Advent now means an opportunity for chocolate makers to sell more, and for children to count the number of chocs, and sleepovers, to the day when the big prezzies arrive. All well and good, except I can hear the mumblings of dentists and obesity experts. And there are sure to be some parents going into financial meltdown again in an effort to give their children the perfect Christmas. So I’d like to recapture something of what Advent is all about. It’s preparing for the coming of the Christ-child, and preparing also for that Second Coming when that Christ-child shall be revealed as Lord of heaven and earth, to right all wrongs. In essence then, for us is a period of reflection, and putting our house in order. A bit more to it than chocolates, then! And a way to make Advent significant in our communities which might appeal to you is to sign up to the Advent Challenge. The Bible Society’s online Advent calendar challenges you to do a small, practical act of kindness every day, to share goodwill and make a difference in the season of Advent. Last year, over 13,000 people took part, with over 105,000 challenges accepted. Whether it was the 4,000 people who actively encouraged someone, or the 3,000 contributions to local foodbanks, a massive difference was made. So this year, smile at a stranger in the street, buy someone some flowers, or cook a meal for someone in need… and make someone’s day. The challenge will email you three daily challenges every day throughout Advent and you choose the one that best suits you. The challenges are simple, practical, Bible-based and life-affirming. So you can show your community what true hope, love, joy and peace look like, even in the mad dash towards Christmas. You can sign up to take part in this year’s #AdventChallenge by logging in or registering via the Bible Society’s website. Make a difference- to more than your child’s tastebuds! And yes, I have signed up! Have a good Advent, and a very happy Christmas to follow it. Your vicar

Karen and Angela run the Youth Club with a few helpers, if you would like to help either weekly or on stand-by when we don’t have enough adults, please contact Karen on 01423 358979 or Angela on 01423 358067. Thank you. Tockwith Church on the web www.tockwithchurch.co.uk Let us know the things you would like on the site. Email [email protected] or telephone 01423 358588

DONATE A BIBLE We have a scheme that allows families to donate a Bible to the Church dedicated to their children to recognize the date of their Baptisms. We would like to extend the scheme to anyone who might wish to donate a Bible and dedicate it in memory of a loved one. If anyone would like to dedicate a Bible they are £15 each and we put the name inside the Bible cover. Please contact Angela Jenkins on 01423 358067

Did you know that Tockwith Church has a Facebook page? It is an excellent way to keep in touch with the local community regarding what is happening in church. It’s a great way to keep in touch with busy mums and dads and remind them of events that are coming to church. We pop lots of photos on of various events at church.

VOLUNTEERS Volunteers are not paid, not because they are worthless but because they are priceless. The smooth running of your church is reliant on volunteers in various areas from church cleaning, grass cutting, duties during services and helping out at various fund raising activities, we are always on the lookout for helpers. If you think you can help then please contact one of the church wardens – Angela or Deryck. MARSTON MOOR WALKERS The weather was as good as we had a right to expect as five of us mustered by the lonely church at Moor Monkton; it wasn’t raining. We turned onto a footpath just before the church and tramped with increasingly heavy feet across a clarty field then turned left to find a track which brought us to the eastern end of Moor Monkton village. Thence we progressed into Red House Wood which is an impressive size and contains some fine pine and larch trees. These were a good subject for our photographers in the low November light. The Marston Moor Walkers have visited Red House Chapel before, but it is a fascinating destination for a ramble. We became so engrossed in examining the various historical features of the place that it was past late afternoon by the time we emerged into what was left of the daylight. The rest of the walk was rather hurried as we marched back along the River Ouse banking, catching sight of a noble heron gliding over the water. Beningborough and Beningborough Hall were almost within touching distance across the river, presenting a tantalising challenge for a future expedition. We gained the great confluence of Nidd and Ouse, always a surprise to those who have never seen it before, then walked past some unique caravans back to Moor Monkton. We quickly decided to stick to tarmac rather than return by the muddy option and regained our cars just as the last vestiges of light were extinguished from the air. 5.3 miles. (Perhaps it would be wiser to park in the village if you want to try the walk at this time of year.) Another Christmas walk is planned for the 12th December (the second Monday of the month). We are going to explore some of the ginnels, snickets and alleys of then go for a Christmas drink and something to eat. A bus leaves the Spotted Ox at 13:30 and gets to York Piccadilly at 2.05pm. There are buses back at 16:20; 17:20 and 18:35. Park and Ride from the new Poppleton Bar terminus is an alternative if you prefer. If you are already in York on the day and want to join in make sure you are at Piccadilly bus stop for 14:05. All welcome. Please come along.

