Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Presbytery of Washington: Including a Brief Account of the Planting of the Presbvterian Church in Western Pennsvlvania and Parts Adjacent, With Sketches of Pioneer Ministers and Ruling Elders; Also Sketches of Later Ministers and Ruling Elders A History of the Presbytery of Washington has long been felt by its members and by many others, to be an urgent want; and more than once, action has been taken in Presbytery, looking to the preparation of such a history, but no individual member of Presbytery could, at any time be found, who felt himself sufficiently at leisure to undertake so onerous a task. Attention was recalled to the subject recently, by the action of the General Assembly, recommending to Churches and Presbyteries to put on record their respective histories, as one of the ways by which to honor the Centenary of the Assembly's organization. Acting under this recommendation, Presbytery arranged to hold a special memorial and historical service, and assigned to several of its senior members the preparation of papers relating to the various phases of the Presbytery's history, and also provided for the preparation of concise statistical histories of all its individual churches. At a meeting held in the church of Upper Buffalo, September 25-26, 1888, this special service was observed: - Presbytery was opened with a sermon from Ecc. iii. i, by the Moderator, Rev. Joseph S. Pomeroy. Interspersed with the reading of the historical papers which had been prepared, were addresses on cognate themes, by Rev. J. A. Donahey, Rev. W. H. Cooke, D. D., Rev. J. D. Moffat, D. D., who were under appointment to this service, and by Rev. G.W F.Birch, D. D., of New York City, a son of the Presbytery, who happened to be present. It was the mind of the Presbytery, to have these oral discourses, as well as the written papers, published, and a committee, consisting of Rev. Drs. Brownson, Woods and Hamilton, Rev. J. H Snowden and J. I. Brownson, Esq., was appointed to carry the same into effect. This original purpose, however, was afterwards modified by reason of an expressed preference on the part of those who had made addresses, to surrender all the space to the publishing of matter that was strictly historical. It was found, moreover, that the papers read were of such a character, and so related, that with certain emendations which the committee were empowered to make, they would constitute a well-connected history of the Presbytery, including the antecedent period during which its churches had belonged to previously existing Presbyteries. It is in this way that the present volume has come into existence. A growth, rather than a creation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Presbytery of Seattle 1858-2005 by : Robert L. Welsh M.D.
Download or read book The Presbytery of Seattle 1858-2005 written by Robert L. Welsh M.D. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2006-09-11 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Presbytery of Seattle 1858-2005 is a chronological narrative concerning Seattle Presbytery, its churches and its predecessors, the Presbyteries of Puget Sound and Oregon. The book briefly summarizes the church and Presbyterian history in Europe and in the American Colonies. It describes the history leading to the missionary beginnings of the Presbyterian Church (USA) in Old Oregon with Rev. Henry H. Spalding and Dr. Marcus Whitman from 1836-1847. Rev. George F. Whitworth, the next Presbyterian minister who arrived in Washington Territory in 1854, planted the first churches and organized the Presbytery of Puget Sound in 1858 with two fellow ministers. Much of the early history of the Presbyterian churches in Washington Territory was related to the Presbyterian church in Oregon and early California. The pioneer ministers of Oregon and Washington are discussed. The earliest Presbyterian churches of Washington Territory were organized near Olympia. As a frontier presbytery only three ministers were necessary for organization, yet even that number could not be sustained and the Presbytery of Puget Sound lapsed in 1865 and was re-organized in 1876. Gradually the presbytery expanded and organized additional churches throughout the whole territory. Currently the Presbytery of Seattle encompasses two counties, King and Kitsap, which surround urban Seattle. In 1883 the Sumner Academy of Sumner, Washington began through the efforts of Rev. Whitworth and became Whitworth College in 1890. For over thirty years, beginning in 1909, the Seattle First Presbyterian Church was the largest Presbyterian Church in the nation. At its peak in 1939 it reported 8,818 members and eleven assistant pastors with 26 branches and a session of 110 elders. From its branches and support 24 Presbyterian churches were organized in the Seattle area. The place and accomplishments of women within the church are explored. The first woman to preach in a Seattle Presbyterian church was evangelist Mrs. Louisa M. Woosley in 1894. Largely because of her efforts the Third Cumberland Presbyterian Church (CPC) was organized in 1895. She was the first woman ordained by the Cumberland Presbyterians in 1889, however in 1894 her ordination was voided by the CPC. She was reordained a minister in 1913. The Third CPC became the Cherry Street Presbyterian Church in 1909 with the Cumberland PCUSA merger. Nine women at the Seattle First Presbyterian Church were the first officially ordained deaconesses in the nation in 1915. The slow acceptance of women as elders after 1930 and subsequently women ordained to Word and Sacrament after 1974 within the presbytery is discussed. Anyone interested in the Presbyterian church in early Oregon, Washington Territory and Washington State will find facts and stories of the 196 historic churches of the Puget Sound and Seattle Presbyteries. All Presbyterian ministers, elders and members will gain new insights into the vision, hopes, successes and failures of the church. The book is unique as it is the first extensive history of the Presbyterian Church in Washington since the publication of The History of the Synod of Washington of the PCUSA in 1908.

Book Synopsis St. John's Church, Lafayette Square by : Richard F. Grimmett
Download or read book St. John's Church, Lafayette Square written by Richard F. Grimmett and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2009 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. John's Episcopal Church, Lafayette Square, in Washington, DC is one of the most unique churches in the United States. A National Historic Landmark, located just north of Lafayette Square, and in clear view of the White House, it has witnessed the presence within its walls of more notable civilian and military leaders of the United States than any other church in the nation. Apart from the White House, St. John's Church is the oldest building adjacent to Lafayette Square. It was designed, and its construction supervised, by Benjamin Henry Latrobe, a leading architect of the early national period. From its opening in October 1816, every person, beginning with James Madison, who has held the office of President of the United States has attended St. John's at least once. Several Presidents have been members. Thus, St. John's is called "the Church of the Presidents." A significant number of members of St. John's, past and present, have played very prominent roles in the public life of the United States and the city of Washington, DC. This book tells the story of this historic church from its origins to the present, while chronicling notable services held at it, and key events in the lives of distinguished Americans who were personally connected with St. John's during their residence in Washington. REVIEWS The first thing to note about this marvelous history of St. John's Church is the research. From start to finish the facts are meticulously assembled and clearly laid out to the reader. This alone makes the book worth reading. But it is far more than a collection of facts. It is the story--or rather the stories-- of St. John's Church that makes this book stand out as a true gem with very few equals in the annals of Church History. --Harry S. Stout Jonathan Edwards Professor of American Religious History Yale University Sited importantly on its corner across from the White House, St. John's Episcopal Church has served both the famous and Everyman without interruption for nearly 200 years, its architectural evolution an index of the development of the capital itself. Historian Richard Grimmett tells the story of the "Church of the Presidents" in "St. John's Church: Lafayette Square" with the painstaking accuracy of an experienced researcher. Flavored with personalities and rich anecdotes, this book begins life as a Washington classic. --William Seale Editor, White House History author of "The President's House: A History." Because St. John's Church has been so closely associated with presidents, cabinet members, powerful insiders and Washington society ... anyone interested in the compelling historical details of a slice of Washington life would want to add the book to his or her library. --Mary O. Klein Archivist, Episcopal Diocese of Maryland.
