- Biographical Sketch
- Founded in 1910, the British Columbia and Yukon Church Aid Society grew out of the earlier New Westminster and Kootenay Missionary Association, informally founded in 1879 by the Rt. Rev. A.W. Sillitoe, first Bishop of New Westminster. The association was continued by the second bishop, the Rt. Rev. John Dart and was formally established in 1902. In 1910, it became the British Columbia and Yukon Church Aid Society. Rev. Jocelyn Perkins, minor canon and sacrist of Westminster Abbey, was secretary for most of the society's life. Special interests of the society were the episcopal endowments of New Westminster, Kootenay and Cariboo dioceses, the provincial theological college, the Columbia Coast Mission and the Provincial Board of Missions. The society was disbanded in 1965.

- Biographical Sketch
- The Columbia Coast Mission was founded in 1904 on the British Columbia coast by John Antle (1865-1949), a Newfoundland priest, deep-sea navigator and yachtsman. Antle was commissioned by the Dioceses of Columbia and New Westminster to explore the possibilities of a mission among the lumber camps on the islands and mainland of northern B.C. In 1905, the Missionary Society of the Anglican Church of Canada gave a grant to cover the cost of Antle's first mission ship "Columbia". This ship served as a dispensary, a consulting room, an emergency ward or an ambulance, a travelling library and a chapel. In a few short years as superintendent, Antle had established seven mission ships and five mission hospitals in the area. The mission provided both physical and spiritual service to the isolated communities. It ceased activities in 1982, but still distributes various funds held in its name.

- "This book was prepared by Fforbez Publications on behalf of the Centennial Committee of the Anglican Diocese of New Westminster".
- Includes index.
- This book "tells the stories of [Bishop] Sillitoe and the hot-tempered Father Pat and the bishop who went to war and the man whose work inspired 'I Heard the Owl Call My Name'. It follows Primate Ted Scott through the Depression in Vancouver and deals with the 'God is dead' controversy and the ordination of women priests. As well as being a history of the Anglican Church on the southern mainland of B.C., 'Pacific Pilgrims' is a story of brave, daring and eccentric men and women and of the bishops who were leaders of this spiritual 'Wagon Train'." -- back cover.
- "[W]hat I offer, cap in hand, is a story in which a few have been selected to represent the many. This is not a conventional history. But perhaps it will help to stir an interest in our ecclesiastical roots. Archbishop Gower said to me, speaking about Bishop Sillitoe. 'I love that man !' And now, so do I. And Dart and Heathcote and all the rest. They are not figures of the past; they are alive all through the diocese, and their stories deserve to be freed from church archives. Maybe this book can be used to prop open the door". -- Acknowledgements, p. 194-195.
- Contents: Foreword / Godfrey P. Gower -- Part I: Trumpets in the Mountains, Cymbals by the Sea -- Part II: The Scholar, the Soldier, and the Grand Old Man -- Part III: Visions and Reality -- Acknowledgements and an Apologia dated August 1979 / Lyndon Grove -- Index.

- "[By] Paul V. Marshall, Bishop of Bethlehem".
- "It is to give some context for discussion of the liturgical and pastoral questions about same-sex rites that this essay has been written. Those who come to this book looking for a theoretical debate will go away empty. The goal here is to give a general picture of what is being done among those now shaping rites." -- Intro., p. 11. "[W]hether of not the Church endorses the blessing of same-sex vows, an enormous amount of work has gone into these rites, some of it representing new or richer language for expressing the sacramentality of life commitment. It would seem that liturgical revisers working on marriage rites of any kind would want to consult the wealth of material of which this essay has provided only a tiny sample". -- Conclusion, p. 63.
