5 What does a call from God feel like?

The Revd Liz Brown (Acting Director of Ordinands & Vocations) looks back at a well-received Vocations Day...

What does a call from God feel like? That was the question occu- pying the 30+ people who attended the annual Vocations Day at St Luke’s, Birchwood in Lincoln. The day was designed to allow peo- ple who believe God could be calling them to something new and deeper to meet with others, share their experiences and hear about some of the possible ministries available in the Church of .

From the outset we hoped to make it clear that when we talk about vocations we don’t have a mental picture of a big iced bun with priesthood as the cherry on the top. The wide variety of ministries open to people is something we haven’t always been good at com- municating, so this day was put together with the intention of be- ing about vocation, rather than specifically about ordination.

We heard from people whose vocations had led them in many dif- ferent directions and included those who were certain their calling was to a lay ministry. Dr Sally Buck, Warden of Lay Ministry, and I shared something of own own respective discernment journeys, one to a calling to minister from within a lay context and the other to ordained ministry. We also heard from a distinctive deacon, an authorised lay minister, a priest who had experienced ministry as an ordained local minister and as a stipendiary minister, and from somebody who was just about to go to a Bishop’s Advisory Panel, describing going through the discernment process in our diocese. We heard from an oblate of an Anglican Benedictine community, who discussed the possibility of closer connection with a religious community or the religious life itself. There was ample time for asking questions and also time for people to get into smaller groups and discuss their own experiences.

6 For many people attending the day, the opportunity to hear from others in a similar situation was particularly valuable. Finding there were other people asking questions like “What? Me?” and “But surely I’m not good enough?” or “What if I’m imagining it?” can be very reassuring and it makes it easier to be brave enough to say how we feel without worrying that we’ll look silly.

For many people considering a licensed ministry, the training in- volved can be a source of anxiety. “How long will it last?”, “Will I cope?”, “It’s been years since I did any study”, “I’m not really very academic”. The Principal of Lincoln School of Theology, the Revd Dr Sally Myers, is used to dealing with concerns like these, and after lunch she led an excellent session which showed every- body that theological learning can be non-threatening and enjoya- ble.

The value of the day was most obvious in the change of atmos- phere as it progressed. At the beginning there was some apprehen- sion and nervousness as people wondered at what to expect, but by the end of the day there was a relaxed and positive atmosphere in the room, with several people asking what their next steps should be.

More details on possible next steps may be obtained by contacting the DDO’s office via [email protected] or by calling 01522 50 40 29.

10 Belfry News Five Years on at Newton

Yes readers, as this title implies, time doesn't stand still as I recall our first visits to Newton in the Isle and Tydd St Giles in July 2014. Heavens how time passes,more so it appears, as one becomes older. The evening of yesterday June 11th was miserably wet, not at all as I had anticipated, evening sunshine, with perhaps the delightful perfume of lilac. However our spirits were not dampened as Alan Pateman unlocked the door of St James Church Newton,its general interior appearance rather better than its rather dilapidated exterior would suggest . The six bells in this tower are all dated 1786 and were cast by Thomas Osborn at his Downham Market foundry-now long gone. A pleasure to ring, we were joined by 11 visiting ringers from , Butterwick, , Spalding, Holbeach and .

At Tydd St Giles, some of us had perhaps a little difficulty in ringing it's six bells An 1887 rencast, their tone is not particularly inspiring and this plus the old timber bell frame and considerable movement of the tower ( it sways ) makes them somwhat unpredictable to handle. This provoked a few humerous comments about the previous tower which collapsed, oh around 1750 or thereabouts and how the current one continues upright despite the movement.

Our final "tower" of the evening was the Crown and Mitre,just a stones throw from the church, where all enjoyed the company and drinks. I left just after 10 pm leaving most of the company there and Christine cradling a glass of red wine, a happy smile on her face. She emailed me this morning thanking me for organising the outing saying "It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening and a good crowd" I'm glad she and the other ringers had a good time-that is what it's all about in the continued efforts to keep our bells ringing on Sundays.

Have a go at Bell Ringing

Saturday afternoon, July 27th, at Gedney Flower Festival 3.30pm. The tower will be open for anyone who may like to "have a go" aided and helped by a few experienced helpers -age no problem. John Bennett

11 Hello

This is a reminder that we are inviting representatives from a number of local community groups in , Holbeach St Marks, and to an initial meeting to see what activities or services might benefit the local community (if any).

We are undertaking this exploratory session with a view to attracting funding which would add value and we hope, long term sustainable benefit to local people. As part of the funding proposal we need to demonstrate what the community wants and needs so we are proposing to focus our meeting on understanding how and what the community would like to change or improve their lives. This may be by age or community type and can address health and wellbeing, social isolation, access to services, support for local groups and clubs, really the options are all open for discussion.

