From early in their history, the church has developed forms of daily worship. At the<br />
Reformation, the people were encouraged to join in daily worship in their parish<br />
churches, and the 1564 book of Common Order made provision for daily services.
Pastoral letter<br />
April 2019<br />
Technology thrills me yet baffles me at the same time. It thrills me that the mobile<br />
phone I carry with me each day has a memory and an operating capacity that<br />
outstrips several times over the capacity of an old mainframe computer we had in<br />
my first place of work.<br />
That computer filled a space about twice the size of the vestibule in the Old Parish<br />
Church. My employers were very proud of it and many of us who worked with it,<br />
directly or indirectly, marvelled at what it could do as it churned out screeds of<br />
continuous stationery, carrying all sorts of data about the company payroll. Now,<br />
almost fifty years later, even a fairly modest mobile phone, let alone a laptop or<br />
desktop computer, has functions that the operators of that ‘70s computer could<br />
scarcely have imagined possible.<br />
Quite apart from speaking on the mobile phone we can speak to the phone and it<br />
will speak back. We can ask it questions and it will provide answers. I imagine too<br />
that there will be readers of this Magazine who will be very familiar with that<br />
increasingly popular extra member of many a household, Alexa, who will happily<br />
play your favourite music, provide you with the latest weather forecast, switch on<br />
the lights, adjust the thermostat and much, much more, just because you ask ‘her’<br />
to do it. All of that baffles me.<br />
Like the majority of the population I use both computer and mobile phone every<br />
single day. That has become such an accepted part of life that it no longer thrills<br />
me. Nevertheless I am acutely aware that there are vast areas of my personal<br />
technology’s capabilities which are never used, simply because I never take the<br />
trouble to discover how to use them.<br />
In a few pensive moments recently I was reflecting on what I must admit is my<br />
indifference to the possibility of learning to make better use of the technology I<br />
have in my pocket and on the study desk. I began to wonder if perhaps my<br />
indifference was symptomatic of something deeper.<br />
Every single day presents us with opportunities to do good and useful things which,<br />
quite apart from enriching our own lives, might be a blessing to others with whom<br />
we come in contact. Yet I know that I do not use my mind, my body, my<br />
experience, my intelligence (I do have a little!), my compassion, my love, to<br />
anything like full capacity and that surely is wasteful.<br />
When Jesus declares that he has come to bring us abundant life … fullness of life, it<br />
is incumbent upon on us to respond by living fully by giving more of ourselves to<br />
him and to others. Only then can we begin truly to discover the abundant life he<br />
promises.<br />
With all my love,<br />
Calum.

Words of Wisdom<br />
Turn it Over to God<br />
‘Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you’ Psalm 55:22 NIV<br />
Sometimes the best thing to do is – turn the situation over to God. ‘Yes, but what<br />
about all those go-getters who rise with the sun, skip breakfast, and break records<br />
while I’m just ‘giving it to God’? you ask.<br />
Good question. Look at Jesus; He didn’t get started until He was thirty. What about<br />
all those ‘wasted’ years? He left them to God. And how did He react to those who<br />
heard His message, shrugged, and walked away? He left them to God. And what<br />
about those nitpicking Pharisees who gave Him so much grief? He left them to God<br />
as well.<br />
In The Finishing Touch, Charles<br />
Swindoll describes a time in his<br />
ministry when he felt driven<br />
and drained by never-ending<br />
demands. He writes: ‘If folks<br />
weren’t changing, I felt<br />
responsible. If some drifted,<br />
somehow I was at fault. If<br />
there wasn’t continual growth,<br />
I acted as I needed to make it<br />
happen. If a sermon failed to<br />
ring with clarity and power, I<br />
struggled all of Monday and<br />
half of Tuesday. Talk about<br />
wasted energy! Time has<br />
helped; so has age. Virtually all<br />
of the things that once stole my joy and assaulted my motivation I just leave to<br />
God. Don’t I care? Of course I care. But those cares are now place in the hands of<br />
One who can handle them. What once bothered me, I’ve learned to give over to<br />
Him who doesn’t mind being bothered. Whereas criticism used to cripple me for<br />
days, I now do my best to sift, shift and sail. I learn what I can – and turn the rest<br />
over to God.<br />

