  • Baptist North American Phase Communiqué
    North American Phase 2003 Communiqué The North American phase of the international theological conversations between Anglicans and Baptists was held at Acadia University, Wolfville, Nova Scotia, from 10 - 12 September 2003. This regional meeting follows five previous phases held in Norwich (for Europe) in 2000, Yangon (for Asia/Pacific) in 2001, Nairobi (for Africa), in 2002, Santiago,Chile (for Latin America) and Nassau (for the Caribbean) in January 2003. Participants came from the United States and Canada, representing their respective Churches and joined the members of the "Continuation Committee" which is conducting these regional gatherings on behalf of the Baptist World Alliance and the Anglican Communion. The Anglican and Baptist representatives gave an overview of the life of their respective communions in North America. Seven substantive papers were presented on Common Challenges facing Anglicans and Baptists in North America, Baptist Life in North America, A North American Baptist Understanding of Continuity, two papers on The Nature and Role of the Church from Anglican and Baptist perspectives and paired papers on Authority. The plenary discussion drew together insights from the American and Canadian contexts and related them to the themes emerging from previous regional conversations, namely: continuity and story; the meaning of recognition; mission and ministry; baptism and Christian initiation; membership of the Church; the Eucharist or Lord's Supper; oversight and episcope; and confessing the apostolic faith. Discussion focussed on how each tradition handled diversity of views within their tradition, and the nature of denominational allegiance as well as the diversity between the two communions. The meeting began with a celebration of an Anglican Eucharist in the local parish church, and included shared prayer and devotions conducted by Baptists and Anglicans.

These notes of family history are published as a prelim­ inary study. Only proved facts are given as truth, but in the hope of eliciting something yet unknown, there are noted vague traditions, fragmentary records, slight sug­ gestions of a possible clue, and hypotheses worthy at least of careful scrutiny. He who adds a single stone to this cairn rearing to the memory of our ancestors, aids in a sacred work. Corrections and additions of whatever nature, if supported by proper evidence, will be gladly received by the editor of this book. The record can be perfected only through the sympathetic co-operation of every branch of the family. M. B. F. Poughkeepsie, New York. 1896. ABBREVIATIONS. abt. signifies an approximate date. b.

We are upholding all of the provincial regulations that apply to faith-based gatherings in this area as of this date according to Dr. Strang’s direction. The worship space for this liturgy is considered to be the transept. No more than five people will be present in this space at any one time. The music ensemble/choir is a small family “bubble” and are always at least 60 feet away from those gathered at the Cathedral. They will sing the hymns and lead the litany and sung parts of the liturgy. Please follow all public health guidelines regarding congregational singing. You may sing softly while wearing masks and while observing 6 feet of distance from one another unless you are in a bubble with others. Those gathered at the Cathedral are asked to sing only the Offertory Hymn. Videographers are at least 30 feet from the congregation. A photographer, when present, is at least 20 feet away from the congregation.

  • The Provincial Synod of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada
    The Provincial Synod of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada Presidential Address given by The Most Reverend Andrew S. Hutchison Quebec City, September 18, 2003 On this day in 1893 members of the first General Synod gathered in St. James Cathedral, Toronto for a service of Thanksgiving. No longer were we three Provinces, each owing our allegiance to the Church of England. We were, and have been since that date, an independent national church. It is therefore a happy coincidence that with us is the Primate, The Most Rev'd Michael Peers and the General Secretary of General Synod, The Venerable Jim Boyles In the words of the Gospel, For here the saying holds true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you did not labour. Others have laboured, and you have entered into their labours. (John 4: 37-8) It is a time to look back to what was sown in other generations to bring us the harvest we now reap. Much of it is good and inspires us to thanksgiving. Some of it, in the clear light of hindsight is not. We reap the harvest of the good with the bad. And with such nourishment as the harvest provides, we labour to prepare the ground and do planting of our own for generations after us to harvest. Since we last met in Halifax in September 2000 we have said farewell to the Bishop of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, our 19th Metropolitan, Arthur Peters. The Bishop of Central Newfoundland, Eddie Marsh retired, and very soon the Bishop of Fredericton, William Hockin will join them in retirement, as will the Bishop of Western Newfoundland, Leonard Whitten, and in February, our Primate Michael Peers.

  • The Impact of Tractarianism on the Maritimes, by Canon Robert Tuck
    The Impact of Tractarianism on the Maritimes, by Canon Robert Tuck THE IMPACT OF TRACTARIANISM ON THE MARITIMES A paper delivered by Canon Robert C. Tuck June 30, 1983 at The Atlantic Theological Conference, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, in marking the 150th anniversary of the Oxford Movement, 1833. (revised September 2002) N 1832 John Keble wrote the Reverend Hubert Cornish, one time Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford, and collaborator with John Medley in translating the homilies of St. Chrysostom, as Ifollows: “Will you join me in buying some land in New Brunswick, or somewhere, that we may have a place to fly to in case of the worst? I am seriously thinking of it. I don’t mean so much a place to fly to as a place where one might find bread and cheese if we could not pick it up here, for it seems to me as if one ought to be among the last to leave the wreck.” This enigmatic statement makes an appropriate introit to our inquiry into “The impact of Tractarianism on the Maritimes,” for it brings together John Keble—whose sermon on the “National Apostasy” in St. Mary’s Church, Oxford, the next year provides the reference point for the anniversary we are marking with this event—and who is himself one of the leadership triumvirate with Newman and Pusey of the Oxford Movement—and the issue of Catholicism versus Erastianism which brought Tractarianism into existence—and New Brunswick, which is where the Catholic Revival first flowered in the Maritime Provinces. The “wreck” I understand to mean the Church of England cast ashore on the rocks of Erastianism out of the ocean of Catholicism, which John Keble understood to be its natural element.
