Magazine: 50P Each Or £5 Per Year PAGE 2 CAVERSWALL, DILHORNE & WESTON COYNEY POST Magazine: 50p each or £5 per year PAGE 2 CAVERSWALL, DILHORNE & WESTON COYNEY POST Coffee Carrots & eggs A chef helped his daughter to APRIL understand the significance of Sunday 3 April Jesus’ death and resurrection by 2nd Sunday of Easter boiling carrots, eggs and ground Exodus 14.10-31; 15.20-21 coffee beans in three saucepans. Each had faced the same adver- John 20.19-31 sity, boiling water, but each reacted differently. Sunday 10 April rd The carrots went in strong and unrelenting but 3 Sunday of Easter after being in the water became softened and Zephaniah 3.14-20 weak. The eggs had been fragile, their thin outer John 21.1-19 shells had protected their liquid interior, but after Sunday 17 April being in the boiling water became hardened. th However, the coffee beans were unique because 4 Sunday of Easter after they were in the boiling water they changed Genesis 7.1-5,11-18; 8.6-18; 9.8-13 the water to become coffee. John 10.22-30 Sunday 24 April He asked his daughter, “When difficulties come in 5th Sunday of Easter your life, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, Genesis 22.1-18 an egg or a coffee bean?” John 13.31-35 Suffering on the cross did not harden Jesus to Sunday 1 May selfish behaviour but he could forgive those who 6th Sunday of Easter caused him pain. He said, “Father forgive them, Acts 16.9-15 for they know not what they do.” He could think John 5.1-9 of his mother’s needs, asking John to take care of her. It did not weaken him in that he could not carry out the Father’s will in dying for the sins of MAY the whole world, and being victorious. Even the Sunday 8 May Roman centurion was changed by him, and said 7th Sunday of Easter “Truly this man was the Son of God”. The hard- Acts 16.16-34 ened criminal next to him was changed. John 17.20-26 “Remember me when you come into your king- dom”, to which Jesus replied, “Today you will be Sunday 15 May with me in Paradise.” Pentecost Romans 8.14-17 Jesus in the Resurrection was like a coffee bean, John 14.8-27 because he not only overcome death for himself, Sunday 22 May but the Resurrection of Jesus for Christians who Trinity Sunday believe and trust in him has changed everything, the way we live and the way we die, and that Romans 5.1-5 death can never be the end because we live John 16.12-15 eternally with Christ.

As a former student myself, I am conscious just how much the House has changed through the years to meet the changing demands of ministry and mission in the Church of England, elsewhere in the Anglican Communion and in the developing ecumenical partnerships which the Federation embodies. We have been at the forefront in the deliberations which have led to the introduction of the Common Awards.

CHARLES COX (by Canon Maudce Abbott, Ince Blundell Hall, Back O'Th Town Lane, Liverpool, L38 5JL) First impressions stay with us, they say; and ever since my school days when my parents took me with them on their frequent visits to old churches, I have maintained a constant interest in them. This became a lifelong pursuit on my 20th birthday, when my father gave me a copy of The Parish Churches ot' England by J. Charles Cox and Charles Bradley Ford. In his preface, written in March 1935, Mr Ford pointed out that Dr Cox's English Parish Church was lirsl published in 1914, and was the recognised handbook on its subiect. In time the book became out of print and it was felt that a revised edition would be appropriate, because Cox was somewhat discutsive in his writrng. The text was pruned and space made for the inclusion of a chapter on'Local Varieties in Design'. This was based on Cox's original notes on the subject and other sources. I found this book quite fascinating and as the years went by I began to purchase second-hand copies of Cox's works and eventually wanted to know more about the man himself.

  • Holy Communion from the Reserved Sacrament
    29 November 2018 To all lay and ordained ministers holding the Bishop’s Licence or Permission to Officiate in the Diocese of Lichfield Holy Communion from the Reserved Sacrament Holy Communion is at the heart of our worshipping life together. It is an indispensable part of our Anglican worship, identity, and community. At the Communion table we are united as members in the Body of Christ. We are fed at Christ’s own table and sent out to be his body in a needy world. A regular pattern of receiving Holy Communion should, therefore, be part of the spiritual practice of all faithful Anglicans. However, we are aware that in some particular situations and churches a regular round of Holy Communion services is hard to maintain, usually due to a lack of availability of priests. The Church of England makes provision for this exceptional situation by providing a liturgy of Public Worship with Communion by Extension, which you can find online. This service assumes the existence of previously consecrated elements, which may then be distributed reverently and appropriately by authorised persons. We are writing this letter, and have written the attached guidelines, to make clear the circumstances under which you may use this liturgy in our Diocese, recognising also that some will not want to avail themselves of this for theological reasons. We hope that these guidelines are self- explanatory and that they will assist you to use this service appropriately as and where necessary. We would wish to draw out and highlight the following points: 1. This service is intended as a means of facilitating regular reception of Holy Communion.

The interest with which I have read his pages will I am sure be shared by all who have at heart the well-being of an Institution which occupies a unique place in English history, although happily there is not anything unique nowadays in the endeavour which the Magdalen Hospital makes in face of a gigantic evil. The story Mr. Compston tells gives abundant evidence of the change for the better in public opinion regarding this crying wrong and its remedy. It shows too the growth of a sounder judg- ment as to the methods of dealing with it. For every reason it is right that this book should have been written, and Mr.
