Grail: September 2010

When I was in college, I once stumbled into a

lecture by an art historian talking about Byzan-tine art. In a side note he commented that people

in the West were sometimes snobbish toward

Eastern Orthodox Iconography, seeing it as

backward and child-like. He observed that this

was a misunderstanding of the history of Icons,

and the result of a number of assumptions car-

ried over from western art which saw the revival

of realism in the renaissance as superior in skill

to what came before. It would be a mistake, he

argued, to see Icons as primitive because they

were less realistic, or to believe that they were

not realistic because the artists lacked the ability

to portray their subjects realistically. Instead, hepointed out, Icons grew out of the more realistic

tradition of Greco-Roman funeral portraiture and

that, at least in the East, the artists were capable

of presenting a subject in a more realistic man-

ner and simply chose not to.

He went on with his lecture, but his comments

stuck with me and inspired me to do quite a

bit of reading about Icons, their idioms and

symbolism.

Fast forward to this summer. Anna had already

been in California visiting her family for a

week or so, and I was preparing to join her forour vacation. So what do you want to do when

you get here?, the question came. In think-

ing about it, there wasnt much beyond going

to the beach that crossed my mind. But then I

was reading a random article online and saw a

reference to funerary portraits, with the image

associated with the article being listed as taken

from a display at the Getty in Los Angeles. Im-

mediately the remarks of that historian crossed

my mind and my interest was piqued. I didsome research and found that the Getty Villa in

Malibu California is devoted to ancient Greek,Etruscan and Roman artifacts, and that they had

a whole collection of funerary portraits. Speci

cally, they had several examples of mummyportraits from Roman Egypt on display.

When I learned this, I knew I had to take the

opportunity to see this exhibit, since thesemummy portraits are the artistic ancestor ofChristian Icons.

When most of us think of mummies, we tend

to think of Ancient Egypt, but the practice ofmummication continued through the rst

centuries A.D. and was widespread in Ro-

man Egypt. Funeral portraits emerged, which,

while realistic in some ways, were also often

painted from set patterns, making them easier to

produce in higher quantities. For some reason,

however, the practice of painting funerary por-

traits seems to have died out in Roman Egypt by

the middle of the third century A.D., which co-

incides with the rise of Christianity. Once Chris-

tianity became the dominant faith tradition, the

old art of panel painting continued on in Coptic

(Egyptian) and other forms of Iconography, butwith some distinctive changes.

Just as the old funeral portrait artists have stan-dardized some characterizations, to which they

would add an individuals distinctive features,there was a degree of standardization that arosein Christian iconography. Certain saints would

be depicted in particular ways, certain posesbecame standard. As one author notes:

How have we been changed?


2/102

Continued from p. 1

The Eastern Church tradition places words and images on an equal

footing. The great theologian St. John of Damascus (c. 675749)

points out that just as words encourage hearing, so do images

stimulate the eyes. He regards words written in books as verbal

icons. The text or speech expresses a mental picture. This funda-

mental equivalence between words and images, between theology

and iconography leads implicitly to the forms being standardized.

In addition to standardization for the purpose of conveying

specic doctrines, there was also a shift in style. Realism becameless emphasized as things became someone disproportionate. Eyes

became larger, noses and ngers longer in part to communicate

the idea that the gures being presented no longer exist as we do.

In paradise their senses will be heightened. Feet are depicted so as

not to really touch the ground, but give the slight feeling of hover-

ing, and eyes do not look where one would expect. For example,

in many icons of Mary with the infant Jesus, Mary looks not at the

Christ Child, but directly at the viewer, locking eyes and drawing

us in. Likewise the Baby Jesus is not looking at Mary, but over her

head or shoulder, drawing the observers attention upward to God.

I nd all of this very interesting, and one of the things I appreci-

ate about iconography is how conducive it is to reading, to

considering consistent themes and ways of presenting them.

Yet even as I reect on the ways that Christian theology inuencedculture and changed it, I nd myself wondering even more: how

have my beliefs changed me. How is the Gospel altering the way I

look at the world. Thats a healthy question for all of us to consider

You can see the similarity in style and material by considering the

examples below:

portraits from the Getty.

When we begin Christian Ed again on September 12, we will be using a new curriculum that will open up a variety of opportunities

for interaction between the age groups of the church, as well as provide times for small group discussions and activities. Some of the

material provided by this curriculum,Living the Good News, will provide a broad overview of our specic traditions as Anglicans/

Episcopalians as well as the broader traditions of the church catholic. In this months Grail we are including an introduction to the

way that Saints are treated in the Episcopal Church. Following this theme, there will also be a description of the various Saints com-

memorated by the kneeling cushions around our altar rail.

