Large Selection of Locally Grown Plants from £1.00
Editors Letter...
This warmer weather most certainly
motivates you to consider the outdoor
life we‘d almost forgotten—the garden!
We are tempted with the thoughts of
warm summer evenings with a glass of
your favourite tipple, enjoying friends
company as the light evenings last until
10pm.
But, as we all know, to really appreciate this
time, the garden needs some work, no matter
how low maintenance it may be! This long
cold winter has taken it‘s toll.
As you can see from the advert to the left of
this page, Auckley Parish Centre will be
hosting a garden sale on 3rd April, this is a
fabulous opportunity to stock up your
borders with local plants, flowers and shrubs,
as well as help towards the Parish Hall fund.
Green thumb are at hand to sort out any
troublesome lawns or even just to help
maintain the good one you may be lucky
enough to have. Before you know it, your
garden will be looking ship shape.
Talking about flowers, this is one of the first
months since we started ‗Flowers for
Someone Special‘ that we are without a
nomination. I know so many people who
deserve a bouquet, so please, let me have
your nominations in time for the May issue.
If you are off on holiday over the Easter
period, make sure you check Tina G‘s packing
with confidence feature, especially now that
the airlines charge for luggage!
The deadline for the May issue is Wednesday
17th April. I hope everyone has an enjoyable
Easter break—a bit of advice from a
chocoholic, try not to eat too many eggs!
Happy Easter

Ethiopia, so much more than you see
on T.V.
At our February meeting we had a very
entertaining and informative slide show and talk
from Giles Braithwaite on his adventures in the
fascinating country of Ethiopia.
His journey took him to areas of historical and
religious significance where we had glimpses of the
beauty and culturally rich Coptic Christian
churches carved deep into the granite of the
mountains, then on to very differing climatic parts
of the country.
We saw high mountains areas where he woke to
ice and hard frosts, valleys green with running
water and dry parched stretches of the country.
All the time he introduced the many different life
forms that each area supported and that he had so
wanted to see, insects, birds with strange and
comical names,foxes, monkeys, baboons and
camels.
He talked of his pleasure at meeting and inter-
acting with the people and their curiosity about
him and his cameras, telescope, binoculars etc.
while keeping us amused with tales of some of his
minor mishaps.
All in all we had a very interesting afternoon,
carried along by his obvious enthusiasm for all he
had been able to see and do.
As mentioned in last month’s Arrow, why don't you join
us for our next meeting, Tuesday 30th of March,
1.45p.m. in Finningley Village hall, when we shall be
opening up a reminiscence box from Doncaster
Museum Service. Curious? Come along and see what
memories it provokes in you.

Conservative Candidate gets out and about in
Branton and Auckley
Matt Stephens, the new conservative candidate for the Don Valley constituency, standing against Labour‘s
high profile MP Caroline Flint, is basing himself in Hatfield for the duration of the campaign – expected to
end on polling day May 6th.
In the last month he has been door knocking across Don Valley including in Branton and Auckley. This
listening exercise has brought to light resident feelings on issues such as immigration where the message
has come through loud and clear that voters feel central government has failed to heed their concerns
over the influx of immigrants into Britain. ―The sheer number of people and the different nationalities are
overwhelming our public services― he says ―It‘s not a racist issue – it‘s a leadership issue‖.
People tell me they are angry with the Leadership of this Government for not being more like the Aussies,
careful of who they choose to come to the country and strong on the message that they are coming to
Britain which means they will need to speak English and live within out values and culture. What makes
them so disappointed and so angry is that no-one has been listening to them.‖
Educated at Garforth Comprehensive and Lancaster University where he studied politics and international
affairs, his first task was to set up his own business in York and having seen young people at a loose end –
he also set up a highly successful youth activity programme –Global York. With no background in active
politics he took on the challenge of overturning an 8,000 Labour majority because he sees the seat as
―winnable‖.
―I was so fed up with what has been happening over three Labour terms of office and things going from
bad to worse, I decided it was time to stand up and be counted. On my door stepping campaign I have
discovered a lot of people with the same feelings – often of outrage, feeling they have been conned – and
they have promised me their support.
He sees Don Valley the election as a two-horse race – ―Any vote other than for me is in effect a vote for
Labour. ―He stresses ―In this election is no place for the traditional protest vote. We have to save the
country from another four years of clunking fist of top down Labour government‖
Twitters emails and blogs play a big part in his communications strategy – for more information it‘s

Every time my dog gets out of its basket, it has wet its
basket. Is this bladder control? What can we do to
prevent or help this situation? Claire from Hatfield
Urinary incontinence can occur in male and female dogs of all ages but especially when
they get older. To get an accurate diagnosis, a veterinary surgeon would need to examine
your dog and get a urine sample to check for other signs of illness. If it is incontinence due
to age or a weak bladder then tablets or drops can be prescribed to help
reduce and make them feel much better as most dogs get quite upset
when they are used to be being quite clean.
How often should I bath my dog? P M from
Hatfield
This can vary depending on whether your dog has a skin problem that
may need regular bathing with a prescribed
shampoo or treatment. If this is the case,
then advice on the number of times will be
given under the vet‘s direction. If it‘s just for
grooming and cleanliness, as long as a dog
shampoo is used and rinsed off well then it
can be done once a week, remembering to
dry your pet well after bathing, especially in
cold weather conditions. Muddy paws can be
cleaned more often!

