The whole of this year has been beset by uncertainty and restrictions: We have needed to stay at home and adapt our behaviour around other people. We have had to change plans and cancel visits and travel. We have not been able to meet with people we normally anticipate seeing regularly. We even had to close our churches. The uncertainty extends into December. The lockdown is due to end on 2nd December but there is a concern it may extend further. I’ll admit that planning for Christmas in the Parish of Great Yarmouth is fraught with hesitation and a need for an “either or” approach. There will be plenty happening and we are resolved to offer plenty of options for people to have opportunity to reflect and worship in this season. Lockdown is tough but it need not be all negative. Some people have embraced the gift of time they have received without travel to and from work. Some have grasped the opportunity to learn new skills. Some have found that they are more adept at using technology than they imagined (and I include many clergy in this bracket). Globally and nationally we have noted the benefits of less travel and burning of fossil fuels and in many larger cities, streets have been reclaimed by pedestrians and cyclists. There is good to be found, even in the gloom. God is with us in the midst of uncertainty. The heart of Christmas is a story which is full of uncertainty and people who are feeling more than a bit wobbly. There is a young woman lurching down the road to Bethlehem wondering where she will have her baby. There is a young man who travels with the woman wondering what is happening in his life. There are shepherds who are terrified at an angelic apparition and then feel compelled to ditch the flock and run to Bethlehem. There are wise men whose hearts God stirred who journey across the expanse of the Middle East but don’t know exactly where they are going. If you’re feeling a bit uncertain, maybe you will be able to identify with someone in the Christmas story. It looks as though there is plenty of choice. Underneath the uncertainty is the wonder of a God who loves us and will not let us go: a God whose plan is sure and true and will go to great lengths to reveal that wonder to us. I wish you every blessing and peace through December and pray we may use the days of Advent to prepare our hearts for the Mystery of Christmas.

The Patron Saint for November, St Catherine of Alexandria, lived in the 4th century, she was the daughter of the King of Cyprus. Legend records she met her death at the hand of Emperor Maxentius of Alexandria. After converting to Christianity she constantly refused to sacrifice to the Emperor’s gods and protested against the persecution of Christians by Maxentius. She was an intellectual and disputed successfully with philosophers who were instructed to convince her of the errors of Christianity. She was condemned to death by being bound to a spiked wheel. The wheel flew apart and injured many onlookers. Surviving this ordeal she was beheaded by a sword. St Catherine was a popular saint of the middle ages. There are 80 churches dedicated to her in England and the Village of St Catherine’s Avon shares her name. St Catherine is the Patron Saint of young girls, students, philosophers, the clergy and those who work the wheel, like wheelwrights, spinners and millers. St Catherine’s feast day is on 25 November, however, she is easily remembered on the 5 November when Catherine wheels (named after her) are set off. Before you Speak—Think T Is it true ? H Is it helpful? I Is it inspiring? N Is it necessary? K Is it kind? We will be celebrating Advent soon. With all the changes because of Covid-19 things and times are changing rapidly but we must remember the important things that don’t change and are our mainstay. Continued on page 7 6 Letter from Nancy Continued • What is coming? • What are we waiting for? On Advent Sunday we remember what it is about . Advent, it comes from the latin ’Adventus’ meaning coming. Of course we are waiting for Jesus arrival, not just a birth at Christmas, but also for when He comes again, and we must be ready. Advent is a season of hope in which we look forward to the last day when Christ shall come again “To establish His kingdom here on earth”. We see our Advent wreath with its candles and evergreen. • What is it about? • What does it mean? The wreath made of evergreen, arranged in a circle signifies continuous life and because it has no beginning and no end symbolises the eternity of God, the everlasting life in Christ. The four candles one for each week in Advent are said to represent the 4,000 years from Adam and Eve until the birth of our Saviour. In our changing world we most likely will not be in a church, as they won’t be open, but it’s good to remember what we should be sharing. Life is like a book, some chapters are sad, some are happy and some are exciting; but if you never turn the page you will never know what the next chapter holds. On 2 November, All Souls, we remember our departed loved ones. Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord, May light perpetual shine upon them, May they rest in peace and rise in glory, According to your promise, Grant us a share with them In your eternal Kingdom. Amen Until we communicate again, God Bless. Keep praying . We have to believe things will get better. All the best, live in hope Nancy 7 Heavens Above December 2020 Girls are capable of doing everything men are capable of doing. Sometimes they have more imagination than men. I counted everything. I counted the steps to the road, the steps up to church, the number of dishes and silverware I washed … anything that could be counted, I did. Everything was so new – the whole idea of going into space was new and daring. There were no textbooks, so we had to write them. Let me do it. You tell me when you want it and where you want it to land, and I’ll do it backwards and tell you when to take off. Katherine Johnson 1918 – 2020 Katherine Johnson was an inspirational mathematician and astronomer.

