Page 2 Lent Fasting

This month sees the start of Lent, the season of penitence, self- examination and fasting running up to Easter. Fasting can be a neglected discipline, but it plays an important part in the Christian life. Jesus began His earthly ministry by fasting in the wilderness for 40 days and He taught His disciples to fast (i.e. not if but ‘when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen.’ (Matthew 6:17,18).

Why Fast?

Firstly, giving up something in my life underlines my desire to put God first in my life. Secondly, fasting shows me how much I depend on things other than God in my life, so I can surrender my idols to Him. Thirdly, fasting encourages me to have a deeper hunger and dependency for God in my life. Therefore, fasting gives me space to humbly focus on God for His strength, provision and wisdom and results in a more intimate relationship with Christ. It also enables the Holy Spirit to reveal my true spiritual condition, leading to brokenness, repentance, and a transformed life, with a heart more attentive to God.

How can I fast?

Usually fasting involves missing one or two meals during the day, although some can’t abstain from food for medical reasons. It might also include abstaining or limiting the time I give to television, alcohol or social media. However, Lent can also be a time to embrace new spiritual disciplines e.g. joining a study group, ‘random acts of kindness’, or giving more time to prayer and Bible study. Whatever you do, make Lent count this year!

Elmton cum Creswell New Year 1916

The Vicar of Creswell, the Rev. Bathurst Sewell, was at this time very busy helping Creswell people in many ways, as well as taking services and visiting the sick. As WWI was at its height, numerous parishioners were asking him for help with drawing up wills. This he did to save them any expense.

The Duke of Portland’s winter gift to needy families had been a cut of meat and the vicar’s sense of humour didn’t desert him when asked by the recipients if they had been treated fairly. In fact, these said joints of meat were brought to him for inspection. Angry ladies wanted his opinion on the weight, size, shape, quality and taste of the joints they had been given. He said that he felt sympathy for the butchers in their task of pleasing them.

Some recipients of the Gisborne Charity, a gift of flannel each year, were also upset as they had to be taken off the list. As the war progressed, the price of this material had risen so there was less to share out.

Diphtheria was rife at this time and many very young children were dying from it; vaccination on a large scale didn’t take place until the 1940s when it again became prevalent. Children in Creswell with diphtheria were then sent to an isolation hospital in Langwith to recover. The Rev. Bathurst Sewell became enraged when conducting a funeral of two small children whose father had been given leave from the army to be there. He described the behaviour of the onlookers on and behind the east wall of the churchyard as disgraceful, likening them to watching a circus rather than a funeral. He said the crowd of men and women, without any head dress, had turned it into a public spectacle. It seems he spoke strongly to the crowd who were loudly gossiping and commenting throughout the funeral and likened them to people of an earlier period who flocked to public executions.

Page 9 No wonder he was upset as in a period of 14 days he had officiated at the funerals of seven children, the eldest 10 years old, the youngest 9 months. Some months the death toll of children was higher, but living conditions and few doctors were part of the cause.

The church magazines at this time were printed in Norwich where, on 31st January, Zeppelins had bombed the city. Fortunately the printing staff escaped injury and the magazines sent off the next day. The threat of Zeppelins was also on the minds of Creswell people at this time.

A Rev. R Lee wrote in the Parish magazine that on his way by ship to teach at a school in Singapore he had felt the effects of war. Bulgaria had just joined up with Germany, whose submarines were in the Mediterranean, and there were mines in the Suez Canal. Nearby he had seen a large Australian Hospital Ship waiting to take wounded men from the Dardanelles. After a journey of 32 days he arrived in Singapore.

The war was to continue for a further two years.

2020 Vision

I can see clearly now that Brexit’s done I can see rash promises in the way Gone is ‘election speak’ that had me blind It’s gonna be a ‘leave deal’, ‘constitution crunching’, ‘global warming’ day!

I could be lured into Johnny Nash’s song with ease To spend another day in ‘Parodies’ but...

New government social solution is in the air; Won’t have to sell your home to pay for care. Rural infrastructure? Train timetables failed; HS2 has been derailed!

Thousands more medics, what a reprieve, It’s the trying to stop those who want to leave. Pledge to hire more police, Stop and search to keep the peace.

Climate emergency a defining issue? Don’t hold your breath; Global warming is good! Fewer people freeze to death! CO2 emissions actually benefit trees, So can we stop chopping them down please?

