That said I’ve been in this post long enough to know better than to tempt fate – as they used to say in South Africa, “Don’t go looking for the sun – it will find you!”, so too I think the same applies to the busy-ness of parish life. While much of May might be an oasis of calm, we begin and end with important moments in our church life.

It was an interesting afternoon of shared conversations about how we might grow in confidence to share our Jesus story. Bishop Peter told us of a comment made by the Archbishop of York at a recent Synod. “In Yorkshire the biggest topic of conversation is the weather. Where I come from (Uganda) there is no weather! If we spoke as much about Jesus as we do about the weather the whole county would be converted! Jesus is more important than the weather!” While it raised a few laughs, one has to admit he has a point.

It is inevitable when we have an ‘early’ Easter celebration, but we have much still to cover before we reach the end of March and that great festival. We have the Women’s World Day of Prayer (4th March), Mothering Sunday (6th March), Palm Sunday (20th March), Holy Week and finally Easter Day (27th March). Add to that our weekly Lent discussion groups, and the month looks a busy one.

  • Flora of Somerset
    A SUPPLEMENT TO THE FLORA OF SOMERSET EDWARD SHEARBURN MARSHALL, M.A., F.L.S. RECTOR OF WEST MONKTON. Uaunton : PUBLISHED BY THE SOMERSETSHIRE ARCH^OLOGICAL AND NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY. 1914 ; PREFACE. In these pages I have tried to record the various additions or corrections since the pubHcation of Mr. Murray's book ; which, though dated 1896, was not (I beheve) issued until early in the following year. There is a certain fitness in my continuing his work ; for we were intimate friends from the autumn of 1882 until his death, and I had a small share in his Somerset explorations : he was also my first real helper in the study of critical plants. I have generally followed the London Catalogue names and standard of species, which is somewhat more liberal than that of Fl. Som. ; Mr. Murray was accustomed to deal with larger areas, and his point of view was synthetical, rather than analytical. Researches have been carried on for many years in the north-west ; the results are embodied in Mr. J. W. White's Flora of Bristol, in my opinion quite the best and most thorough book of its kind, which appeared in 1912. He has most generously allowed me to make full use of it and—as the reader cannot fail to see—it has been my mainstay. Our friend Dr. C. E. Moss has written an important plant-associations work on the of the county ; and I wish to thank my numerous correspondents for their cordial help. The time has not yet come for a new edition of the Somerset Flora, ; several districts stiU need much closer investigation, and my own scanty leisure is so much occupied by other matters that I have been un- iv ablo to (lovoto a great deal of it to local excursions.
