You are so extravagant Jesus

You are so extravagant, Jesus - unbelievably extravagant in everything you do.

To use the word "economy" when it comes to describing you is insulting and

belittling. For you made a super abundance of things that are of no use to

anybody. How many cast a second glance at the sunrise and sunsets. Yet both

go flaunting around the skies like women parading their new dresses. How

many of us bother our heads about a field full of varnished buttercups? We

can't eat them. Yet you find buttercups so cheap and fascinating to produce

that golden carpets flop around everywhere. Then there's the huge heaving

seas. Why make so much water, Jesus, we can't drink it and all those

snowflakes endlessly parachuting to earth; why send so many and each one a

different pattern and shape? Sheer extravagance! No Jesus, you are by no

means economical. Even the picnic on the hill resulted in 12 baskets full of

leftovers; and it wasn't six botdes of well water that you changed into wine but

six thirty gallon stone jars full. Once again sheer extravagance. Then there

were those fishermen bobbing about in their boats all night without catching

so much as a sardine. You just spoke the word and their net was crammed to

breaking point with flapping silver fish. Just like you Lord; not content to give

an average catch it had to be an extravagant one. Mary of Bethany was

extravagant in her worship of you and everyone cried "economise" but you

said " This woman's extravagance will be praised and remembered forever"

And what about me Lord. What have I ever done that you should shower me

with riches; wealth, friendship and love as you do. Good my child. You are

beginning to glimpse a hue in the rainbow of my character. Extravagance to a

wild and careless degree is the characteristic of my father and me. I was never

precise, calculating and . sensible when it came to giving hfe and love for you

on that dark hill. When it came to loving you, I knew nothing of economy and

that is why I have the reputation; in heaven anyway of being the most

extravagant person ever to walk the dust paths of this planet.

Your common sense child is all very well in petty and paltry things but it can

never be made the bedrock of life, for common sense usually produces

timidity and timidity tags along with economy. You see its possible to be so

economical that no risks are taken, nothing ventured, everything speculated.

Consequentially, faith is abandoned for common sense and my life is robbed

of all excitement and adventure. You cannot hoard yourself up for a rainy day,

and justify it in the light of my teaching You must give yourself extravagantly,

for security in the wisdom of your own economic prowess is directly opposite

to the extravagance of my father, who revels in feeding birds, cultivatmg grass

and inventing flowers; simply because - because he enjoys doing it.

Easter Celebration This edition of our magazine comes to you over the Easter Season from

the observance of Lent to the glorious celebration of Easter Sunday.

It can be very easy for us to pass over the sadness and joy of this sea­son without a second thought. We all have cares and worries, hopes and dreams - for us and for our families and friends. So what does this Easter Season mean to you? Is it a time for reflection, looking back to where and what you were doing this time last year? For many in our communities the year is tinged with sadness at the death of ones we love. There may be loss through the pain of separation in some way, maybe through the breakdown of a relationship? Or is it a time when you look forward to the future?

This Lent I am reading a book calledzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA "The Language of Tears, Their gift, mystery & meaning" (i). A brief explanation to the book on the back cover reads "IHuman beings are thought to be the only creatures to shed tears of emotion... We weep tears in joy, pain, relief, bewilder-ment, loss and more besides." Rather than being a source of shame, pity or embarrassment, tears ought to be a window into our emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing. There are different kinds of tears, in­cluding those which keep our eyes lubricated (continuous or basal tears). This type of tear keeps the eyes most and bacteria free. We may shed tears when we get smoke or dust in our eyes (to say nothing of trying to chop an onion!), reflex tears. The "emotional tears", in times of stress, release hormones and toxins. When the phrase "have a good cry" (2) is voiced there is some evidence to suggest that it is indeed good for us*.

People say that it's not manly to cry, "man up" is a phrase that come to mind today. Like Runcorn, I don't believe that the gender specific focus on emotions is helpful. When we read the Bible we see that Jesus cried at the death of his Lazarus (John 11:35). Jesus also cried over the city

of Jerusalem (Luke 13) and he cried in the garden of Gethsemane 'My zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBAFather, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; yet not what I want but what you want' (Matt 26:39). Jesus lamented, cried for others, a city he loved and he cried for everyone, evermore.

