Berriew Parish Church Cleaning Rota for March BERRIEW NEWSLETTER NUMBER 346 MARCH 2017 IMPORTANT CHANGES TO THE NEWSLETTER We have been asked by a few people if the Newsletter could always be published before the beginning of the month it covers. The Newsletter was originally a Parish Newsletter and was therefore published on the first Sunday of the month, (and that is how it has stayed). However if that Sunday is for example the 5th or 6th of the month some events or notices that cover those first few days are being missed. So it was decided at the last Committee meeting that with effect from the April Newsletter we will publish on the last Friday of the month. The Newsletter will be available from lunchtime that day. The cut off date for each month will still be listed in the Editor's Postscript and in the diary of events, usually on the last page before the adverts. Help Needed We are also once again, becoming short of volunteers for collating and stapling the Newsletter and we are having to call on the same people every month. These few people are very generously giving their time to help – if they didn't there would be no Newsletter. We produce 700+ copies every month – very rarely are there any left at the end of the month – so the interest for it is there. We do not want to head back down the road of 2012 when there was a real possibility that the Newsletter would be closed down. But if we don't get the help needed there may be no option – this is a Community Newsletter. As you know we exist on donations only, so there is no way we can afford to have the Newsletter printed, collated and stapled by a printing company. The stapling and collating usually takes about an hour and a half from 9.30am on the last Friday of the month, at the Old School and we usually have 8 volunteers and four committee members each time. I know a lot of people are at work on a Friday morning so it has been suggested that we could swap to the day before on the Thursday evening at a time convenient to most people. The more names we can put on the rota the less often you will be called upon to help. So, if you are interested in helping please contact me either by telephone 01686 641875, by email: barrywallis246 @btinternet.com or by dropping your details into the Newsletter Post box in the Spar and I will get back to you. Lastly, we also have a couple of committee members who will soon be retiring from the committee and we need replacements. We need to get some younger people involved with the Newsletter to carry it on in years to come. We only usually have 2 meetings a year and one large fundraiser – so if you would be interested please contact me (as above). The Berriew Newsletter has grown over the years and is enjoyed by Locals and Visitors alike – lets keep it going!! Val Wallis/Editor BERRIEW NEWSLETTER Chairman/Editor: Val Wallis Items for publication may be left in the Newsletter post box, at the Spar, Berriew or e-mailed to the editor at: [email protected].

  • Pool Mission Area News
    Pool Mission Area News 8th Issue - December 2016 People news We are delighted to welcome Alexis Smith to the Mission Area. Alexis is serving as a Pioneer Minister working primarily in Llandyssil and Castle Caereinion but hopefully developing a model for rejuvenating small rural churches which can be developed for use elsewhere. This is a 3-year post funded by the Diocese. Sadly there were no applicants for the post of a ‘House for Duty’ priest based in the Border Bridges Group when it was advertised in the autumn. It will be re-advertised at some point in the New Year after we have become a Mission Area as that might allow us more flexibility in the way the job is configured. In the meantime the four full-time clergy in the MA will each provide pastoral care to one of the churches. Rev’d David Francis, is making steady progress recovering from the stroke he suffered earlier in the year whilst Rev’d Imogen Marsden, another of our retired clergy, is on the mend after knee surgery. Rev’d Bethan Scotford’s husband Ron, and Rev’d Hazel Stibbe’s husband Paul are both not at all well – please keep them in your prayers over Christmas. Mission Area Progress The date has been set for the Commissioning Service when we will formally become a MA. This will be on Sunday 12th March. The time & venue will be confirmed early in the New Year. If you would like to be involved in preparing the service and any other events for this day, please let me know.

Owned by the Woodland Trust and well worth a visit. The 2 main streams, Bele (Guilsfield) Brook and the Rhydymoch brook would have been attractive to early settlers. Earliest fragmentary records associate Guilsfield (Cegidfa-Welsh name) with Theonus a Bishop of St. Pauls (5th century) and later with Saint Tysilio. Aelhaiarn (to whom the Church is dedicated) was said to be a grandson of Cyndrwyn King of Pengwern/Powys. The Welsh equivalent name is Cegidfa, which as Kegitua is mentioned in the 12th century, and also is the name given in the Norwich Taxation St Aelhaiarn Church of 1254.

  • Pool Mission Area News
    Pool Mission Area News 4th Issue December 2015 Good ideas for Christmas 2016? If you’re thinking that maybe your church needs to do something a bit different next year to engage with more people in the community then you might like to talk to the parish of Forden about their ‘Christmas Tree Festival’ or to Berriew about 'Carol Cafe in the Old School'. Both events have already taken place very successfully and maybe they could work for your church too? The Berriew event was arranged by their young people and consisted of Carol singing and informal worship for Advent & Christmas with the hall arranged as a Café - with mince pies, biccies, and cakes. As well as being a lot of fun it enabled the young people to achieve their charity fund target for the year – Excellent job! Another idea with a difference, taking place at St Mary’s, Llanfair Caereinion, is a “Knitted Carols Exhibition”. You’re not too late to check that out as it’s on Saturday 12th & 19th Dec (10.30am- 3.30pm) and Sunday 13th & 20th Dec (1- 4pm). If you can’t go but want to know more contact Steph (811044) or Sheila (810742). A special service for people who will find Christmas difficult because they are separated from loved ones by geography, bereavement or family breakdown can be another really good way of ministering to people who are not very likely to come along to a regular Christmas service. St Mary’s Welshpool are joining with Welshpool Methodist Church for there’s on 15th Dec & Guilsfield have their Blue Christmas service on 21st Dec.
