Leo Houlding on Rock Climbing WHY WE CELEBRATE HARVEST We Plough The Fields and Scatter will probably have either been sung or will be sung in our chapels and churches over the next few weeks – yet the proportion of workers in agriculture and fishing has now slumped to a record low of 1 per cent. In fact the number, for England and Wales, is down from 22 per cent in 1841, according to the Office for National Statistics. Harvest has traditionally been an opportunity to thank God for the crops and food that has been safely gathered in ‘ere the winter storms begin but as towns have grown in size, we have become more dependent on supermarkets – and food, it seems, is always in season. And yet Jesus taught us to pray ‘Give us this day our daily bread’. Harvest is not a new invention. In the Old Testament we learn that Cain and Abel attempted to thank God for their crops and Moses gave thanks to God as recorded in Genesis chapter 8 – and they are doing so partly because they knew that ‘The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it’ (Genesis 2:15). Today we live in times of austerity in the UK when we see an increasing use of food and clothing banks by our poor, and a clamour from some to cut our aid to the poor overseas. Imagine a world in which we demonstrate God’s heart for the poor, for social equality and His longing to have a people who trust in Him as their provider. Last month I attended a meeting held at The Rheged Centre in Penrith which was chaired by Lord Inglewood to highlight the plight of all sectors of the farming industry. One of the invited speakers was MP for Penrith & Borders Rory Stewart who said the government have put certain things in place to help farmers but acknowledged that the government could also do more. Those present had the opportunity of also expressing their views. The practice of giving food at Harvest now largely consists of watching the children in our church congregations bring tins to the front of the church during the first harvest hymn. This food, usually added to a display, is then distributed to local or national needs. However, according to thesheepdip.co.uk, in some fellowships this practice been done away with altogether. Perhaps this is a mistake because Harvest is a reminder that all good gifts around us are sent from heaven above. An important reason to celebrate Harvest is education. Many charities run harvest appeals, offering information about their work to bring good harvests to the world’s poor, but we also need to think about those children who think that food comes from the supermarket. Harvest is a great opportunity for us to remind ourselves of the link between the working of the land and the food on our plates. For the fruits of His creation – thanks be to God. Rev.
