1 Bishop’s Letter

It has been a great encouragement to hear that a large number of people attended the recent launch of the pilot stage of the Community of St Hugh. The launch event, which took place in the magnificent setting of Stow Minster, offered people an opportunity to hear more about this new community, to share in worship together, and pledge to take part in this pilot phase and ongoing shared discussion, prayer and discernment. The Community of St Hugh is a community called to pray in, with and for the Diocese of Lincoln. It is a community of prayer called into being by God and is open to anyone, regardless of their age or experience. It invites people to deepen their sense of discipleship, their life of prayer and their experience of their faith. As we know, prayer is at the heart of our being as Christians; it should undergird our whole lives and see us set time aside to worship God and also find time to be with God and to listen for his voice in the scriptures and in the needs of others and the world we live in. In speaking about prayer, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has said: ‘If we want to see things changed, it starts with prayer. It starts with a new spirit of prayer, using all the traditions, ancient and modern. When it comes, it will be linked to what has gone before, but it will look different – because it is a new renewal for new times. God’s created community is perfectly designed for its time and place. It almost always comes from below. It comes from Christians seeking Christ.’ Here in the Diocese of Lincoln we have an opportunity and a responsibility to play our part in seeking to renew the whole community of greater Lincolnshire, transforming the lives of all the people God has given us to love and care for. This hope and endeavour will form an important part of our prayers as the pilot stage progresses, ahead of the planned full launch of the community at Pentecost next year (20th May 2018). If you are interested in finding out more about the Community of St Hugh, please see the information and resources published on the diocesan website, call the diocesan Mission Team (01522 50 40 50) or send an email to [email protected] In the meantime, may we pray for one another and for this exciting new community, and may we take encouragement from the life and legacy of St Hugh, who we will remember as a diocese on 17th November. Bishop Christopher 2

The Diocesan Prayer

Almighty God, source of our hope and all good things; you call us in love to share in the work of creation in making all things new. Bless our diocese: may we be faithful in our worship; confident in our discipleship; and joyful in our service; that, through us, the world may catch a glimpse of the love you have for each one of us, made known to us in your son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

6 Community of St Hugh Diocese of Lincoln

Praying for the transformation of lives in greater Lincolnshire’

The Community of St Hugh is a community called to pray in, with and for the Diocese of Lincoln. It is a community of prayer called into being by God and is open to anyone, regardless of age or experience. It invites you to deepen your discipleship, your life of prayer and your experience of your faith. Prayer is at the heart of our being as Christians. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has said: “If we want to see things changed, it starts with prayer. It starts with a new spirit of prayer, using all the traditions, ancient and modern. When it comes, it will be linked to what has gone before, but it will look different – because it is a new renewal for new times. God’s created community is perfectly designed for its time and place. It almost always comes from below. It comes from Christians seeking Christ.” The great former Bishop of Lincoln, Edward King, once wrote: “What we need are more Christ-like Christians”. The Community of St Hugh is our response to these calls to deepen prayer and discipleship across the Diocese of Lincoln. The rule of life for the Community of St Hugh is based around three headings:

 worship

 discipleship

 service Members of the community are asked to develop their own patterns in response to these headings. Each member is encouraged to give time to praying through the patterns of their life, to see how they might respond in love and prayer to each heading.

For more details see the Diocesan web site or ask one of the clergy. http://www.lincoln.anglican.org/faith-discipleship/community-of-st-hugh-pilot/

Our Deanery is committed to deepen our life of prayer as part of the Community of St Hugh Pilot project please think about joining in?

Fr Peter

7 Worship Discipleship Service

As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving’. Colossians 2:6-7

PRAY

As you are ready, pray the Collect for St Hugh and the diocesan prayer.

