Neatishead, Irstead and Barton Turf Parish Magazine The NIB Neatishead, Irstead and Barton Turf Parish Magazine THE BENEFICE OF St BENEDICT The Parishes of Ashmanhaugh, Barton Turf, Beeston St Lawrence, Horning, Irstead and Neatishead Rector: The Rev’d David Smith 01692 630216 [email protected] From your Parish Priest It has been encouraging to see an increase in church weddings in the benefice, and it has been a privilege to get to know our wedding couples as they have prepared for marriage, and married life together. The words of the preface, read at the beginning of the marriage service, explain both to the couple and to the congregation the Church’s understanding of Christian marriage. The promises taken, the vows made, represent so much more than just a legal contract, and reflect a life-long commitment. On the wedding day, the focus is, of course, on the bride and groom, celebrating the beginning of their married life together. But the marriage service also has a message for the wider church community. In explaining marriage, the preface tells us that “Marriage is given that as man and woman grow together in love and trust, they shall be united with one another in heart, body and mind, as Christ is united with his bride, the Church”. The Church of course is the people, all of us, and our relationship with Christ is here likened to the marriage relationship. This idea implies that the Church - that’s you and me - is united with Christ in all aspects of our being – heart, body, and mind. It’s echoed in the wonderful Gaelic poem which was translated to become the hymn St Patrick’s Breastplate: Christ be with me, Christ within me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ beside me, Christ to win me, Christ to comfort and restore me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger. (St Patrick’s Breastplate, Mrs C F Alexander 1899) Notice too that the marriage service emphasises the dynamic nature of the relationship, as they “grow together in love and trust”. The Church’s relationship with Christ needs to be similarly dynamic and progressing; our relationship with Christ, and with each other, needs always to be moving onward and deeper in love and trust. Towards the end of the marriage service, the prayers are not just for the newly married couple, but also for their community: “May the hospitality of their home bring refreshment and joy to all around them; may their love overflow to neighbours in need and embrace those in distress” As Christ shares himself with his church, and we draw strength from his love, so we too are called to share that hospitality with the community which surrounds us, so that they too may share in that refreshment, that joy and that love. That is the Church’s calling; that is our calling. With every blessing.

Ian Bloomfield St Swithin’s, Ashmanhaugh Firstly, I hope that you all enjoyed the many and varied services over the Lent and Easter period in all the churches of our benefice. There was certainly something for everyone. Having made a plea earlier in the year we have been very fortunate to have received some wonderful donations from our parishioners for the flowers at St Swithin’s. So please may I say a very heartfelt thank you. On the subject of flowers we are organising a Flower Festival this year in conjunction with the village hall committee. It will be held over the weekend of 20th/21st July so I hope as many of you as possible will be able to drop in. This is in lieu of the village fete, which we are not doing this year. Finally, I have been volunteering for the last 15 years at the East Norfolk Riding for Disabled Group. This group is 40 years old this year and they are running a special campaign seeking businesses, schools, individuals, or clubs to raise £40 for the group. I cannot tell you how much the children and adults gain from these sessions both physically and psychologically. Certainly, as a volunteer, it is one of the most fulfilling things that I do. If you or your organisation feels they can help please could you either contact me or Mrs Susan Thompson on [email protected]. Many thanks. Anne Mulhall, Church Warden, 01603 784874 [email protected] Barton Turf Methodist Church Barton Turf Methodist Church anniversary service will be held on Sunday 12th May at 3pm, lead by The Martham Singers. We will be pleased to see you. Sheila Yaxley St Benet’s coffee morning The April coffee morning was quiet due to the St.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

  • Neatishead, Irstead and Barton Turf Parish Magazine
    The NIB Neatishead, Irstead and Barton Turf Parish Magazine THE BENEFICE OF St BENEDICT The Parishes of Ashmanhaugh, Barton Turf, Beeston St Lawrence, Horning, Irstead and Neatishead Rector: The Rev’d David Smith 01692 630216 [email protected] From your Parish Priest In the 1980’s, Sir John Harvey Jones became well-known first as chairman of ICI, one of our largest and most profitable businesses at the time, and then as a TV personality as ‘The Troubleshooter’, candidly advising struggling firms how to turn their fortunes around. There are many business quotes attributed to him, but he was also fond of the old adage that ‘if something’s not growing, then it’s dying’. Continued growth remains the principle that underpins the policies and aspirations of most western economies, governments, and businesses. If our GDP falls for two trading quarters in a row, that is not just ‘negative growth’, it is labelled ‘recession’, with the threat of ‘depression’ if someone doesn’t do something about it. Governments try to avoid it like the plague – and I use the term deliberately. If there is continued growth, with controlled inflation – all is deemed to be well, but recessions have a habit of bringing governments to their knees. As a result of this passion for growth, the world has also grown, or rather its population has – indeed it has tripled in the last 65 years - and this exponential growth shows no real signs of levelling off. But of course that seemed always to be part of God’s plan – ‘be fruitful and multiply’.

  • Wroxham Broad to Barton Broad Wroxham to Ant Mouth the To
    Explore the Broads 2021 Saturday - Wroxham Broad to Barton Broad Wroxham to Ant Mouth The tour starts at the Norfolk Broads Yacht Club on Wroxham Broad. The first leg is relatively short and the river Bure is relatively wide, so a relaxed start to the tour. Leave the Yacht Club and aim for the opening on to the River Bure on the far right-hand side of the broad between posts marked 1 and 2. Keep on the main river unless you wish to explore Salhouse Broad which is off to the right just past some moorings on the on the left. Above is the entrance and the exit is marked by red posts. Follow the river to Horning for lunch at The Swan Inn. A space for us to take the boats out will have been kept clear to the left of the pub and to the right of Horning Sailing Club. Beware that the ‘Mississippi paddle boat’ may be moored by this grassed area as well. After lunch, launch the boat and continue along the river in the same direction. Look out for a sign to the mouth of the River Ant on the left-hand side of the river just past Horning Hall and turn left.

  • The London Gazette, 23Rd October 1970 11713
    THE LONDON GAZETTE, 23RD OCTOBER 1970 11713 Every objection which is not rejected is noted on the register as soon as possible after receipt, and particulars are sent by the registration authority to the person (if any) on whose application the registration was made, and to certain other persons directly interested in the registration. In addition copies of register entries of objections are sent to local authorities holding copies of the registrations to which they relate. The noting of an objection on the register does not mean that it is officially admitted to be correct, and it has no immediate effect on the registration. The effect is that, unless the registration is cancelled, or the objector withdraws his objection, the matter will be referred to a Commons Commissioner for decision. Dated 23rd October 1970. '. R.
