Canon Emani Sambayya (1905–1972) was an Anglican Priest, who was born in Bodipalem in Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh.[2] He has been described as an "eloquent speaker and a gifted writer."[3]
Early life and education
Emani Sambayya was born in Bodipalem in Andhra Pradesh[2] on 25 July 1905.[1]
Graduate studies
In 1928,[1] Emani began pursuing theological studies at the United Theological College, Bengaluru earning a graduate degree (BD) in 1932.[1]
Post-graduate studies
Sambayya also enrolled for a post-graduate degree in MA under the University of Calcutta in 1932[1] completing it by 1935.[1]
In 1938,[1] Sambayya went to the Westcott House, Cambridge,[4] for a diploma course.
In 1949, Sambayya was sent to the Union Theological Seminary in the City of New York for post-graduate studies in Moral Theology. In the continuing year, he was awarded an S.T.M.. Sambayya's post-graduate dissertation was entitled The Eucharistic doctrine of Richard Hooker and Herbert Throndike[5]
Contribution
Emani Sambayya first served as the Secretary of the Student Christian Movement and was based in Allahabad from 1935 to 1938.[1]
In 1939, he was Deacon at Christ Church, Byculla. In the succeeding year, he was ordained as a Minister of the Anglican Church in India.
Anglicanism
Emani Sambayya, although baptised into Methodism, chose to get ordained as an Anglican Priest.[6] In Anglicanism, he felt a sense of togetherness as it was a mix of Catholic and Reformed traditions. Kevin Ward in A History of Global Anglicanism mentions this particular aspect which Sambayya endorsed.
Inspired by Anglicanism, Sambayya wrote The Genius of the Anglican Communion[7] in 1948.
Theological education
From 1941 through 1968, Sambayya taught Theology at Bishop's College, Kolkata. He was first made a Lecturer in 1941[8] replacing Rev. John William Sadiq.[8] In 1949, he was sent to the Union Theological Seminary in the city of New York for post-graduate studies in Moral Theology.
Immediately after his return from New York, Sambayya was made the Vice-Principal[9] in place of Canon Manuel.[8] From 1959 through 1968 he was Principal[8] of Bishop's College, Kolkata.
During the period at Bishop's College, Sambayya's articles began appearing in the Indian Journal of Theology.
