ST MICHAEL and ALL ANGELS, HAMSTALL RIDWARE July 25Th 2021 ST MICHAEL AND ALL ANGELS, HAMSTALL RIDWARE https://www.achurchnearyou.com/church/4451/ July 25th 2021 : TRINITY 8 PARISH NOTICES Service at Home reflection sheets are still being sent out because we know that a lot of people don’t yet feel safe in an environment with many other people. That is fine. There is no obligation to attend church in person until you feel safe. If you are on the mailing list for Sunday Service sheets, please print off and bring your own copy of the Readings sheet with you to services both at St Michael’s and the other churches in the United Benefice. Please remember that St Michael’s is still open every Sunday and Wednesday between 2 pm and 4.30 pm for individual prayer. Churchyard working parties are scheduled for the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month – the next one will be on July 27th . We meet at 6 pm and carry on for a couple of hours – weather permitting! All welcome. Food Bank. Please do remember the Food Banks. They are needed now more than ever. If you wish to donate directly to Rugeley Foodbank at Rugeley Community Centre the Centre is now only open for foodbank sessions i.e. 2.00 pm-4.00 pm Tuesdays and Fridays. Alternatively, the Rugeley Food Bank welcomes financial contributions – see https://rugeley.foodbank.org.uk Gifts can once again be brought to Church where they will be blessed before being distributed or they can be left in the porch at 17, Lichfield Road, Hamstall Ridware WS15 3QG.

Those who live and work in the Nursing, Care and Retirement homes in the villages both in and near the parishes of the United Benefice. For all of us as we move forward in the more relaxed regime of restrictions which came into effect on July 19th that everyone will be sensible and take care for themselves and others For everyone on holiday at this time that they may enjoy rest and relaxation in these difficult times For all those working in the NHS as they prepare for what is feared to be a difficult autumn and winter ahead For the Rev’d Jeremy as they enjoy a summer holiday that they may come back refreshed and ready for the next steps in their and our lives ******************* Since 1982, the Arthur Rank Centre at Stoneleigh has been providing training in mission, ministry and leadership for lay and ordained rural church leaders from across the denominational spectrum. Throughout the periods of lockdown it has been supplying useful material each week for payer and reflection. It is to be hoped that their optimism that now is the time to stop providing this as the COVID 19 restrictions are mostly lifted and we can mix much more freely both with fellow-Christians and others, is not misplaced. Prayer by Revd Suzan Williams, Head of Rural Ministries New Wine: I lay my head to rest, and in doing so, lay at your feet the faces I have seen, the voices I have heard, the words I have spoken, the hands I have shaken, the service I have given, the joys I have shared, the sorrows revealed, I lay them at your feet, and in doing so lay my head to rest. Amen Reflection on the experiences of the pandemic from Revd Dr Benjamin Aldous, Principal Officer for Mission and Evangelism, Churches Together in England …… What keeps coming back to me is the idea that the pandemic has been apocalyptic. It has revealed how things really are. Our vulnerability as human beings, our frailty and innate weaknesses. It has revealed the gross inequalities that exist around race, gender and economic parity. It has revealed who is most key to keep society going: not bankers and managers but hospital workers, those stocking supermarket shelves, those who empty our bins. It’s made us as the church ask some important questions about who we have been serving and who we should be serving. It is potentially the most important re-set since the Second World War. …….and from Revd Dr Mark Betson on reading Luke 7:18-23: One of the insights COVID-19 has brought to my reading of scripture is where the disciples of John ask Jesus ‘Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?’ Jesus does not say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ but asks them based on what they see, not what they think. Vaccinations are incredibly important in the fight against COVID but they are not simply the answer; it is our ongoing behaviour, particularly how we react to new freedoms while many remain vulnerable, that points towards salvation. ******************* Safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults. If you have any concerns please speak in complete confidence to the Parish Safeguarding Officer Dr Paul Carter 01889 504347 or the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser Mr Neil Spiring 01543 306030. 3 From the Lichfield Diocese Prayer Diary: In its prayer tour of the Diocese the compilers of the Prayer Diary are concentrating on the different Deaneries as they face the challenges of resources highlighted by Shaping for Mission and other aspects of life which affect them in particular. This week the focus is on the Wolverhampton Deanery and for Area Dean, Revd David Wright. From the weekly cycle of prayer, I have selected this date in particular: Friday 30th: (William Wilberforce, Social Reformer and Anti-Slavery Campaigner 1833) Pray for Debbie Huxton, a Modern Slavery Campaigner, employed by Transforming Communities Together and funded by Lichfield Diocese Mothers’ Union; encouraging churches across the Diocese to create communities that are safe for all and where everyone can thrive and flourish. ******************* 4 5 .

