Bishop Burton News September 2016 BISHOP BURTON NEWS SEPTEMBER 2016 Jack Byass at Raikes Farm - 1922 Two Hundred And Eighty Third Edition Front Cover I found this photograph in the archives and written below it said J.B. 1922 Raikes Farm. I checked with the Byass family and indeed it is of Jack Byass, father, grandfather, and Great grandfather (depending on which generation you are) of the family that now farm at The Grange. All the farms belonged to Bishop Burton Estate in those days, so they were all tenant farmers until the estate was broken up in 1964, when they were able to buy their farms. Heavy horses were essential in each farm before mechanisation. They were needed for pulling machinery and fetching and carrying absolutely everything. Each farm needed quite extensive stables to accommodate them and man-power to groom, feed and water these gentle-giants. Jack Byass would be 23 years old when this photograph was taken. He used to 'show' heavy-horses at different horse shows. He and the two wonderful horses are all smartly turned out, obviously in preparation for a show, when this photograph was taken. Joan Pillmoor Firstly I would like to thank the late Events Committee for the donation they gave last month to the Bishop Burton News. This is greatly appreciated as last year we bought a printer which made a bit of a hole in our bank balance. However this printer makes life much easier for the News team as it prints on both sides of the paper and collates so all we have to do is staple, fold and bag up for our delivery team! We rely on the Parish Council for their grant which does not cover all our expenses so donations are always gratefully received. Our Treasurer is Margaret Oxtoby at Park End Farm, Finkle Street; cheques payable to Bishop Burton News. We are delighted to learn that Hilary Swann has not left us and has moved into a cottage in the village. Hilary has given great service to the village having served on the Parish Council for many years and also as Church Warden. The Swanns have a long history of residing in Bishop Burton. As one who delivers and posts more copies of the BB News than anyone else we too have a strong reason of not wanting her to leave us! Hilary, we send you our best wishes. Can we please have your articles for the November Edition before 23rd October 2016 – they will be gratefully received Editor Susan Leeding – 01964 551277 – [email protected] A MESSAGE FROM RUTH As I am writing this message the Rio Olympics are in full swing, so far we have one gold medal and we are 11th in the table. By the time you read this the event will be but a memory with most of our athletes having returned home and enjoying a well-earned rest before they start their gruelling training programme again. The Olympic Games took place in Greece every 4 years without interruption from 776BC to AD393 and the New Testament part of the Bible has many references where the writer uses the imagery of athletics to encourage Christians to keep on going with Jesus. Saint Paul encourages us to “Run in such a way that you may win it (the prize). Athletes exercise self-control in all things; they do it to receive a perishable garland, but we and imperishable one’. (1 Corinthians 9:24-25) He challenges us to follow his example – “forgetting what is behind and straining forwards to lies ahead, I press on towards the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus’. (Philippians 3:13-14) The writer of Hebrews urges “let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith”. (Hebrews 12:1-2) [2] The early Christians would have understood these athletic images and the writers used them in their teaching about how to think more about God. They are saying that when you see athletes run, think about another kind of running, running the Christian race with perseverance and effort. When you see athletes smiling with a gold medal, think about another kind of prize, the prize of heaven, of being in God’s perfect new world. And the big question for us to consider during the Olympics is this: are we living for Jesus with Olympic passion and perseverance? It’s been said that: “the determination of the athlete frequently puts to shame the half-hearted, casual nature of much Christian discipleship”. So if you’re a Christian reading this I hope that you will find time to think how you are running the Christian race. Perhaps plan to make time to read the Bible, to spend time with God in prayer, make time to reflect on the areas of life you need to change in order to be living more in line with the way being made in God’s image implies. If you’re not a Christian, can I encourage you to take time to find out more of the Christian faith? September 18th is national ‘Back to Church Sunday’, why not think about coming to the service at All Saints which starts and 11.00 a.m where you will find companionship and be able to ask about the claim of Jesus to be God himself, who came to earth and died for us. So I hope that you have enjoyed the Olympics and that you will also enjoy the Paralympics which start on September 7th and can I encourage you to begin or keep going on in the Christian race. Every blessing Ruth Newton Assistant Priest ALL SAINTS CHURCH Dear Friends, This year my husband and I spent our two week summer holiday taking our new touring caravan to Scotland, where we visited Aberdeen, Inverness and Glenrothes. We enjoyed the freedom of caravanning and the spacious, well-kept sites, and of course enjoyed discovering those places which were new to us. Everybody has asked us two things: weather and midges..?! Both not bad, thankfully. Whilst on holiday we made two sorts of journeys. The first was towing the caravan on unfamiliar roads and trusting the satnav to get us there – except when we’d been warned that the roads were too narrow for the caravan, then my husband had to trust me as map-reader! The second sort of journey was when we went on walks. Over half way along the walk on the cliff edge by the sea, as it started to drizzle, the path appeared to run out…the guide book just said that the path might appear to run out but stick close to the fence and all would be well! We are all on the journey of life and sometimes find ourselves going down unfamiliar paths, some that were unexpected but others that are unavoidable and maybe not welcome. Sometimes we find ourselves having to trust others to help us along – perhaps if we’re suddenly feeling vulnerable or facing something momentous. At other times it may not be obvious where we’re going and we need to follow something familiar to get us through. If we are people of faith in God, sometimes we realise that this gives us a sense of security despite being on an unknown path; although not necessarily – spiritual writers often speak of the discoveries made about oneself when experiencing an unwelcome sense of desertion. Wherever you have been this summer, may it have been a place of discovery, whether you were on a well-known or unexpected path in your journey of life. Especially if you have received good or challenging news that will affect your life choices or circumstances, may you know where to find guidance and reassurance from those you can trust to help you through. Best wishes, Rachel Young Service Times for September and October Date Time Service Sep 4th 11.00a.m Matins Sep 11th 11.00a.m BCP Holy Communion [3] Sep 18th 11.00a.m Back to Church Sunday Morning Prayer Sep 25th 11.00a.m Holy Communion Oct 2nd 11.00a.m Matins Oct 7th 7.30p.m. Harvest Festival Oct 9th 11.00a.m BCP Holy Communion Oct 16th 11.00a.m Morning Prayer Oct 23rd 11.00a.m Holy Communion Oct 30th 11.00a.m BCP Holy Communion Church Rota Date Cleaning Flowers Sep 4th Mrs S Brooks & Mrs J Biden Mrs J Oxtoby Sep 11th Miss HM Swann Miss HM Swann Sep 18th Mrs A Danforth Miss HM Swann Sep 25th Mrs H Hayward Miss HM Swann Oct 2nd Mrs M Wray Mrs EM Swann Oct 9th Mrs M Cutland Mrs EM Swann Oct 16th Mrs S Thomas Mrs EM Swann Oct 23rd Mrs S Brooks & Mrs J Biden Mrs S Thomas Oct 30th Miss HM Swann Mrs S Thomas Nov 6th Mrs A Danforth Mrs S Thomas FOASBB COMMUNICATION UPDATE Well, here we are again with an exciting update from the Friends of All Saints’ Bishop Burton. There has been a bit of peace and quiet since the barn dance, I think we all needed it! So, we have some pleasing news to report, we currently have almost 50 members. We are in the process of sending personalised thank you letters to you all. To date, from membership, donations and profit from the events held so far, we are very proud to announce that we have raised in excess of £5,000 towards the ‘kitchen and loo’ project.
