchester Montgomery May 29, 1921 – October 23, 2019 November 4, 2019 at 11 a.m. SaintJamesCathedral.org 65 East Huron Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611 Phone 312-787-7360 Greeting from Bishop Lee Bishop James Winchester Montgomery, who died on October 23, 2019 at age 98, was a true son of Chicago. He was born here on May 29, 1921 to James Edward Montgomery and Evelyn Winchester Montgomery, the daughter of the Rt. Rev. James Winchester, bishop of Arkansas from 1911–1931. He grew up in Rogers Park, served as a lieutenant in the U.S. Navy during World War II, studied at General Theological Seminary and was ordained by Bishop Wallace E. Conkling, seventh bishop of Chicago, in 1949. After two years as curate at St. Luke’s in Evanston, Jim served eleven years as rector of St. John the Evangelist in Flossmoor. In 1962, he was elected bishop suffragan, and in 1965, bishop coadjutor. He became the ninth bishop of Chicago on October 2, 1971. Jim’s service to the wider church was exemplary. He was a deputy to two General Conventions, a trustee of the General Theological Seminary, Nashotah House, Seabury-Western Seminary—all of which awarded him honorary doctorates—as well as the Church Pension Fund, Rush-Presbyterian- St. Luke’s Hospital and many other community institutions and organizations. It is a great honor to occupy the same seat as such a gracious man, and I will miss him and his kindness to me a great deal.

One of them said to me, “It’s strange to think that in only a few months there will be a bunch of new students here, and we don’t even know who they are, yet.” I said, “Right, but what’s really strange is to think that NEXT fall, there will be a bunch more students here, and they don’t even know who they are, yet.” It’s a truth that can be hard to get one’s head around: God knows more about what will happen, and has set in motion more of the future, than is entirely comfortable.
