Thehillnovember2019 2 The Wayside Cross The photograph on the front cover is “circa 1920” and the oldest we have of the war memorial erected in 1919. The Church Magazine reported the occasion as follows: “Dedication of the Cross On Thursday, Nov. 6th, the Bishop of Salisbury dedicated the Wayside Cross which is the War Memorial for Child Okeford and Hanford. The weather was not all that could be desired, but there was no rain during the service which was at 2-30. There was a crowded congregation, many people being unable to find seats. The Bishop gave a most inspiring address, after which he proceeded to dedicate the West Window which has been given in memory of Lieutenant Raymond Bower by his parents. At the Cross the prayers were read by Archdeacon Ward, the Bishop pronounced the dedication and benediction. The National Anthem was sung and the service ended with a roll of drums and the sounding the Last Post and Reveille, the former at the Cross and the latter at the West Door of the church. The ringers immediately started a peal and a most impressive service was over. We owe a great deal to the choir and all those kind friends who helped to make the service a success. Mr. Bevis had taken infinite pains to think out what would be suitable and spared no trouble to carry out every detail perfectly. The ringers were most effective, especially in the muffled peal before the service. Mr. Albert Harvey most kindly came to help his old parish and brought 2 drummers who gave their services as did also the 2 N.C.O.s from the Dorchester Depot. Many wreaths of flowers and laurel leaves were placed on the steps of the Cross.” The following three pages detail the Service of Dedication.

I have turned the central heating on and lit the first open fire of the season in our new home. I have been searching out my ‘cold weather slippers’ amongst our packing boxes. I found a SatNav, a sink drainer and various mismatched shoes in one box! As my thoughts turn to winter I am reminded that we are approaching our Remembrance Sunday (10th November) church services in our benefice. I come from a family in which my Father and each of my Uncles served in the armed forces. Remembrance Day was a time for memories and of quiet reflection. I recall that the silence at 11am was strictly upheld by all of the family. Prior to Ordination I was a Pastoral Support Manager in a secondary academy that held an annual Remembrance service. The Remembrance service was a time for pastoral care as students and staff chatted to the veterans who attended. There was always a great amount of respect for those who had fought in theatres of war all across the world. In the same attitude of respect and thanks we will be honouring and remembering those who have fought in the many arenas of war during our church services and commemorations across the benefice. Pastoral care is hugely important to me now, as it was then. When I left my job to move to Dorset my colleagues held a party and parents and ex students visited with a large card. As I read the messages none of them said, “I appreciated the organisational dynamics you introduced,” or “The new pastoral programme was great and meant a lot to me.” It’s not that these are unimportant, but they are not remembered for significantly impacting their lives. Instead what I read was something like, “ you gave me a cup of tea and sat with me when I was in trouble” and “I remember when you came to the police station in the middle of the night in your dressing gown to help me”. I need to be honest here and didn’t arrive at the police station at midnight in the best frame of mind! Pastoral care can be a tough ask at times. As an Ordained Priest the type of pastoral care I now offer has changed from that at a school. I am glad I can be of some help and offer up the situation to God. Often, I will go away as the person who was blessed because I witnessed somebody’s enduring faith. The Salisbury Diocese has been exploring the issues of hidden loneliness and social isolation in rural communities. The care of others is not just a task that is given to Priests and the church but is a shared one. I recently met with a local parish councillor who has been tasked with looking at the issues faced by those who live alone. Those who live in our villages can be the eyes and ears of the benefice and have a vital role to play in highlighting where pastoral needs may lie. The shorter days and longer dark evenings are a time when we need our eyes and ears open for those who are on their own and may appreciate a visit. Since I have advertised that I will be donning my apron, hosting and cooking a Sunday roast (on Sunday 12th January at the Shillingstone Church Centre at 2pm) I have had offers of help from people in the benefice which has been really encouraging and very helpful - pastoral care in action! The two course Sunday roast, followed by tea and coffee is for those who would otherwise eat alone or not cook themselves a roast dinner. Please contact me on 01258 861051 to book a place at £6.00 per person. My husband unofficially calls this new benefice initiative as ‘A roast with the Revd’! Jesus calls us to look after each other, to care for one another and to seek out those who are vulnerable and uphold each other. Christ tells us that we are all brothers and sisters, part of one big family. 9 When I reflect upon pastoral care I am reminded of the old saying, “people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” Revd Karen 10 DO YOU ENJOY A GOOD TRADITIONAL SUNDAY ROAST DINNER? Do you usually eat alone on a Sunday? If so, I have the answer! From 12th January (and from then on once a month) I will be a hosting a home cooked Sunday roast lunch at the Shillingstone Church Centre at 2pm A two course Sunday roast will be served with tea and coffee afterwards.

It may seem odd that the stone and slated one in the centre is not also thatched. This is because in about 1800 the former cottages were burnt down and were rebuilt except for the centre one which was constructed in the late 1840s, it is said, from stone and slates left over after the church was rebuilt.