This double headed coin creates confusion As poison fossil fuel gases cause air and water pollution. Donald Trump would like to turn the ‘windmills’ off; Burn coal instead! Cough, cough, cough! (more jobs though).

U.S. Pesident, “Fake news”, he cries; Coming from one accredited with 1000 lies; Says falling unemployment is down to me, It’s not an already established trend,you see! (In reality, in the economic cycle, it’s been falling for years !)

Page 12 Anne Sacculas extradition? Not U.S.intent; But dangerous driving is no accident! American lawyers, on UK legal process have frowned, But what if it was the other way round?

House of lords is in for a fright, Guy Fawkes resurrected, it’s bonfire night! So, Mr Johnson, it’s over to you, But, “don’t crash the ambulance whatever you do” (Mark Knopfler)

Christmas jumpers put away, Pray them and I see another day; Escalating tensions; world in a mess; I hope the ‘button’ they don’t press!

A 2020 vision quest For something good and true Would be, “walking on this earth finding You”. (Justin Hayward / John Lodge)

“... Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it Unto one of the least of my brethren, Ye have done it unto me.” (Matthew 25:40)

Page 18 The and Rectors of Whitwell (Part 2)

The first Rector on the list in the North Transept of St Lawrence Church is James Paynel and as such he appears in Bishop Walter Langton’s Register in Lichfield. It states that he was instituted to Whitwell Rectory on 2nd February 1316, the patron being Christine de Ry. This clearly shows that women could own property even in those distant days and be involved in communal decision making, although they faced many legal restrictions, even if wealthy.

Paynel became rector in the middle of the reign of Edward II, arguably the weakest king ever to rule England and who was dominated by unscrupulous favourites until his murder in Berkeley Castle. It was a troublesome reign and the weakness of government spilled over into the localities, as we hear of a Cotterill gang from the Peak District who terrorized North Derbyshire with impunity.

Paynel had previously been vicar of Alton near Stoke-on-Trent in , also in the Lichfield diocese. The patron there was the Cistercian abbey of Croxton. The Cistercians were a strict order of monks and Paynel’s presence in that parish may have been patchy, for his successor at Alton was made to swear that he would “reside”, this suggests that either this successor had an unreliable attendance record in his previous parish, or Paynel, in his time there, had frequently been absent. Whichever way it was, the archdeacon was going to put a stop to it through a promise of residence at the induction.

In the register for 1316, the village is spelt Whytewell, compare that with the spelling of Witeuuelle in the Domesday Book 230 years earlier and then today’s spelling. It gives us some idea of how the spelling of place names has changed, although it should be remembered that place name spelling was not standardised until the 1800s.

Page 19 Paynel may have been relatively young on his arrival at Whitwell as he appears to have stayed here for 20 years, possibly until his death in his late 40s or early 50s, which would have been a very good age at that time. He probably saw the erection of a new chancel which replaced the semi-circular apse and the building of the North and South transepts. The upper part of the tower is also of that period and may have been erected after the interior work was completed. One wonders if he might recognise the interior today; perhaps after very careful examination because there have been many changes in detail, although not so much to the basic structure. He would certainly find the decoration plain in comparison to his time, due to major changes with the Reformation of the 1500s.

It was at this time in the Middle Ages that Steetley was, for a while, a separate parish. In the first half of the 1300s it had seven successive priests, one of whom, Leche, was said to have been buried by the porch and part of his tomb now lies against the wall of the chapel. His surname indicates that an ancestor was a doctor as they used leaches in their cures. He had probably never been in medicine himself, as has been suggested, since the name was prominent in the region before his time.

Steetley village was wiped out by the plague and a Professor Beresford wrote in the 1960s that it was one of the many English villages lost in that disaster, but no archaeologist has yet attempted to prove his theory by excavation. It would mean digging up the Chapel lawns and disturbing plague pits.

Two American preachers were visiting in Germany and attended Sunday services. Since they couldn't speak German they decided to do as the man sitting in front of them did.

A few minutes into the service the preacher from the pulpit said something and the man in front of them stood and they stood also. The congregation burst into laughter. They then sat down when the man did.

At the end of the service, they met the pastor and found that he spoke English. They asked him why everyone laughed so much when they stood.

The pastor explained that he had announced that they would have a christening service that evening and would the father of the child please rise.
