This collection of essays is written in memory of Roger H. Prentice
(1943-2022). Prentice was born in New Brunswick and brought up in
Halifax, Nova Scotia. A Dalhousie University graduate, he also
graduated from Acadia University and then served as a pastor at
Amherst, Nova Scotia and St. Stephen, New Brunswick. In 1979,
Prentice began his studies in Baptist History at Oxford University
under the direction of the late Dr. B.R. White at Regent's Park
College. Upon his return in 1983, he became a minister at Annapolis
Royal, Nova Scotia. In 1985, Prentice became dean of the Manning
Memorial Chapel and served as University Chaplain at Acadia
University until he retired in 2007. Throughout his ministry,
Prentice had a unique way of combining preaching, leading worship,
and pastoral counseling together with involvement in his local
community. A pastor, author, wise guide, and friend to many, in
retirement he served on numerous boards and committees including
the Acadia University Senate. Prentice's service within the church,
particularly among Maritime Baptists, and in the wider community,
was recognized when he was awarded an honorary doctorate from
Acadia University, the Queen's Jubilee Medal, and the Canadian
Senate's Sesquicentennial Medal. Recognizing his faithful work and
witness over many years, this memorial volume brings together a
variety of essays and reflections on themes including: Baptist
theology and identity, spirituality, chaplaincy and ministry,
worship and the arts, and engagement with the wider world.
