Tottey Vicarage, FOR May, 1957.

My dear Friends, VAI{IETY & SEKVICE There was a day when some Greeks came to 51. Philip and said-e-'Sir, We would see Jesus". Perhaps it is not too much to say that with the request of these Greeks came the turn~g· point of our Lord's work on earth. In that moment Christ was standing at the cross- roads of the world. He was receiving the Jew and Gentile alike. He had broken through all the boundaries of the nations. In Him all the dreams and desires and longings of the human heart had been fulfilled. SHOP "Sir, we would see Jesus". I believe that these words come to us all with a tremendous relevance in these days in which we live, and especially to those of us who are concerned with the mission of the Church and with the task of evangelism to AT which God has called us. I would suggest to you, first of all, that the request of the Greeks is a request which the world is still making. That may seem a strange thing to say in an age which has been called the most irreligious age in the history of the world. It may seem a strange thing to say about a generation of which it has been said that "for the first time in human history a generation has arisen which has no religion GRATTON'S and which feels the need of none". It may seem a strange thing to say at a time when only a small percentage of the adult population of this country ever attend a place of worship. He would certainly be a foolish man who would GROOERS OF REPUTE disregard or underestimate the tremendous barriers which are raised against the advance of Christ's Kingdom in the world of to-day. Let us be profoundly realistic in our appraisal of the situation in which God bas set us. Let us be constantlv concerned to discern the times in which we live. Let us never try to blind ourselves to the secularism of the modern world,

which has darkened our vision of the divine: or to its ..'[ materialism, which keeps us fettered to the things of this world find is bringing us to know the price of everything and Freshly Uoasted &.

Totley Vicarage, June, 1957. My dear Friends, Shakespeare puts into the mouth of one of his characters something which [ believe to he profoundly true-the fact that Baslow Road, Totley we should be "ever precise in promise keeping". There is indeed a sanctury about a promise which none of us can ignore. This prompts me to look into those occasions when a.nd you and I make promises of a serious kind. At our Baptism we made certain promises, whether in our own name or by our godparents. The Catechism teaches us to acknowledge that at Baptism our godparents "did promise and Abbeydale Rd..Millhouses vow three things" in our name. This means that if a promise .made to men is so solemn a thing. a promise made to God has F()R an added solemnity. At Baptism we made a c?nfessionof faith. Then in addition, we pledged our word to gIve up what is wrong, to believe what is true about eternal things. and to I F~TY & obey the laws of God. These promises are still binding VA !{ S f~KV ICE upon us. To use the words of Tennyson, they are- "Such vows as it is a shame A man should not be bound by". It is for us to ask ourselves how far these promises are being discharged. defended, or denied. \ Though few of us will remember our Baptism, all of us will surely be able to recall our Confirmation. For most o~ SHOP us it was at that period when we stood on the threshhold ot adult life, and when responsibilities began to crowd upon us. It was a period of inward struggle and tension. At that age we were most receptive to the impact of noble ideas and high AT endeavour. There is indeed a wonderful nobilirv about this period of youth, when the best of us often shO'w :! healthy impatience with the compromises and evasions which seem to be easy in adult life. At that time we stood up to answer the Confirmation question put to us by the Bishop in a spirit of assured confidence, feeling that we were quite equal to what we avowed. We thought that we would be able to match our words with our deeds. So, whenever we see a group of young GRATTON'S people assembled to make the Confirmation promise and to receive the Divine blessing through the Laying on of Hands, we feel that the hope of the Church is being renewed. It is, of course, unfortunate that not all Confirmed Christians prove themselves to be equal to their holy profession. Yet we know GROCERS OF REPUTE that the grace of the Holy Spirit in which they are confirmed is always available for a fresh start. Even so, it is well to look back on the time when we made those sacred resolutions, asking how far we are seeking to discharge our promises, or whether we are merely deferring or even denying them. A little later in life there is another vital moment when we made other solemn promises. So much depends on the way in which we observe and fulfil them that it may be said that on our behaviour. and the behaviour of others who make Fr'eshly Iloasted & Groulld Daily. similar promises, the future well-being of the Church and the race depends. When Christian men and women pledge their lives to each other in marriage. they promise to live for each other to the exclusion of all others for the whole of their lives. Marriage, after all, is the spiritual union of two spiritual 71, BASLOW GOAD, natures for the making of a new home. In this way. marriage is taken \IP into the life of God: for this spiritual union is Tolley Rise, Tel 75038 effected in that spiritual sphere where We touch the life of God. and where He is in touch with us.

