34 7 A Letter from our Vicar
Dear All, J. H. LEVISON B.V.Sc. (Hons), M.R.C.V.S. Another month has passed and things are beginning to change, all be it slowly. I don’t VETERINARY SURGEON know about you, but I for one haven’t been shopping for non- essentials….to be honest I’m not keen, maybe a music or bookshop a little time down the line, when I can have a PROPER browse and I could be persuaded. WINTER SWAN
We have been able to stream services from Winterton All Saints for the last month or so, and I think we are getting a bit better at it. I have to admit seeing myself and VETERINARY CENTRE others on screen is a slightly odd experience, and I have to be aware of fidgeting! 7 HIGH STREET, WINTERTON DN15 9PU Hopefully these services are helpful to you and it is likely that even when we are allowed back for public worship, we will continue to record and stream, as I Telephone: (01724) 735003 Fax: (01724) 734703 appreciate not everyone will feel ready to return to church at the same time. Appointment times: By the time you read this we will be partially opening All Saints Winterton for private prayer, but with strict safety regulations in force and of course social distancing. And Monday - Friday 9.00 - 10.30 a.m. for the moment, just for Wednesday pms between 2 and 4. I have just returned from the first opening and was pleased to get some visitors. May I suggest that you check Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday 5.00 - 6.30 p.m. on the website, just in case something has cropped up and we can’t actually get someone to open up. Saturday 9.00 - 10.30 a.m.
I hope to see a few more of you around in the near future and hope you are all keeping Open for Sales and Advice well. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday 9 a.m. - 6.30 p.m. 24 hour emergency service - Home Visits

8 33 Saying goodbye to good friends
Methodist members Freda Hobbs, Gladys Credland and Barbara LeBlanc have gone to be with the Lord in recent weeks, and we remember them with affection and thank God for all they have meant to us. Family funerals have taken place and it is the intention that a Thanksgiving service for each will be held as soon as it is okay for people to gather. We hold their families in our prayers.

Winterton Disabled Club We are still keeping in touch regularly with our members via phone calls to prevent loneliness during this enforced isolation and they are still provided with fish and chips every 2 weeks to make up for the absence of regular meetings.
The Coop staff continue to ensure that our orders are dealt with promptly. We will continue putting orders in for as long as necessary. It will be some time before we can safely and realistically restart meetings, assisted shopping and other trips.
We should be celebrating the Club's 29th Birthday on 7th July. Sadly this year we are unable to be together to do this but NOTHING is going to stop us marking the occasion. One 2 One Members will be sent plated party food instead and we will have a double celebration next year! Property Services I offer a large range of services including: Nicki Mumby Chair Window repairs Christian Aid Week Thankyou to all who contributed to the online fundraiser for Christian Aid Week in Plumbing May. £1063 was raised which was more than 2019’s House to House Collection. This will go towards Christian Aid’s work in developing countries, particularly to Joinery help to combat Coronavirus where medical facilities are poor. We hope to have further fundraisers later in the year. However, the need is both Fencing great and urgent, and you can give now by going online to christianaid.org.uk or posting a cheque payable to ‘Christian Aid’ and send to PO Box 100 London SE1 Tiling 7RT. Thankyou again. Call me, Peter Holliday, on 07804332185 Mike Joyce
9 32 Rev Helen moves on
Readers of the last Magazine will have read that Helen is moving on from Winterton to a stationing in the West Midlands after 5 years with us.
Helen’s work among us has challenged us to consider our relationship with God in Jesus, and to understand that He is close at hand if we choose to ‘tune in’ and listen. And more; to become the people He planned that we should be, to know and do His will. Encouraging study of the Bible, and helping us ‘dig deep’ has been a key part of Helen’s ministry. Weeknight meetings have been particularly valuable, since having care of 6 churches meant that she could not often be with us on Sundays. Primary school children will always remember Helen’s lively assemblies with Charlie, and at Chapel the youngsters always looked forward to her coming to lead worship.
Thankyou Helen for your ministry here amongst us, and we wish you well in the move and pray for you as God leads you on to serve Him in the years to come.

