October Letter from the Clergy

Dear Friends

As I write this, it is more or less the thirtieth anniversary of

my ordination. I was ordained in Guildford Cathedral by the Bishop

of Guildford, the Rt Revd Michael Adie, on September 30th 1984.

This was the nearest Sunday to the feast of St Michael and All

Angels, Michaelmas, on September 29th. I was ordained at

Michaelmas because that feast day is one of the traditional days

for ordaining people. I can still remember the day. It was a

beautifully sunny Sunday. I, with the others who were being

ordained with me, had been away on silent retreat for four days

with a small community of elderly nuns in their convent overlooking

the very beautiful Devil’s Punchbowl in Surrey. We were only allowed

to start talking again as we left the convent to go together to the

Cathedral. When we processed into the Cathedral we found that it

was absolutely crammed full of family and friends and members of

the congregations of the churches where we were to serve. The

ordination service was truly inspiring and afterwards we all went off

to parties! It was a very grand day.

I began my life in the Church of England in a place called Cranleigh,

down on the border between Surrey and Sussex. The first thing I

had to realise was that I had not taken on a new job, instead I had

to come to terms with the fact that I had entered upon a

completely new way of life and maybe a unique way of life. I now see

that on that Sunday at the end of September in 1984 I had

absolutely no idea what the next thirty years as a priest in the

Church of England would bring. I still reckon that over those thirty

years I have seen more of life and been involved with a greater

diversity of things and people than I could ever have done in pretty

well any conventional career.

Page 7: Oct 2014 Broadcast Web... · [Web Edition 25-10-2014] Oakwood Church Springwood Road Leeds LS8 2QA Roundhay St John and Roundhay Methodist Thorner Methodist Church Main Street Thorner

My life in the Church of England has taken me from comfortable

Surrey commuter land in Cranleigh and Godalming, to suburban

London, to the world of this country’s prisons and, through that

world, to involvement with an enormous variety of people and world

faiths. My life in the Church of England has taken me to the

University of Kent at Canterbury, where I did my doctorate, to

rural North Yorkshire and now to the city of Leeds. I have had

privileged access to the lives of many, many people – in good times

and bad - and I have had the opportunity to do all sorts of things

that I never expected to do. I have been involved in more than one

major building project. I have been on the board of a small company.

Involvement with diocesan boards and the ecumenical world has

taken me into parishes all over West and North Yorkshire and has

taken into the life of churches of different denominations. I have

been a school governor for most of those thirty years and I have

really enjoyed my close involvement the life of those schools, not

least St John’s school here. And finally my life in the Church of

England has brought me to Roundhay. I have stayed here far longer

than I originally thought and I have grown to like the place and its

people very much. And through it all there has been the life and

worship of the churches I have served.

And now all of this is coming to an end, for this month I retire. This

feels like the right time to make this move. But I am really grateful

that I have so much to look back on and I hope there will be new and

different things to look forward to.

Stop………………………………………

Are you bored and constantly staying that there is nothing on the telly!

Well we may have the answer.

Tuesday Guides urgently need an extra pair of hands to help with the

running of our unit. After 4 years our Unit helper Lorna Gill has

decided to leave guides and pursue other interests. This means that

there will only be Jeanette and myself to run the unit, along with our

YL (Young Leader) Victoria.

Can you spare 90 minutes on a Tuesday (7-8.30pm) and be that extra

pair of hands that we urgently need to help us continue to provide our

guides with a wide range of activities and outings.

Guiding is a great opportunity to give something back to the community

and more importantly the Guides that come to meetings each Tuesday.

No training is required, but you would be required to complete a CRB

check (no cost involved), as this is a requirement of Guiding for all

regular helpers.

If you would like any additional information, please speak to either

Jeanette or myself or contact me on the email address below.

Night-time Prayer Smiles from Jack When daytime cares crowd in at night Be with us Lord, we pray And let Thy gracious strength of will Take troubled thoughts away May healing strength be with us now The morning dawns anew And problems seen in different light Appear less daunting too Amen.

The Search Where have I put my spectacles? I’ve been looking all around In the garden, in the kitchen But they’re nowhere to be found Those glassed must be somewhere But where? That seems to be The all-important question That is aggravating me Oh, where have I put by spectacles? My confusion grows and grows, Til I look into the mirror And they’re there .... above my nose _________________________________________________________________

Thorner News

We seem no sooner to be writing about Summer

holidays than the first of the Autumn leaves are falling and

October is upon us once again !! We had a very successful coffee

morning held on Saturday September 13th for St Gemma’s

Hospice; apologies that I said it was AFC and MHA which we held

earlier in the year. However, many thanks to all who came and

supported us and made the event SO worthwhile. We raised

£300 in two hours ! for St. Gemma’s.

Our next coffee morning will take place on Sat November 22nd,

from 10am to 12 noon, so please make a date in your diaries now !!

This will be our Christmas Fayre where we will have our usual

cake stall including Christmas cakes, bric-a- brac stall, bacon

butties on sale etc. plus Christmas cards for sale and other

Christmas goodies; do come along and join us if you can. The

money raised at this event will be for our Chapel funds so we

hope you can support us.

The changes in Pastoral Oversight for Thorner has yet to be

decided as I prepare this article for the October publication.

Hopefully, we’ll have clarification by the November Broadcast.

However, our close ties with Oakwood will remain and a monthly

bulletin from Thorner will still appear in future Broadcasts.

THE CHARITY GIVING TEAM SUPPORTS

OUR HARVEST OF TALENTS

STARTED IN SEPTEMBER AND WILL FINISH

ON SUNDAY 12 OCTOBER

AT OUR CHURCH PARADE HARVEST SERVICE

The poster is now available for you to sign up to offer your talents - window cleaning - gardening - hair cutting - baking - baby sitting - shopping - driving - anything you are good at for everyone to bid for.

