We would welcome articles (and front cover photographs) for this magazine – relevant to the time of year, book reviews, travel articles, etc. Please send them to the editor. Feeling alone? I glanced out of my bedroom window first thing this morning, as I often do. It looks towards Murton Pike and Roman Fell. The cloud was down, the slopes disappearing upwards into the mist. How many times are we reminded of that sight in the Bible? - Like Moses disappearing into the cloud on Mount Sinai and returning with the commandments not only clear in his mind but written on flat stones. Ideas and principles for anyone who will listen and wants the world to be a better place to live in. And, because I’m starting to write this on Ascension Day, I thought about the occasion - after Jesus’ death - when he appeared to his friends and talked with them as they walked up a hill. Then he disappeared into cloud and was gone. They didn’t see him again. Later, I found myself retelling that tale to a few little ones at our monthly Edward Bear Club in St Lawrence’s. (Not as many as usual today - it’s the beginning of New Fair.) A wiggly line on a bit of green paper, cut out, gave an impression of a hill - as we see them from here. A sketch of a figure cut out of white paper, and there was Jesus, waiting for his friends and talking to them on the hillside. Then a cloud cut from white paper (‘a fluffy one’ said one of the youngsters, getting into the story). The cloud drifted across, as they do, and covered the top of the hill. Then it drifted away, and Jesus was no longer there. He’d gone. ‘What do you think he said to them last, before he went?’, I asked. Blank looks. So I asked the question another way. ‘If I get up now and go away out of the door, what will I say?’. ‘Bye, bye’ they said - and one of them gave a little wave. Got it. But Jesus didn’t say goodbye or anything like that. He said ‘I am with you always’. (What he actually said can be translated: ‘till the end of time’ - but that’s a bit hard for little ones to understand!) So we sang a little song including the line ‘Jesus is with me every day’ to help them to remember, get used to the idea. After saying ‘Thank you’ to Jesus, and a happy dancing song, out they went, happy, into the world. Childish? I hope it was sufficiently childlike for them to cotton on. To put it in adult language would not have been helpful - unfair, in fact. But for those of us able to grasp adult ideas, let’s not lose that simple promise - true in hard times as well as easy, in grief as well as joy - he is there: tell him how you feel, let him into your life. And the promise is for every day - ‘even to the end of time’. [In case you’re wondering - by 9.0 am the cloud had lifted, drifted away, and we had a glorious day.] Lynn Miller

8. Esther John

In an age where conversion to a new faith provokes fear and hatred Esther John “Leave all other ties, Jesus is calling.”

ESTHER JOHN was born Qamar Zia, on 14 October 1929, one of seven children. As a child she attended a government school and, after the age of seventeen, a Christian school. There she was profoundly moved by the transparent faith of one of her teachers, and she began to read the Bible earnestly. It was when reading the 53rd chapter of Isaiah that she was suddenly overtaken by a sense of conversion to this new religion. When India was partitioned Qamar Zia moved with her family into the new state of Pakistan. Here she made contact with a missionary, Marian Laugesen in Karachi. Laugesen, at her request, passed on to her a New Testament. Her Christian faith grew privately, even secretly. Then, seven years later, she ran away from home, fearful of the prospect of marriage to a Muslim husband. She found her way back to Laugesen in Karachi. For a while Qamar Zia worked in an orphanage there, and it was at this time that she took the name Esther John. Her family still pressed her to return and to marry, but on 30 June 1955 she took a train north to Sahiwal, in the Punjab. Here she lived and worked in a mission hospital, stayed with the first Anglican bishop of Karachi, Chandu Ray, and celebrated her first Christmas. Finding a vocation to teach, she entered the United Bible Training Centre in Gujranwala in September 1956. In April 1959 she completed her studies there and moved to Chichawatni, some thirty miles from Sahiwal, living with American Presbyterian missionaries. She evangelised in the villages, travelling from one to the other by bicycle, teaching women to read and working with them in the cotton fields. At times her relationship with her distant and perplexed family appeared calm; at others anxiety and tension brewed. Her death was sudden and mysterious. On 2 February 1960 Esther John was found dead in her bed at the house where she lived at Chichawatni. She had been brutally murdered. Her body was taken to the Christian cemetery at Sahiwal and buried. Later, a memorial chapel was built in front of the nurses’ home in the grounds of the hospital there. Today, Esther John is remembered with devotion by the Christian community with whom she lived and worked. 9. Lucian Tapiedi In an age of aggression Lucian Tapiedi “I will stay with the Fathers and Sisters.”

AT SANGARA mission station in Papua New Guinea there stands a row of graves: two of Australian women, Mavis Parkinson and May Hayman, and a third of Lucian Tapiedi. Tapiedi was born in 1921/2, in the village of Taupota, on the north coast of Papua. His father was a sorcerer, who died when his sons were still young. He was taught at mission schools and then, in 1939, he entered St Aidan’s teacher training college. Here Tapiedi became known as a diligent and cheerful presence, fond of physical recreation but also musical. In 1941 he became part of the staff at Sangara as a teacher and evangelist. In December 1941 Japanese forces attacked the American fleet at Pearl Harbour. In the same month they invaded Malaya. British forces capitulated in Singapore in February 1942. The missionaries who lived in New Guinea watched events anxiously, and feared the worst. In January 1942 the Anglican bishop, Philip Strong, had broadcast an appeal to them to stay at their work, come what may. Many of the missionaries themselves wished this, and had already resisted calls to turn to safety. On 21 July 1942 the Japanese invaded the island near the mission station at Gona. Three of the residents, Parkinson, Hayman and James Benson, fled inland and there encountered other Australians in hiding. But they were soon caught. The soldiers murdered Hayman and Parkinson at Popondetta. In Northern Papua, meanwhile, a second group of missionaries struggled to evade capture. Among them was Lucian Tapiedi, who was determined not to abandon the missionaries with whom he worked. In a few days this group swelled to ten people. They came to a village inhabited by the Orokaiva people, and found themselves escorted away by men of that tribe. One of the Orokaiva, a man named Hivijapa, killed Tapiedi near a stream by Kurumbo village. The remainder of the group perished soon after; six of them beheaded by the Japanese on Buna beach. 333 Christians lost their lives in New Guinea during the invasion and occupation of the island by the Japanese forces. The greatest number of those who died - 198 - were Roman Catholics. But there were also Methodists, Salvationists, Lutherans, Anglicans, members of the Evangelical Church of Manus, and Seventh Day Adventists among the dead. Now a shrine marks the place where Lucian Tapiedi died. His killer later converted to Christianity. He took the name Hivijapa Lucian, and built a church dedicated to the memory of his victim at Embi.

17, Boroughgate, Appleby-in-Westmorland Bolton Nursery- LLibra Tel: 017683-51648 Rabbit speaks

Rocky’s friends are saying what is most important about a nursery. Rabbit produced his list and declared for Efficiency and Working with the Community. Bolton is a charity run by a committee of trustees. As a non-profit organisation it can prioritise spending on the children and consider the needs of the local community. For example the nursery is open all year round. Pooh thinks this is rather boring but did not manage to say so, owing to a mouth inconvenienced by honey.

Nursery is open Mon to Fri, 8 till 6 from babies to 3 Ladies’ & Gents’ Fashions upwards in Free Entitlement to Nursery Education.