30 11 Poirier Foundation Wordsearch Answers
Life is still extremely busy here. Despite some relaxation of lockdown we still need to keep in touch with members to ensure that everyone is OK and that shopping orders are met in good time. Thank you to all our volunteers for their continued commitment. More problems/extra demands are coming our way. People who were on the clinically vulnerable lists were receiving Government boxes weekly. Some either got a phone call or nothing at all and deliveries have been stopped without notice. Customers at the Coop are still leaving items in our collecting bin. Thank you to all for their support and generosity. Councillor Paul McCartan also keeps in touch with redirecting donations of goods. He has also informed us that Winterton Town Council has agreed to donate £500 to The Poirier Foundation so we can continue helping Winterton residents. Matt Hammond from Winterton Running Club has set up a facebook page https://www.facebook.com/donate/366682580972107/366682604305438/ to support us. Matt says: " Plans are in place to run this years Winterton show 10 mile race as a virtual race, basically you have between Monday 28th June and Sunday 5th July to run a 10 mile time trial and submit your time. The race is open to all local runners and past / present competitors, We will have spot prices and results will be published. There is No fee for the virtual race but if you would like to make a Crossword Answers voluntary donation to this years race charity it will be appreciated." An application to the Neighbourly Community Fund resulted in an award of £400 being made. As part of the acceptance process we had to register The Poirier Foundation on https://www.neighbourly.com/projects?q=The%20Poirier%20Foundation We have also registered The Poirier Foundation on Give as you Live.

28 13 Reopening of church buildings for public worship Following the Government announcement that church buildings will be able to reopen for public worship from 4th July, providing physical distancing remains in place, the Bishop of London, Sarah Mullally, who leads the Church of England’s Recovery Group, said: "I welcome the Prime Minister’s announcement today that we will soon be able to begin to meet and worship together in our church buildings again. The last three months have been an extraordinary time - the first period without public worship and the sacraments in England in more than 800 years. There will be real joy as we begin to come together again – if even at a physical distance – but I also know that many will be understandably cautious at this news. We will not be returning to normality overnight - this is the next step on a journey. We’ve been planning carefully, making detailed advice available for parishes to enable them to prepare to hold services when it is safe and practical to do so. It is important to say that the change in Government guidance is permissive, not prescriptive.
I would particularly like to thank clergy and lay leaders for all they have done during the time our buildings have been closed. Not all church buildings will be ready to hold regular services from July 4th, but we are providing whatever support we can to enable them. There will still be restrictions and we must all still do everything we can to limit the spread of the virus to protect each other, especially the most vulnerable. The online services and dial-in worship offerings we have become used to will continue. This has been an incredibly difficult time for the whole country, especially for those who have been ill, who have suffered financial hardship, the loss of livelihoods and indeed, for many, those they love. We know that is not over and the Church has a task ahead to bring consolation and hope. Churches and cathedrals have risen to the recent challenges, finding new ways of meeting for worship, of serving our neighbours, and of reaching new people with the love of God. The challenge before us now is to take the next steps carefully and safely, without forgetting all that we e discovered about God and ourselves on the way.” Detailed advice for parishes will be updated, as necessary, in the coming days to reflect the detail of the Government guidance once published. Weddings will be able to resume, along with other services. The Church of England Recovery Group will also issue advice on subjects including singing and music for which a review by Public Health England is currently in progress. The Winterton Group of churches will await this further guidance before making any decision. For All Saints at Winterton details will be placed on the churchyard noticeboard.
14 27 Winterton Virtual Open Gardens Weekend Sadly a decision to cancel the ‘real’ event was made early on in the 'lockdown' when it became clear that planning could not take place and there was no guarantee that it could be safely held under social distancing and other guidelines. Each year it has been held it has created significant interest and it has also contributed much badly needed funding to All Saints' Church in Winterton. In its place All Saints has arranged a Winterton Virtual Open Gardens Weekend on 18-19th July, 2020. It will be an online collection of photos and short videos of gardens in Winterton. Any Winterton resident is encouraged to submit images/videos which can cover a range of ideas. There will be a link to the All Saints online fundraising page so that those who view the site online will have the opportunity to make donations if they wish. Those who submit images/videos are asked to email family and friends to view the site when it is online that weekend. You are invited to submit images/videos. Please upload images/photos to www.wintertonopengardens.co.uk before July 14th. Click login on the top menu bar then select register. This is also the link to send to those who wish to see the final ‘show’ over the weekend 18-19 July. Things you need to know about the images/videos required [any questions call 734285]: 1. They must be taken in a garden/allotment or of a houseplant/window box in Winterton. 2. They may be taken at any time of the year. 3. They may show your favourite view [part of the garden, a close-up of a favourite plant or an aspect of wildlife in the garden] or anything which sparks your interest and gives you joy. 4. Short videos [ideally no more than 60 seconds] might show a walk in your garden or you carrying out gardening tasks. 5. Other ideas are possible such as before and after photos showing changes you have made to the garden or time-lapse images showing a blossom opening. Give your imagination free rein! 6. Each image/video to have your name and a title. If possible add a short sentence or two to indicate what is special/joyful about each image/video. We want to share happy thoughts as widely as we can! 7. Upload your entry before July 14th, 2020 so that there is time to create the site online. Details of special Facebook page later. 8. All Saints will retain final editorial control of which images are placed on its web pages. 9. Contact your family and friends and ask them to view the site on 18-19 July. If possible ask them to offer online donations to All Saints at Winterton as the real fundraising Open Gardens event had to be cancelled. 10. There is a page on the All Saints' Church website for all the details above and any later changes at http://lincoln.ourchurchweb.org.uk/winterton/whats-on/virtual-open-gardens/

