Whether this is a hangover from my years in South Africa where there is very little difference in the length of the days and Christmas is in the heat of summer, or whether it is a childish excitement about the approach of Christmas, I don’t know. But I have to say that there is a part of me that quite looks forward to the clocks going back and the long, dark evenings. There is something quite special in being more in tune with the cycles of our planet. Being closer to the earth, as those in our farming communities know, gives us a sense of our interdependence with all of creation, and brings its own sense of holiness. Each season is different and special and somehow brings our faith and trust in God more into focus. The seasons of the Church tend to reflect the natural seasons of the year (at least they do here in the northern hemisphere), particularly Advent and Lent. Winter is a time of waiting, preparing the land to receive the new crops. Things that do grow throughout winter grow more slowly, seeds that fell in the late summer and autumn hibernate in the ground waiting for the warmth of the spring sunshine to awaken the life in them. Many animals do, too, slowing down their body clocks as they go to sleep for the winter. Advent is like that, a time of waiting and anticipation for the birth of Jesus and the celebrations of Christmas. Like the seeds in the dark earth, we await the light of Christ’s birth to awaken and renew the life in us. Advent is about beginnings, it’s the beginning of the Church year and looks forward to the beginning of a new heaven and new earth. As with all beginnings it is born out of the ending of something else, an old era giving way to a new one: the beginning of Christianity. Perhaps also reflected in our greeting the new year with a sense of hope and renewal. The light and joy of Christmas continues through the Epiphany season to the end of January when we have that marvellous celebration called Candlemas, the Presentation of Christ in the Temple. After their long journey the magi went first to Herod’s palace, expecting to find the new king in the splendour and majesty of the king’s residence. Yet, in the end the star led them to the humble stable where they found no crown, riches or splendour – no evidence of royalty at all. As they stood on the threshold of that humble stable they gazed in deep wonder at what they had found: heaven on earth, earth in heaven, humanity in God and God in humanity – one who the whole universe could not contain now enclosed in a little body. As they looked, they believed and did not question, as their symbolic gifts bear witness: incense for God, gold for a king, myrrh for one who is to die. 3 Like them, we too stand at the threshold, knowing full well what waits for us behind the door. We glimpse a reality that is endless, a mystery that we cannot define and we are called to respond by offering ourselves in love and service to this One who has given all for us. May God bless you in Advent, may the light and peace of the Christ child fill you at Christmas time and may the hope and wonder of the magi carry you through the new year. LPAs News It is the time of year when there are many events to think about , but I would like to encourage you to make a note of three which I can recommend in the next 2 months. Thursday November 30th at Orchard Park at 6.30pm there is an impressive Service when the Christmas Tree Lights are switched on. You can purchase a light to have on the tree to remember your loved ones who have died and the proceeds go to Joseph Weld Hospice who are so well worth supporting . Then on Sunday December 10th at 4.30pm there is the annual Team Christingle Service in aid of The Childrens Society, which is held at Motcombe this year. Do come along if you have not been to a Christingle before, and if you have you will want to come again! Thirdly do not forget the A.G.M.at St Peters on Wednesday January 24th starting with a Communion Service at 10.30am. Best Wishes to you all and enjoy any events in the Season of Christmas. Audrey Hooper A Message from Pam Rink Who is about to start a period of extended sick leave. Heartfelt thanks to all who have been so very supportive keeping me in prayer and for all the lovely cards I have received. The prayer support is wonderful, almost tangible in that it feels like being wrapped in a soft, warm blanket. I don’t intend to hibernate for the winter, like the animals mentioned in the leader article, so I’m sure that you will see me around in the next couple of months, although I won’t be taking any services. My prayers are with you all for this very busy season. I hope you have a very blessed, peace- ful and happy Christmas and send my very best wishes for the new year. I know that Pam will have the good wishes and prayers of every reader of Key Ring.

In addition to refreshments, the event included a raffle and stalls selling, gifts, cakes, craft work, books and DVDs. As a result £762 was raised which has been split equally between three British-based charities that are members of the Disasters Emergency Committee and are conspicuous for the work they carry out where disasters happen. Oxfam, Save the Children and British Red Cross have each been sent £254. Thanks to all those involved in organising and supporting this event which was also a happy social occasion, filling the church with friends and visitors. Gillingham Food Bank: behind the scenes The accelerated roll out of universal credit, including for Dorset in November, has generated increased media coverage of food banks. Thankfully, the Gillingham- based Trussell Trust food bank is well established. The demand upon it is consistent throughout the year. It also offers debt and heating advice as well as help with sorting out benefit payment delays. The food locally donated via Tesco in Shaftesbury, Waitrose and ASDA in Gillingham and other collection points is delivered to the food distribution centre.

  • Counting Down to Christmas
    COUNTING DOWN TO CHRISTMAS n SECuLAr CELEBrATIOnS OF THE SEASOn , counting down the days to Christmas builds children up for nothing more than a feast, a vacation from school, and a cache of presents under the tree. For adults, the countdown leads to a tremen - I dous sigh of relief. Indeed, one of the most common countdowns today is provided for us by merchants, who solemnly warn, “Only XX shopping days until Christmas.” But for Catholics the end of Advent is not the end of holiday chores nor is its climax the festive celebration. Instead, the days that pass bring us closer to the birth of our Salvation, the Christ Child, who is the greatest Christmas gift we could ever receive. In religious celebrations of Advent and Christmas, counting down provides us with an opportunity to slowly reflect on the mysteries and wonder of the season. There are many ways to do this. An Advent calendar focuses on the nativity of Our Lord and on the symbols of the birth; the Jesse Tree centers on the Lord’s lineage and on salvation history. An O Antiphon House (used only the last eight days of Advent) helps us to reflect on the attributes of Christ described in the beautiful titles given to Him in these prayers. We offer some suggestions here. THE ADVENT CALENDAR The Advent calendar or Adventhaus began in Scandinavia Advent Calendar House and Germany, especially in the regions of the Palatinate and You can make an Advent house from a sheet of construc - Hesse. Its purpose is to help instill in children the expectancy tion paper, with a piece of colored tissue attached to the back of Advent.

But wherever you are on this tilted, spinning globe as you read these words, each of us, the whole planet, we are all sitting close — waiting. Waiting for Christ’s coming. For this is the season of Advent, the four weeks before Christmas. The word, advent, it comes from a Latin word. And it means “coming.” Aren’t we, the whole of the globe, aren’t we waiting for the coming of Christ? For the God in the manger who makes Himself bread? The Saviour in swaddlings who makes Himself our robe of righteousness? The Christ who makes precisely what none of us can — Christmas. It is only Christ alone who can make Christmas. We are waiting for the glorious coming of Christ.

We are a bit concerned that people in the local community are not aware of the proposed changes to the status of the Westminster Memorial Hospital. This is our local community hospital serving Shaftesbury, Gillingham and the surrounding areas. It provides inpatient facilities providing rehabilitation and palliative care for local patients. There is a dedicated nursing and therapy team providing personalised care to sometimes the most vulnerable in our community. The clinical commissioning group are proposing the closure of these inpatient beds and the public need to be well informed.
