The Friday Email THE FRIDAY EMAIL Friday 15th January 2021 The Friday Thought from our Associate Priest, Revd Debbie Our lives are full of endless chatter, be that from the TV, radio, our phones, social media, you name it. As a result of the current crisis, I expect that you, like me, are watching more news items and government briefings than ever before. It seems we’re either being bombarded with noise or actively seeking it out; some would say like an addiction, which drowns out our own thoughts and opportunities for meaningful reflection. I do wonder at times, how much of the babble I really hear? The reading from Samuel underscores the importance of listening. While Samuel is sleeping, he believes he hears someone calling his name. So Samuel wakes up and runs to Eli thinking Eli has called. "Here I am, Lord," he says, running to old Eli who stumbles out of bed and grumbles, "Go back to sleep, you're hearing things." After responding to hearing his name called several times, Eli instructs Samuel to "Go to sleep, and if you are called reply: 'Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.'" So Samuel follows Eli's orders, and when called upon again, he responds accordingly. And so Samuel grows up with the Lord accompanying him, giving him insight, wisdom, and strength as one of his prophets. This was a time in Israel’s history when Israel was out of communication with God. Eli was getting too old to lead (his loss of vision is what happens to the elderly but is also symbolic of the people’s inability to see the things of God), and his sons were wicked. “The word was rare in those days". Because the Lord was quiet? Or because no one was really listening? 1 We can probably all tell stories, drawn from everyday life, that illustrate the importance of listening in the process of human communication. Comic strips and comedians regularly portray married couples failing to really hear each other. We’re reminded that we need to not only listen, but then to be open to what we hear, especially from God. As we open ourselves to the word of God, be comforted by Him accompanying us through good times and bad. Remember though, it all begins with listening. As the American priest and author Barbara Brown Taylor explains so eloquently in ‘When God is Silent’, prayer should be less “Lord, hear our prayer” and more “Speak Lord, for your servant is listening”. I'm afraid we’re in times like Samuel's. Revelations and visitations from God seem uncommon now. In fact, today if people say that God speaks out loud to them, they’re viewed as crazy by some. People seem to think that God is far away, or at least doesn’t directly and physically interact with people. Someone like Samuel, hearing his name called out loud, might himself suspect insanity instead of a visitation from God. Personally, I believe that God does call to us and does reveal himself and visit. Rarely, perhaps, with an audible voice, but in more subtle ways in our everyday lives. All the time, all around us, there are opportunities to help others physically and spiritually. So, as we go through our day, upcoming weeks and year, let’s take some time to turn off the chatter – there’s a lot of bad news out there, both nationally and internationally. Tune out the noise and tune in to taking the opportunity for prayer and reflection. Truly listen and allow God's words to guide us towards making a positive difference in the lives of those around us, even the world, in this New Year. May God bless you and keep you, Rev Debbie Sunday’s readings The first book of Samuel, chapter 3, verses 1 to 10 and 19-20: Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the Lord under Eli. The word of the Lord was rare in those days; visions were not widespread. At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see, was lying down in his room; the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was. Then the Lord called, ‘Samuel! Samuel!’ and he said, ‘Here I am!’ and ran to Eli, and said, ‘Here I am, for you called me.’ But he said, ‘I did not call; lie down again.’ So he went and lay down. The Lord called again, ‘Samuel!’ Samuel got up and went to Eli, and said, ‘Here I am, for you called me.’ But he said, ‘I did not call, my son; lie down again.’ Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, and the word of 2 the Lord had not yet been revealed to him. The Lord called Samuel again, a third time. And he got up and went to Eli, and said, ‘Here I am, for you called me.’ Then Eli perceived that the Lord was calling the boy. Therefore Eli said to Samuel, ‘Go, lie down; and if he calls you, you shall say, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.” ’ So Samuel went and lay down in his place. Now the Lord came and stood there, calling as before, ‘Samuel! Samuel!’ And Samuel said, ‘Speak, for your servant is listening.’ As Samuel grew up, the Lord was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground. And all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was a trustworthy prophet of the Lord. St John’s Gospel, chapter 1, verses 43-51: The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, ‘Follow me.’ Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip found Nathanael and said to him, ‘We have found him about whom Moses in the law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus son of Joseph from Nazareth.’ Nathanael said to him, ‘Can anything good come out of Nazareth?’ Philip said to him, ‘Come and see.’ When Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him, he said of him, ‘Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!’ Nathanael asked him, ‘Where did you come to know me?’ Jesus answered, ‘I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you.’ Nathanael replied, ‘Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!’ Jesus answered, ‘Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.’ And he said to him, ‘Very truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.’ The Collect – the special prayer - for the Second Sunday after Epiphany Almighty God, in Christ you make all things new: transform the poverty of our nature by the riches of your grace, and in the renewal of our lives make known your heavenly glory; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

The advantage of this was that it has enabled a composite picture of CIL viability issues to be presented to the clients and discussed collectively with them before finalisation, and there have been many benefits for them in considering these matters as a totality rather than viewing them in isolation. Each district indicated during the course of the report's preparation that they would want to publish a version that focused on data pertaining to that district, and isolated extraneous data relevant only to other authorities. This is that version: it is the authority specific report for Three Rivers District Council.

