Kirkby Lonsdale Speaks Monthly news and views from the Church and the Community. A Rainbow Parish production by the Church of England in the Lune Valley Around Kirkby Lonsdale Kirkby Lonsdale December 2015/January 2016 speaks out Around 80 people attended the November ‘think tank’ meeting at the Lunesdale Hall when the future of the town was explored. Those present were divided into smaller groups and encouraged to discuss various general areas rang- ing from heritage and the town’s appearance through to em- ployment, tourism, and facilities for young people and older people. Chaired by Jim Walker, a former SLDC officer with an interest in tourism and a working knowledge of South Lake- land, and co-hosted by the Town Council, the Chamber of Trade and the Community Interest Company, the meeting proved lively and productive.

The Production Team – Bob Cater and Anne Deebank – hope you find something of interest in this first, bumper Edition. As this is the first edition we would also be interested in your views – have we got the content right? Have you any suggestions for articles? Are you reading this in a tower which isn’t your own and you haven’t got one at your home tower? Let us know! The next edition will come out in the Spring, immediately after the AGM on 5 May. Please let either of us have copy by 15 April 2007. Bob Cater [email protected] Anne Deebank [email protected] President’s Message I am writing this newsletter introduction after spending an enjoyable day listening to two excellent peals rung at two of West Yorkshire’s best light sixes. (Clue 1 – both towers begin with an S. Clue 2 – I could have walked from one tower to the other along the Leeds-Liverpool canal.) Whilst listening to the ringing I got to thinking about why people ring bells and why they might attend Association events at both branch and full association level. When I was younger I attended Association meetings to have the opportunity to ring on new and different bells (and to get a tick in Dove!) and also to ring new and different methods that I did not have the chance to ring on a normal practice night.

Executive summary HLF’s Strategic Framework The strategy document presented to respondents of this consultation suggested that HLF consolidate its three strategic aims of ‘conservation’, ‘participation’ and ‘learning’ into a single aim: Making a positive and lasting difference for heritage and people. This was met with majority agreement with almost seven in ten saying they tend to or strongly agree with the proposal. Those who were more hesitant suggested that the single aim needs to be clarified further and guidance on its interpretation should be provided when putting in bids for funding to avoid any misinterpretation or difficulties. HLF’s proposal to target more funds to identified strategic needs was met with a mixed reaction, just over a third agreed, just over two in five disagreed and a fifth were neutral. Advocates felt that this approach encourages change and flexibility, especially in challenging financial times. Those neutral or in opposition to the proposal of targeting funds expressed concerns over the potential impact this would have on the ability for smaller bidders to obtain funding.

  • Our Church Ethos the Parish Spans a Mix of Social Groups So There Is Wide Range of Opportunities to Reach Into People’S Lives with the Good News of God’S Love
    Our Church Ethos The parish spans a mix of social groups so there is wide range of opportunities to reach into people’s lives with the good news of God’s love. We live with this variety and it has informed our ‘ethos’ as we approach ministry and mission. Our mission statement is ‘Becoming Jesus Shaped People’ expressing our desire to become more Christ like individually and as a body of people while at the same time wel- coming and encouraging others to join us in that journey. Jesus Shaped People is a ‘whole church dis- cipleship adventure’ for churches that want to make Jesus’ ministry the key model for their mission vi- sion and development. It offers both a VISION and a METHOD to churches that enables them to do this. Further information can be found at https://www.jesusshapedpeople.net/ The theology which underpins our way of working is expressed in our PCC opening prayer God of Mission, Who alone brings growth to your Church, Send your Holy Spirit to give Vision to our planning, Wisdom to our actions, And power to our witness. Help our church to grow in numbers, In spiritual commitment to you, And in service to our local community, Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. We want to warmly welcome people to our caring and friendly congregations which worship in two well cared for church buildings - one new and one traditional. We meet people where they are and seek to help them to journey with us closer to God, at their own pace, all of us learning and growing more Jesus shaped in the process.

  • Letter from the Vicar INDESCRIBABLE I Make No Apologies for This Times
    Letter from the Vicar INDESCRIBABLE I make no apologies for this times article being based on Louie Giglio's talk on DVD of the same name, Indescribable. If you've not seen the film it really is worth watching. I've based this article on the first half of his talk only, not wanting to spoil the second half for those who haven't seen it. You just have to go outside on a clear evening (I know they are rare in Thornton but there have been some beautiful nights recently) and to look up to the sky to see the glory of the God we serve. When we look up we see the evidence that speaks of HIS glory. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. (Psalm 19) We have an amazing God who spoke words and creation happened, all that we see! In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (Genesis 1) And we don't know just how big the universe is, every time we build a bigger and more powerful telescopes we discover more and more. The universe is just vast, beyond our comprehension. When God created the universe the first thing he said was 'let there be light'. Now light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Just so you can get a picture of that, it would take a beam of light just one second to circle the earth seven times - and this light came from God, he spoke and it happened. By the word of the LORD were the heavens made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