First and foremost, I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. At this time of year, I would particularly like to acknowledge those in my constituency who work in our public services and those who volunteer, as well as those who act as carers and do so much unrewarded work for our society. As always, I am happy to hear from constituents who would like to raise any issues with me and I will always try assist in any way I can. I hope everyone has a great time over Christmas and a happy and prosperous 2017.

Tockwith C.E. Primary School

At the end of November Years 3 & 4 had an outdoor workshop showing them how people lived in the Stone Age. They built a fire and made their own bread. Year 3 were particularly pleased of the fire as they were outside in the snow.

Parent consultation evenings were held on 28th and 29th November. It was lovely to see so many people in school.

We also took part in the annual ‘Children in Need’ day event on Friday 18th November, which explains why you may have seen some spots before your eyes! Our Year 6 children as ever organised some fabulous events.

November and December are very busy months in school, with many events taking place.

The School and Christmas tree will be decorated on the 1st of December.

Our Christmas lunch for staff and pupils will be on Wednesday 7th December and the school Nativity will be taking place on Thursday 8th December at 2pm and 6pm at the church. All are welcome to attend for either of these performances.

The school will be visiting Harrogate Theatre on Friday 9th December to see Dick Whittington.

The PTFA will be hosting a Santa’s grotto and Christmas Fair on Wednesday14th December this will run after school and include Carols around the Christmas tree.

The Christmas Concert will take place on Tuesday 13th December at 2.00pm in the school hall.

All the classes will be having their own Christmas party at school, where they will play games, dress up in their party clothes and have lots to eat!!

School closes on Friday 16th December and reopens for the Spring term on Wednesday 4 January 2017.

York/Wetherby

We support both York and Wetherby Food Banks. Any surplus food is passed on to other Food Banks in less fortunate locations. There are concerns that rural residents may not realize that they are just as eligible for aid. Where appropriate, please spread the word. Basic toiletries (soap, toothpaste, deodorants, hair shampoo etc), are just as necessary for healthy living as food. To quote a volunteer: ‘a client recently could not afford to buy any toilet rolls for her family’. All donations are very gratefully received. Thank you. Barbara and Peter Harris

Featuring GOOSEMOOR NATURE RESERVE Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better. Albert Einstein

On Tuesday 1st November a team of our volunteers travelled to Foxglove Covert Nature Reserve in Catterick Camp to dig up and bring back, to our own Goosemoor Nature Reserve, some trees which they have donated. It was a beautiful sunny day and we were greeted with a warm welcome by their extremely helpful and knowledgeable volunteers.

In the morning our initial team of Martin Perrett, Mona Horstead, Roger and Jacqui Marsden worked with the Foxglove volunteers to dig up the saplings, transport them back to the centre where they were labelled and counted. In excess of 150 trees of various stages of growth including the willow and birch in this picture were gathered. Additionally there was holly, willow, some alder, rowan, oak and hazel.

Time for a picnic lunch before our transport team of Mick Gee and Jim Maclachlan arrived and team working again got underway as we planted some trees in containers in the van and loaded up the rest. All ready to drive back in convoy to Goosemoor where the trees were unloaded and watered ready for replanting..... another day! Fingers crossed that they will thrive in their new home. A big thank you to Foxglove Covert for their help and support and of course to the team of volunteers who went to Foxglove and all who are working hard to make Goosemoor Reserve a special place for the whole community. If you are interested in volunteering email to:[email protected] or visit Goosemoor Nature reserve on Facebook.

Report from the Annual General Meeting

2016 was another great year for the Show. Record gate fees, near record a�endance and record number of posi�ve comments from people who were there. We appreciate that the weather might have had something to do with it!

To be able to put on a show of such size or quality we rely on so many people to financially support us, or give us their �me or give us goods and services either free or at a reduced price. To all such people we give our wholehearted thanks. Your support is much appreciated and you will not be surprised to hear that we will be approaching you for the same support for next year’s show! Without such support we would struggle to con�nue with the high standard of this and previous years shows.