  • Advisory Visit River Blithe, Hamstall Ridware, Staffordshire Sutton Coldfield Angling Society 2Nd September, 2008
    Advisory Visit River Blithe, Hamstall Ridware, Staffordshire Sutton Coldfield Angling Society 2nd September, 2008 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust to the River Blithe, Staffordshire on 2nd September 2008. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Don Jones and Steve Russell of Sutton Coldfield Angling Society (SCAS). Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Fishery Overview The River Blithe rises to near Blythe Bridge near Stoke-on-Trent and flows in a south-easterly direction to join the River Trent at the hamlet of Nethertown. Near Abbots Bromley, the river flows into Blithfield reservoir (www.blithfieldeducationcentre.co.uk/reservoir.htm) operated by South Staffordshire Water. The reservoir was constructed in the early 1950s by the building of an impounding dam across the river. Flows in the Blithe downstream of the reservoir (where the SCAS water is located) rely on the release of compensation water from the reservoir at the rate of 23 Ml/d (0.27 m3 per second). SCAS have approximately 170 members, although most fish the club’s other waters leaving the Blithe very lightly fished; there are estimated to be only half a dozen trout fly fishermen in the club. SCAS operates the fishery as a mixed coarse and trout fishery, and allows any legal method of fishing that complies with Environment Agency bylaws.

  • Supplementary Report
    SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT PLANNING COMMITTEE (24 August 2020) OBSERVATIONS/REPRESENTATIONS RECEIVED SINCE COMPLETION OF REPORT Page 9 20/00332/FUL – Proposed Erection of a replacement dwelling. Spion Kop, Lichfield Road, Hopwas Additional Consultation responses Comments from Local Resident I am surprised that the plans are even up for review as their drive does not reach the required size limit according to the HM Government, The building Control Regulations 2020 volume 1, section B5 table 13.1 fire vehicle access minimum requirements. The Highways Agency only passed it conditionally, and their research was done on line, not actually on site, surely there should be an onsite survey done before the plans were up for final consideration. I am greatly concerned that if there is access problem for fire engine then sprinkler would possibly be needed. There is an issue if you check your archives, from the previous owners' applications, the fence between our two properties were removed to allow a fire engine to get closer, but not close enough for building regulations. Who decides whether they are prepared to sacrifice the loved ones or will it come back to yourself? You should recommend sprinkler not leave it to someone out to make a quick buck and who are prepared to kill someone. OFFICER COMMENTS Highway Authority confirmed that there was no objection to the application. The access is currently used by the applicant to access the existing dwelling on the site. This application is for a replacement dwelling on the site not a further dwelling. There is therefore no highway objections to this application.

  • Wills and Religious Change in the Archdeaconry of Stafford, 1532-1580
    WILLS AND RELIGIOUS CHANGE IN THE ARCHDEACONRY OF STAFFORD, 1532 - 1580 by JENNIFER DAVIES A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY Department of (Medieval) History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham February 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The entire complement of wills from the deanery of Leek probated between 1532 and 1580, about 1,300, have been examined to assess response of the testators to religious change through the first fifty years of the Reformation, by detailing the impact on their religious sentiments and bequests. While change in this backward agricultural community was late and driven from above, unexpectedly, once initiated, it took hold rapidly. It is suggested that this was due to the actions of the Protestant Bishop Thomas Bentham, anxious to mitigate fears voiced by critics of his weak implementation of government edicts in his diocese. He advanced change through monitoring and resolute control of his clergy. A transition from traditional religious sentiments is observed in the will-writing output of individual clergy: as priests appointed during earlier, Catholic regimes died or resigned, and they were replaced by men supporting the Elizabethan Settlement.
