Not quite a ‘new’ year any more and a distinct possibility that our resolutions have already vanished into the middle distance. The post-Christmas glow has well and truly worn off, but spring isn’t quite here. Or is it? F In Hambledon and Busbridge churchyards the snowdrops are out, soon to be followed by the crocuses. That surely ought to be a harbinger of better days to come. (Though as the plants are so confused after last summer, I don’t know how good an indicator they are any more. The clematis by our front door had a wonderful flower on it, all through December …) For me, February is probably one of my least favourite months. Not because I suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), which is a genuine problem for many people, but simply because, by and large, it is cold and dark, and the days are grey. And I love the sunshine! But, in the midst of the darkness, there is light. The 2nd of February is the Feast of Candlemas, which marks the mid-point of winter, halfway between the shortest day and the Spring Equinox. It also marks the end of the season of Epiphany. It is the day when Christians remember the presentation of Jesus in the temple, and the holy family’s encounter with two faithful servants of God: Simeon and Anna. In keeping with Jewish custom, Joseph and Mary took Jesus to the temple, to present him to God and give thanks for his birth. While they were there, Simeon approached them; he immediately recognized this child as the Messiah, for whom Israel had been waiting since Old Testament times. The Holy Spirit had revealed to him that he would not die until he had seen the Messiah. So, for Simeon, this was a very special moment! His paean of praise – the Song of Simeon , or Nunc Dimittis – reminds us that Jesus came as the Light of the world*. In what can be a dreary time of year, not only it is a welcome reminder of all that we have been celebrating throughout Christmas and Epiphany, but it also holds the promise of lighter days to come: Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you may now dismiss your servant in peace. For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all people: a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel. * John’s gospel, chapter 8, verse 12 The Rev Margot Spencer Assistant Minister, Hambledon&Busbridge Hambledon Parish Magazine, February 2019, Page 4 CHURCH CALENDAR February 2019 3rd February 9.00 am Holy Communion (BCP) & Baptism 5th Sunday before Lent 10.30 am All Age Worship ___________________________________________________ Thursday 7th February 9-9.30 am Morning Prayer ___________________________________________________ 10th February 9.00 am Morning Prayer (BCP) 4th Sunday before Lent 10.30 am Holy Communion (CW) ___________________________________________________ Thursday 14th February 9-9.30 am Morning Prayer ___________________________________________________ Saturday 16th February 8.30-10 am Prayer Breakfast A time to meet together for prayer.

  • Thursley Welcome Pack
    Thursley Welcome Pack Thursley Welcome Pack 1.0 Introduction Welcome to our parish! This document is intended to provide you with a brief introduction to the history and the facilities available in our parish. 2.0 Thursley Parish Thursley has a comparatively small population (approx. 600) resident in one of the larger parishes (8 sq. miles) of the 21 in the Borough of Waverley, South West Surrey. The parish runs south from its border with Elstead Parish to the southern edge of the Devil’s Punch Bowl near Hindhead. Many years ago, the parish boundaries of Thursley extended as far as Haslemere, but now they are curtailed. They run around Thursley Common, including Warren Mere, and cut across to Bowlhead Green almost to Brook, then back past Boundless Farm to the Devil’s Punch Bowl. They then continue round the bowl to Pitch Place, down to Truxford and back on to the common again. Thursley Welcome Pack Thursley has a cricket green, a large recreation ground which allows parking and a play area upgraded in 2015 as a result of community funding. It attracts many visitors who come to see the village and the local commons via the extensive footpath and bridleway network. The Greensand Way runs through the parish. Bowlhead Green also has an attractive green, and is more agricultural in character than Thursley. Pitch Place has Hankley Common to the north, the orchards and fruit farms to the south and tracks that lead to Hindhead Common and beyond. In popular myth the name Thursley is of Scandinavian origin, meaning the “sacred grove of Thor”, the Norse god of thunder.

Murphy Email: pwmurphy215@ supanet.com 5th January 2015 Planning Services, Waverley Borough Council, The Burys, Godalming, Surrey Gu7 1HR For the attention of: Mr Matthew Ellis Dear Mr Ellis, Re: Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012. Designation of Elstead and Weyburn as a Neighbourhood Area. Elstead Parish Council and Peper Harow Parish hereby formally apply for designation of the Neighbourhood Area in respect of Elstead Parish and Weyburn. This is required by Part 2, paragraph 5 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012. Elstead Parish Council and Peper Harow Parish have formally agreed to work together on a joint plan to include the Weyburn site in a Neighbourhood Plan. Although the Weyburn site is mainly located in Peper Harow, due to its proximity, any development would have a major impact on Elstead village and its infrastructure. Peper Harow, in its entirety covers an area of 534 hectares. Its boundaries are with Elstead to the west, Shackleford to the north and Godalming and Milford to the east and south. It has a small community, incorporating a large country estate, of only 200 residents living in approx. 80 properties. It has no public facilities. The Weyburn site is located to the far west of the area, adjacent to the Elstead Parish boundary. Elstead Parish has a community of approx. 2,500 residents residing in approx. 1,100 properties in an area covering 1,104 hectares. It has a range of shops including a grocery store, post office and greengrocers.