  • The Impact of the Straw Plait and Hat Trade in Nineteenth-Century
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Hertfordshire Research Archive How Saucy did it Make the Poor? The Straw Plait and Hat Trades, Illegitimate Fertility and the Family in Nineteenth-Century Hertfordshire NIGEL GOOSE University of Hertfordshire Abstract The straw plait and hat industry provided considerable employment for women and children in south and west Hertfordshire in the nineteenth century, but was absent in much of the north and east. Many contemporaries felt it had a deleterious effect upon morality and the stability of the family, and its regional specificity within Hertfordshire allows these propositions to be tested through a comparative analysis of illegitimacy and examination of the family circumstances of young straw workers. It is discovered that illegitimacy ratios often give a misleading impression, failing to take into account the size of the population ‘at risk’, while illegitimacy rates suggest only minor differences between straw and non-straw areas, a more noticeable feature of the data being the generally higher illegitimacy rates found in Hertfordshire’s small towns. Nor does the evidence suggest that the industry led to early break up of families. The rise and decline of illegitimacy in England between the late eighteenth and late nineteenth centuries presents a continuing conundrum, and while the growth and decay of the straw industry offers little explanatory value, this article suggests that the changing conditions in the agricultural labour

  • A Miller's Tale – the Life Of
    A MILLER’S TALE – THE LIFE OF THOMAS BURTON (1859 – 1938) Thomas Burton was a true scion of Sawbridgeworth. His grandfather John was born here in 1800, and in the 1841 census was living in Cock Street (now Bell Street) in the centre of the town, with his wife Sophia (née Waller) and family. Thomas’ father had the same name, being called Thomas Waller Burton. This Thomas was born in Sawbridgeworth in 1827. In the 1841 census he is shown as serving with the Royal Navy, but by 1851 has returned to Sawbridgeworth and is also living in Cock Street. He was married to Fanny Groves in 1857 and was a builder. Thomas was born in Cock Street on 5 April 1859. He was the second eldest of five children, having two brothers and two sisters. His very early life is obscure. Presumably he intended to follow his father into the building trade, but on 30 September 1885, Thomas married Clara Littler. This is important, because, although her father was a butcher, she was also a member of a long-established family of millers. As long ago as the early 1700s (between 1720 and 1737), an Andrew and Nathaniel Littler are recorded as the millers at both Sawbridgeworth Mill and Sheering Mill. Furthermore, in 1911 a Fanny Littler of Lower Sheering, is recorded as a mortgagee in respect of Sawbridgeworth Mill. Presumably, Thomas’ marriage to Clara made him think seriously about becoming a miller. Accordingly, in 1891, probably (given the 1911 Stort Deeds document) with financial help from the Littler family, he purchased Sawbridgeworth Mill from the local politician Edmund Broughton Barnard.

  • Sawbridgeworth Town Council's Response to EHDC Draft District Plan
    Sawbridgeworth Town Council Sayesbury Manor, Bell Street, Sawbridgeworth Hertfordshire CM21 9AN Tel: 01279 724537 MAYOR Fax: 01279 726966 Cllr Mrs Angela Alder e-mail: [email protected] TOWN CLERK web: www.sawbridgeworth-tc.gov.uk Richard Bowran BSc.(Hons) MILCM Response by Sawbridgeworth Town Council to the East Herts District Council Draft District Plan Preferred Options Consultation STC Response to EHDC Plan 150521 Page 1 Preamble Sawbridgeworth Town Council has held three open days over the period of the Consultation to learn the views of the parishioners of the town on the subject of the Preferred Options contained in the East Herts District Council Draft District Plan (DDP). The first two were held on the Farmers’ Market days on Saturday 01 March and Saturday 05 April 2014. The third took place as an integral part of the Annual Town Meeting which was held on Monday 14 April 2014. The role of the Town Council at this stage is to respond to the Preferred Option document. It is not the intention of the Town Council to be negative, however STC endorses the views of the large number of respondents who have already aired their views through the open days held at the Town Council and consultation at the Annual Town Meeting. Introduction There are three principal areas in the Preferred Options Consultation that are of concern parishioners of Sawbridgeworth. They are: Chapter 8: Sawbridgeworth Chapter 10: Villages Chapter 12: The Gilston Area These will be commented upon in turn, however, the general tenure of opinion must first be considered.
