Synopsis
Excerpt from A Pastoral Letter From the Right Rev. C. W. Sandford, D.D., Bishop of Gibraltar, to the Clergy of the Diocese
The Confirmation was wanted. For a like cause, Dr. Lay, Bishop of Easton in America, was good enough to hold a Confirmation for me in our church at Rome. In the different places which I visited I was glad to see proofs that the revival of Spiritual life, which our Church has exhibited at home during late years, has found its way to our congregations abroad. The Ser vices I found conducted with reverence and decorum, and in most places I was told that they were well at tended. It would, however, be an exaggeration for me to say that in no case were improvements needed. Here and there I believe that both pastor and people would allow that a little more life and fervour might be imparted to the Services, and that the music and other accessories of public worship had hardly reached that degree of excellence which is generally attained in England. But travellers, when they are tempted to find fault, should remember that the difficulties to be overcome in effecting improvements in our Public Services abroad are greater than they are at home, while the appliances, helps, and encouragements are generally far fewer.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book from the Right Reverend C.W. Sandford, D.D. provides a behind-the-scenes look through the Diocese of Gibraltar in 1879. Providing a unique insight into the challenges that faced both the bishop and the clergy, this book gives the reader a rare opportunity to see the inner workings and practicalities of the Church of England outside of its home country. Through his travels across the diocese, Sandford shares the importance of the sermon in maintaining a strong and faithful relationship with the community, as well as the significance of encouraging a personal relationship with both God and each other. Sandford emphasises the importance of community and shared experience in sustaining the faith. He travelled through British congregations in Gibraltar, Malta, and Cyprus, addressing topics such as the need for a new church in Sliema, the restoration of historical religious buildings, and the issue of alcohol abuse. He also writes about schools in Cyprus and the need for stronger bonds between the spiritual leaders in that area. This book is a unique historical snapshot of the work of the Anglican Church in the 19th century and provides valuable background information for anyone interested in Christian history, religious outreach, or the history of the Church of England.