During the year we have con�nued to improve our facili�es and have spent money on the storage shed and on providing addi�onal pens for sheep and pigs and crowd barriers along with the replacement of a number of minor items. Such capital expenditure is essen�al and we have an extensive list of future projects we would like to undertake. To do this we need to make a profit as well as keeping solvent to cover the cost of cancelling the show at short no�ce because of the weather and its effect on the showground. The Directors have again been considering the entrance price for the 2017 show and this will be discussed with the Commi�ee in the near future.

Our thanks go to Sarah Burckhardt for her support as President for the last 12 months and especially for the fund raising events she has Re�ring President Sarah Burckhardt hands over organized for her nominated chari�es. the shepherds crook, the symbol of office to 2017 We welcome Richard Search as our President Richard Search. forthcoming President. Richard has been a good supporter of the show for a number of years and has served us well in the provision of toilet facili�es on show day. dǁŽŽĨŽƵƌŝƌĞĐƚŽƌƐĂƌĞƌĞƚŝƌŝŶŐƚŚŝƐLJĞĂƌ͕^ĂůůLJŶŶĞ,ĂŶŶŝŶŐƚŽŶĂŶĚŽďůůŝƐ͘tĞƚŚĂŶŬ ƚŚĞŵĨŽƌƚŚĞŝƌŚƵŐĞĐŽŶƚƌŝďƵƚŝŽŶƐƚŽƚŚĞ^ŽĐŝĞƚLJĂŶĚƉůĞĂƐĞĚƚŽĂŶŶŽƵŶĐĞƚŚĂƚƚŚĞLJǁŝůů ďŽƚŚƌĞŵĂŝŶďĞŝŶŐŝŶǀŽůǀĞĚĂƐŽŵŵŝƚƚĞĞŵĞŵďĞƌƐ͘  dŽƐƵŵƵƉϮϬϭϲŚĂƐďĞĞŶĂŐŽŽĚLJĞĂƌĨŽƌƚŚĞ^ŚŽǁ͘tĞŚŽƉĞƚŚĂƚϮϬϭϳǁŝůůďĞĞǀĞŶďĞƚƚĞƌ͘  ^ĂŵůĂĐŬĞƌĂŶĚDŝŬĞdŚĂŵ

Soupachefs Cookery Club is going full steam ahead into the Christmas Season with plenty of seasonal food and tasty treats being made on the run up to Christmas with our Classes every Tuesday and Wednesday at Tockwith School and we are all looking forward to the first of our Holiday Clubs which is being held in the Christmas Holidays. Christmas music , edible glitter, and delicious smells will be guaranteed !

Over the last few weeks we have learnt how to peel, spread, whisk, zest and mash and have used a wide variety of ingredients during each class to make both sweet and savoury meals to take home. I continue to be delighted at the super effort and bags of enthusiasm all of the young chefs bring each week.

Booking are now being taken for 2017 for Years 1-6 at Tockwith School and can me made at [email protected]

Wishing everyone at Healthy and Happy Christmas

Making light work of training

Let there be light! Nights of training in the semi-darkness during the winter months will soon be over for hundreds of footballers using the sportsfield at Tockwith.

Thanks to £4,170 from the Locality Budget of North county councillor John Savage, four new floodlight poles are to be installed on the grass area to boost the output of the three already there and bring light to the gloom.

Locality Budgets are a two-year pilot scheme which allows the 72 county councillors to respond to local needs and requests by recommending funding of up to £5,000 for each of the two years to support projects or activities that benefit the communities they represent.

Tockwith sportsfield hosts two football clubs - Tockwith AFC has two teams and Tockwith Juniors FC has about 250 four to 19-year-olds spread over 15 squads. Training and matches take place on Saturdays and Sundays.

MARSTON MOOR PROBUS CLUB

At their meeting on Tuesday 25th October 2016 Mr Roger Lee introduced Mr Geoff Craggs who returned to the Club as the speaker and this time to talk about the History of Radio. He explained that the first telephone/telegraph cable across the Atlantic was laid in 1858 and was working properly by the beginning of the 20th Century between London and the US. Meanwhile Marconi developed radio for sending messages by Morse code. In 1906 the first voice/music transmissions happened and then with the invention of the diode and triode valves radio developed and this accelerated in the First World War. In the 1920s amateur radio clubs sprang up and this lead to the Post Office being charged with regulating wavelengths. Mr Craggs then described the role of many companies in the development and marketing of radio mentioning many unknown as well as remembered ones such as Marconi, HMV, Pye, EKCO, Ferranti, Murphy and the Dutch company, Philips who then went on acquire many of the companies and owned 50% of British radio by the 1970s. The glory days of the British Radio Industry was really 1930 to 1939.

