  • Reflections & Prayers for Sunday 11 October 2020
    Reflections & Prayers for Sunday 11th October 2020 This week we look at Stewardship. During lockdown, many have used their gifts, abilities, and talents God has given by sewing masks, scrubs, or doing shopping for those isolating – all ways of loving our neighbours. Today Tom Venner helps us look at loving God with our money. 1 Contents Reading for this Sunday p. 2 Reflection p. 3-5 Prayers p. 6-7 Parish Prayers p. 8-9 Gospel Reading Luke 18:18-30 A certain ruler asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: ‘You shall not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; Honor your father and mother.’” He replied, “I have kept all these since my youth.” When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “There is still one thing lacking. Sell all that you own and distribute the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.” But when he heard this, he became sad; for he was very rich. Jesus looked at him and said, “How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God! Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?” He replied, “What is impossible for mortals is possible for God.” Then Peter said, “Look, we have left our homes and followed you.” And he said to them, “Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, who will not get back very much more in this age, and in the age to come eternal life.” 2 Reflection from Tom Venner It is commonly said that one should not speak of religion, politics or money in polite society, but in today’s Gospel Jesus is challenging us to think of all three.

  • Baptist Churches in the Bedford Area (Continued)
    Baptist Churches in the Bedford Area (Concluded) SANDY BAPTIST Dr. John Brown says that in 1676 Sandy had 600 inhabitants and twenty-two Nonconformist members. These were, apparently, members at Bedford and worshipped at Blunham. In 1756 John Berridge began to preach the gospel at Everton, near Sandy, and ~ohn Skilleter, of Sandy, with his wife and sons, were among the converts. Berridge died in 1793, and the Skilleter family joined Blunham Baptist in 1794, Jeremy Skilleter building a small chapel there in 1797. In 1826 or 1827 some withdrew and built a chapel for High Calvinistic preaching, but were not able to pay for the building. John Foster of Biggleswade bought it, and Sandy Baptist used it for evening services instead of Jeremy Skilleter's smaller building. In 1854 a third chapel was built on the site of the second at a cost of about £800 of which William Skilleter gave £400. In 1858 C. H. Spurgeon preached twice in the open air, and the collections cleared the debt. A fourth chapel, to seat 450, was opened in 1888, and a new school room in 1929, and the 1854 building was sold. In 1864, William Skilleter presented a manse for the Pastor's residence. SHARNBROOK OLD BAPTIST The church was formed in 1719, and ~he Church Book begins then, with a Covenant. The church declared for Open Member­ ship: "if any Person have Light into Baptism they shall have it administered unto them. And if not that Light, to receive them as Saints." There was to be no sprinkling of infants, and they would hold Communion with all when they judged faithful.
