Church Publishing Incorporated is pleased to offer this new and
expanded volume of optional commemorations of significant figures
in the history of The Episcopal Church. It replaces the popular
Holy Women, Holy Men. By action of the 2015 General Convention, A
Great Cloud of Witnesses is being made available for devotional or
catechetical use and for use in public worship throughout the
Church. GCW reflects the lively experience of holiness, especially
on the level of the local community. GCW is accordingly a useful
tool for learning about the history of the church and identifying
those who have inspired and challenged us from the time of the New
Testament to the present. Each entry includes a biographical
narrative of the person or people, highlighting the significance of
their life and witness. A devotional collect is provided in both
Rite I and Rite II language and a set of indexing “tags”
suggests how the entry fits into the broader scope of Christian
history and delineates the Christian gifts and virtues that may
have inspired the person’s ministries. Also available as 3-ring
hardcover foil stamped binder with loose leaf pages and tabs. The
binder allows for insertions and deletions by action of future
General Conventions without repurchasing the bound edition.