On the cross when Jesus died and said is finished" he brought to a close that fractured relationship between humanity and God. He did it once for all. So instead of seeing the world, in its chaotic state, our na­tion in turmoil focus this year on that phrase, "It is finished". Consider that each day is both Good Friday and Easter SundayzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA (3), because Christ's presence is with us, through his crucifixion and resurrection, every day. Cry for loss and cry for Joy because The Lord is here. Je ­sus' resurrection points us forward to a time when "God will wipe every tear from our eyes. Death will be more more; no mourning and crying and pain will be no more" (Revelation 21:4).

With my continued prayers for a very Happy Easter, Revd Janet

in so doing lie asked us to live within the limits of the natural world.

Incarnation also means sacrifice: God's self-giving for the sake of others. The

Gospel says that Jesus is the Son of God 'close to his Father's heart' but also

an authentic human being embedded in history and a place on Earth.

The out-working of that was seen in his ministry through healing; working

inclusively with people in all sections of society; responding to those rejected

with love and understanding; reshaping the Sabbath; walking in the light of

truth; teaching; serving. The goal of Christian discipleship is to be 'where

Jesus is' and what that means in today's world.

Augustine wrote about Psalm 96, saying Adam's seed was scattered across the

world but broke into warring fragments imtil it was rescued by the fire of love

of Jesus. Hans Khan said the kingdom of God is creation healed, as expressed

by Pontius Pilate at the trial of Jesus when he saidzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA 'ecco home'- here is man.

Then came the darker comments. Nigel Lawson wrote dubiously that the Earth

is very resilient and when things take a wrong direction we can rely on

technology to rescue it. Boris Johnson wrote that greed is the driver of growth

so it is good but when growth exceeds our ability to feed ourselves be very

afraid. St John's Gospel gives a very different sort of message - hope comes

from God when we see His glory not from greed but from generosity; restraint

scourging despair; hope from an authentic humanity to do justice through a

caring spirit.

After the talk there was a discussion on how the church as an institution

should be providing a moral framework for action on climate change; how

activists can engage with it in a practical way. The Catholic Church seems to

be ahead of the Anglicans in this respect following the recent encyclical by

Pope Francis so there is some catching up for others to do.

One question asked about the wider picture of creation - has God not a sense

of himiour seeing humanity's feeble and perhaps fruitless attempts to control

itself Is it not part of God's plan for us to become engaged not just with the

Earth and its doubtful destiny but with the whole of Creation across this and

other universes? As human animals we are not physically capable of doing that

imless we adapt, engaging with artificial intelligence to be like robots and that

could mean a wholesale change in our human nature. The day of judgement

will probably come to those like the Neanderthals who fail to adapt for whom

it will be the end of days. The Bishop replied that if we can mend our ways

and seek God there will be no need for any of that. God has thrown down His

challenge.

Hope rediscovere d A talk to the Norfolk & Norwich Theological Society on 28 Feb 2019; given by Bishop David

Atkinson, PhD, MLitt, MA Oxon., BSc; a science teacher who was ordained in 1973 and later

became the Bishop of Thetford, 2001-09. What follows is a precis from his notes. (Richard in

Gunton)

Among our many anxieties is the threat posed by the abuse of our

environment; the squandering of its natural resources threatening to trigger

catastrophic climate change and endangering our planet, yet God's wisdom is

embedded in its creation which has come to us as a gift entrusting in us its

safety. This raises questions about who we are, our destiny and how we can

flourish in a sustainable world. In the present circumstance where the world is

riven by social and economic inequality, it is difficult to see that happening.