Collect of St Hugh O God, who endowed your servant Hugh with a wise and cheerful boldness, and taught him to commend to earthly rulers the discipline of a holy life: give us grace like him to be bold in the service of the gospel, putting our confidence in Christ alone, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen

Diocesan Prayer Almighty God, source of our hope and of all good things; you call us in love to share in the work of creation in making all things new. Bless our diocese: may we be faithful in our worship; confident in our discipleship; and joyful in our service; that, through us, the world may catch a glimpse of the love you have for each one of us, made known in your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Respond with your prayers and intercessions for yourself, the Church, for the Diocese of Lincoln and the world.

Heavenly Father, as we seek to love you with all our heart, mind, body and soul. Help us to be faithful in our worship.

As we seek to follow the example of your Son in our families, in our communities, in the places in which we work and play. Transform us into confident disciples.

8 Following your command to love our neighbour as ourselves. Make us joyful in service.

In the business of the everyday. Enable us to see and engage with where you are working. In our well-being and in all our relationships.

Help us to recognise your presence in all things. In times of difficulty. Sustain us by your Holy Spirit.

As we pray for the renewal of the Diocese of Lincoln. Work within us and in your world for transformation and hope.

Listen

Be still and listen to God.

Finish your time of prayer with the Lord’s Prayer.

As you come out of your prayer space, give thanks for this time spent with God.

Who is St Hugh?

Born around 1140 in Avalon, as a child Hugh grew up as part of a priory alongside his father. At the age of 18 he was ordained deacon and around the age of 24 he became a prior at a neighbouring cell. He left that post and committed himself to duties as a Carthusian Monk at Grande Chartreuse where he became procurator. He was then ‘head hunted’ by King Henry II, who was setting up a Carthusian convent at Witham in Somerset. He was the prior at Witham for 10 years before being made Bishop of Lincoln in 1186. Hugh travelled endlessly: confirming children, consecrating churches and burying the dead. His sense of justice was recognised by the Pope and the three kings he served under, as he was made judge over some of the most important legal cases at that time. Hugh was a critic and friend to those kings. He was a friend to the oppressed, tended to lepers and risked his life preventing a group of Jews from being slayed.

9 Hugh revived the schools in Lincoln and is probably most famous for rebuilding the Cathedral after it was badly damaged in an earthquake. Hugh is often pictured with a swan that is said to have taken up residence in Stow and which formed a special attachment to Hugh. Hugh died in 1200 after 14 years as the Bishop of Lincoln and was canonised in 1220 by Pope Honorius III.

A message from the Community Leader... the Bishop of Lincoln ‘We know that we are asking God to bless and renew the life of the diocese and this will only happen if it is undergirded by a life of prayer. I pray that God will bless the Community of St Hugh, so that the Diocese of Lincoln will play its part in renewing the whole community of greater Lincolnshire, transforming the lives of all the people God has given us to love and care for’.

There were many winners in the ticket draw held before the main proceedings. The PCC would like to thank everyone who helped in any way to make this event a success which resulted in an amount of £237 towards church funds.

Many thanks go to the church ladies who dressed and prepared the tables. The ladies did an excellent service from the kitchen and everyone joined in to make this an excellent and companionable event. Finally thanks to Toynton All Saints Methodist Chapel for providing a cosy venue.

13 A Spectacle in the churchyard

Spectacles, Dingy Footmen, Rosy Rustics - they are all congregating in a churchyard near you. More precisely they are flying through and can, with a cunningly placed light, be persuaded to stay a while; to rest, nestled and safe in egg boxes until the morning. What a Lepidoptera treasure trove then awaits. Moths, with their marvellous, memorable names, with their delicate, intricate patterns, their shapes, sizes, textures and colours - who could fail to be impressed by a Canary-shouldered Thorn or a Swallow Prominent; to wonder at the almost grotesque, yet endearingly attractive, Poplar or Elephant Hawkmoth ?

