External Pressures Bring Together Diverse Beliefs and Practices at Trinity, Shanghai
External Pressures Bring Together Diverse Beliefs and Practices at Trinity, Shanghai Like state capitalism, China offers its own version of state Christianity. Evangelical theology - especially American Methodism - was once particularly strong here. There was, however, a clear reminder of Chinese state Christianity on the cover where a notice read, \"In accordance with the laws of the People's Republic of China, only foreign passport holders are allowed to attend services here at Trinity Congregation.\" The sermon examined the Gospel lesson using evangelical theology.
Middlebrow Bestseller Obscured: Reconsidering Agnes Sligh Turnbull’s Westmoreland Novels
[...]Turnbull (1888-1982) had a prolific writing career spanning six decades that included short stories, children's stories, two memoirs, and a dozen novels. To date, the rare mentions of Turnbull's novels in scholarly analysis serve as minor examples in larger literary studies.3 Perhaps this is due in part to Turnbullrelated archives being spread across several disparate collections.4 This study places Turnbull at the center of research rather than as a tertiary supporting example. Gynocriticism is a school of literary analysis focused on analyzing the works of women writers written for women readers. Higher education expanded Turnbull's world beyond Scotch-Irish monoculture and ignited her interest in literature.
A Bold Witness in the Shadow of Edinburgh Castle
The seventeenth century Non-Juring schism casts a long shadow over Episcopalians in Scodand. [...]the rector delivers the opening sentence in a deep, booming voice followed by all singing \"There is a green hill far away\" by Cecil Frances Alexander (1818-1895). Unsurprisingly, statements chosen include \"The SEC is really the Church of England in Scodand.\" (false) and \"The Queen is head of the Anglican Communion\" (false).
Beginning Lent in Lugano, Switzerland, Penitence with St. Edward the Confessor
The church, a chaplaincy of the Church of England's Diocese in Europe, is a focal point for Anglophone Christians in Italian-speaking southern Switzerland. In addition to Anglican worship, St. Edward's hosts services of the Old Catholic Church and events of the British Residents' Association. Following the Eucharistic Prayer, congregants say the Lord's Prayer and Agnus Dei followed by the Prayer for Humble Access.
Talented Musicians and Happy Children Modeling Community in Budapest, Hungary
A sign reading \"Anglican Service Inside\" leaned against the main door of Budapest-Fasoń Evangélikus Gimnázium.1 Two floors up, a congregation gathered in the school's ornate assembly hall. The gathering represented St. Margaret's Anglican Episcopal Church, legally Szent Margit Anglikán Episzkopális Egyház1 St. Margaret's, Budapest, is a congregation of the Church of England's Diocese in Europe.3 It is relatively young, dating its founding to 1992 after the fall of communism.4 It also has no building of its own and alternates worship locations. Worshippers arrived by automobile and public bus to enter the grounds of Protestáns Szakkollégium in district XII, the Buda Hills (Hegyvidék).5 A large canvas sign at the street welcomed them declaring \"Anglican Service Here This Sunday 10:30 a.m.\" Down a flight of stairs in the basement of an academic building, tables featured announcements of the upcoming general meeting and a sign-up sheet for seekers wanting more information about St. Margaret's Church. Surrounded by children, the chaplain opened a small glass bottle and explained the importance of the Jordan River as he added its water to the pitcher.
African-American Spirituals, Multi-Lingual Readings, and Poets at Pentecost
Founded by Americans in the 1870s, Emmanuel Episcopal Church now offers an American-style Anglican experience to the large population of expatriates living in Geneva, Switzerland, and working for organizations like the International Red Cross and United Nations.1 As the sun shone and a light breeze blew' along Rue Docteur-AlfredVincent people entered the main gate of Emmanuel Church. A carving of the Last Supper in the style of Leonardo da Vinci was visible on the reredos surmounted by a large lancet stained-glass window that includes panels with Jesus reigning from heaven and as Emmanuel with the natal star. The congregation has undergone demographic change over the last twenty years with the percentage of Americans declining and the number of parishioners from sub-Saharan African countries increasing. Standing in the front center of the chancel, the priest began his sermon using a favorite phrase of Presiding Bishop Curry, \"May I speak in the name of our loving, liberating, life-giving God.\"
Historical Revision in Church
In an essay, Patten characterized campaigners as arguing, \"history should be remitten to expunge the names (though not the endowments) of those who fail to pass today's tests of political correctness. \"s Across the Atlantic Ocean at Yale University, a similar debate regarding Calhoun College named for former U.S. Vice President John C. Calhoun (1782-1850) was resolved differently. In Brussels, Adam Hochschild's 1998 study shocked many when he argued Belgium profited while an estimated ten million Congolese died under the reign of King Leopold II.5 Nevertheless, Belgium's Royal Museum for Central Aifrica glorified Leopold II and colonialism for another two decades. Discussions regarding contested history and racial reconciliation in the Anglican Communion are evident in recent decisions made in the Episcopal Dioceses of Alabama, Maryland, and Southwestern Virginia.8 Journalists often report these events locally without considering them as part of a larger global pattern of historical revision and penance occurring in predominately white Christian communities coming to terms with complicity in the horrors of racism and slavery. Tony Gosling, the radio host of A Bristol Angle on World Politics on BCfm, was in attendance at the service that day and recounted that \"the bishop said he thought Edward Colston had 'lived a life of significance' and there 'may be still some speculation on some of the circumstances around his business roots right here [in Bristol].'\" Gosling interpreted Hill's comments on \"speculation\" as obscuring Colston's role in slave trading leading to what BBC Radio Bristol host Steve Le Fevre later described as a \"social media storm.
A Forgotten Muhlenberg School: Trinity Hall in Washington, Pennsylvania
Trinity High School is an unusual name for a public school. Located in Washington County, Pennsylvania, it is a lasting reminder of Trinity Hall, a largely forgotten Episcopalian boys' school that operated between 1879 and 1906. Today Trinity Hall tends to be overlooked by scholars studying Philadelphia-born priest educator William Augustus Muhlenberg. Instead, examinations of Muhlenberg's influence tend to focus on the five New England schools known collectively as St. Grottlesex. Rediscovering Trinity Hall offers historians an opportunity to correct errors in local tradition, examine ways Muhlenberg's approach was adapted over time, and evaluate ways Trinity Hall helped southwestern Pennsylvanians, like Carnegie and Heinz, move from regional to cosmopolitan elite. Finally, it provides a second church school example from the Allegheny Mountains to complement studies of St. James School near Hagerstown, Maryland.