Even in the 17thc Francis Bacon wrote that we aspire to be the masters of

nature yet we damage it without thinking of the consequences as though we

are but innocent children in the Garden of Eden. We eat, drink and be merry

hoping that tomorrow will look after itself

The Hebrew Scriptures say that God's wisdom is embedded in all creation but

some aspects of it have a dark side. Creation is in jeopardy due to human sin

and selfishness. He made it fit for purpose and we humans are part of that

design which includes an obligation to care for God's earth. God has set

boundaries for our behaviour wanting us to embrace bio-diversity and the

ability to live in harmony with His creatures. The Bible tells us there is a

triangular relationship linking God, humanity and the Earth. Wisdom is the

Mediator that binds this triangle together.

That wisdom is embodied in Jesus of Nazareth. The wisdom the Hebrew Bible

speaks of is the same as the 'Word' in the fourth Gospel - that of St John in

which he says God holds all things together with a sense of order. The Book of

Proverbs describes that saying wisdom was embedded in nature when Jesus

became man, unifying the divine with earthy things. Psalm 104 expresses the

joy that God takes in His creation. In all His works He delights and we can

help Him to continue to do that. Colossians 1, asks us what is behind Nature's

order? I f the Earth is the Lord's we are called to give it allegiance in our

ethical behaviour. When we damage the environmental it causes the Earth to

wither. That is a sin. Isaiah 24; says the inhabitants of the Earth are polluting

it. Injustice we need to hear the cry of the Earth and the Poor. Professor Mary

Corey claims this is not optional as it is at the heart of our human identity.

Through caring, the true relationship between God, humans and other living

creatures can be restored. In the incarnation of Jesus, God became human and

you prefer, printed copies of the survey will be available from the

school office fromzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA 1 April. The survey should take no longer than

a minute to complete.

Please have a look at the school website to see what the children

have been doing. The address is

Additiona l Classroo m Projec t

The increase in pupil numbers brings with it more immediate

needs. The school has three designated classes but we are

currently running four classes. To accommodate the fourth class,

the library has been converted into a small classroom. However,

this is only a temporary solution. There is no sink, makingzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA arhA /ork

difficult to organise; no space for display / role play / reading

corners etc.; very little room for tables and chairs; limited carpet

space and no storage facilities.

In response to the needs of the children, Governors have initiated

an additional classroom project. This will take the form of a fully

equipped 'Log Cabin' style classroom. A funding bid has been

submitted to the Norwich Diocesan Board of Education and is

being considered. It is anticipated that this classroom will be

available for use in September.

Health y Pupil s Capita l Fundin g Projec t This is a small capital project currently underway with completion

expected in the summer term. This project will help us to develop

our outdoor learning opportunities including provision of some

raised beds, composting facilities and the building of a cob oven,

all of which will greatly enhance outdoor learning experiences for

our children.

Setting the scene: Local churches face significant challenges such as a

lack of mcome, more being asked of small numbers of people, buildings

that are difficult to maintain and use as a base for mission. We are being

asked to do more with less - as are many others.

Over 3 billion people live outside the formal economy and face significant

needs in health, education, energy, food, & finance. However, there has

also been real growth in community groups with limited resources, creating

faster, better and cheaper solutions. This movement is called 'Frugal

Iimovation'.

This day will introduce the ideas behind Frugal Innovation, show examples

of how it has transformed lives, and help us discover what we can do in our

own contexts.

This is a workshop and numbers are limited to twenty participants. There

Excitin g time s ahead for St. Mary' s School , Roughton

Our 'Dream for St. Mary's Primary School' is starting to take

shape with a number of Capital Projects on the horizon.

New Schoo l Hall Projec t Since 2015, the number of pupils on roll at St. Mary's has

increased from 50 to 80. Over the last year, Governors have

become increasingly aware that the current teaching and

administrative facilities at St. Mary's have their limitations. With

classes ofzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA behA /een 16 and 25, indoor P E in the hall is a

challenge, at lunch times the older children need to eat their

packed lunches in the classroom. At times of celebration, when

parents are invited to join their children, space for everyone in the

hall is limited when Fire regulations must be considered.

The Governors of St. Mary's are committed to finding a solution.

Along with representatives from the Committee of Roughton Play­

group, they are in the early stages of planning a new building

which would also offer a facility for use by the whole community

outside school hours. This building would include a hall to provide

for the needs of the school, facilities for Playgroup and further de­