F C 2010

Te Church has set aside certain days to commemoratethe lives o specifc Christians. Most o these days arelisted in The Book of Common Prayerand described in

Lesser Feasts and Fasts.

Some have been added since the publication o thesebooks, having been authorized at recent GeneralConventions o the Episcopal Church. Te Apostles tothe Dea, Tomas Gallaudet and Henry Winter Syle, areexamples o these additions. We remember these men on

August 27.

Te Rev. Tomas Gallaudet may not have been thefrst to notice the loneliness o people with hearingimpairments, but he was the frst to bring their plight tonational attention. He opened the School or the Dea inHartord, Connecticut, in 1817.

Based on methods used in France and England,Gallaudets school became the model or other publicschools or the hearing impaired in this country. At least

10 such schools were established during the next 50 years.

We actually remember two Revs. Tomas Gallaudet. Teson o the ounder o the school dedicated his lie to thespiritual welare o people who could not hear. Rectoro St. Stephens Church in Philadelphia, he became amentor or Henry Winter Syle.

Henry Winter Syle, who had been unable to hear sincethe age o six, nevertheless served as a lay reader at St.Stephens Church. Te son o missionaries in China, he

was educated at rinity College (Hartord, Connecticut)and Yale University. He then read or holy orders andbecame the frst person with a major hearing impairment

ordained in America. In 1888 he ounded All SoulsChurch or the Dea in Philadelphia.

Saints in the

Episcopal Church

For the wonderful thing about saintsis that they were human.Tey lost their tempers,

got hungry, scolded God,were egotistical or testy

or impatient in their turns,made mistakes

and regretted them.

Still they went on doggedlyblundering toward heaven.

Thanks to the generosity of Beth Longmire and the diligent

work of Dare Bauer, Dare Williams Estok, Stephanie Lowe,

Boo Tidwell, the late Betty Ryan, as well as Terry Smith of

McAlisters Upholstery, who donated the upholstery work, we

dedicated three new kneelers on August 29.

Because of their efforts, kneelers commemorating St. Peter, St. Paul,

and St. Simon have joined the others at our altar rail. The following

is a brief explanation of all of the saints commemorated to date.

St. Joseph of Arimathea

The patron of our congregation,

commemorated by the large

cushion in the center of the

altar rail.

St. Joseph was a wealthy and

respected leader among the

Jewish people. A member of

the Sanhedrin, he is referred

to as the councillor (Lk.

23:50). After the Crucixion herequested from Pilate the body

of Christ and gave it burial the same day (Mt. 27:60, Mk. 15:46,

Lk. 23:53; cf. Jn. 19:42, etc.). He is described as a good and just

man (Lk. 23:50) and as a disciple, but secretly for fear of the

Jews (Jn. 19:38). According to the apocryphal Gospel of Nico-

demus he played an important part in the foundation of the rst

Christian community at Lydda. In the De Antiquitate Glastoni-

ensis Ecclesie, written by William of Malmesbury between 1129

and 1139, occurs the earliest mention of the story that St. Joseph

came to England with the Holy Grail and built the rst church in

the country at Glastonbury, but the passage relating this incident

was added to the book at least a century later. Feast day in the

East and the American Book of Common Prayer (1979), 31 July;in the Wester (Roman Catholic), 17 March.

St. Matthew

Apostle and Evangelist. His

name occurs in all four lists of

the 12 Apostles (Mt. 10:3, Mk.

3:18, Lk. 6:15, and Acts 1:13).

In Mt. 10:3 he is described as a

publican. The call of Matthew

by Christ is recorded in Mt. 9:9,

as well as in parallel passages in

Mark and Luke, where the name

given is Levi. He is said to havemade a collection of Christs

sayings in Hebrew and is traditionally held to have been the

author of the First Gospel (which is sometimes called the most

Jewish of the Gospels). His symbol is the winged man, and his

feast day is Sep. 21.

St. Mark

The Evangelist, traditionally held to be the interpreter of St. Peter.

He (and his Gospel) is symbolized by a winged lion. He was a com-

panion of St. Paul and is traditionally identied with John Mark,

the cousin of St. Barnabas (Col. 4:10). His reasons for turning

back from the rst missionary journey on which he had departed

with Paul and Barnabas did not

satisfy Paul, but he was later

with Paul in Rome. Eusebius,

possibly relying on a very early

tradition, tells us that Mark

was the Bishop of Alexandria

(Egypt), but he is also tradition-

ally associated with the city of

Venice, Italy (hence the symbol

of Venice being a winged lion).

His feast day is the 25 of April.

St. Luke

One of the four evangelists,

St. Luke is considered to

have been the author of both

the Gospel of Luke and the

Acts of the Apostles. His

symbol is the Ox. Sev-

eral facts of his life can be

gathered from the Paulineepistles and from Acts, if

the we-sections (Acts

16:1017; 20:521:18;

27:128:16) are parts of his

travel journal. According to Col. 4:14, he was a physician, and it

has been inferred from Col. 4:11 that he was a Gentile (an inference

corroborated by his idiomatic Greek). He was a companion of St.