19 22 The story from our parish magazine archive: 'The next window was presented by the late Mrs Sadler many years ago in memory of her husband. The three compartments represent three incidents taken from the Parable of the Good Samaritan, which speak for themselves. The arms below the transom are those of the Sadler family.' The window was designed by Messrs Clayton & Bell of London, a highly successful firm who made excellent designs. There is much detail about the company at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clayton_and_Bell Chancel East Window [image opposite] The East window behind the high altar in the Chancel was installed in 1913 by C.E. Kempe and Co. Ltd. The window was donated by Canon JT Fowler who lived at 'The Chains' in West Street. There is a very small inscription written in Latin on the lower right hand glass panel which states ‘Ex dono ITF AD mcmiii’which translates as 'Donated by JTF 1913'. Canon Fowler wrote in the parish magazine about the biblical stories shown in several of the windows. For the East window he wrote: 'The subject represented in this window is the Dream of Jesse, in which he is imagined as foreseeing in one of his posterity the promised Messiah. The usual mode of treatment is to represent Jesse asleep, with his more prominent descendants on branches of a vine issuing from beside him, and with the Blessed Virgin and her Divine Infant at the top. This design is called the Tree of Jesse, and for many hundreds of years, and all over Europe, has been a very favourite subject for painted glass, sculpture, etc. The east windows of Selby Abbey Church and of Carlisle Cathedral are well known ancient examples, and, being of very great size, they include a very great number of figures and kindred subjects. Still the general idea is the same in all, and in our new east window at Winterton, Mr Tower, the successor of Mr Kemp, has carried it out in that beautiful design and colouring for which Mr Kemp was so long celebrated. In the lower part of the central compartment Jesse appears as asleep, and with the text "Jesse begat David the King." Over him is David with his ten-stringed harp and a book open with the words from Psalm 89, verse 27, "He shall call me, Thou art my