Moths in Churchyards is the latest natural history initiative of the Spirit of Sutterby project. We have recorded at Sutterby for 4 years - each month different characters to meet, including a rather dashing Chinese Character. We are now venturing out to adjacent churchyards. New locations, different habitats - the fun and excitement of discovering and recording new creatures, which fly with moonlight on their wings. To date the churchyards of Dalby, Harrington, Langton, Brinkhill and Swaby have revealed over 60 different species of moth. Scalloped Oak, Bulrush Wainscot, Maiden's Blush and the wonderful Setaceous Hebrew Character - all await discovery in a churchyard near you.

All the records are logged on the Lincolnshire Naturalists Union database - could your church be a Lincolnshire Lepidoptera Hotspot?

If you would be interested in meeting the nocturnal visitors in your local churchyard in 2018 then please get in touch. [email protected]. 01790 754079

If interested or just want further details please contact June on 01754 830203.

14 "To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible that to be alive without breathing" Martin Luther

In all loving relationships there needs to be good communication, time spent sharing events of the day, time spent reflecting, laughing together, time listening and sometime simply being with one another and saying nothing, just enjoying be with the other person. We all know how vital it is to keep sharing with one another in order for the relationship to be nourished and flourish.

It is exactly the same for us with our relationship with God. Yes our God is a King and has majesty and splendor but also remember he sent his Son to be among us, to die for us, to show the extent of his love for us. No matter how we may feel from time to time it is always good to be remembered of that fact. The only way we can sustain our relationship and deepen it with God is through prayer.

I can hear you say "Not again, she wrote about prayer last time?" That is quite true, I did and have decided to do so again as it is so important, it is our life line if we are really to feel alive. Whatever we are doing in our personal lives or in the life of our church we need to "take it to the Lord in prayer" as one of the Hymns suggests. To soak it in prayer, to immerse ourselves totally.

Jesus took time out of a busy schedule to be with the Father, if he had to do this to sustain his life how much more do we need to do it. A few weeks ago the Diocese "launched" the Community of St Hugh. That may sound rather "holy" but it is a simple yet vital initiative to encourage us all to pray. To set time aside whenever we can, that fits into our daily pattern of life our "rhythm" of life to pray the Collect of St Hugh, to pray for the work of the diocese and for our churches. No set time or length of time specified, that is up to us, we just have to "sign up" for 1 year and then it is reviewed.

Whether we join in with the Community of St Hugh or prefer to do something else let us be encouraged to turn to prayer. A gentle reminder that on a Monday and Thursday there is a time of prayer at Noon at Tetford church, On Tuesdays prayer takes place at Partney Church and on Wednesday at Skendleby Church. A time of reflective prayer to pray for the whole village and the life of the village, to seek God's way for growth and how the church can become more involved in the community it serves. If you can spare 15 minutes on any of these days, to be there to meditate on what God wants to happen that would be wonderful. If you are unable to get there or to make the times please join in at home. If you would like a copy of the prayer sheet please let me know. Blessings, Teresa

Rev’d Fran’s Bit

November is a time for remembrance – with All Souls encouraging to think about the people we have loved and lost this year, and Armistice Day bringing those fallen in armed conflicts to the fore. But it is also the last month of the Church Year. The New Year starts on Advent Sunday (3 December 2017) so November is a good time to look back over the past 12 months and take stock.

Where have we grown, how have we behaved, and what plans did we make that never even got off the ground? All of these questions, and more, demand answers as we look back.

But the point of looking back is to then look forward. In the light of all we did or failed to do, in the light of our increased growth (or lack of growth) do we go forward with hope?

This year the Advent course prepared by the Diocese will pick up on a phrase from our diocesan vision statement – ‘… transforming lives in Great Lincolnshire’. We’ll spend a week each thinking about how lives may be transformed through prayer, through care, through justice and through vision. This is the hope we need as we move forward into the next Church year. The themes are centred around the Old Testament readings for the four Sundays of Advent. There will be materials for study and prayer groups, as well as daily devotional readings and prayers for individual or family use. The materials will be available shortly.

So why not join a group? It may be something you have not done before – but your contributions will be valued by all, and you will find a warm welcome. Your clergy will have more details.