Paul on his second and third missionary journeys, and went with

him to Rome where he stayed during his captivity. Some traditions

associate him with the brother of 2 Cor. 8:18, a view followed by

the Book of Common Prayer collect for his feast (18 Oct.).

St. John

Commemorated along with

the other Evangelists (i.e.

Matthew, Mark, and Luke).

The authors of each Gospel,

based upon the themes of

their writing, have long

been associated with one

of the four living creatures

which surround the throne

of God in the Book of Eze-

kiel and Revelation; Johns

symbol is the eagle. John is

traditionally seen as the author of the Fourth Gospel, the Book ofRevelation, and three of the Catholic Epistles. He was the son of

Zebedee (Mt. 4:21), and together with his brother St. James and

St. Peter, he belonged to the inner group of disciples who were

present at the raising of Jairuss daughter (Mk. 5:37), the Trans-

guration (Mt. 17:1), and the Agony in the Garden (Mt. 26:37).

The Lord designated him and his brother Boanerges, which

according to Mk. (3:17) means sons of thunder. Many scholars,

though not all, associate John with the Beloved Disciple of the

Gospel of John, making John the disciple designated by Christ to

care for Mary, and the only male disciple present at the Crucix-

ion. His feast day is the 27th of December.

The sponsorship program for the school Jess el Seor is current-

ly underway. Anyone who wishes to sponsor a child and has nothad the opportunity to do so may sign up for a student to sponsor

in the St. Francis Undercroft on the board next to the nursery. Be-

cause of the limited number of children at the school, two people

may sponsor the same child. There are two lines to sign up for

each child. If you have not been contacted about re-sponsoring

the child you had last year, that means

your child has not returned and you will

need to choose another child if you wish

to be a sponsor. The cost per child is

$60.00. If two people sponsor one child,

then the cost would be $30 per sponsor.

You may make your check out to St.

Joseph. On the memo (or for) line write:

Ecuador Sponsorship. If you are giving

cash, please put the cash in an envelop

marked Ecuador Sponsorship. This

money goes to buy the students books

and other necessary teaching materials.

In the past we have purchased chair-

desks, tables and chairs, maps, globes,

textbooks, portable white erase boards, a

supply cabinet, a teachers desk, musical

instruments, posters, computers, and

other teaching materials. Sponsors will

have an opportunity to make a personal connection with their

child at Christmas. During the month of November (in order toget it there by Christmas) the sponsors will send their child a

Christmas card. More information on the card will follow.

May God continue to bless us through our companion

relationship,

St. Peter

Prince of the Apostles, his

symbol is an upside down

Latin cross with keys super-

imposed. Like many of the

saints outside the four evan-

gelists, his symbol relates not

only to his ministry but to his

martyrdom. Our knowledge

of his life and personality isderived chiey from the Gos-

pels, Acts, St. Pauls Epistle to

the Galatians, and tradition. According to the Gospel of St. John

(1:44), he was a native of Bethsaida, a village near lake Tiberias,

and in the Johannine account (1:3542) he is introduced to the

Lord by his brother St. Andrew and given the name Cephas,

the Aramaic equivalent of the Greek Peter. In all the lists of the

twelve apostles Peters name appears rst and he is present on all

the occasions when only a small inner group is admitted, namely

the raising of Jairuss daughter (Mt. 9:1826), at the Transgura-

tion (Mt. 17:18), and at the Agony in the Garden (Mt. 26:37).

He usually takes the lead and is the mouthpiece of the disciples.

After Peter professes his belief in Christ, the Son of the livingGod (Mt. 16:16), and the disciples are silenced, Matthew adds the

Lords promise Thou art Peter, and on this rock will I build my

church, together with the keys of heaven and the power of bind-

ing and loosing (16:18 f.). After the ascension, Peter becomes the

rst Bishop of Antioch, and after several years, travels to Rome

where he was martyred under the Emperor Nero around 64 A.D..

Tradition says that he asked to be crucied upside down because

he did not believe himself worthy to die in the same manner as

Christ. Two of the Catholic Epistles are ascribed to Peter, and the

Gospel of Mark is said to convey his teaching relating to Jesus

earthly ministry. There are historical reasons to believe that his

tomb in St. Peters, Rome, is authentic.

In addition to the feast of Ss. Peter and Paul on June 29, we also

celebrate the Confession of St. Peter on January 18th.

St. Paul

The Apostle of the Gentiles.