  • Bulletin 28.06.2020
    THE PARISH OF GREAT YARMOUTH Parish Office: GREAT YARMOUTH MINSTER, ST PAUL’S, ST MARY’S The Rectory, Town Wall Rd, Great SUNDAY 28th June 2020 3rd Sunday after Trinity Yarmouth, Norfolk, NR30 1DJ Tel: 01493 858410 There are no public services at the moment. Do make time for your own prayers. [email protected] Remember that although you may be isolated, no Christian is ever alone. www.gtyarmouthminster.org 3rd Sunday after Trinity In today's Gospel reading we hear about welcoming - that with every little welcoming act it is as if we are welcoming Jesus. We've recently been able to welcome visitors and pray-ers back into the Minster, we've welcomed people from around the world to worship with us online; in 'normal' times, we would be welcoming summer visitors to our services, but, of course, everything is a little bit different this year. This weekend would have been the second Great Yarmouth and Waveney Pride event, a chance to celebrate our community, and for those of us who are Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Trans, etc. to welcome the whole community to a celebration of living as one's authentic self. The Gt Yarmouth LGBTQ+ faith group 'Created' were involved last year, and there is usually a Christian/faith presence at Pride celebrations all around the world. People both inside and outside faith communities might find it surprising that those people of faith are involved in Pride, but it actually makes perfect sense. As the 'Created' group's name implies, these are people being fully who God created them to be; knowing that God loves them for who they are, not in spite of it; and wanting other people to know that they are fully known and loved too.

    2019 Impact Report 30th May – 9th June 2019 Thy Kingdom Come | Impact Report 2019 1 Trafalgar Square Beacon Event, London Headlines Thy Kingdom Come is a global, ecumenical prayer movement which takes place each year from Ascension to Pentecost. Christians are encouraged to pray for more people to come to faith during these 11 days of prayer. From Bangladesh to Brazil, Australia to Austria and South Africa to the Solomon Islands, more than 2 million Christians, across 65 different denominations and traditions, in 90% of countries worldwide have participated. In 2019 Thy Kingdom Come was endorsed by a range of high-profile leaders, including His Holiness Pope Francis. Her Majesty The Queen also commended Thy Kingdom Come in a speech! This year our app was downloaded thousands of times in almost 100 countries worldwide – more than twice as many as in 2018. In our annual feedback survey, we found that: • 92% of those taking part were praying for friends and family members to come to know Jesus – with nearly two thirds (62%) of this group planning to follow up or talk to the people they were praying for; • 70% of those who took part felt more encouraged to share their faith; • 40% of respondents took part for the first time this year – which shows this is still very much a growing movement; • 99% want to be involved again next year, the same figure as last year – demonstrating growth and value. “ And to you my brothers and sisters, with my brother Justin Welby, we want to tell you that we walk alongisde you in this prayer – Thy Kingdom Come.” -His Holiness, Pope Francis (*172 out of 195 countries.) 2 Thy Kingdom Come | Impact Report 2019 Thy Kingdom Come | Impact Report 2019 3 Prayer Journals, each organisation took part in their own From prayer stations to prayer walking, special joint Across England distinct way.
