This is such a good thing – not because full churches are a good thing, but because the good news about Jesus is a great thing, and we long for people to hear it. During June we have been looking in the sermons at the way God speaks that good news (‘the gospel’) to us, and beginning in July we shall be looking at the way Mark tells us that good news in his Gospel. In the summer I try to re-read Bishop J. C. Ryle’s Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century. At the beginning of the book, Ryle tells us how new life was brought to thousands of people in England at that time. He says that those Christian leaders used ‘neither more nor less than the old apostolic weapon of preaching.’ At that time, France experienced a political revolution. But England experienced a spiritual revolution as people heard the good news about Jesus from the Bible and put all their trust in him. If I have one concern about the current talk about growing churches, it is this: there isn’t enough talk about prayer. St Paul, writing to new Christians in Corinth, said, ‘I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth.’ (1 Corinthians 3.6) Growth is God’s work, so let’s ask God to do it! It would be so good to have a few more people at our weekly Prayer Gathering on Wednesday evenings in St Mary’s at 5 p.m. It lasts exactly an hour and no previous experience is necessary – only a desire to ask God to do his work among us by his word. It might be that you’re reading this as someone still thinking through the claims of Jesus. If so, please know that we are praying for you! We long for you to know the good news about Jesus. Please come to our meetings and ask us questions. We don’t always have the answers, but we do have eternal treasure! For the rest of us, do have a think over the summer about your reading. More and more of us are taking Explore, dated Bible reading notes to help us to understand the Bible better. Bible reading is absolutely vital for Christians. But have a think about other books you could read, too. If you’re not sure where to begin, there are copies of John Chapman’s A Fresh Start in both churches, and I do commend it to you.

Val’s game planning came into full swing and made the most of the opportunity to play outside. Lots of fun not to mention skills development. Dorothy was Val’s right- hand person ensuring any little problems were soon dealt with and solved. Traditionally the last meeting of the year is barbecue night and thanks to Stuart the children enjoyed hot dogs (plus a whole bottle of ketchup)!! And of course whilst all this activity was going on Verena quietly got all the little jobs done – much appreciated by the rest of the team. We always have a quiet period with something to think about so Kate introduced a story about the ‘Heather’ a lovely short tale with ‘a lesson’ to be learnt. So that’s it until September. It is a privilege for all of us to play a very small part in the lives of our young people. We also, as a team, get on well and enjoy our AD evenings. We wish those who have become too ‘old’ for AD well in the future and look forward to some new faces joining us in September. Have a lovely summer. The AD Leaders. 4 St George’s Church Arts Event - 14 June 2015 Displays of art and craft work decorated the church giving a warm welcome to people, despite the very inclement weather outside. Lovely music from the String Quartet, delightful singing from the School Choir, thoughtful poetry and the fantastic Joyce Grenfell made up the first half – much enjoyed by all. This gave way to the interval drinks and nibbles and the chance to chat to old friends and new. After a nice spell of socialising it was on to the second half when Iris pleased the audience very much with her violin playing accompanied by Mum, Roger’s talent on double bass was appreciated, the Strings, Joyce Grenfell and poetry reading made a return performance and finally the Church Choir sang some ‘not quite Sunday morning’ pieces. Well done to the vocal soloists Roger and Neil. A huge thank you to Sue Ogden whose wonderful talent as a pianist kept many items going without a hitch. Sarah conducted the School Choir, Year 2 teacher Mrs Maddison came along to support the children, Ian and Louis attended to the wine and soft drinks requests and everyone enjoyed nibbles given by a number of St. George’s Church members. Lots of pleasurable entertainment but above all the spark of friendship that ran through the evening made it a real occasion to treasure. Very many thanks to all. Brockholes 2015 I am pleased to report a small increase in the amount collected via the red envelopes. A total of £309 has been sent to Christian Aid collected by St George’s and Brockholes Methodist Churches. Thank you for your support - Elizabeth Mosley St Mary’s is a member of Honley Business Association (HBA). Through it we are able to meet, and make good and useful relationships with, the shop and business owners in the village. On Tuesday 7 July at 7.00 p.m. HBA is holding an Open Evening in the upstairs conference room at the premises of Stead Robinson (at the junction of Thirstin Road and Scotgate Road).

