  • FROM the MANSE Gary Noonan Easter Sunday Sees the End of Gary’S Placement with Us
    Reflections The Magazine of Kay Park Parish Church Issue No 27 April - May 2017 FROM THE MANSE Gary Noonan Easter Sunday sees the end of Gary’s placement with us. In one paragraph of his final report from me, I have written:“ He feels – and patently is – called to the Ministry of Word and Sacrament, and to Parish Ministry. That call must be affirmed in him at the close of every service which he has conducted when the people respond as positively as they have done. He shows a fiery enthusiasm for the old role of Minister but is genuinely open to the new ways which are ahead.” Kay Park, Minister and people, have really enjoyed having him, and also getting to know Ruth, Robbie and Gregor. He goes on to Probation at Alloway Parish Church with the Rev. Neil McNaught. Our thanks, prayers and affection go with him. Farewell St. Paul ends his 2nd letter to the Corinthians Church (v.11) with“ And now, my friends, farewell….” I prefer Eugene Peterson’s version in “The Message”, “And that’s about it, friends”. My retirement on May 7th does not, I hope, mean, “Farewell”; the reason Joan and I are staying in the town (although at the opposite end!) is because of all the friendships we have made here, especially in the congregation: these are not ending. But, as far as being your Minister is concerned, “That’s about it”! What a privilege it has been! I have loved leading worship here; I have felt a deep two- way interaction with the congregation (that doesn’t happen everywhere, believe me!) which has helped me to grow and develop my own faith and proclamation of it.

  • From the Minister, February 2020… Rev
    1 Reflections The magazine of Kay Park Parish Church Kilmarnock February—April 2020 Issue No 44 …… a welcoming church in the heart of the community From the Minister, February 2020… “Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things break. And all things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So, go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world waits in darkness for the light that is you.” (L.R. Knost) I was reminded of these words this week having, in the past, found them helpful and reassuring. Take a moment and consider the word ‘brokenness’, which if you ‘google’ you will find explained thus… 1. having been broken. "he had a broken arm" synonyms: smashed · shattered · burst · fragmented · splintered · shivered · crushed · 2. (of a person) having given up all hope; despairing. "he went to his grave a broken man" synonyms: defeated · beaten · vanquished · overpowered · overwhelmed · subdued · 3. having breaks or gaps in continuity. "a broken white line across the road" synonyms: interrupted · disturbed · fitful · disrupted · disconnected · discontinuous · fragmentary · intermittent · unsettled · sporadic · spasmodic · erratic · troubled · incomplete 4. having an uneven and rough surface. "he pressed onwards over the broken ground" synonyms: uneven · rough · irregular · bumpy · jagged · ragged · craggy · rutted · pitted · rutty Where do we experience ‘brokenness’ in our lives, our families, our church, our community, our world? Stop, get a piece of paper and pen and note down what comes to mind. Then in the days to come bring the situations and people you have noted down to God in prayer. In Isaiah chapter 42 v 16 we find these words: ‘I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn darkness into light before them, and make the rough places smooth’ As always, thank you to everyone who has contributed to ‘Reflections’ this month: thank you too to Eleanor Hamilton and her team for all their work.

  • From Our Minister, the Rev Fiona Maxwell
    1 Reflections The magazine of Kay Park Parish Church Kilmarnock MAY 2020 Issue No 45 …… a welcoming church in the heart of the community From our minister, the Rev Fiona Maxwell One of my birthday cards last week had the tag line 21 with 29 years’ experi- ence… I like that! In this time of ‘lockdown’ and social distancing, the clock continues to tick, time passes, sometimes quickly and at others each minute seems to weigh heavily. We are complex beings, we yearn to have more time, then when we have time we struggle to know what to do with it or how simply to‘ be’ in the moment. In the Old Testament book of Ecclesiastes in chapter 3 we read the following. There is a time for everything and season for every activity under the heavens. …A time to embrace and a time to refrain …A time to search and a time to give up …A time to keep and a time to throw away… He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of people’. How are you doing in these strange times we are living through? If you are anything like me, you will find some days are easier than others. Sometimes you feel you are coping, others you feel out of control. Sometimes you feel content, at others you feel unsettled. You are not alone. We are all in this together, not just for now but in the weeks and months to come. God is in this too. Not remote and distant but present in the hospital rooms, the laboratories, the post office sorting offices, the care homes, the milking shed, the supermarkets, your home, my home.

The effects of poor air quality on ill health are now well documented and the Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants (COMEAP) (Reference 25) has reported that “Anthropogenic PM2.5 ... is associated with an effect on mortality equivalent to nearly 29,000 deaths in 2008 in the UK and an associated loss of total population survival of 340,000 years”. An estimate of local mortality burden in East Ayrshire equates to 45 attributable deaths (age 25+) with associated life years lost at 497 (2010). The provision of good air quality is important to East Ayrshire Council (EAC) where it is a material consideration in the planning process and Environmental Health is a consultee where air quality is of concern.

  • THE WEEKEND of INVITATION the Locum's Letter
    Reflections April - May 2018 Issue No 33 The Locum's Letter My Dear Friends, Here is a prayer we will pray this Easter in church. You may also want to use it in your own private devotions. Lord Jesus Christ, bruised for our iniquities and raised for our salvation, receive our prayers for all the world. Especially we pray this Eastertide for those who are dying, and for all who grieve their passing. Wherever this day death arrives with the roar of bombs or the rattle of machine guns, come risen Christ Jesus; Wherever today death arrives with the malnutrition and disease of refugee camps, come risen Christ Jesus; Wherever today death arrives with the assassin's knife or the terrorist's bomb, come risen Christ Jesus; Wherever today death arrives with the swallowing of illegal drugs or the insertion of a needle in some dark corner, come risen Christ Jesus; Wherever death arrives today with the squeal of car tyres or the shouts of a drunken brawl, come risen Christ Jesus; Wherever death arrives today despite the best of medical care, and the tender love of families, come risen Christ Jesus; Whenever death arrives today as a most welcome friend to those whose bodies are wasting away and who long to go home, come risen Christ Jesus; Wherever death has left in its wake desolate families, desperate orphans, or angry people, come risen Christ Jesus; God of Easter, let it be written indelibly on our mind and in our soul, that because of Easter nothing can defeat your love; nothing sever us from the grace of the risen Christ.