This is the time to think about your talents and what YOU can offer. You can then sit back and watch the offers come in.

This is a tried and tested way to raise money for Methodist Homes for the Aged who do marvellous work caring for thousands of older people (there are six projects in Leeds) and one of the most important fundraising events we hold for the charity each year.

Keep looking at the list to make sure you don't miss any new additions and bid for anything that takes your fancy. Keep an eye out though, to make sure no-one has gazumped you.

You'll be surprised at how much money we can raise for MHA.

2 October - Holy Communion

9 October - Quiet Prayer

16 October - Holy Communion

23 October - Quiet Prayer

30 October - Quiet Prayer

all from 09.15 to 09.45

Please join us on any or all of the above dates. For lots of us there are few

opportunities in the week when we can stop and be still to allow ourselves

to be aware of the presence of God. We will aim to encourage each other

to do this regularly on Thursdays.

The calming influence of prayer, that time when we consciously

contemplate our relationship with the universe and its Creator and when we

see ourselves as part of the Creator's harmonious plan, allows us to flow

with that plan rather than trying to make our own. Every moment in some

way begins to serve Him rather than ourselves. And this brings a peace and

harmony no plan of ours ever could.

Loving Creator God, We gaze in wonder

At the splendour of your creation. Rich carpeted fields of yellowing grain And overflowing baskets of ripe fruit. A banquet of fine wines and rich food, A feast spread out for all to share. Help us to learn from your generosity

How to share our bread with the hungry And to commit ourselves to preparing

A banquet for all peoples, A generous feast for all to share.

Amen

Nostalgia Meetings – Everyone Welcome 1.15pm on 2nd October 2014 – World War One and 1.15 on 16th October 2014 – To be decided

Since we began on 17th October 2013 we have had 11 very successful

meetings. Attendances have been as low as seven and as high as

sixteen, healthy numbers for this sort of group.

Our chats have covered a variety of subjects: First memories; History of

Roundhay Methodist Church; Blackburn Aircraft Factory; Shopping; The Lido and Children’s Day and Roundhay Park; Jack’s visits to Seacroft

Hospital with a 90 year interval; Christmas; Healthcare; The place I call

‘Home’; Pocket money and treats; Trams and Transport; Organisations

and Groups. We did slip in a session trying to date an old map of Leeds. We think we managed it – “just after the Second World War”. Who would

have thought looking at an old street map could be so interesting and

would trigger so many fond memories?

We are hoping to put together a very special display about World War

One in time for Remembrance Day. It all depends on how much information we are able to gather. You could help by looking through

your family archives, asking questions - even doing a little research if

you want to. I have prepared a hand-out with useful tips and internet sources which you might find helpful. You will find it at

www.oakwoodchurch.info/nostalgia.html .

Our memories aren’t restricted to those who fought. There were major

impacts on family life during World War One and lingering effects going

forward. We hope you will gather family stories, photographs, reports,

records, medals, and letters – anything that makes memories of World War One meaningful to your family.

My Grandfather fought. I am fortunate to have a copy of his service record, a photograph of him in his uniform and an unusual tale about his

younger brother. We don’t have Grandfather’s medals, they were stolen

from his home. What I do have is a better understanding of the effect it had on him as a person, and compassion for the difficult man I thought I

knew.

Many of you will have objects, stories, photographs that you would be

willing to share. If you do please bring them along on at 1.15pm on 2nd

October, or just come and listen.

At www.oakwoodchurch.info/roundhaystjohn.html you will find

information about the war dead remembered at Roundhay St John. I

have been trying to put together something of their lives – a more

Page 19: Oct 2014 Broadcast Web... · [Web Edition 25-10-2014] Oakwood Church Springwood Road Leeds LS8 2QA Roundhay St John and Roundhay Methodist Thorner Methodist Church Main Street Thorner

personal view than gravestone or memorial – and am hoping to have this research completed by October.

It has been difficult emotionally to gather information about boys and

young men who lived or had connections here in Oakwood. The sense of loss of promising young life creeps into one’s emotions all too often. Their

stories deserve to be told. We are the people they fought and died for, so

please find whatever you can and share it with us.

2nd Roundhay Rainbows

We meet on Tuesday evenings 5.45 – 6.45 and work with girls age

5 – 7.

Currently we have 24 girls who come each week and they are a

wonderful group of girls to work with, we have a very supportive

group of parents as well who are helping each week. We offer a

variety of activities, including baking – crafts – badgework –

games – singing – drama – fundraising – outings/visits and

sometimes have visits from other people on various topics. If you

feel your daughter would like to become part of our Rainbow

group, speak to Debra (details below)

At the moment we are desperately struggling with leadership, 2

of our leaders have just, this week, stepped down leaving 1

leader and a helper, we also have someone else who comes to help

fitting it in around her working commitments. You will appreciate

this is not enough, we have a parents rota up and running and

currently relying on guiders from other units to help out, but we

really need 2 more people to come onto the staff team. If you

think you might be interested, do have a word with Debra

2400884 or any other guider, look forward to hearing from you.

If anyone has concerns about any historic incident, there still is time to bring it to the notice of the Review. Please see the letter and as soon as possible contact your minister or the Circuit Safeguarding Officer for guidance and support.

PAROCHIAL HALL COFFEE MORNINGS

Due to falling attendances in the last few months, the final coffee morning was held in September. On behalf of St. John's, we would like to thank all those who have supported the coffee mornings in different ways raising substantial amounts of money for both the church and charity over many years. Thank you Anne Bond and Brigid Jones
