The Return of the Benedictines to London Ealing Abbey: 1896 to Independence |
$30.00 |
| The story Father Rene Kollar has to tell is that of a group of men of vision and fortitude determined to create a new community in a fresh and unusual setting, but one that was still loyal to the principles of St. Benedict and his order. That they succeeded is shown by how "Independence" was bestowed, though not without much difficulty and heart-searching, upon the Priory of Ealing in 1947, the first independent monastery in London since the suppression of Westminster Abbey by Queen Elizabeth I. |

Searching for Raymond: Anglicanism, Spiritualism, and Bereavement Between the Two World Wars |

Father Rene Kollar has studied a forty-year-old report by a committee of the Anglican Church on Spiritualism. Upon its publication, the Lodge book had a tremendous impact on Spiritualism, which seemed to help members of the Anglican church deal with the large number of people killed in the war. |