High Days and Holy Days Days<br />
we note in March<br />
6 March - ASH WEDNESDAY: mourning our sins<br />
Lent begins with Ash Wednesday. But why 'Ash' Wednesday? The reason has to<br />
do with getting things right between you and God, and the tradition goes right back<br />
to the Old Testament.<br />
In the Old Testament, the Israelites often sinned. When they finally came to their<br />
senses, and saw their evil ways as God saw them, they could do nothing but repent<br />
in sorrow. They mourned for the damage and evil they had done. As part of this<br />
repentance, they covered their heads with ashes. For the Israelites, putting ashes<br />
on your head, and even rending your clothes, was an outward sign of their heartfelt<br />
repentance and acknowledgement of sin. (See Genesis 18:27; 2 Samuel<br />
13:19; Job 2:8, 30:19; Isaiah 58:5; Jeremiah 6:26; Jonah 3:6)<br />
In the very early Christian Church, the yearly 'class' of penitents had ashes<br />
sprinkled over them at the beginning of Lent. They were turning to God for the first<br />
time, and mourning their sins. But soon many other Christians wanted to take<br />
part in the custom, and to do so at the very start of Lent. They heeded Joel's call<br />
to 'rend your hearts and not your garments' (Joel 2:12-19). Ash Wednesday<br />
became known as either the 'beginning of the fast' or ‘the day of the ashes’.<br />
The collect for today goes back to the Prayer Book, and stresses the penitential<br />
character of the day. It encourages us with the reminder of the readiness of God to<br />
forgive us and to renew us.<br />
The Bible readings for today are often Joel 2:1-2, 12 – 18, Matthew 6: 1-6,16 – 21<br />
and Paul’s moving catalogue of suffering, "as having nothing and yet possessing<br />
everything." (2 Corinthians 5:20b - 6:10)<br />
The actual custom of 'ashing' was abolished at the Reformation, though the old<br />
name for the day remained. Today, throughout the Church of England, receiving<br />
the mark of ashes on one’s forehead is optional. Certainly the mark of ashes on<br />
the forehead reminds people of their mortality: "Remember that you are dust and<br />
to dust you will return..." (Genesis 3:19)<br />
The late medieval custom was to burn the branches used on Palm Sunday in the<br />
previous year in order to create the ashes for today.<br />
The Collect for Ash Wednesday is:<br />
Almighty and everlasting God, you hate nothing that you have made and forgive<br />
the sins of all those who are penitent: Create and make in us new and contrite<br />
hearts that we, worthily lamenting our sins and acknowledging our wretchedness,<br />
may receive from you, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness;<br />
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the<br />
unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

Hair-cut<br />
A minister, known for his lengthy sermons,<br />
noticed a man leave during the middle of his<br />
message. The man returned as the service<br />
concluded. Afterwards the minister asked the<br />
man where he had gone. “I went to get a<br />
hair-cut,” was the reply.<br />
“But,” protested the minister, “why didn’t<br />
you do that before the service?”<br />
“Because,” said the man, “I didn’t need one<br />
then.”<br />
Board meeting<br />
“There will be a meeting of the Board<br />
immediately after the service,” announced<br />
the minister one Sunday morning. So after<br />
the service, the Church Board gathered at<br />
the back of the church. To their surprise,<br />
there was a stranger in their midst. “My<br />
friend,” said the minister, “didn’t you<br />
understand that this is a meeting of the<br />
Board?”<br />
“Yes indeed,” said the visitor, “but after today’s sermon, I’m just as bored as<br />
anyone else who has come along…”<br />
