At Dalton Piercy, Elwick and Hart at Dalton Piercy, Elwick and Hart Produced for the Villagers by Hart and Elwick Churches Rev. Canon Janet Burbury, The Vicarage , Hart, Hartlepool, TS27 3AP [email protected] Tel 01429 262340 Mob 07958 131271 Dear Friends Our churches are setting their 2019 budgets and deciding how much to offer the central funds which pay for all our legal structures, training, vicarages, stipends, church schools, safeguarding training and so on. Elwick and Hart try hard to raise our giving each year whilst bearing in mind the cost of maintaining our buildings, insurance, heating, resources, office equipment etc. Can we make money and our human economy sacred? Money can be the enemy of our better instincts blocking our generosity as we listen to that internal voice, “I can’t afford to”. Money is never a popular subject. Greed for it makes humanity raid the earth’s resources with too few courses of action to secure its sustainability and when politicians seek money rather than public good we call them worse than dirt. It’s been said that we cannot serve both God and Mammon. I know money do wonders to help society but on balance we more often than not feel those plastic looking folding notes are the root of many evils. Perhaps the biggest problem of money is the way we’ve come to see the physical aspects of life as separate from the sacred and holy. Once people decided that their folklore gods left their for- ests to live in the skies we started to think God is up there out of our world sitting on the clouds out of reach to us below. Can money be sacred? Jesus often talked about money and the way it can separate us from each other and from God. Money is an abstract thing, just a few symbols on a bit of paper or a list of figures in a bank. It can move without us even seeing or touching it online. It’s abstract, like a spirit and it governs us. In a recession money disappears and the tune to which we all dance, disappears too. Without money we become dispirited. We seem to have installed a ruling power in money that is soul- less, ungodly and unnatural. If only we could see money as a gift. To gift something (to give away) is to leave you empty – but that void pulls at others to encourage them to give to you as humanity hates emptiness. Giv- ing directs others to offer and so you receive their gift so it connects us together. A modern money transaction leaves no further obligation which separates us from each other once the transaction is over, whereas a gift exchange is open-ended leaving a tie of expectation and hope of reciprocation between people. If all things in the world are sacred then I wonder if we could manage the problems of money differently by seeing it as a gift system. In the beginning God made the world and gave us do- minion over all the plants and animals – what a gift?! What do we give back to God in return? On a lighter note (excuse the pun): A well-worn £5 note and a similarly distressed £50 note ar- rived at the office to be taken out of circulation. As they moved along the conveyor belt to the shredder they chatted. The £50 note reminisced about its extensive travels. “I’ve had a good life, I’ve been to Paris, New York, the finest restaurants in London and even cruised around the world” “Wow said the fiver, that’s impressive”. “So, tell me, says the £50 note, where’ve you been in your lifetime?” “Oh, I’ve been to the Methodist Church, The Anglican Church, The Catholic Church, the Assembly of God Church and the United Reformed Church…” and the £50 note says “What’s a church?” Every blessing – Revd Janet Regular Church Services ST PETER’S, ELWICK HALL 1st Sunday in the month: 10 am ~ Family Service with Holy Communion.

  • Newsletter Oct-Nov 2012
    Newsletter 1 of St. George’s URC Hartlepool OctOct–––– Nov 2012 Dear Friends, During my childhood there was a calendar hanging in our dining-room which was a picture of ‘the Boston Stump’. I always wondered where and what it was, but did not find out until last weekend. Well, they say that it is never too late to learn something! The Church of St. Botolph, Boston in Lincolnshire, affectionately known as ‘the Stump’ perhaps because it has the appearance of a tall tree with its branches lopped for felling, is the largest building in England that has always been a parish church. It is actually bigger than some cathedrals I have seen, standing about 250 feet high and 340 feet long. The building of the present church is believed to have begun in 1309, replacing an earlier Norman church, but the earliest church was founded in the seventh century by an Anglo- Saxon missionary monk called Botolph. The town was originally called Botolph’s Stone, which got shortened to Boston. When the church was first planned, Boston possessed a port that did more business than anywhere in England except London, and wool was the main export. Boston stands on ‘the Grand Sluice’, where fenland drains converge into The Haven, a tidal river that empties into the Wash. Mer- chants from all over Europe went to Boston in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries for the Great Fair which began on St. Botolph’s Day, 17 June, when they bought wool and cloth and sold their wines and furs. Sadly, by the time that the building was finished, the great days of Boston’s commercial prosperity had passed, but then Boston be- came a religious centre.

  • Fishmonger 1911
    Fishmonger 1911 This group, with 21 household in the 1911 census, is descended from Elizabeth Kipling, via her sons Lionel and James. Elizabeth was most likely the daughter of Joseph and Mary Kipling (see “Staindrop 1911”). Lionel and some of his descendants were fishmongers in Bishop Auckland in the 19th century. James and his family were shipbuilders, moving to West Hartlepool, Whitby and, in the 20th century, to Birkenhead.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

    draft 2015 PNA for consultation Hartlepool Health and Wellbeing Board Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment Version control HWB Version Date of this version Hartlepool Consultation draft F2 28.10.14 Final publication date: by 1st April 2015 (Statutory) Latest date of publication of subsequent full review 1st April 2018 (Statutory; unless superseded) Page 1 of 159 draft PNA Hartlepool 2015 draft 2015 PNA for consultation Welcome and Introduction Pharmacies have a major role to play in improving the health and wellbeing and reducing health inequalities among the population of Hartlepool as outlined in the Hartlepool Health and Wellbeing Strategy. Pharmacies are a key partner in plans to address the prevention of ill health which can only be achieved through integrated working. Pharmacies are often placed in the very heart of communities close to where Hartlepool people live, work and shop, and provide easy access to services. Pharmacies increasingly support people in making healthier lifestyle choices and advise on and provide a range of treatments as well as signposting to other services. This Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment provides the opportunity for a basis on which NHS England decisions on the location and shape of local pharmaceutical services can be made. It outlines the varying needs of our population across Hartlepool both in terms of pharmacy services currently available and considering needs for the future. This draft made available for consultation is an important part of ensuring the PNA is developed through a wide consultation process with a range of professionals, service users and the public; to understand the views of stakeholders on the current availability and provision of pharmaceutical services locally and makes recommendations to inform decision-making.