Before we get to Advent, though, take this month as an opportunity to remember and reflect – and to celebrate all we have done. After all, is that not why fireworks were invented?

FAMILY SERVICE

The Harvest Festival for St James Church was held on the first Sunday in October which was the Family Service Sunday. Dr Mike Morgan kindly loaned some unusual implements connected with farms and farming. The congregation and the children were invited to guess what they were. There were wimbles, sheep shears, a boot jack, foot protector, leather head covering for a ram and many others. Reverend Joan Thornett talked about Thanksgiving and how we often accept God's gifts without thanks. Thanksgiving should be an action. John Hobson and David Smith read the lessons. The Church had been beautifully decorated with flowers and the donated food gifts were taken to New Life for the food bank.

The service was followed by a Harvest ploughman's lunch, apple pie and Dennett's ice cream. Over forty people attended and were very complimentary to Janet Skinner and Jane Howsam who prepared it. The lunch was a new venture for the Church and was very successful. Thank you to everyone who helped in any way. Over £200 was raised.

CAISTOR MALE VOICE CHOIR

Caistor Male Voice Choir gave a concert in St James Church on September 30th. The programme was very varied with sea shanties and a variety of other songs, monologues and instrumentalists on the horn, organ and accordian. This was the last concert of the season and £290 was raised for Church funds.

There have been some excellent concerts in the Church this year to celebrate the renovation of the William Hill organ. Many local organists and organists from further afield have enjoyed the opportunity to play this beautiful instrument and it is hoped that more organists and choirs will come next year. The Elizabethan Singers from Alford were so impressed with the venue that they have asked if they can come again next year. They will be singing music for Lent and Easter on Friday 23rd March 2018 in preparation for Holy Week.

With your generosity, I raised £330, which will be split equally between the Trust and St James’ Church. So a big “thank you” to you all and God bless, Dave S

Coffee Mornings Thank you to all who have supported the St James coffee mornings. We raised a staggering total of £1444 including tombolas and raffles.

23 More Newhome thoughts on Computers.

Well this month I thought I would talk about a few email problems that have come up recently. As you may or may not know Yahoo, one of the big email providers, has been taken over by Verizon. Here is a quote from www.theverge.com, on Jun 13, 2017,

“As of today, Verizon is officially the owner of Yahoo. Yahoo’s assets are now being mashed up with those of AOL, which Verizon bought in 2015, into a horribly named new division called Oath. Oath will contain sites like HuffPost, Yahoo Sports, TechCrunch, and Engadget, as well as apps and services like Alto and Brightroll. Tumblr will also fall under the Oath umbrella.”

As you can see this is heading into major changes, the effect of which some of us are seeing in terms of our email. I have had several calls with, “Help my email has stopped,” and I have also experienced one weeks worth of mail appearing in one day. The ones I got were all from ordinary users. Big company mail had continued as normal so it is not obvious that some are missing.

So what do we do here? Well there are two options; first is to sit back and wait for it all to settle down. This is OK if you are not a business that relies on fast mail services, which I guess many of my readers are not. Just be aware of the potential problems and check that things are getting done. Second option is that you could open a second email account with the likes of Microsoft's hotmail or Google's Gmail. This is easy to do. Search for hotmail, then choose sign-in from the results. At the bottom of the sign-in dialog box is 'No account? – create one'. Follow that link and fill in the form. For Gmail, search for 'create a gmail account'. Again follow the online form. Both are free.

The second option does not cure the problem that everyone knows your existing address and changing can be tedious to say the least. What I suggest is that you start a new account and send to all your contacts that you have this new account and why. Now you sit back and watch carefully whether or not Yahoo stays working for you; or be more proactive and start using the new account while keeping the old one going. You can login to the old account and under settings you can 'Forward' mail to the new account. This should save you logging in and out of two accounts, as all of the mail from the Yahoo account should appear in the new account.
