ARCHBISHOP BARRY in his Christmas Sermon calls us to support refugees, such as the millions who have fled from Syria. “We cannot forget that the God we worship is revealed in Jesus who was born in Palestine, an occupied country, whose parents became refugees as they fled a genocidal tyrant in the person of Herod. That echoes the experience of millions in our world. We too may feel totally powerless where there are four million refugees who have fled from Syria alone. It ought to spur us, as Christians, to urge our government to open our borders to far more of them than the few we do shelter, and touch our own hearts in being financially generous to charities which alleviate their plight. God’s light in the darkness of our world is made manifest in His solidarity with those who suffer and are desperate. And if we are disciples of Jesus, then we too must witness to that light, if we really believe it is a light that no darkness can ever overcome.” CARDIFF RECORDED MUSIC SOCIETY will meet in the Schoolroom on Wednesday 7.25-9.30pm for a talk entitled “To decorate or not to decorate?”.

FROM GUSTAVUS CHOIR BLOG : Our performance at St Edward’s Church in Roath, a town outside of Cardiff, was certainly the choir at its best. We sang from near the altar, with about 30 yards across the quire between us and the audience. That distance and the vaulted ceilings of the church created a smoothly blended sound. The choir and audience continued to build off one another, creating a memorably high-energy performance. Afterwards, the parish and Gustavus communities mingled over food and drink. VESTRY DOOR KEY . The new lock was finally installed on Friday. Our thanks to Kathie for persevering with this essential work (some of the old Yale keys were bending and/or breaking in the lock).

Earlier this year, Liz Coombes returned to Bethlehem to visit the music therapy project. The idea was to evaluate the work being done, and offer suggestions for continued development. Over the course of a week, Liz visited the 3 schools who are using music therapy. They are located in Ramallah, Bethlehem and Beit Sahour. In each school Liz observed groups, chatted with the teachers and social workers and met management. All in all, it was a very productive visit. Staff are working very hard to develop this work with groups running daily. There was evidence of a deep commitment to the project, with session plans and notes being kept and some really lovely activities being developed using music. In fact, Liz has been invited back in the Summer to run a 3 day course not just for the teachers at the Evangelical to Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land, but also for other schools who want to find out about music therapy. All in all, the project continues to go from success to success and is well and truly part of school life! http://StEdward.roath.org.uk Facebook: StEdwardRoath Twitter: @StEdwardsRoath [email protected] NEW FLOWER ROTA is posted in the porch.
