From the Vicar
Hello All
The picture you see opposite is from when
Michelle and I spent some time in Dhaka in
Bangladesh with the Church there in 2004.
As I write this for the newsletter I am
reminded of our trip there because we have
recently had the news of over 1000 deaths in
Dhaka following the collapse of the garment
factory and the miraculous rescue after 2
weeks of someone found still alive.
There is such a lot of suffering in this world and not just in third world countries
and not just down to greed or mistakes or the bad people we often come across in
our newspapers and on our T.V. screens. We lose loved ones before their time because of illness or accident; people lose their lives because of natural disasters or
for want basic needs. So I do understand it when people wonder how I and others
can believe in an all powerful and all loving God. If God is all loving, they say, He
cannot be all powerful if he allows such terrible things to happen to good people
or equally, if God is all loving then He must be unable to do anything about the
pain and suffering we face. This is indeed a dilemma and there are no easy
answers although many have tried to come up with them, from the early Greek
philosophers, through theologians from most of the world’s religions to the nihilism
of current atheist and humanist thinkers.
For me, one the things that stands out about Christianity, is that the God we
worship is not a distant God, but is a God who became human in the person of
Jesus and lived and worked and loved and lost, just as we do. And not only that but
Jesus suffers alongside us in our suffering and strove for justice for those who were
suffering on the margins of society and he complained at God for the evil we find
in this world and when faced with his own suffering and death he didn’t just accept
it as many people think he did, but he resisted it, by loving and forgiving those who
persecuted him, in the ultimate act of non-violent resistance. This gives me hope
that not only does God know about our suffering and is with us in that suffering,
but that through following Christ we too can be freed from the fear of both evil and
death.
I know that this is a big stumbling block for many who might come to faith and I
don’t claim to have all the answers but I would love to explore this and other issues
with you if you wanted. We are touching on issues such as this at our Engage
services and will also be doing so as part of the confirmation course which will
take place on the evenings 17th & 24th June and the 15th July in preparation for
the Confirmation by the Archbishop of York at Leven on the 21st July. If you are
interested in confirmation please do contact me.
We also hope to run a course which explores Christianity in more depth after the
summer, so watch this space.
Also watch out for the change in some Church service times this month: are these
better or worse for you? Your feedback is welcome, honest!
Yours in Christ.
Revd Andy Simpson

Skirlaugh Young
Farmers
Skirlaugh Young Farmers have been busy getting ready for
the County Rally which takes place on 1st June at Kilnwick.
The Rally is a big competitions day where Young Farmers

competitions including tractor handling and singing. We
have been doing a range of activities lately including a trip
around Hornsea Inshore Rescue Centre, a craft evening
and car handling. Upcoming events include a games night,
clay pigeon shooting and a talk from an ex county organiser. We are also well on the way with organising our foam
party which takes place on Saturday 20th July, at Benningholme Grange, for which tickets are now on sale.
If you are interested in joining Skirlaugh Young Farmers

CATWICK, A Doubly Thankful Village
Catwick is a "Thankful Village" because it
welcomed all its men back home from both the First and Second World Wars.
The British Legion
Thankful Villages
Motorcycle Run
The British Legion "Thankful Villages Motorcycle Run" has
exploded on the internet and is now almost bigger than the
Olympic Torch!! It is now expected to be anything between
30-50 motorcyclists together with camera crews, newspapers,
magazines etc.
They are due in to Catwick at about 9am on
FRIDAY 2nd AUGUST
and we are hoping to give them breakfast at the Village Hall!!
We will say prayers remembering those who died in WW1 & 2
and, of course, Catwick`s men who returned home. There will
be various presentations, and we will have a big collection for
the British Legion.

The Jubilee Wood will be open to the public for one day, on
SUNDAY 23RD JUNE from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
All residents are welcome to visit the new wood on this day. Access is from the main gate at the
end of Hillfield Drive
PARKING ON GRASS VERGES
The parish council wishes to draw the attention of residents to the damage being caused to grass
verges by parked cars.
During wet weather the verge becomes damaged and rutted. In dry weather the grass becomes
worn, leaving bare patches. At any time the grass cutters are unable to cut where there is a parked
car, leaving long and unsightly areas of uncut grass.
The verges should not be regarded as a parking place and the parish council will appreciate your
co-operation by parking your car off the verges.

