In the Greek language, the language the Bible is faith. written in, they have three words. There is philio, eros and agape. Each sort of love is given to us by Most of us will never be called to express our love in God and rightly used is immensely valuable, and in that way, but if we love in an agape way we will love fact points to our relationship with God. with a sort of self giving, a dying to self, that focuses completely on the well being of the other.

Café Church th On January 8 we celebrated Epiphany at St Andrew‘s - the visit of the Magi to the infant Jesus. The children searched for gifts around the Church and then unwrapped them. Each table answered a quiz sheet referring to ‗Kings‘ which was very interesting. The children also made crowns which were judged at the end of the service. They all looked magnificent with Natasha West being chosen as the winner and receiving a box of chocolates for her prize, although as you will see from the picture they all did very well. They were also able to ice and decorate bis- cuits in the shape of crowns. An Epiphany party followed after the service with plenty to eat and drink.

    CENTRAL BEDFORDSHIRE LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION – AUGUST 2017 On behalf of Bellcross Company (including Bellcross Homes and Kensworth Builders Ltd) 25th August 2017 INTRODUCTION 1. The following representations are made by Rapleys on behalf of the Bellcross Company (including subsidiaries, Bellcross Homes and Kensworth Builders Ltd) in respect of their land interests within Central Bedfordshire. 2. The land interests are fourfold – Land off Parkside, Houghton Regis, comprising some 13.8ha being promoted for residential development; Land off Trafalgar Drive, Flitwick, comprising some 7.3ha being promoted for residential development; Land off Dunstable Road, Caddington, comprising some 46ha, part of which is being promoted for residential development; and Land off Chalton Heights, Chalton, comprising some 14ha being promoted for mixed residential/employment/roadside development. 3. All four sites have previously been promoted through the iterations of the Local Plan and call for sites exercises. Rapleys welcomes the opportunity to participate in this consultation exercise and provide the following comments below in respect of the Councils draft Local Plan. 4. The representation commentary focusses in generic terms on the overall strategy being considered by the Council, as this is a major element of this consultation and should be read in that context. It is important to get this right rather than be too centred at this stage on the more general development control policies such as affordable housing, open space provision, etc. We reserve the right to provide further comment on these matters at the appropriate time (i.e., the next consultation). Separate comment is then provided in respect of each of the client sites.

  • I Am Writing to Make You Aware of the Boundary Commission for England's 2023 Review of Parliamentary Constituencies; Details Are Available at Their Website Here
    I am writing to make you aware of the Boundary Commission for England's 2023 Review of Parliamentary constituencies; details are available at their website here. I would encourage you to circulate this amongst your parish councillors and they may wish to share with the wider community. I would like to stress that none of this is intended as political comment; this is not any reflection on our MPs past or present, it is about representation in the future. Also, this is parliament and not local government; it has no effect on my Central Bedfordshire ward nor when my current term of office will end. There is a basic principle that parliamentary constituencies, and the number of people any one MP represents, should contain broadly equal numbers of constituents. Over time, due to housing growth and people's natural migration from one area to another, the balance shifts and some constituencies become significantly "underweight" whilst others run some way "over". Boundary reviews look at whether, by redefining how the lines are drawn, the numbers can be rebalanced. The boundary commission have published a set of proposals which are open to consultation; I would expect that many alternative proposals will be suggested amongst the consultation responses. Whilst the primary considerations are voter numbers and creating constituencies that (however oddly shaped they may be) are not split into two parts, there is also consideration given to how neighbouring but varied communities are grouped together. The draft proposals move the civil parishes of Studham, Kensworth and Whipsnade into a redrawn Luton South. It seems inevitable that the two Luton constituencies will be reshaped; an alternative may be that Studham, Kensworth and Whipsnade are left unchanged and Caddington, Slip End & Hyde are moved to join with what is currently South-West Bedfordshire (although that will also be reshaped and renamed).
