In the words of the Trappist monk Thomas Merton, “Neither the ancient wisdoms nor the modern sciences are complete in themselves. They do not stand alone. They call for one another . . . Our task now is to learn that if we can voyage to the ends of the earth and there find ourselves in the aborigine who most differs from ourselves, we will have made a fruitful pilgrimage. Mere sitting at home and meditating on the divine presence is not enough for our time.” I chose the theme for this paper at the Dundas, Ontario public library. Tucked in a book was a card, “New Order: Building a Better World for Future Aryan Generation.” Having a mother with Jewish background, and having recently visited family in Israel, I was alarmed by this expression of hate activity in Canada. I showed it to staff, who later reported having surveyed the area without finding another copy. In terms of the conference theme, “Borders without Boundaries,” the flier spoke to me of issues of exclusion and embrace in Canada. An anthology edited by William Kilbourn, Canada: A Guide to the Peaceable Kingdom, recalls an iconic painting by Edward Hicks, a nineteenth-century American folk painter and itinerant Quaker minister who sought to illustrate the messianic prophecy of Isaiah 11:6-8 (NRSV): “The wolf shall live with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the kid, the calf and the lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. The cow and the bear shall graze . . . and the weaned child shall put","PeriodicalId":81435,"journal":{"name":"Historical papers. Canadian Historical Association.

Ralph Morton proclaimed that, “it is the duty of Christians today to make experiments in cooperative social living which will point the way to this new living society.” Howland House, begun in 1953 as an intentional Christian community connected to the Student Christian Movement of Canada (SCM) and located at 105 Howland Ave. in downtown Toronto, was such an experiment. Largely made up of those who had participated in SCM Industrial Work Camps, Howland House existed through a variety of forms for over twenty years (1953-75). As a 2008 McGeachy Senior Scholar, I have interviewed most of the living residents of Howland House and done extensive background research in order to tell “The Story of Howland House.” The people who were part of this experiment in Christian living were connected to many streams of the social movement in Protestant Churches from the post-war period to the early 1970s, including the founding of the United Church’s Lay Educational Training Centres, the continuing leadership of the SCM on campuses across the country, the Religion Labour Foundation in Toronto, and the Work and Life movement of the World Council of Churches (WCC). These many connections temptingly lead one down paths that, while not directly the focus of my Howland House project, hold promise for future research and writing about this period in Canadian church history. In the research to date, it is evident that the background and","PeriodicalId":81435,"journal":{"name":"Historical papers. Canadian Historical Association.

It was the early spring, 1986, and his teaching career at the University of Toronto was winding towards a possible early retirement. He had planned a big book, perhaps one that would bring together many of the strands of research and writing that had marked nearly forty years of his dance with Clio, the muse of History. The new project was to be a history of Protestant-Roman Catholic relations in Canada. He had sought experts from both English and French Canada to support his application for a major research grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council. He had confided in me that although this would put his stamp on the question, it was yet another of what he called the trial balloons that marked his career in writing Canadian church history. Moir referred to himself, in jest, as a garden variety historian who was merely sending up a series of trial balloons on everything from Canadian Presbyterianism, church-state relations, education, and Biblical criticism, that were launched to allow colleagues and students to take aim at them with their own scholarship and try either to let them fly or pop them down. When the news arrived in this particular spring, SSHRC’s negative decision shot the magnum opus balloon out of Moir’s hands before he had a chance to launch it. While Moir may have taken SSHRC’s","PeriodicalId":81435,"journal":{"name":"Historical papers. Canadian Historical Association.

In it, he asked Nathan Bangs, Senior Agent of the Methodist Book Concern, to send a bulk order of Sunday school books to supply enthusiastic young readers along his preaching circuit. Green explained that he was eager to follow the example of preachers working south of the border whose trumpeted successes in establishing Sunday schools and Sunday school libraries had “given a zest to the cause of Sabbath Schools on this circuit, which it never possessed before.” Bangs, who had himself laboured as a Methodist preacher in the Upper Canadian backwoods some twenty years earlier, was so delighted to receive Green’s letter that he published it in the Christian Advocate to demonstrate to his readers that the Methodist Sunday school movement was advancing not only in the United States, but north of the border as well. Indeed, the demand for Sunday school books in Upper Canada must have been considerable. By the end of the summer, the Methodist Sunday School Union had twenty-five book depositories operating in North America, including one in Stoney Creek, Upper Canada. The cause of Methodist Sunday schools in North America was boosted considerably just about the time Green was putting pen to paper with the establishment of a separate Methodist Sunday School Union designed to counter what was perceived to be the creeping Calvinism of","PeriodicalId":81435,"journal":{"name":"Historical papers.

Burkinshaw","doi":"10.25071/0848-1563.39114","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.25071/0848-1563.39114","url":null,"abstract":"A significant proportion of the hospitals in remote parts of British Columbia were run by Christian churches and organizations. Twenty-six such hospitals in the 1930s were identified in this study; just over were half Catholic and the remainder Protestant. Apart from some largely celebratory work written from within denominational perspectives, little historical work has been done on these hospitals. Esperanza, originally founded as a mission hospital, is a ministry centre with a seventy-five year history in one of the more isolated areas of BC. This examination of its history highlights several issues that will be explored in this study. First, there were differences between mission hospitals. Esperanza, operated by an evangelical mission, differed significantly from some other Protestant hospitals. A second topic concerns the conflicting priorities in religiously-run hospitals after the provincial government began paying operating expenses in 1949. These were highlighted in the process leading to the closure of the hospital by the province in 1973. Finally, the study of Esperanza hospital has much to reveal about the nature of First Nations – Christian relations. Most denominational missions and churches had become largely inactive among the Nu-chah-nulth on the west coast of Vancouver Island by 2000. The reason was often lack of interest on the part of the people but during that same period the ministry of Esperanza was in increasingly high demand and its staff was often not able to keep up with requests for its services. Indeed, in 2006-7, an outcry on the part of many Nu-chal-nulth against an","PeriodicalId":81435,"journal":{"name":"Historical papers. Canadian Historical Association.
