Notes
Page 3 of the issue on the "Family of Saints" includes the following synopsis of this article. "Peter Hannen [retired Anglican Archdeacon in Montreal] presents a historical analysis from an Anglican viewpoint of Christian piety to the saints and to Mary. He reviews the Anglican use of the Apostles Creed and the resource entitled 'For all the Saints' published by the Anglican Church of Canada; in both, the communion of saints is assigned a specific role. The saints in the first few centuries were the martyrs. Later, when Christianity was officially recognized, saints were those whose lives were seen as exemplary by the people of their time and region. Mary, as the Mother of our Lord, has a special place in the credos and liturgies. Abuse for monetary gain led to waning piety towards saints in the Middle Ages. However, interest in saints has revived within Anglicanism since the nineteenth century, a significant development of our times".

Be Still and Know was first published by Fount Paperbacks, London, in 1982, and Seabury Press, new York, in 1983 -- verso of t.-p.
"This book has a single theme, but its two parts are difference in form. The first is a study of the Prayer of Jesus and the understanding of prayer in St. Paul, St. John and the Letter to the Hebrews as well as in the story of the Transfiguration. The second part is more directly pastoral in form, and deals with some of the practical aspects of Christian praying, with a digression on some lessons from the English Mystics of the fourteenth century and the Spanish Mystics of the sixteenth, in the belief that they speak to our contemporary world" -- Preface.

Notes
"The late queen had heart in abundance that belied the often solemn visage caught by media hounds and disgruntled republicans. And that heart was shaped and informed by an abiding and deeply ingrained spirituality. I think Elizabeth II was in her leadership, her modeling, her unsurpassed commitment to duty, a saint". "Each of the provinces of the Anglican Communion is autonomous and free to pick its own holy ones; unsurprisingly then, there's more than one calendar of Anglican saints". "Saints are products of their culture -- historical beings, flawed pilgrims en route to wholeness". "In my view, Elizabeth II was an exemplar of holiness, an icon of hope in an often dark and darkening landscape. She was a visionary or a mystic; she wasn't a reformer or a prophet But she was a steady and wise constant in the lives of countless millions and she was a selfless servant devoted to her anointed task".
Author is "Basilian Distinguished Fellow of Contemporary Catholic Thought, St. Michael's College, University of Toronto, Distinguished Professor of Catholic Thought Emeritus, Sacred Heart University, Fairfield, Connecticut and the author of numerous books including 'Stalking the Holy: In Pursuit of Saint Making'".

Notes
The author, who describes his background as "evangelical, 'low church' end of the spectrum, with a preference for simplicity in worship, scriptural teaching over tradition and minimal decoration" (p. 1) decided, in advance of All Saints Day, about Anglicans and the commemoration of saints. Archdeacon Edward Simonton, vicar general and archdeacon of the diocese of Quebec, describes himself as a "high churchman" and "Anglo-Catholic". "[F]or the past decade [he] has been leading the research on a project to revise the calendar of saints and commemorations that appears in the Anglican Church of Canada's 'Book of Alternative Services'. .... Simonton believes saints are an essential component of Christian belief as they show the presence of Christ and his transformative power in their lives. 'The whole point of discipleship is that Christ works through his church. And if no one ever achieved any kind of sanctity in their life -- does any of this even work ?' he asks" (p. 6). "Historically, the Anglican Communion has been slow to canonize its own saints. .... However, the research project Simonton has been working on includes principles for dioceses and parishes to develop their own calendars with days commemorating local people who have shown special devotion, service or sanctity" (p. 6). "Canonized saints, as confirmed historical examples of Christ's presence in human lives, function as role models or heroes of the faith for modern Christians to look up to" (p. 6).
"Torrance Kirby is a professor of ecclesiastical history at MGill University. He says the practice of asking for the prayers of saints is mainly present in high church and Anglo-Catholic parishes. But he does not believe it is compatible with the Anglican Church's Reformation-era roots ... 'it is contrary to the Articles of Religion'" (p. 7). In the Thirty-Nine Article, "The 32nd article states that the invocation of saints 'is a fond thing vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God'" (p. 7).
The author spoke with the Rev. Seth Enriquez who comes from "a background similar to mine" ... Enriquez says he believes in saints enough to refer to St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas using the title, but that they typically haven't been part of his worship life" (p. 7).
