For all the Saints – Sine Nomine
Although most closely associated with All Saints’ Day, “For All the Saints” is often sung throughout the year in Anglican churches and collegiate chapels because its theme is not confined to a single feast. It celebrates the Church as a continuing fellowship across generations, encouraging Christians in the ordinary work of discipleship. In that respect, it speaks naturally to the long green season of Ordinary Time

Music is the oldest continuously evolving grammar of ordered relationships in the Western intellectual tradition.
For all the saints, who from their labours rest,
Who thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy Name, O Jesus, be for ever blessed.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Thou wast their Rock, their Fortress and their Might;
Thou, Lord, their Captain in the well-fought fight;
Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true Light.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
O may thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold,
Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old,
And win, with them, the victor’s crown of gold.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant triumph song,
And hearts are brave again and arms are strong.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
The golden evening brightens in the west;
Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest;
Sweet is the calm of Paradise the blest.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day;
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of Glory passes on his way.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia, Alleluia!

Sunday Summons
Standards Tennessee | Sacred Spaces | Bentley Bell History
For centuries, Sunday bells have called communities from the ordinary
business of the week toward a common hour of worship. On a college campus,
the summons carries across walks, gardens, residence halls and playing
fields, briefly gathering a scattered community by sound.
Some bells mark the hour; others are rung by hand, continuing a practice older than the
institutions around them. The sound requires no screen, notice or
invitation. It simply travels. On a quiet Sunday morning, chapel bells
remain one of the oldest ways an educational settlement announces that
another week is about to begin.
Philanthropy sometimes begins with conversation rather than campaign. In 2002, Donne Bentley Wright of Chattanooga and her husband, Spencer Wright, heard Sewanee registrar Paul Engsberg describe the English change-ringing tradition he had encountered at Durham.
The Wrights offered to fund a ring for Sewanee. Eight bells were cast at London’s Whitechapel Bell Foundry on July 4, 2003 and installed in historic Breslin Tower the following year. Named for members of the family, including Donne Wright’s parents, Mildred and George Bentley, the bells became more than a memorial. Students learned to ring them, and every Sunday they still summon the community to worship.

“From College Town to Chinatown” | The Chronicle of Higher Education, December 2018 This article directly addresses how the boom in Asian international students (heavily Chinese) has turned numerous U.S. college towns into “quasi-Chinatowns,” with examples of economic benefits from Asian-owned businesses but also vulnerabilities when enrollment drops. It covers the nationwide trend across multiple universities.

In 2005 in Louisville, Kentucky, a volunteer discovered that many elementary school children relied on school meals and faced hunger over the weekend. While the organization serves children of every background and partners with public schools nationwide, its name reflects a simple faith-inspired conviction: caring for one’s neighbor through practical acts of compassion.
Local volunteers, congregations, civic groups and businesses work together to place child-friendly food into students’ backpacks each Friday, helping ensure they return to school on Monday nourished, ready to learn and reminded that their community has not forgotten them.
