Today the Episcopal Church remembers Isabel Florence Hapgood, Ecumenist and Journalist, 1851- 1928

                                   Acts 7:17, 21 & Canticle 10
As the time came near for the ful-fill-ment of the promise that god has made to Abra-ham,…. another king who had not known Joseph ruled over Egypt …. 
who forced our ancestors to abandon their infants so they would die….  at that time Moses 
was born…  
Pharaoh’s daughter 
adopted him & brought him up as her own son.
 ….  FOR my thoughts 
are not 
your thoughts, nor your 
ways my  ways, says the Lord 


 Isabel Florence Hapgood, was born to a wealthy family in Boston Isabel, a lifelong Episcopalian, fell in love with Russia and the Russian Orthodox Divine Liturgy. She spent  11 years  “translating the subtleties of Russian into equally subtle English.”
