Pae, David Parish, and Joel Episcopal Church brings series of firsts to Utah W. NELSON ABBOTT Guest Writer Tht- Episcopal Church was the first (if tho evangelical Protestant churches with a definite official H'tort to start organizing in Utah. In 1S66. at a House of Bishops meeting in New York City, a 29 year old parish pastor. Daniel Svl ester Tuttle, was elected missionary mis-sionary bishop of the Montana, Idaho and L'tah territories. While Tulle was waiting to be ordained. Warren Hussey, a Salt Lake City banker, w rote and requested that Tuttle begin his mission in L'tah rather than in Montana. Before leaving the east coast, Tuttle recruited four clergyman friends to help him in his mission. The Reverends George Foote and T. W. Haskins preceded Tuttle to Utah and held the first Episcopalian Episcopa-lian services at the Young Men's Literary Institute (Independence Hall' in May 1S67. They also or ganized an association associa-tion to raise funds for a school. St. Mark's School opened July 1. 1S67 in a rented adobe building on Main Street. Three days later. Bishop Tuttle arrived ar-rived in Salt LakeCitv with tuo other missionar ies and paid a courtesy call on Bngnam Young. From the beginning, the Episcopalian policy towards Mormons was to maintain good relations by not directly criticizing criti-cizing Mormon theology or practice prac-tice and instead to win respect through Episcopal faith and practice. prac-tice. Bishop Tuttle and his family stayed in Utah, after a two year hiatus in Montana, from 1869-1SS6. 1869-1SS6. On July 30, 1870, the cornerstone corner-stone of the Cathedral Church of St. Mark's was laid. That same year, Rev. Haskins started holding Episcopal church services in Ogden, initially in the passenger room of the train depot and opened the School of the Good Shepherd in a rented building with thirteen students. During Bishop Tuttle's tenure, the Episcopal church founded additional parishes in Plain City and Salt Lake City, WW V mm founded a hospital, St. Mark's, in Salt Lake City and opened a day and boarding school for girls, Rowland Hall. The Right Reverend Abiel Leonard succeeded Bishop Tuttle serving as the Missionary Bishop of Utah from 18S8 to 1903. During Dur-ing his time, parishes were established estab-lished in Park City. Provo, Springville, Layton. Eureka and Vernal. Bishop Leonard also started the church's mission to the Ute Indians in the Uinta Basin. This solid foundation saw changes under later Bishops as the communities com-munities themselves changed. Some of the early churches w ere closed and others were added. Throughout its years in Utah, the Episcopal Church has sought to respond re-spond to the greatest needs for ministry and to be become involved in-volved in service that betters the community. Bishop Caroline Tanner Irish, who is a native of Salt Lake City, was oraainea as tnc tenth Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Utah in May of 1996. The diocese of Utah geographically con-ists con-ists of the state of L'tah plus Page, Ariz.ona and Mesquite, Nevada. There are 22 parishes in the Diocese, throe of which have Spanish speaking minis tries and three Native American parishes. Forty-six Priests and Deacon administer to the six thousand thou-sand plus Episcopalians living in this area. It is interesting to note that St. Marks Cathedral where worship services have been held since May 1871 is the most continuously used place of w orship w est of the Mississippi Mis-sissippi River. That St. Marks Hospital, Hos-pital, founded in 1872 w as the only-hospital only-hospital between Denver and San Francisco. Also, the Row land Hall-St. Hall-St. Mark's School, w hich opened in 1867, is still run by the Episcopal Diocese of Utah, and w as cne of the first if not the first public school in Utah.