It is on the sanctity of marriage that the wholesomeness of family life depends. However, it is most unfortunate that the views of the Church and the State on marriage sometimes diverge.

Mv dear Friends, a.nd " August 6th this year was distinguished by a violent storm which did considerable damage in Sheffield and elsewhere. However, there are at least two other important things worth noting about that date. One of them is found in most diaries under the single word "Transfiguration". Christians keep this Abbeydale RdR Millhouses day as a Feast Day. when they remember and give thanks for that ~onderful and mysterious event which took place on a mountain near Caesarea Philippi towards the end of our Lard's FOR ministry, The other important thing about that date is not marked in any diary I have seen, but I am sure it would be a great help to the cause of peace if it were insisted that it I ~~T'{ & should be printed in every diary. On August 6th it was VA !{ S l~~KV ICE exactly twelve years ago that the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, That bomb caused another kind of :ransfiguration with far-reaching consequences for the future of the world, Let us see why the Feast of the Transfiguration should be such an odd day to choose for an event of this kind. In order to do this we must first go back in history to an SHOP event that happened during the life of Moses. In the Book of Exodus we are told how Moses went up into a mountain and received from God the Law of the Israelites. Thev are primitive laws. but they were generally regarded as being' good moral laws and Christians. have always been prepared to AT accept and keep that section of the Law which we call the Ten Commandments. These laws, besides being religious in their content, marked a great step forward in humanitarianism. From blood feuds and wars of total extermination, these people moved forward into that kind of justice which demanded only "an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth", It was into this religious background that our Lord was GRATTON'S born, and it was these laws that He covenanted to keep when He was taken to the Temple at the age of twelve, and received into full membership of the Church. But, as those laws had been a great step forward in human relationships. so our Lord was to improve on them So that it would be like making new GROCERS OF REPUTE laws and going another step forward. Strict laws of justice were changed by the addition of love and mercy and there is a iong series of illustrations of this in what we call the "Sermon on the Mount". This was a tremendous step forward, and, as

we believe, here was the true Law of God c-' the Law of Love. We Christians would accept that as a fact from the teaching of our Lord; especially since He refers to the necessity of love and forgiveness if we ourselves expect such mercies from God. But in the story of the Transfiguration the Church received Freshly Quasted &. Ground Daily. another basis of authority for accepting the new law as that coming from God. Whatever else the story might mean, we have in it the samesvmbolism as was involved in that event when Moses went up" a mountain to receive the Law. Jesus was also the messenger of God's Law in that those who were 71, RASLOW ROAD, Vfith Him were told to listen and obey- "This is my beloved Son: hear Him", Nothing could be said more plainly: Jesus of Nazareth has my authority, do as He tells you!

