It is a disappointment because I had hoped to hang on to Summer a little longer. Still, as we know, the only thing sure about Pembrokeshire weather is that it will change. Thank you to everyone who has worked so hard to make this a joyful summer in the Ministry Area with fetes and craft shows, memorable weddings, an artist in residence scheme and just all the everyday business of welcoming visitors and tourists, provid- ing food and caring for this place. The time is approaching when we begin to celebrate harvest. Elsewhere in this edition you will see about the big ‘do’ planned for the end of the month. Please do come along and celebrate an- other year’s work and the goodness of the world God has trusted to us. An ancient king once challenged all his philosophers and wise men to come up with something that they could all agree was ab- solutely and always true. When you tell this story to children you can have great fun making suggestions and finding quibbles- (‘Grass is green’- ‘except when it is yellow or brown or you can get grasses that are red and almost black, and anyway, how do I know that the colour I see is green is the same colour you see….’). Final- ly, the advisors found something they could say, ‘This too will change’. Christians would argue that God is the one constant but he has made this world so that, like Pembrokeshire weather and the sea- sons, change is certain and we must learn to celebrate at all times and in all places, I hope you can this September, With every blessing Andrew and Rhiannon St Ishmaels Church News So much has happened since the last edition of PP! Most importantly our application to the Roof Repair Grant Scheme has been approved and we will be starting work on repairing the church roof and bellcote on 19th September. Our last service this year will be on 18th Sept at 11.00am. Depending on the weather we hope to have the work completed in between 12 and 16 weeks. When this is completed and the fabric of the building has dried out we will be doing more work on the interior decorations and mounting our ancient stones so as to display them to their best advantage. While the work is going on we will be using the Memorial Hall for some services and out- reaching to other venues. We will keep you advised of these via PP and notice boards. The Church Yard will be a fenced off safety area during the works. Access to the Grave Yard will be via the stile on the footpath. Any baptisms will be conducted at the Memorial Hall as will any funerals. Please contact Fr Andrew about these. Our thanks to all those who have contributed to our successful repair project ~ 100 Club. Festival Draw 1st Marina Titley, 2nd Kate Scales, 3rd Heather Phippen.

The Bishop of St Davids Rt Revd Wyn Evans inaugurated this at a special service at Walwyns Castle Church earlier this year.

The summer provided a mixed bag in terms of weather but not content! We had a won- derful day out at Manorowen and Fishguard despite the weather trying its best to disrupt things! It was very reassuring to go to a church which has reopened - St Mary's Ma- norowen, and see it doing so well. There is hope for all we felt. If any of you have not visited The Last Invasion Tapestry at Fishguard I strongly recommend you do, it is beauti- ful and the story is quite good as well! The Summer Picnic, was held indoors due to blus- tery conditions at St Brides Beach, so although the bring and share lunch was enjoyed by many of the members .... sand castle building and paddling were not allowed! We now move back to the programme of talks, starting with us, The Mothers' Union, hosting a meeting this month to look into the how it is possible to become a Dementia Friendly Community. The meeting is on Tuesday 13th September at Marloes Village Hall 7.30pm. The Mothers’ Union is a non-denominational group and welcomes all, and despite the name you do not have to be a mother! If you feel like popping in to see how we operate please do. We meet on the second Tuesday of the month in Marloes Village Hall at 7.30pm. Look forward to seeing you there! For any more information contact Harriet 636668, or Bridget 636274. WEST ROOSE MINISTRY AREA HARVEST GET TOGETHER BRING and SHARE SUPPER FRIDAY 30th SEPTEMBER CORONATION HALL, DALE at 7.30PM ALL WELCOME Cast your mind back past the Olympic Games to EURO 2016 - it was all about football, and particularly about the Welsh team. Now read on: A prayer from Caldey Chapel In early July, Jenny and I visited Caldey Island. It was very pleasant to savour the calm and tranquillity of Caldy after the turmoil of Brexit, the political elections and of course the European Cup. The Chapel in the old priory was very beautiful and atmos- pheric. On the altar were a large number of prayers hand written on slips of paper asking for Our Lord's interven- tion to help cure a sick relative or to resolve a personal problem. Some were really heart rending. However one slip in particular took my eye. It simply said 'Please God, help Wales to win'. Colin Green What a woman! September 17 th is the feast day of a remarkable saint, Hildegard of Bingen. Her life should have been very small. She lived from 1098 to 1179, a time when few women made a mark on the world. Even within that world she should have been almost invisible. She was educated by a recluse, Jutta, from the age of eight and became a nun at the age of fifteen.

PREFACE. HE kindly reception accorded to my ' Nooks and Corners of Herefordshire,' both by the pubHc and the press, has encouraged me (where, indeed, en- couragement was httle needed) to set forth anew upon my sketching rambles, and explore the Nooks and Corners of Pembrokeshire. In chronicling the results of these peregrinations, I feel that I owe some apology to those whose knowledge of the Shire of Pembroke is far more thorough and intimate than my own, and upon whose preserves I may fairly be accused of poaching. I venture to plead, in extenuation, an inveterate love for exploring these unfrequented byways of my native land, and for searching out and sketching those picturesque old buildings that lend such a unique interest to its sequestered nooks and corners. Pembrokeshire is rich in these relics of a bygone time, but for one reason or another they do not appear to have received the attention they certainly deserve. Few counties can boast anything finer of their kind than the mediseval castles of Pembroke, Manorbere and Carew ; while St. Davids Cathedral and the ruined Palace of its bishops, nestling in their secluded western vale, form a scene that alone is worth a visit to behold. No less remarkable in their way are the wonderful old crosses, circles and cromlechs, which remind the traveller of a vanished race as he tramps the broad fern-clad uplands of the Precelly Hills.
