They are the opening and closing words of Psalm 118; so yes, this means that I have just completed the first version of the sermon for Palm Sunday, but I am aware that when you read this, Easter will be over. But is that the way to put it? To tell you the truth, this is one of my fears - that after the Lent time preparing to celebrate Easter, then it will be over until next year. What a frustration that would be, a frustration even for God (if you allow me the metaphor). Did all that we undertook during Lent mean that the Bank Holiday in April brought the closure of Easter? There is a poem by a very famous Spanish poet that says “The rich return to their riches; the poor to their poverty and the priest to the mass”. A cynical vision some would say, but is it? During our preparation for Easter we studied the report of the Public Issues Committee, “The lies we tell our - selves” and considered the role of media and our preconceptions and under - standings about poverty, and tried to read through the lies that are before us. Now that Easter is finished, will we come back to these issues? The good thing is that towards the end of the month we will celebrate the closing of the Lent Studies at an evening service at Christ Church, but the issues will not be ended...sadly they will continue for quite a time yet. But it is up to us to remember, it is up to us to keep the truth of God alive and share it, and challenge the reality that surrounds us with a different vision. This different vision is the Easter vision, one we just cannot let drop off our radar. Easter has not finished, the hope proclaimed in the Resurrection is the hope we live by each day, it is the hope that will question our preconceptions, our prejudice, our ways...and will lead us on the way Jesus prepared for us. Only this way can we truly proclaim Jesus to be the way we want to follow, the truth we are called to share and the life which is life for all. May the power of the loving Spirit of God keep the Easter message alive in all of us, now and forever. God bless you and keep you in such a promise, and in such a hope. 1 FAMILY EVENTS BAPTISMS We welcome into the family of the Church CHRIST CHURCH Mar 30 Annabelle Margaret Gatherum MARRIAGE We wish joy and happiness to CHRIST CHURCH Mar 15 Craig Maddock and Melanie Court Jamie Hall and Kimberley Gray Apr 5 James Egerton and Hannah Lane RENEWAL OF VOWS Mar 29 Bruce and Judy Young DEATHS We extend our sympathy to the loved ones of: BATH ROAD Mar 17 Clifford Cardis, 86 years CHRIST CHURCH Mar 10 Raymond Buckland, 89 years Mar 10 Philip Winterborne, 82 years Mar 11 Dennis Reynolds, 91 years Mar 21 Eileen Trickett, 93 years Apr 2 José Lace, 84 years Apr 3 Audrey Goodenough, 91 years Apr 4 Irene Fisher, 57 years 2 Sunday 4th May to Saturday 31st May at Bath Road Methodist Church FM LAME H OF F LAUNC 0 pm For one month ay, 3.0 4th M hurch only, don’t miss it! unday odist C S d Meth th Roa n us! at Ba and joi Come Friday 16th May, 7.00 pm - FLAME GRILLED at Bath Road Methodist Church Question Time Style debate with Rob Buckland MP, Angus MacPherson, Police and Crime Commissioner, Mark Dempsey, Labour, Stan Pajak, Liberal Democrat and Christine Froude, Archdeacon of Malmesbury and Acting Archdeacon of Bristol.

He will be singing the services in Wells Cathedral from the 4th to the 10th of August. Visitors are of course welcome at these services. Bath Road Choir is very pleased and proud of Charles’ achievement and also very grateful to him for sharing his musical gifts with us week by week. We are especially thankful for the extra time he has given to teach us ‘Olivet to Calvary’. J.R. 170% rise in numbers turning to foodbanks in last 12 months Trussell Trust foodbanks have seen the biggest rise in numbers given emergency food since the charity began in 2000. Almost 350,000 people have received at least three days emergency food from Trussell Trust foodbanks during the last 12 months, nearly 100,000 more than anticipated and close to triple the number helped in 2011-12. There is probably a myriad of reasons for the increased use of foodbanks, eg the credit crunch, resulting in government cutbacks and stagnant wages, large increases in food and energy costs and the complicated state benefit system. At Bath Road Methodist Church the congregation is pleased to support the Swindon Foodbank. However, after discussions in our housegroup, we have decided go further by writing to our local MP, Robert Buckland to ask him to: 1) Consider why foodbank use is increasing. 2) Encourage the Government to set up a review into spiralling food costs. 3) Ensure the welfare state is the last line of defence against hunger. 4) Persuade all those entitled to claim state benefit. 5) Challenge HMRC to tackle tax fraud robustly. If you feel motivated to act, please consider contacting your MP. Both, Robert Buckland, Swindon South, and Justin Tomlinson, Swindon North, can be contacted at either 1 Milton Road, Swindon, SN1 5JE or the House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA 5 VISIT OF THE REVD. AVA BERRY It seems hard to believe that it was over 19 years ago that the Revd. Ava Berry came over from Texas for a year, as part of her ministerial training and to help bridge the gap of 2 years between the sad death in post of our Revd. John Ducker and the arrival of the Revd. Tony Barnes. Ava’s time was memorable for us all. Very short, at just under a year, but very sweet and a time of spiritual growth for us all, including Ava, who returned home to become Texas’s first female Minister in Throckmorton. Some of us stayed in touch with Ava over the years and she is now retired and living in Washington State, close by her children Robie and Beth and grand - child Lily.

  • Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549
    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

  • Saints and Sinners: Lessons About Work from Daytime TV
    Saints and sinners: lessons about work from daytime TV First draft article by Ursula Huws for International Journal of Media and Cultural Politics Introduction This article looks at the messages given by factual TV programmes to audiences about work, and, in particular, the models of working behaviour that have been presented to them during the period following the 2007‐8 financial crisis. It focuses particularly, but not exclusively, on daytime TV, which has an audience made up disproportionately of people who have low incomes and are poorly educated: an audience that, it can be argued, is not only more likely than average to be dependent on welfare benefits and vulnerable to their withdrawal but also more likely to be coerced into entering low‐paid insecure and casual employment. It argues that the messages cumulatively given by ‘factual’ TV, including reality TV programmes ostensibly produced for entertainment as well as documentaries, combine to produce a particular neoliberal model of the deserving worker (counterposed to the undeserving ‘scrounger’ or ‘slacker’) highly suited to the atomised and precarious labour markets of a globalised economy. This is, however, a model in which there are considerable tensions between different forms of desired behaviour: on the one hand, a requirement for intense, individualised and ruthless competitiveness and, on the other, a requirement for unquestioning and self‐sacrificing loyalty and commitment to the employer and the customer. These apparently contradictory values are, however, synthesised in a rejection, often amounting to demonisation, of collective values of fairness, entitlement and solidarity. The context Despite the explosive growth of the internet and multiplication of devices for accessing it, television remains the main means by which most people absorb narrative information.