His symbol is a sword and

an open bible emblazoned

with the words Spiritus

Gladius, Sword of the

Spirit. Born in the rst few

years A.D. Paul, originally

called Saul, was a Jew of the

tribe of Benjamin, a native

of Tarsus in Cilicia and is

indicated by Acts to have

had Roman citizenship. He

was raised as a Pharisee and may have had some education at

Jerusalem under the famous teacher Gamaliel. His life in Judaism

(Gal. 1:14) gave him his trust in God, experience of the Law, and

a thorough knowledge of the Scriptures, as well as his methods

of arguing from Scripture. As a Jew of the Diaspora, he spoke

Bart D. Ehrman in his book The Lost Christianities, if my

recollections are correct, said something like this: In America or

almost any country in the world you will be aware that Christians

nd it difcult to choose a right Church. If they are Episcopa-

lians, do they prefer High Church or Low Church? If Methodist,

socially liberal or ethically conservative? If evangelical, would

it be large and technically sophisicated, or small and intimate?

Should it be a Bible preaching, or a liturgically oriented church?

Politically active, spirtually focused, and have a strong music

program or thoughtful sermons? Should it have a solid social

ministry? Should it have an active youth group? Should it have a

vibrant outreach program? The questions he raised go on and on,

for those of us concerned about these things.

Imagine the choices facing this church and congregation. What is

better: solid social ministry, active youth group, vibrant outreach

program, having a strong music program, thoughtful sermons, or

small and intimate, etc.? I cannot or will not presume the groups

desires and wishes, but just let me say that I am here to serve, not

in a political way, but hopefully in a Christian way.

In any event, it appears reasonably clear that we must remain an

outreach family since all of the above matters are to be consid-

ered on the question of the direction we are hopeful in attaining,

considering the posibilities. Not everyone can be right, of course,

in this understanding, for different groups within our family,

some may hold varying, even contradictory points of view. I will

remain eternally optimistic that our family will grow in faith,

greeting, and fellowship.

Who knows what kind of religious or social agenda will or could

be formed in the period of one year as designated? On the other

hand, maybe we as the vestry with Fr. Jody can lead the congre-

gation with what precious systems of belief and practices we can

formulate in unison with one another to advance our church, fam-

ily, and outreach programs. We all must keep in mind The Great

Commission (Matthew 28: 1920).

With Gods help, for he will surely be with us, and with the Lord

Jesus Christs guidance, we will advance, for when we come to

know ourselves, then will we become known.

my reflectionfor thiS paSt year

Four times a year, members from St. Joseph volunteer to prepare,

deliver and serve lunch at the Campus for Human Development

at the Room in the Inn, 532 8 th Ave. South, Nashville, Tennessee.

Men and women who stay there have pledged to stay off drugs

and alcohol, attend church and be looking for work. Our Men of

the Church, headed by Carl MacLeod, Jeff Jordan and Bill House

prepare the bar-be-cue chicken, beans, potato salad, rolls and

pecan pies to be served by various volunteers from St. Joseph.

The people there tell us it is the meal they most look forward to.

We have already provided lunch in March, June, and August and

have one more opportunity to deliver and serve the meals this

year on Sunday, October 3, 2010. If you would like to participate

in this wonderful ministry, please sign up on the sheet on the

table next to the Nursery. If you have questions, please contact

and wrote Greek and shows some knowledge of rhetoric. Within

a short time of the Crucixion, he came in contact with the new

Way of the followers of Jesus, apparently in Palestine, and per-

secuted the Church (1 Cor. 15:9, Gal. 1:13). Acts 7:58 represents

him as present at the martyrdom of St. Stephen, and 9:12 as

authorized by the High Priest to arrest converts in Damascus. As

he drew near he was himself converted. Without the ministry of

St. Paul, we can truthfully say that Christianity would be very

different today, and doubtless Gentile Christianity would be much

smaller if it existed at all.

The joint feast of Ss. Peter and Paul is observed on June 29, and

the Conversion of St. Paul is celebrated on the 25th of January.

St. Simon

Also known as Simon the Less. He is represented by sh, some-

times with a bible to represent his call from shing to shing

for people. One of the twelve Apostles, called in Mt. 10:4 and

Mk. 3:18 the Canaanite or the Cananaen. The Greek word is

probably a transcription of the Aramaic meaning zealous, which

would account for St. Lukes

translation zealot (Lk. 6:15,

Acts 1:13), though this could

imply that he had once been a

member of the Zealots, it that

party existed at the time. The

Apocryphal Passion of Simon

and Jude related the preaching

and martyrdom of these two

Apostles in Persia. This tradi-tion indicates that Simon died

by being sawed in two, hence

the history of depicting St. Simon with a saw. In the West the two

are always coupled in the ecclesiastical calendar and in dedica-

tions of churches. We celebrate the feast of St. Simon and Jude

on the 28th of October.