From Easter Day onwards, we shall be part of the new Diocese of West Yorkshire and the Dales. We shall have a new (interim) Area Bishop of Huddersfield, Tony Robinson. New people will be taking on rôles in the parish. Most importantly, God offers each of us new life in Jesus Christ, whom he raised from the dead.

I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

What a privilege to have so many visitors among us! Speaking of the two Christian essentials – the Bible and prayer – the apostle Paul tells us: ‘Be wise in the way you act towards outsiders; make the most of every opportunity.’ (Colossians 4.5) It will be good for each of us to have some words prepared about how we came to faith in Jesus Christ, so we can share life- changing good news with those who are among us. Do also think about whom you could invite to Hymns and Pimms at 6.30 pm in St Mary’s on 6th July. Life-changing good news is why we are here. I keep hearing encouraging stories about what a blessing Alpha has been to so many, and God has clearly been at work by his Holy Spirit.

  • Calderdale Way Walking Route
    Calderdale Way, walk route – dramatic West Yorkshire The Calderdale Way is a 50 mile (80 km) walk exploring the hills, moors and valleys of Calderdale. It is an ‘up and down’ journey with few level sections. The higher levels, however, provide some exceptionally fine panoramic views. There are some steep sections and there will be muddy parts following wet weather. Some areas of moorland are exposed. Mileage details, which are approximate, are given for longer sections with intermediate distances. The best walking and views as with all walks, would be in sunny weather following a dry spell. Appropriate footwear and clothing is needed for every part. The walk is accessible by public transport. Additionally it can be split into short walks also by using public transport. Additionally, there are many link paths. For example, an easy walk would be the three mile Norland to Ripponden section. Take the bus from Halifax to Norland and then walk on the level and downhill to Ripponden with another bus back to Halifax. Another even shorter walk combined with sight-seeing, would be to take the train to Hebden Bridge, bus to Heptonstall, and walk ¾ mile down to Hardcastle Crag and bus back to Hebden Bridge. The whole walk is circular and so can be started at any point; this starts at Brighouse. There are bus services to each of the distance points. Train services are available at Brighouse, Todmorden, Hebden Bridge, Mytholmroyd, Sowerby Bridge and Halifax. Route map and accommodation links at end of these details. Brighouse, Southowram, West Vale, Norland, Ripponden, Mill Bank (11.5 miles; start satnav HD6 1PQ) This section is a relatively easy introduction to the walk.

Harvest thereby becomes not a sentimental denial of the problems which face the earth, but a celebration that God’s love in Jesus Christ transforms the earth.

  • Huddersfield (Town Centre and University) to Holmfirth (Town Centre)
    Holmfirth Transitional Town Proposed Cycle Route – Huddersfield (town centre and university) to Holmfirth (town centre). The proposal seeks to create, as far as possible, an off road cycle path between the town centres of Huddersfield and Holmfirth, together with link paths from other significant Holme Valley settlements, notably Honley, Brockholes, Netherthong, New Mill and Wooldale. In addition to these settlements there are a number of other significant workplace and school destinations linked to or on the proposed route, notably Thongsbridge, Armitage Bridge, Lockwood, Folly Hall, Kirklees College, and Honley and Holmfirth High Schools Where an off road path is not considered to be achievable, the proposed route utilises the road network, with appropriate amendments and improvements to create a safe cycling environment. The existing and proposed routes are described below in clearly identifiable sections. Existing routes include some off road paths which are usable and used currently for cycling, and which will become part of the complete route, subject to any necessary improvements.
