The Black Monk was here.

he legendary ghost of Nashotah House is on the haunt again, this time with a camera. Can you tell where he’s skulking now? If you can identify the architectural detail, the liturgical obscurity or the hidden corner of our campus featured in the photograph at left, e-mail your answer to sschlossberg@nashotah.edu. The first respondent to correctly identify the Black Monk’s subject will be appropriately honored (as it were) in the next issue of The Missioner. 

Myanmar Connection Continues to Thrive

ixteen new students and their families joined the Nashotah House community this August, including those from Episcopal Dioceses and Anglican jurisdictions as various as Albany, Central Florida, Dallas, Fond du Lac, Fort Worth, Southwest Florida, Springfield, AMiA, CANA, and the Diocese of Rangoon in the Anglican Province of Myanmar. This is the second consecutive year in which a student from Myanmar has joined the community as a student, and like Fr. Saw Samuel Nyan Lynn last year, Moses Htaw was introduced to Nashotah House by a Son of the House, the Rev. David Hogarth. A member of the Class of 1964, Deacon Hogarth serves as Assistant to the Vicar of Holy Trinity Cathedral in Rangoon, The Rev. David Hogarth and Moses Htaw ministering chiefly to the ex-patriate community, and also as an adjunct faculty member of Holy Cross Seminary, where he has taught Old Testament, New Testament, Psalter, Homiletics, Moral Theology, Ascetical Theology and, he says with a laugh, “wherever else they have a gap.” How much of what he teaches at Holy Cross did he learn at Nashotah House? “Every bit of it,” the Deacon says. “Moses will return to teach at Holy Cross when he leaves Nashotah House,” he says. “He will be training clergy what he learns here. And that’s who the Archbishop is sending to Nashotah House: those who will be leading.” Though full scholarships have been offered to his students at other U. S. seminaries, the Anglican Archbishop of Myanmar has decided instead to send his students to Nashotah House. And Deacon Hogarth, who helps the Archbishop to identify the most promising and academically able of those students for study abroad, does more than ship those students off to the House. He accompanies them here, joins them for their week of orientation, and sees that they are surrounded with a good support system in the United States. “The experience of coming here from Myanmar is overwhelming,” he says. “The airplanes, the credit cards, the women in short skirts—they need help processing all of that.” The Deacon also takes responsibility for funding their tuition out of his own savings. “I joke,” he says, “only half-jokingly, that I do the Burmese Program here just in order to give me an excuse to visit Nashotah House twice a year. “Obviously,” he says, “this place got to me. And I love to see that it still forms others the way it formed me.” 
