Pastoral Letter—November

Remembrance Day is upon us once more – a day that I always find hard to write or preach on. It seems like a day when my generation should be silent, and listen to our elders. A day to remember those who have died for the freedom we enjoy in this country, and to thank God for them and for what they achieved. A day to pledge ourselves again to maintain that freedom in our own land and to work to realise it in other areas of our world. A day to listen to the lessons of the past and try to apply them to today, when soldiers from this country are still fighting and dying in other lands. It can be hard for someone of my age to fully appreciate the extraordinary price that was paid in the two World Wars. It is brought home for me most sharply as we read the names on the war memorial in Hambledon church, and recognise that these were people known and loved in this village – sons, brothers, uncles, fathers. Sometimes too I can catch glimpses through books and films and hearing people’s stories. You might know a story from Auschwitz that was a glimpse of hope in that unspeakable place: the story of a Polish Roman Catho- lic priest, Father Maximilian Kolbe, who was held prisoner there. To discourage escape attempts there was a rule that if a man escaped, ten would be killed in retaliation. In July 1941 a man from Kolbe's block appeared to have escaped (although later he was found drowned in the camp latrine), and it was announced that ten men were to be locked in the starvation bunker without food or water until they were dead. The ten were selected, including another Pole, Franciszek Gajowniczek, imprisoned for helping the Resistance. As he was called forward, he cried out: “My poor wife! My poor children! What will they do?” Fr Maximilian stepped forward: “I am a Catholic priest. Let me take his place. I am old. He has a wife and children.” Amaz- ingly, this offer was accepted – and Fr Maximilian died three weeks later, aged forty-seven. During their time in the bunker he encouraged and supported the others, and spent his time praying and singing. Franciszek Gajowniczek survived the war, and was reunited with wife. He lived to be ninety-five years old, and every year on the anniversary he went back to Auschwitz. He spent the next five decades honouring the man who died on his behalf and in October 1982 he was present when Fr Maximilian was canonized by Pope John Paul II. This hugely inspiring story illustrates the sacrifices that so many people made in the cause of maintaining human rights and freedom. It’s the story of only one person, but it mirrors many others – in some ways, of all those who gave their lives in the first and second world wars: laying them down so that others could live. In doing so, they followed the example set by Jesus, who said to his disciples , “Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” The disciples didn’t understand that he was talking about himself. Jesus laid down his life for his friends – in fact, in order that we might be his friends. In order to break through the barrier that we’ve built between ourselves and God – the barrier of pride, hatred, greed, brokenness – Jesus took the punishment we deserve for all that, knowing that we could- n’t take it ourselves. He took our place like Fr Maximilian did for Franciszek. Jesus took the punishment so that we could be his friends: “No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.” He offers us a position of responsibility and trust; he gives us a part to play in God’s purposes for the world, standing for love, justice, freedom and truth against those who would destroy them.

Hambledon Parish Magazine, November 2008, Page 4 Our part may also involve laying down our lives for our friends. But because of what Jesus did, when we lay down this life it’s only to take it up again with him who promised, “As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you.” This Remembrance Day, let’s thank God for the love he shows us in Jesus, and for the love we see in those who have laid down their lives for you and me.

AMBLEDON being judged Surrey Vil- lage of the Year 2008 was celebrated at a barbecue party on the cricket green, at- tended by more than 100 parishioners on H Sunday October 12. Autumn sunshine and the warm glow of a job well done in working together to create an award-winning community combined to make the gathering a lively and enjoyable social occasion. A cross-section of villagers mingled outside the pa- vilion where members of the cricket club manned the barbecue to provide burgers and sausages. Real ale and wines were available and the cost of the party was met by Hambledon Parish Council. It was good to see so many of Hambledon’s more senior citizens attending as they were the ones that started the ball rolling in establishing the village as a community that cares and takes action to maintain and enhance village life. Thank you to everyone who helped organise the party, and especially to Hambledon Cricket Club and its barbecue volunteers. Hambledon won the award by impressing the judges who examined activities and organisations that have benefited from the hard work and vision of local people. The village now goes forward as the Surrey repre- sentative to compete for the national title of Calor Village of the Year 2009. This will involve a new round of judging after the submission of a detailed entry form by the parish council. Judges will be looking for “pro-active and caring village communities which, irrespective of size, are making the best of local opportunities in order to enhance and sustain a better quality of life for all inhabitants.” Regional judging will take place next spring with final judging in the summer. The winning village will be announced in December 2009 and will re- ceive £7,000. Regional finalists receive £2,000. All of our village organisations and activities will have an important role to play as Hambledon pre- sents itself for scrutiny by the national judges. The parish council will be in contact with them over the coming months. (Photographs of the barbecue can be seen on our village website – www.hambledonsurrey.co.uk

Hambledon Parish Magazine, November 2008, Page 8 During World War One, some of the worst fighting took place in the Flanders and Picardy regions of Belgium and Northern France. After the complete devastation, the poppy was the only thing which grew on the land. McCrae, a doctor serving there with the Canadian Armed Forces, was deeply in- spired and moved by what he saw. He wrote these now famous verses:

In Flanders' Fields John McCrae, 1915

In Flanders' fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders' fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe; To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high, If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders' Fields.

Julian Williams—“Joolz”—had a love of speed, excitement and particle physics, but also of Hambledon, where he lived and played for 26 of his 38 years before his untimely death this summer, recounts his father, Dr David Williams.

O England, country of my heart's desire, and of the hedgerow and the village spire; Land of thatched cottage and murmuring bees, and wayside inns where one may take one's ease. Of village green where cricket may be played and fat old spaniels sleeping in the shade - O homeland, far away across the main, how would I love to see your face again! From a poem by E V Lucas

But before she enjoys this food, she puts her hands together and, as simply as the food in front of her, mouths a prayer of thanks to God. The artist tells us that this offering of prayer was a daily pattern for the woman. For on the ledge at her side lie an open Bible, a lamp and an hour-glass, and on a nail some keys. Signs that such prayer can be a light to illuminate the days of our lives and the key to open our hearts to the kingdom, just like the woman in the painting.

And then our eyes catch sight of the cat’s paw reaching up to enjoy the food as well. Who knows? – something may spill over the edge of the table for the cat to enjoy. Simplicity and humour go hand in hand to remind us all of the need to be thankful. And thankfulness for food can spill over into thanksgiving for all the mercies and gifts that come our way in life.
