Anglo-Catholic theology has always placed a special emphasis on the Incarnation of Christ--i.e. Therefore, human beings are endowed with goodness, deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, and all should be welcomed in God's house. Since the origins of the Anglo-Catholic revival at Oxford

University in the 1830's, the movement has always combined a commitment to social justice with the beauty of traditional liturgy that is meant to draw people closer to God. Since its founding in 1848, Saviour has been an inclusive and welcoming community. In those days, most churches charged "rent" for their pews. Saviour was founded as the first "freely seated and freely supported" parish in the Episcopal Diocese of Central New York, on the belief that all should be welcome equally before God, regardless of their economic standing. In the 1870's the church's rector, Dr. Clarke was publicly criticized in the press by another clergyman for marrying "Jews, Negroes, Irish and Germans" as well as Native Americans. Dr. Clarke took pride in and defended making his services available to all in need of a clergyman, including those rejected by other mainline churches. In the early part of the 20th century, the Syrian and Armenian communities came to Saviour and in recent years the parish has become a church home to many members of the Burmese refugee community. And, like many Anglo-Catholic parishes since the early part of the 19th century, Saviour has valued the active participation of the gay community--whether drawn by the aesthetic sensibility of Anglo-Catholic liturgy, a church that welcomes them, or the deep spirituality experienced in a liturgy that encompasses all the senses.

THE FIFTEENTH SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST (Proper 18)

GRANT us, O Lord, we pray thee, to trust in thee with all our heart; seeing that, as thou dost alway resist the proud who confide in their own strength, so thou dost not forsake those who make their boast of thy mercy; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

O GOD of unsearchable wisdom and infinite mercy, who didst choose a captive warrior, David Oakerhater, to be thy servant, and didst send him to be a missionary to his own people and to execute the office of a deacon among them: Liberate us, who commemorate him today, from bo***ge to self, and empower us for service to thee and to the neighbors thou hast given us; through Jesus Christ, the captain of our salvation; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Amen.
