  • Reading Blue Coat School
    BLHA Newsletter Chairman's Corner This will be the first Newsletter edited by John Chapman. I know he has many good ideas for its future, and would like to wish him well. As a well-known military historian, his servi- ces must be in great demand at present, so taking on this task cannot have been easy. Members of the committee are particularly keen to let the member societies know what the Association is doing, and what it can do for them. We want the Newsletter to be read as widely as possible by members of member societies. And we would like to hear what the societies are doing. There are around 40 of them, but we only hear regularly from about a dozen in the Newsletter. A recent change in the committee has been brought about by Elias Kupfermann volunteering his services. He is well-known in Windsor, Maidenhead and Slough as a local historian, and I would like to welcome him. There are a number of jobs which need to be done, and I hope he soon finds his niche, and can be formally elected at the next A.G.M. Incidentally, I notice that the Constitution of the Association says that the officers and committee members should “normally” retire after five years. To my surprise, I find that I was first elected in 2009, so I’ve already done my five years! And as for most of the rest of the committee . It needs thinking about. I was pleased to be invited to present the Berkshire History Prize this year: please see the short report and photograph later in this issue.

  • Beenham Woolhampton Midgham
    July 2019 Beenham Midgham Woolhampton Aldermaston and Woolhampton Benefice There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:Ecc.3:1 Dear Friends By the time you read this, most of you will already know that my ministry will be continuing in another place and that my final service amongst you will be on 7 July, 5.30, at St Mary’s, Beenham. If it’s not too short notice and you are free, it would be lovely to see you there! My association with this benefice pre-dates its coming together in 2005; as far back as the early 90s I started attending the Aldermaston, Brimpton and Wasing churches so my young daughter could attend Sunday School. In the way of churches, I was soon on the Aldermaston PCC as Treasurer and in the York Nativity Play as First Maid! Despite living in Baughurst, I always felt part of the Aldermaston community, made good friends and attended many events, both in the village and connected with church. Over the years, I came to feel that I wanted to serve God in additional ways, but nothing seemed clear. Revd Des Foote, who arrived following the formation of this new, improved benefice, asked if I would consider Authorisation to Preach in 2008. However, not content with that, he later asked if I thought God wanted me to investigate a call to Ordination. As I’ve said previously, there didn’t seem to be a good reason to say No! I then embarked on the most amazing period of my life which culminated in being Ordained for Local Ministry in 2015 and a new role amongst you.