The Club normally meets on the morning of the last Tuesday of the month in Long Marston Village Hall, which has a good car park. New members and guests are welcome, contact the Secretary, Mr Bob Ellis on 01423 358 393. (An exception is the December meeting at the Bridge Inn on 13th December).

For many parents, the birth of a child is a deeply spiritual event. The Church recognises this, and provides a Service of Thanksgiving for the Birth of a Child for those who would prefer this to a ‘christening’ (now more commonly called ‘Baptism’). It includes prayers for the child and family, and a recognition of all the hopes invested in the child, and is a great way to start a little life.

Please contact your churchwardens for more details, or contact the vicar, Rev.Roy Shaw 01423 359003 or via [email protected]

R oy (the vicar)

Tickets for York Minster The parish has an allocated number of free passes to York Minster for the use of parishioners. They may be borrowed for a day, and then returned to your local church. Details from the church secretary, or one of the churchwarden  For many, Christmas is a difficult time….. ….if it’s the anniversary of a significant loss, or reminds folk of happy times gone forever, or brings back painful memories. And yet, with most people looking forward to a ‘Merry Christmas’ it’s hard to acknowledge, ‘I don’t belong in all this merriment’. We are holding a special service for those who find Christmas difficult; there will be space for reflection, opportunity to remember and pray, and bring your pain to God. And a gentle message of hope. This service will be at All Saints, Rufforth, on Saturday December 10th at 4 pm. You will be very welcome, and you may want to encourage others to come as well.

TOCKWITH SINGERS

The Tockwith Singers meet in the village hall every Tuesday evening during school term time from 7.30pm until 9.30pm. We sing a wide range of popular songs from the 50’s right up to latest releases and seasonal songs to suit the time of year. We have a lot of fun trying new songs and choosing our favourites to perform. This Christmas we will be performing at four care homes in the area, including; St. Joseph’s (29th Nov.), Ashfield House (30th Nov.), Manor House (7th Dec.) and Oaklands (13th Dec.)

If you would like to join our happy group please phone Fiona on 01423 358 808, or just turn up. We would love to see you. Just £2 per week (first week free).

Wishing you a Very Happy Christmas from the Tockwith Singers.

Jottings from the Methodists …… &ƌŽŵdŚĞDĞƚŚŽĚŝƐƚDĂŶƐĞ  Just a few days before writing this a friend and I enjoyed together a cup of coffee, (and ok yes I admit it a rather nice Danish pastry too) at a lovely hotel on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. However as we drove into the car park we were surprised by the number of cars there and going into the hotel we soon discovered that although it was only mid November it was a special “ tinsel and turkey” weekend. Christmas 2016 had started - The tinsel and the glitter, the excitement of giving and receiving gifts, the wonder of the festive lights, the celebration food, the pleasure of family. I love it all, but each year it seems to start earlier and earlier and it’s important to hold in balance the superficial sparkle with the deeper reason for our festivities.

Although we do not know the exact details of Christ’s birth, and the records we do have are merged with the many traditions that have developed, there is still no doubt that Jesus was actually born. God came to earth, not as a visitor immune from the misfortune of the world, but as an ordinary baby, nourished by all that gives life and threatened by all that endangers life. The Christmas story certainly is a bitter sweet tale and for one reason or another some of us will find this Christmas a bitter sweet experience. Celebrations of joy will be intermingled with memories of past Christmases and maybe with pain or loss. This is the way life is and that’s why our Christmas services in the Church allow for deep reflection as well as joyful celebration. In the words of a well known carol, the story of Christmas is both comfort and joy and this means that beneath the tinsel and glitter of Christmas we are united in the deeper things of life.

Friends I pray you may know God’s blessings this special season. Happy Christmas to you all. G a i l 

Archdeaconry of York Prayer

Generous God, you look upon us with love and mercy.

Build up your people in this Archdeaconry of York, we pray, and make your churches places of generosity and welcome, that we might nurture disciples of your Son.

May we seek to work as partners in mission, desiring the guidance and strength of the Holy Spirit, as we live out your Gospel in our parishes.

This we ask in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen
