I continue to buy the Church Times for similar reasons, although it is not the crosswords that attract me, but the monthly diary column of a former Rector of Hackney, John Pridmore, who has a wonderful gift of connecting the things of heaven with the things of the earth! However, at the beginning of May it was not the diary column that grabbed my attention but the obituary written for Canon Eric James, a priest who I came to admire deeply while I was a vicar in South London. I suspect that throughout our lives we come across people who walk a little way with us on our journey of faith and provide the necessary support and encouragement for us during that time so that we can continue our adventure with God. Eric was one such person. I had gone from leafy suburbia to be a Vicar in South London, in the heart of the Surrey Docks, with precious little experience of what it meant to live in the Inner City, let alone to be a priest in the ‘Inner City.’ Eric was born and brought up in Dagenham, and although he had spent time as a college chaplain in Cambridge his heart was with and for those who lived in the urban communities, most of whom had long been out of touch with the church. In this context he sought to live the Christian Gospel, experimenting with new forms of worship and group meetings in flats, and exercising his pastoral skills in ways long remembered by the local population He was, as some of you may remember, one of the architects of ‘Faith in the City’, a report that had a profound impact on church and society in recession hit Britain in the 1980s. It gave huge encouragement to church communities, small and large, to engage with the issues affecting their communities and so make a difference to the lives of some of the poorest and most disadvantaged people. Eric was someone who believed deeply in a gospel that could and should change lives, change churches and change communities and I continue to be deeply grateful for his wisdom and his inspiration. Amongst his writings was the biography of another radical Christian thinker, Bishop John Robinson. Bishop John had come from a long line of clerics, and it was the family motto which had been instilled in him from his earliest years that connect both Eric and John and remain an inspiration to my own Christian witness – ‘not for ourselves alone but for the whole world are we born.’ Only by this maxim can we hope to transform the kingdoms of this world into the kingdom of our God.’ +Peter Taunton Friends of Somerset Churches and Chapels: Church Visits Saturday 23rd June: St.Andrew, Mells; St. Michael, Buckland Dinham and SS Peter and Paul, Kilmersdon.

What does it mean to be a Christian? What is the church for? The church always seems to be asking for your money ( and we will be doing again at the Summer Fair, watch this space!!) but that’s so we can look after our five buildings and pay our share towards the costs of the vicars in the diocese. But, the church shouldn’t really be a fundraising group. Jesus’ last words were, “Go therefore to all the tribes, make them into my pupils and teach them to put my teaching into practice”. As we gather together, week by week, on a Sunday to celebrate again Jesus’ rising from the dead, we listen to his teaching, pray for the world in which we live and strengthen ourselves once more to go out through the doors of the church building and, little by little, with God’s help, learn how to put the teachings of Jesus into practice. The very last thing we celebrate in this first half of the church’s year, is not something that happened to Jesus but the fulfilment of one of his promises. This last Christian festival is Pentecost, when we remember God sending his very essence, the Holy Spirit, into the hearts and minds of the first Christian believers. We believe that this gift is still ours today, making God closer to Christians than they are to themselves, and enrols us into a life-long inner dialogue with God , someone to whom we bring all our problems, our hopes and our fears and who in ways impossible to describe accompanies us through our whole life’s journey. And all Jesus’ teachings and all the guidance of God and the twitchings of our conscience, boil down to this one thing: love one another, as I have loved you. Nothing else matters. Jo Every year, the churches in our area get together and invite the Bishop to come to hold a service of Confirmation at which people of all ages gather to reaffirm their baptism vows and be confirmed. Traditionally, this is the prelude to taking a full part in church life by becoming a regular participant in the service when we bless and share bread and wine together, as Jesus did the night before he died and which he commanded his followers to do ever after in his name. If any youngster from the age of 9 upwards, or adult is interested in being confirmed please let the Rector or a Church Warden know. 5 PARISH CHURCH NEWS ALL PARISHES Benefice Summer Fair Saturday 14th July 2012 The next planning meeting will take place in the Arthur Morison Memorial Hall, Cucklington on Monday 18th June 2012 at 6.00 p.m. Village representatives will be attending but anyone who is running a stall, interested in doing so or just helping out on the day is very welcome to attend.

We do have a good system in place but it would be so useful to have extra help, either with taking on a round should a distributor be away or ill, or perhaps delivering to a small area in your village on a permanent basis. Copies are usually with your village distributor during the third week of the month and we try to get them on doorsteps as soon after that as possible since it is very frustrating for the organisers of village functions, such as the Jubilee celebrations, or the Summer Fair, if the information doesn’t get out before the end of the month, so delivery is done as quickly as possible. We have ten issues a year (no delivery in August and December). If you would like to help, either on a temporary or regular basis, please phone Biddy Moreton for Charlton Musgrove (33256), Gay Harrison for Cucklington (31841), Alison Dixon for Stoke Trister, Leigh Common and Riding Gate (32447) and Maggie Giles (33147) for Bayford. If you hear of anyone who doesn’t receive a copy please let Alison know. Special thanks go to Brian and Averill Ellard who have distributed the newsletter for many years – best wishes to Brian for a good recovery from his hip operation and thanks to Mel and Ben Giles who have kindly agreed to take over this round. AD If you have internet access you will find a copy of Village News on your village website Charlton Musgrove: www.charltonmusgrove.org Website Editor: Steve Jarrett at [email protected] Cucklington: www.cucklington.org.uk Website Editor: Clive Dand at [email protected] Stoke Trister with Bayford: www.stoketrister.co.uk Website Editor: Roger Perry at [email protected] Many thanks to Jackie Crisp and the Trustees of the Arthur Morison Hall for their contribution to the Newsletter Fund. JS NEWSLETTER DONATIONS VERY WELCOME! Printing costs of this newsletter are met solely by donations AN APPRECIATION People are so kind. At home, in the church, at clubs, in town, in the shops, there is always someone to help or encourage. Kerbs are too steep, shelves too high, shopping too heavy to lift into the car – someone is always on hand voluntarily to help when you want or need them to. Thank you everyone. All – most – of us decrepit old folk are so grateful to you.

Somerset Community Barn Owl Project a Nesting Box for every Parish in the County Somerset Wildlife Trust is teaming up with local parish communities for the Barn Owl Project. Somerlea Farm Charlton Musgrove had a visit from Chris Sperring MBE. He agreed the habitat around the farm was ideal for breeding Barn Owls (lots of voles) He has provided a community nesting box and selected a mature Ash tree in a field hedge at Somerlea Farm. It can be seen from the house and the B3081 roadside. 60 schools in the county have organised children’s workshops making 335 nesting boxes. We hope to involve local children and families in the parish. If we are fortunate to have breeding Barn Owl chicks, Chris will come down to Somerlea for the ringing and recording. He may even bring “Beau “his Barn Owl with him for the children to see.

Neighbourhood Watch Please don’t be afraid to ring me if you have any doubts about callers, or have seen anything suspicious (01963 33465). We have heard from the Community Neighbourhood Watch Office that there has been an increase in rogue traders calling door to door to obtain work, using ‘hard sell’ tactics and charging exorbitant amounts. It is also important not let any stranger into the house without genuine identification and to keep doors and windows locked where possible. If you think a caller is bogus or a rogue trader, then call the police immediately using the general number 101 (or 999 only in a real emergency).

MG/AD CUCKLINGTON PARISH MEETING: Cucklington Parish 14 May 2012: Thank you for inviting me to Chair the Parish Meeting. I look forward to working with you, and for you in the best interests of our community. We would all wish to thank Vivian who has performed this role for over 10 years and has worked tirelessly for Cucklington. She has always been available to discuss local issues and has made sure the authorities respond appropriately. She has also secured funding for projects which help to maintain the character of our lovely village. Vivian is still involved in the defibrillator project and is now on the Village Hall Committee. 17 There are some activities underway, as well as the normal Parish business: Parish Plan: A group has been formed to take forward the Parish Plan. The group comprises the following: Martin Speller, Julia Crawford-Smith, Christopher Birrell and John Crocker. They are investigating current standards for this document and will be consulting our community. This process will take many months and will require a great deal of hard work from this group. The aim is to give an overview of how we would like to see Cucklington develop over the next 10 to 15 years. Emergency Plan: We have an emergency plan but it is now time to review and update it. Some people have moved, some no longer have the capability to provide support and there are many new people in the Parish who may not be aware of the plan and may wish to be part of it. Contact You can contact me by phone, email or in person – Gordon Czapiewski Telephone 01963 32076; email [email protected] . Feel free to contact me. GC COMMUNITY ACCESS DEFIBRILLATOR We have now ordered the defibrillator which will be installed in the Cucklington telephone box. Actual installation will take place after a full training evening for the village which will take place on Friday, 22nd JUNE betweem 7pm and 9 pm in the VILLAGE HALL The training will be comprehensive and will be conducted by Tom Jackson of the South Western Ambulance Service.