Skirlaugh Church News
A Big Thank You
The two recent events held in Skirlaugh Church have been
a great success. Despite a last-minute hitch, the Concert
on 19th April was a huge success when a capacity
audience enjoyed the singing of Martin Jackson and a
young girl, Jodie, who was a most welcome last minute
replacement for Mark Andrews who had suffered a heart
attack. A profit of £923 was made and we send our best
wished to Mark for a full recovery.
The May Bank Holiday weekend saw an Exhibition of
Crafts in church and in an adjoining marquee. The
wonderful needlecrafts and artwork came mainly from the
Holderness Ladies Craft Club, along with some local talent
from the village. Approximately 250 people enjoyed the
event and many stayed for refreshments in the cafe which
was open throughout the weekend in the tent . The event
resulted in a profit of just over £700. The profit from these
two events together will just about pay the final instalment
for the new sound system in church. Many thanks to
everyone who supported these events in any way.

Retirement of Skirlaugh's organist
after 31 years
On 28th April the congregation of St Augustine's Church said goodbye to Glynne Jarratt, who has been the organist for
31 years at Skirlaugh and at times at other churches in the benefice. In addition, for many years he was also an excellent choirmaster. When the church celebrated its 600th Anniversary in 2004, Glynne published a book
entitled "The Life of Walter Skirlaw", which he spent six years researching and writing. Walter Skirlaw was born in Skirlaugh and took his surname from the village name and later became Prince Bishop of Durham, but never forgot his
home village and had the present church built, which was completed two years before he died in 1406.
As a token of our appreciation he was presented with an engraved silver bookmark in the shape of a cross and a
cheque His wife Christine, who has been a regular
member of the congregation throughout those years, and a member of the church council and social committee, was
presented with a bouquet of flowers to thank her for her contribution to church life. After his final service, Glynne and
Christine joined the congregation for a buffet lunch in church We wish them both a long and happy retirement.

your support. We are grateful to Andree and Tony Nolan
for allowing us to use Benningholme Hall for this event.
Everyone is invited to attend - please see block advert for
details of ticket purchase.
The Auction of Promises will be held during the evening,
when those there will be able to bid for the promises –
those unable to attend will be able to bid by proxy. The
Auction Catalogue will be published before the event and
on the evening they are auctioned and sold to the highest
bidder and the money goes to Church. The winner and the
offerer can then arrange at their mutual convenience.
We have already been promised a pillion ride to
Hornsea on the back of the Vicar’s scooter, baby sitting,
ironing, afternoon tea and a garden tour, a homemade
cake a week for 3 weeks, six painting lessons and a brand
new picnic hamper. At time of writing we have almost 30
promises including Art and Music lessons, shopping trip to
a supermarket, family vouchers for Burton Constable Hall
and Grounds, a flower arrangement, rides in a pony and
trap, the Vicar's Vespa 200 scooter and in a 42-year old
MGB Roadster. See last months Newsletter for other ideas.
If you would like to make a promise we would be very
grateful to you. Please let me know so I can let you have a
form to detail your promise. We look forward to your support to help us to make this an enjoyable and successful
evening.

From the time Joan and David arrived in the village
until her illness Joan took part in so many organisations in
the village. She was a long-time member of the WI and
was President many times. She was a very enthusiastic
member and encouraged other members in taking part in
so many aspects of the organisation including quizzes and
Group Rallies. There is a lovely photograph of Joan in a
WI album as she was setting off for London to a special WI
meeting when everyone was expected to wear a hat and
Joan looked wonderful.
We were invited to her home for WI Christmas parties and birthday celebrations. Many remember enjoying
the Keep Fit classes Joan organised and instructed in the
Village Hall and she also served on the village hall committee for several years.
Joan was very dedicated to St Margaret’s Church
being a member of the PCC, a sidesperson and the one
who organised the rota for the flowers in church and brass
cleaning. Joan and David also held events at their home to
raise money for the church.
When Revd. David Perry began the newsletter Joan
was the newsgatherer for Long Riston. At Christmas- time
Joan sang with the ‘instant choir’ at the special Carol Services. She enjoyed all aspects of village life and helped in
so many ways in the village.
Joan will be remembered with great affection by all
who knew her and worked with her and we give thanks for
her warm friendship and everything she did for our village
so gladly and willingly.