If there is an identified need and enough commitment from local people to help design, promote and run the project, we will work with you to put a funding application in on behalf of the community, just as an example we could offer life coaching, counselling, information and signposting, help and advice, training or volunteering opportunities, but the most important element is to establish what the need is and what the local interest is.

The meeting is to be held at Village Hall on Thursday 4th July from 10.00-12.00 Please confirm (by replying to this email) 1 that your group can be represented at this workshop 2 the name(s) of the people attending 3 at least one contact email and/or telephone number Alternatively you can register directly here

https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/coastal-communities-tickets-62036900038

If you are interested but not able to attend please let me know and I will try and arrange a one to one catch up with you or the group. Also please feel free to share this with anyone else you think might like to contribute.

Healthwatch Lincolnshire is the independent champion for people who use health and social care services.

We’re here to make sure that those running services put people at the heart of care. Our sole purpose is to understand the needs, experiences and concerns of people who use health and social care services and to speak out on their behalf. We focus on ensuring that people’s worries and concerns about current services are addressed. We work to get services right for the future.

Best wishes and we look forward to seeing as many people as possible at this event.

If you have already responded to prior notification of this event please forward this on to others who may be interested.

13 ‘What's On’

Fleet Baptist Church

Pastor: Ross A Dean. Phone: 01406 424556 ‘How rich are the wonderful blessings God promises his people and how very great is his power at work in those who believe.’ Ephesians 1: 18-19.

Paul is reminding the Ephesian church of the greatness of their God and en- courages them, despite the difficulties they face, to ‘praise his glory’ (ch.1 v.12) and to engage in joyful worship (vs.19-20). As we come to realise and appreciate all that the Lord in his goodness has done and continues to do in our lives, our increasing desire, surely, is to bring him our worship and thanksgiving.

We hope that all our readers will enjoy some rest and relaxation during the summer holiday period.

15 IS THERE A PRIEST WAITING IN THE WINGS!

We certainly miss Father Adrian and we are truly grateful to the priests who are supporting us and taking services during the Vacancy. The churchwardens in the parishes are all kept busier at this difficult time and we thank our Rural Dean, Revd Rosamund Seal, for guiding us through the process of finding a new incumbent.

Many people ask and comment about why there isn’t a new priest in post as soon as a previous priest has left or retired. It does seem to take forever to compile a Benefice Profile, fill in forms for the Diocese, create an advert that everyone will find acceptable – well at least a majority of people will approve! Then a suitable date has to be found in a Bishop’s and Archdeacon’s diaries for the interviews – and that will only happen if there are some applicants.

It has to be said that it is difficult to attract professional people to this rural area of the country and several churches in the Deanery have been disappoint- ed in recent times that they have had no applicants.

Whether you regularly support your parish church or not; visit it occasionally; enjoy once a year going to a Christmas Carol Service or a Harvest Songs of Praise; most people welcome and appreciate having a priest to talk to at some point in their lives – Baptism, Wedding or Funeral are examples.

The Working Group in the Benefice is doing its best – we have to be op- timistic and believe that there is priest out there waiting to be called to the Mid Elloe Benefice. We are sure that you would not want to see your church close, fall into disrepair and not be available for services.

No-one could fail to agree that Fleet Flower Festival was a huge success this year, but you may wonder how we measure that success. The church certainly looked – and smelled – beautiful. Both the many comments we heard and those that were written in our Visitors’ Book testify to that. We owe a great debt of gratitude to the many skilled people who created the magnificent arrangements.

I sometimes think we should try to count the number of visitors who come through the door during the four days of the Festival, many from as far afield as Southampton and even Kenya. It was a great delight to welcome on the Friday afternoon all the children from Fleet Wood Lane Primary School – the church buzzed with their excitement and curiosity, as they busied themselves with a quiz which focused them on finding displays in different areas of the church. On Friday morning we had welcomed many of the residents and day care adults from Capricorn Cottage – their joy, interest and excitement was palpable.

Do we measure success by the laughter and ceaseless chatter of friends and acquaintances meeting up, sometimes after many years? Or revelling in the delight that so many people have come to a church that they love and that holds so many memories for them. Or perhaps people who discover a church for the first time and admire its architecture or its spacious light and warmth.

There were also the frantic moments, that provide humour afterwards but are stressful at the time – such as the electricity blowing fuses (no jacket potatoes this year!) or a need to completely restock the Tombola after Saturday’s sell out and madly bake more cakes for the cake stall and refreshments on Sunday evening (no time for Evensong that Sunday).

Success also has to be measured by the magnificent total raised - £3100 – our Treasurer was certainly kept busy at the end of every day. We are so grateful to the many people who helped, who organised, who arranged flowers, gave items and who visited our Festival.

Just as an afterthought, though – we need a Flower Festival every two months to keep our beautiful church open for many years to come!
