Celebrating the Saints (paperback) by Robert Atwell

For every major feast, saint’s day and commemoration in the calendars of the Anglican churches of the UK, this liturgical resource and spiritual companion offers a feast of readings that reflects the richness, depth and variety of the Christian tradition from the earliest years of the church to the present day. Writings from across the centuries represent the Eastern, Western, Roman and Celtic traditions and constitute a vibrant history of Christianity manifested in the lives of hundreds of holy men and women as diverse as first century martyrs, or twentieth century social reformers. A complementary volume to Exciting Holiness which provides scripture readings and prayers for the calendar, this is now updated to include the additional commemorations in the Church of England’s calendar of saints.
Robert Atwell is the Bishop of Exeter and Chair of the Liturgical Commission of the Church of England. Previously Vicar of St Mary’s, Primrose Hill, London, he also spent ten years as member of an Anglican Benedictine Community and was Chaplain of Trinity College, Cambridge where he also taught Patristics.
