The Parish Magazine of St Stephen's Church Guernsey October 2019 The Parish Magazine of St Stephen’s Church Guernsey God’s Generosity October 2019 From the Editor A ‘mixed bag’ this month, really. Some important thoughts on generosity, contributions of articles on various subjects, Gift Month, and events coming up: our monthly church ‘harvest’ of the written word (small ‘w’). Claudia Moore Great Church Mouse Trail Saturday 19th October 10.00am-3.00pm Sunday 20th October 2.00-4.00pm Etienne, the church mouse at St Stephen’s, would like to invite everyone who is young and young-at-heart to a fun interactive Great Church Mouse Trail at the church. Whilst you are on the Trail, you can admire our newly-restored William Morris stained glass windows. As he shows you around the church, Etienne will be helped by his friends: - Louis, who lives out at Pleinmont; - Gus, a butler mouse who lives in Town and knows all about the Victorian gentry who built St Stephen’s and their connections to world history; - and Suzette, Etienne’s sister who lives in London and knows the artists of the William Morris ‘Firm’. You will also meet Sid and Harry, mice who work in Mr Morris’ stained-glass studio. They will tell you how glass is made; and you can play a game of Egyptian marbles or make a crown or a sun catcher. Have you ever wondered why a brass eagle sits on a ball in church? Or what a chalice is used for? Find out some of the fun facts connected to the ‘Tree of Jesse’, including Christmas carols, a West End Musical and the name of a wine bottle. Etienne and his friends look forward to seeing you and have asked a few humans to help them! Rosalyne Le Huray What is Human Generosity? The modern English word ‘generosity’ derives from the Latin word generosus, which means ‘of noble birth’, which itself was passed down to English through the Old French word généreux. Most recorded English uses of the word ‘generous’ up to and during the sixteenth century reflect an aristocratic sense of being of noble lineage or high birth. To be generous was literally a way of saying ‘belonging to nobility’. During the seventeenth century, however, the meaning and use of the word began to change. Generosity came increasingly to identify not literal family heritage, but a nobility of spirit thought to be associated with high birth. It pointed to various admirable qualities that could now vary from person to person, depending not on family history but on whether a person actually possessed these qualities. In this way, generosity came to signify a variety of traits of character and actions that were historically associated with the ideals of nobility: gallantry, courage, strength, richness, gentleness and fairness. In addition to describing these diverse human qualities, ‘generous’ became a word used during this period to describe fertile land, the strength of animal breeds, abundant provisions of food, vibrancy of colours, the strength of liquor and the potency of medicine. Then during the eighteenth century, the meaning of ‘generosity’ continued to evolve in directions denoting the more specific, contemporary meaning: munificence, open- handedness, liberality in the giving of money and possessions to others. This more specific meaning came to dominate English usage by the nineteenth century. Over the past five centuries in the English-speaking world, ‘generosity’ developed from being primarily the description of an ascribed status pertaining to the elite nobility to being an achieved mark of admirable personal quality and action. Viewed in this way, generosity was capable of being exercised by any person who had learned virtue and noble character. Today we use the word ‘generosity’ to refer to the virtue of giving good things to others, freely and abundantly. It is a learned character trait that involves both attitude and action. It is therefore not a random idea, nor a haphazard behaviour, but rather (in its mature form) a basic, personal, moral orientation to life. Generosity always intends to enhance the true well-being of those to whom it gives. What exactly generosity gives can be various things: money, possessions, time, attention, aid, encouragement, emotional availability and more.

It is modelled for us; and it is embraced or rejected by us. Many people model it for us, and it is perfectly modelled for us by our Creator. Our God is a generous God. He is the original source of true generosity. His generosity has been displayed from the very beginning. God is generous in creation In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. He created them not just for Himself; He entrusted His glorious creation to the care of the human beings He had created in His image and for His glory. Apart from creating seas, mountains and rivers, God made 400,000 species of flowers; 750,000 species of insects; 200,000 species of edible plants; 10,000 species of birds; stars too numerous to count; and millions of galaxies besides our own. He not only created our universe with perfect elegance and complexity; He designed it with superfluous creativity. Such beauty inspired David to write (Psalm 8. 3-4), ‘When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have established; what are human beings that you are mindful of them, mortals that you care for them?’ The generosity of God in creation alone is overwhelming. God is generous in the gift of His Son And yet God did, and does care for the humans He has created. Tragically, Adam and Eve failed to recognise the generosity of God. Duped by the evil one, they were convinced that God was holding something back from them for their enjoyment and growth. And so they took matters into their own hands; and the result was the advent of sin and shame. God then intervened in his limitless generosity and gave humankind the supreme gift, the gift of His only Son. He who is the Word of God took human form, lived among Cimabue, Crucifix, c. 1265, Santa Croce, Florence us, revealed His glory and offered Himself up as a sacrifice to pay the penalty of human sin.

  • The Parish Magazine of St Stephen's Church Guernsey October 2018
    The Parish Magazine of St Stephen’s Church Guernsey Abbaye Saint-Magloire de Léhon Photo courtesy of Frances Cambrai-Bell October 2018 From the Editor We have devoted this issue of the Parish Magazine to evangelists, given that so many of them, of all types and orders of greatness, appear in the October Lectionary on their feast days. The cover photo of the Abbey of Saint Magloire in Dinan, donated to us by Frances Cambrai-Bell, gave us the original idea, reinforced by the realisation that Francis of Assisi, William Tyndale, Teresa of Avila, Hugh Latimer and Luke the Evangelist are all commemorated in the same month. Saint Magloire is not in the Lectionary and his feast day is celebrated only locally, but the examples of these six ‘bringers of good news’ whose lives are recounted briefly herein, could well serve as encouragement to us to become not-so-timid evangelists ourselves. Claudia Moore Blueprint for a Successful Parish There is much discussion today about the loss of community and how parishes, even those who seem to be well-attended, do not appear to be the centre of the community. This is no doubt due to the sense of alienation that many feel in the modern world. It is also due to the gradual changes that have occurred in society. One could argue that if parishes are able to re-establish Christian community, the possibility of their influencing and transforming the post-Christian world is radically increased. How might such communities be established? An analysis of the growth of the early Church as described by the Acts of the Apostles seems to point to four ministries that we should replicate today.
