Recently I read the Nasa report on climate change. It says climate change is It happened, proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia. Gasses, At the dawning of a new day in the quiet of a garden, such as carbon dioxide and methane contribute to the greenhouse effect resulting On a mountain in Galilee, in oceans warming, glaciers melting, sea levels rising, ocean acidification and global As they sat at table, temperature rise. On a walk in the country, Sharing an evening meal, Climate change is affecting all people in the world, biblical proportions of rainfall has impacted on us locally and across the country. Families have been rescued By the sea shore at daybreak, from flooded houses, animals moved from grazing fields and farmland devastated The Risen Christ appeared to them, by water. the solitary woman, a few friends, Coronavirus is nearly at pandemic stage. Shelves in supermarkets are emptying, eleven disciples, especially of toilet paper. Football games are suspended, schools, colleges and universities are under threat of closure and hospitals are preparing for large intakes And he said, “Do not be afraid”, “Believe, it is I – your friend”, “Peace be with of patients. you”. Well, in the midst of all this I had to smile because recently I read an article that Staggering isn’t it? Jesus appears in such everyday places; the sort of places you said the Bible was stuck in history and had nothing to say in today’s world, and I know, and I hope you have the occasion to enjoy – a talk over a kitchen especially about climate change. To be fair climate change wasn’t an issue in the table, a meal with friends, dawn breaking in on a garden, a trip to the sea or Iron Age or even when the New Testament was written 2000 years ago. Well, that mountains. In some ways nothing very special at all, except that Jesus will be maybe is true, but the truth of it is, is the Bible has a lot to say. God spoke words there with us, whether we are part of a crowd or on our own. He is wanting us of wisdom back then and those words are just as important today. Throughout to hear him say “Believe, it is I, your friend – things have changed because I live the Bible God shows us just how much He cares for all He created, humankind, – let me show you”. animals, land and the environment. God tells us to look after the trees and not to cut them down (Dt 20:19, 21:19), to care for his land, look after his animals, and Jesus came to the them on that first Easter with Good News. He brought words He tells us to eat more green plants (Genesis 1:11-13, 29-30) (This would cut down of hope and, by his presence he showed them how “his” life, death and on methane emissions). resurrection changed things for ever. He told them to share this Good News, As I write this every news channel on TV gives updates on coronavirus. I listen and and by “their” lives to bring new hope and change to the world around them. watch as we are told how we should wash our hands thoroughly. In schools small The Risen Christ still meets us in all places today. He comes with the same children are being taught to sing ‘happy birthday to you’ twice over when they greeting as he gave everyone that first Easter “Believe, it is I – your friend. Peace wash their hands, and I smile, because washing our hands thoroughly is not new, be with you”. He brings the same invitation “Let me show you how when you the Bible (stuck back in history) quite clearly tells us how important it is to wash trust and follow me, “your” life and the world will change”, and he gives us the our hands regularly (Mk 7:3-4). same commission “Go, and tell others that I live”. And so, in these difficult and challenging times if we took a moment to open the May every blessing of Easter hope, joy and peace be with you. Bible ‘that has nothing to say’ to us today, we will discover that God is our helper, our comforter and our faithful friend, and He most certainly has a lot to say to us Sarah today to help us to ‘wash our hands’ and care for His good creation and one another. Sue Hiscocks (Reader in training). 5 6 Diocesan Prayers you may like to say at home “Open Conversations about the Future of our Church” in these troubled times In December I wrote of Bishop John’s invitation to join an “Open Conversation” about the Future of our Church.

  • Worcestershire Has Fluctuated in Size Over the Centuries
    HUMAN GENETICS IN WORCESTERSHIRE AND THE SHAKESPEARE COUNTRY I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Abet ystwyth Received7.x.66 1.INTRODUCTION THEwestern limits of Worcestershire lie about thirty miles to the east of Offa's Dyke—the traditional boundary between England and Wales —yet Evesham in the south-eastern part of the county is described by its abbot in a petition to Thomas Cromwell in as situated within the Principality of Wales. The Star Chamber Proceedings (No. 4) in the reign of Henry VII refer to the bridge of stone at Worcester by which the king's subjects crossed from England into Wales and the demonstrations against the Act of 1430 regulating navigation along the Severn were supported by large numbers of Welshmen living on the right bank of the river in Worcestershire. The object of the investigation is to ascertain whether significant genetic differences exist in the population of Worcestershire and south-western Warwickshire and, in particular, whether the people living west of the Severn are more akin to the Welsh than to the English. The possibility of determining, on genetic grounds, whether the Anglo- Saxon penetration was strongest from the south up the rivers Severn and Avon, or across the watershed from the Trent in the north, or from the east through Oxfordshire and Warwickshire is also explored. 2. THECOUNTY Worcestershirehas fluctuated in size over the centuries and Stratford-on-Avon came for a period under its jurisdiction while Shipston-on-Stour, now a Warwickshire township, remained in one of the detached portions of Worcestershire until the turn of the present century.

  • Lime Kilns in Worcestershire
    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury
