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.

"Many primary schools respond to the period which falls between Harvest and the onset of the Christmas season by undertaking work on the themes of either Hallowe'en or Guy Fawkes. Both these themes have enormous creative potential and draw their basic inspiration from the folk traditions or history of this country. From time to time some concern surfaces from parents and the churches about the use of Hallowe'en, in particular, as a topic, because of its association with Black Magic, evil and the devil. It is the purpose of this booklet to attempt to help schools explore their present practice in order to find an effective balance in their work at this period of the year. ... This booklet draws on publications on this theme prepared by the [Anglican] dioceses of Chelmsford and Durham, both of which are quoted on a number of occasions in this text". -- Preface.

Notes
"A saint, we can say, is someone who knows themselves in God, someone deeply conscious of the truth that, through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, our very humanity can bear the holy. What then is holiness ? .... Holiness is not something one owns or achieves. It is a fullness of life, a human transparency to the life and love of God. Saints are people who have encountered/been encountered by the living God and have chosen to live with Christ, and in Christ, with a particular intensity that opens up the reality of God in real and living ways for other people. The former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams describes a saint as someone who 'starts a chain reaction of new perception in the world, who reinforces, even among those who don't or can't yet believe, the confidence that there's more to us than we had expected' ('Uncommon Gratitude'; Liturgical Press, 2012, p. 68)".
Author "is rector of St. Mary the Virgin Anglican Church in Oak Bay, B.C".

"Sixteen year-old Manche, from Sekhukhuneland, is among the ten martyrs of the 20th Century whose sacrifice is commemorated by new statues on the West front of Westminster Abbey. The statues were unveiled by the Archbishop of Canterbury on Thursday 9th July [1998]. Members of the Diocese of St. Mark the Evangelist are thrilled that this little known heroine of our day, after whom the main children's ward at Jane Furse hospital is named, has been honoured in this way." Includes short biographical note and description of a pilgrimage to Manche's grave.
