And right across that love, across that life, insatiate It makes one hate the injustice of it all, war with blind stupidity has cut its way and those lads, mere schoolboys, radiant, torn them from their friends. A dozen years have full of hope, upon the threshold of the passed and to most here, the names are outer world, swept out of life, strange. killed on the battlefield. Soon it may be, the list no longer read, will rest, The solemn reading of their names, recalls a vellum roll, within a drawer, mute witness their faces as we knew them in the school, of their willing sacrifice. linked with some tone of glance, some incident of classroom, or the corps, But while the youthful figure, sword in hand, or cricket field.

Yet, whether slow or brilliant, each was loved, each of them lived within his mother’s heart, Armistice Day 1930 Headmaster Rushbrooke ‘Dulce de Decorum Est’ – Wilfred Owen. Bent double, like old beggars under sacks, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, Till on the haunting flares, we turned our backs, And towards our distant rest, began to trudge. Men marching asleep. Many had lost their boots, But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame, all blind; Drunk with fatigue, deaf even to the hoots Of gas-shells dropping softly behind. Gas! Gas! Quick, boys! – An ecstasy of fumbling, Fitting the clumsy helmets, just in time, But someone still was yelling out and stumbling And floundering like a man in fire or lime. – Dim through the misty panes and thick green light, As under a green sea, I saw him drowning. If in some smothering dreams, you too could pace Behind the wagon that we flung him in, And watch the white eyes writhing in his face, His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin; If you could hear at every jolt, the blood Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs Bitter a the cud Of vile incurable sores on innocent tongues, - My friend, you would not tell, with such high zest To children ardent for some desperate glory, The old lie: Dulce et decorum est Pro patria mortui.

  • Re Hither Green Cemetery [2018] ECC Swk 3
    Neutral Citation Number: [2018] ECC Swk 3 IN THE CONSISTORY COURT OF THE DIOCESE OF SOUTHWARK IN THE MATTER OF HITHER GREEN CEMETERY AND IN THE MATTER OF A PETITION BY MS JANINE HARDWICK JUDGMENT Introduction 1. This is the petition of Ms Janine Hardwick. It was filed some time ago and I regret the delay in dealing with it. What happened was that, having read the petition and supporting documentation, I considered that it might be appropriate for an appropriate person to see the Petitioner and discover whether she might be assisted by some pastoral support. The matter was complicated by the fact that Ms Hardwick does not live in the Diocese and, in the event, a visit did not happen. It is now clear that the moment when such a visit might have been of value has now passed. Ms Hardwick remains of a fixed resolve to pursue her petition, as is her right. The facts 2. The petition seeks a faculty to exhume the remains of Owen Stephen Flight from Plot CZ 1i in the consecrated part of Hither Green Cemetery. This is in order that his remains may be cremated and kept at home by Ms Hardwick. 3. The background to the petition is that Owen Flight was the son of Ms Hardwick and Stephen Flight. He died aged five as a result of a brain tumour in October 2011 and his remains were buried in the consecrated part of Hither Green Cemetery. At a time of profound grief, Ms Hardwick and Mr Flight did not themselves make the arrangements for the burial.

However, it is also a city well-served by open spaces. There are numerous small parks which provide relief retreat from city life, while areas such as Richmond Park and Riverside, Hyde Park, Hampstead Heath, Epping Forest and Wimbledon Common are real recreational treasures. Although not so obviously popular, many of our cemeteries and churchyards provide a much overlooked such amenity. Many of those established in Victorian times were designed to be used as places of recreation by the public as well as places of burial. Many are still in use and remain beautiful and interesting places for quiet walks. Some, on ceasing active use for burials, have been developed as wildlife sanctuaries and community parks. As is the case with parklands, there are some especially splendid cemeteries in the capital which stand out from the rest. I would personally recommend the City of London, Islington and St.

Have we merely acquired some information about the biblical readings, about our religious ancestors in Israel, about the ministry of Jesus and the life of the early Church? Or have our eyes really been opened; have we been enabled to leave behind whatever prevents us from living the Christian life fully, to abandon our exile or the trappings of our former lives? Have we accepted more genuinely the Christian responsibilities that are ours as baptized followers of Christ – in our own personal lives, in our families, in our relationships with others, at the workplace? To what degree have we been transformed into Christ? How open have we become to the action of the Spirit in our lives? Have we been transformed into a new creation? And do we recognize Christ in our midst? General Notices Welcome to any new Parishioners: A warm welcome to you! Please introduce yourself to others and to the priest at the end of holy mass.
