Usually we think of bluebells at Ascension and Whitsun but this year it was bluebells for Easter. Ascension is one of the important days of the Christian year along with Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost (Whitsun). We usually celebrate Ascension, which always takes place on a Thursday, with a Benefice Service at St James, Chilton Cantelo. This year Bishop Peter Hancock, the Bishop of Bath and Wells, suddenly announced that he was coming to our Deanery - we are in the Deanery of Yeovil - and do a Confirmation Service on Ascension Day. As visits of the bishop of the Diocese and services of confirmation are very rare, it seems fitting that this year we join with the Deanery in going to St John's Yeovil. Making this service even more special, as confirmation candidates are even more rare here, is that we have someone from Chilton wishing to be confirmed. Less and less people seem to wish to be involved with belonging to a church these days. I officiate at a lot of funerals. Some baptisms and weddings take place at Mudford, usually as there is a family connection to the church. It is rare that the people live there. Very occasionally there are baptisms/christenings and weddings in the other churches of the Benefice. So what is a Confirmation? At Christenings and baptisms, it is usually a baby who is being baptised. The promises are made by the parents and godparents on behalf of the child. It is hoped that when the child or adult wishes to make those promises for themselves, that they are Confirmed by a bishop making the same promises and affirmation of beliefs for themselves. Then they can receive the bread and wine at Communion services that Jesus asked us to remember him by. In years gone by, as in Medieval times, visits of Bishops were even more rare than they are today, and adults would receive communion without being confirmed and would be confirmed when the bishop came to their part of the world. In more modern times, the Church of England has adopted a similar practice to the Roman Catholic Church, with something called the Admission of the Baptised to Communion. These would be children, who have been baptised and used to coming to church with their parents, who would do a short course suitable for them and be able to take communion. A little bit like the first communion of the Roman Church. Confirmation coming later as a confirmation of their beliefs. In my youth, when lots more people were confirmed, the bishop would come to the parish church in which the candidates lived. I still remember my confirmation in the small parish church in the outskirts of Portsmouth, where my mother's family had worshipped for years. I have no certificate to prove it, but still have the little book given to me by the vicar and signed by the bishop, still sometimes used. We had a lunch to raise funds for the Red Cross disaster Relief following the Cyclone in Mozambique. We raised £302.00 Revd. Barbara 01935 850745 CHURCH OF ST.

As I write this we are still in lockdown – but the youngsters are back at school – and other restrictions are about to be lifted in stages. Happily though the winter seems to be drawing to a close, the days are lengthening, and the air is getting warmer, and the daffodils and other spring flowers are bursting out all around our garden. The final sign for me is that the clocks are altered in a few days, and the evenings become longer. I wonder what the season of Easter traditionally means to each of you – chocolate Easter eggs and rabbits perhaps, even an Easter egg hunt? Big family gatherings over a long holiday weekend? Or maybe the culmination of the six weeks of Lent and Holy Week, finishing on Good Friday, with the crucifixion of Jesus on a cross, then his resurrection on Easter morning to the delight and amazement of his disciples.

  • Dedicattons of Tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©Ometsetsftire. “L
    DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.