Abbeydale Rd~Millhouses Bull of The Court, Anston Hall. Tetley Vicarage, September, 1957. FOk. My dear Friends, This month we celebrate our Harvest Thanksgiving. As you probably know, the origin of these services dates from VA-l{I l-~TY & S El{VIC.E the early years of the reign of Queen Vlctoria-vthe year 1843 to be precise. In that year the Vicar of the Cornish village of Morwenstow held a special thanksgiving service for the harvest of the sea, which happened to bea particularly good one. His idea was copied by other clergy in respect to the corn harvest. But about eleven years afterwards, the Queen herself suggested to the authorities of the Church of England that there should be a day set apart each year for the blessings of the harvest. SHOP The suggestion was complied with, and the. custom of bolding a "Harvest Festival" in every place of worship throughout tbe land bas become practically universal. This service inculcates the lesson that we recognise AT Almighty God to be the sale provider of our physical needs. We bring into the House of God flowers and fruits and vegetables as tokens that all the harvest of the fruits of the earth come from Him. When the British Sovereign visits the Duchy of Cornwall there are certain things which are always presented-a grey cloak, a brace of greyhounds, a pair of gilt spurs, a salmon spear, a pair of white gloves, a hundred GRATTON'S shillings and a pound of pepper! But they are not given to him (or her) because he needs them, or for their own worth. Each of them isa token of some right or privilege which these people hold by the grace of the .Sovereign. And they are recognised by these tokens that they are the gifts of the sovereign. And so we bring into Church some of the fruits of GROOERS OF REPUTE the earth not because He needs them, but as a token that all the harvest comes to us from Him. "That a day should be set apart for the blessings of the harvest"-so ran Queen Victoria's mandate. Which brings us to a second thing this service ought surely to mean. It should remind us of God's unfailing mercy. Once more the reaping time has come and although in some places this has been an indifferent havest, in others, it has been quite good. But if our English harvest had entirely failed in 1957 the Fl'e$ll1yRoasted 8l Ground Daily. Divine goodness would not be disproved. As you are aware, we produce in these islands, only a small proportion of our food requirements. What we ourselves produce is sufficient for only a few months of the year.

It is good to remember that there is a harvest in some land or other each month of the year.

The harvest reminds us that God always provides enough and to spare. It is His province to create and that of (ESl'ABUSBJ:D 1867'). man to distribute. It is a scathing reflection. on human kind that the people of any land should starve whilst there is food in another: that it should be burned, as has actually happened, sooner than reduce the price.

My dear Friends, I have recently received a dozen copies of a booklet published by the Church Commissioners for England and sent tor distribution to members of Parochial Church Councils as an explanation of their work and a statement of their Income and Expenditure for 1956/57. I believe this statement is worthy of a much wider circle of readers than the small number of booklets allow therefore I propose to reproduce its substance here for all our readers to sec. The statement begins : __,oA great deal of popular miscon- ceptionexists as to what the Church Commissioners do; what SH()P they do not do and what, in the view of some, they ought to do. The purpose of the booklet is to remove this miseoncep- tion and to give the facts to as many people as possible. The Commissioners' primary duty is to make better provision for the "cure of souls". Within this phrase, and AT under Acts of Parliament and Measurers of the Church Assembly, are included ;-- I. Financial Duties. (a) Additions to the stipends of the clergy. (b) The payment of pensions to retired clergy. (c) Help in providing for the clergy marc suitable houses than some of them have at present. GRATTON'S (d) Help in providing Churches, Church Balls and houses for the clergy in the new housing areas to which the population is shifting. (e) Making grants of capital to particular livings to match gifts by lay benefactors. GROCERS OF REPUTE II. Administrative Duties. Decisions, after considering the views of all concerned on :- (a) Uniting parishes, and arranging for two or more to become the responsibility of one clergyman. (b) The formation of new parishes. (c) The alteration of parish boundaries. (d) The demolition, or the appropriation to other uses, of churches which are no longer required for regular services, Fresh.ly Iloasted 8l Ground Daily. and where necessary, the sale of sites. .." .. " ... It is to be emphasised that no part of the Commissioners' ' income comes from the State by way of grant or in any other :. form, so that no taxpayer or ratepayer is making any contribution unless he does so directly out of his own pocket. 71, BA5LOW ROAD, Assets.

The Problem. It is often supposed that if the clergy are badly paid that . is due to the meanness of the Commissioners, out of whose large income adequate stipends ought to be provided. Why is this supposition based on a fallacy? There are 11,362 rectors and vicars in England, each looking after one or more parishes. Last year the Commis- sioners paid out to them 'in stipends a total of £6,739.058. This total may appear substantial-but divide it by 11,362. It represents an average of only £11/8/11 a week to each rector and vicar in the Church of England. Stipends. In 14 out of the 42 dioceses the minimum stipend for incumbents from all sources now exceeds £600 a year plus a free house. In the other 28 it is £600 a year or below (Totley comes Into this latter category-Editor.) These figures show a substantial improvement On those of a few years ago, A Vre w of our Bakewell Pl'pm i!'>,es because of increased giving by the laity and because the C0!Umission~rs hav~ been able to increase their income by re-investment of capital, and by modem commercial methods.