Your concerns are our priorities!
Did you know that every community in Doncaster has a team dedicated to policing your
neighbourhood?
Safer Neighbourhood Teams (SNT) were introduced two years ago to provide a local
policing service in the heart of communities. The teams were set up in partnership and
consist of police officers and council staff, who work with other agencies to focus on the
needs of the local communities in Doncaster.
The SNT‘s hold regular monthly community meetings and invite you, the community, to
have your say and express any concerns or issues you have in your neighbourhood.
In the South SNT‘s community meetings, concerns were raised about anti social behaviour and young
people gathering on the streets at night.
To tackle this concern, Operation Staysafe was set up to focus on young people who were out on the
streets at night, who were at possible risk of becoming involved, or could become a victim of, antisocial
behaviour and crime.
The operation took place on 27 February from 6pm to midnight. The SNT officers worked in partnership
with Youth Services and patrolled Rossington, Cantley, Bessacarr, Tickhill, Bawtry, Wadworth, Auckley
and surrounding villages, and interacted with any young people that were out on the streets.
Over 60 young people were spoken to on the night and signposted to diversionary activities and help and
advice that was available to them during the evenings.
Sergeant t Russ Higham said ―The operation was a great success and working in partnership we are able
to tackle this concern by engaging with the young people and directing them to activities and advice
available. We will be conducting further operations like this to aid in tackling this concern. ―

Over the years, this place has been very important to people, especially recently for the huge gathering for
the funeral of Barbara Siddons. A lovely lady who will be sorely missed by many, particularly the ladies
fellowship of the church. This lively group, around 25
strong, meets every Tuesday afternoon at 1.45pm
and Barbara organised their much appreciated
outings and Christmas meals for many years. Any
lady looking for friendship, stimulating speakers, a
good cup of tea and biscuits will be made very
welcome. This year, they celebrate their 20th
Anniversary.
We also invite you to our church services every
Sunday at 6.30pm and on 2nd Sunday of the month at
10.30am. You will find genuine friendliness, we have
an excellent old pipe organ, a first class organist and
deputy and we love to sing!
To help with our running costs from time to time we
arrange fund raising events and on 24th April at
Cantley Methodist Church, we have again secured
the services of Tickhill and district Male Voice Choir
to perform in concert. All the profits from this
evening will be for Auckley Chapel, anyone who
attended the choir‘s concerts last year, will know we
are in for a great evening. So thanks again to Auckley
All 4 All and success to them in all the good work
they do. We look forward to welcoming you either
at the ladies fellowship, at one of our services or
both!
Margaret & Geoff Heath.
Then in 1982, an
extension was added
at the rear
to provide room for a
Sunday school and
much
needed facilities
installed. Prior to that
date there
had been no running water on the premises, it was at this time, the church was painted it‘s now familiar
red.
On behalf of Auckley Methodist Chapel I would like
to thank Auckley All 4 All for their very
kind gift of £200 for our chapel funds.
The church has been at the centre of village life since
1832 when Auckley was just a small farming
community and the building was surrounded
by fields. Originally the outside was
plain red brick, later this was rendered
and painted white.

Proposed Gating of Common Lane, Auckley In an effort to eradicate fly tipping and other ant-social activities occurring along
Common Lane, DMBC's Neighbourhood Team, supported by local landowners
including the Parish Council, is to apply for the rural part of the lane to be gated
at both ends. This will restrict vehicular access but will allow pedestrians and
horses to gain entrance to the lane.

Joel Gooderham in year 2 has been worried about the speed of traffic outside
Hayfield lane Primary School. He wrote to

An Easter Break
Planned?
Pack with
confidence With Tina G
Refer to this list as a guide for creating your
perfect 'capsule wardrobe' for any holiday.
Deciding what to take is always difficult, but
versatility is key; so take outfits and shoes that
can be dressed up and down to fit all of the
scenarios of the trip.
Here goes...
Underwear - for each day. Flesh-
coloured are perfect and go under any colour
clothing. Take one multi-way bra to ensure it can
always be altered to suit the top half of your outfit.
Flattering pair of boot-cut jeans – dark denim
or black
One pair of trousers - the lighter the better for
hotter climates, thicker for cooler destinations.
One pair of shorts - knee length and tailored.
These can be dressed down with ballet pumps or
flip-flops, or worn with killer heels for the evening.
A dress - make it versatile, something you can
wear sightseeing, but also dress up to dine out in
the evenings. Maxi skirt or dress can be worn as
beachwear cover-ups or dressed up in the evening.
One skirt – that can be mixed and matched with
your tops.
Three plain tops - natural fabrics are best; one in
each of your 3 favourite colours.
One cool kaftan - great as a cover-up on the
beach, but also great for day or evening with your
lightweight trousers or jeans dressed up or down
depending on where you are going.
Two casual tops - a crisp white shirt would tie in
well here, as would a short-sleeved cotton or silk
tunic, or cashmere or light wool for cooler
weather. Crinkle-effect clothing is a great solution
to the age-old problem of creases. Monsoon image courtesy of pr shots.com
Don‘t take
everything with you
―just in case‖!
‗Remember, only choose
pieces you feel gorgeous in
and if you don't wear it at home,
don't take it on holiday!‘
Two evening tops - choose something in your
strongest, favourite colours.
One lightweight smart cardigan - a simple way
to cover-up when the sun goes down. White will
make it very versatile… and chic!
One Jacket - lightweight and not easily creased;
this is a staple for cooler destinations
Two sarongs – take up very little room and you
can wear as an evening cover-up, or skirt-style on
the beach, or to cover your shoulders on cultural
visits. Visit www.baliwear.com to see how to tie a
sarong to create different looks or try
www.saress.com for an alternative to the usual
sarong!!
Swimwear - 2 bikinis and a one-piece swimsuit,
or the versatile tankini which can do the job of
both (and also double up as a vest top!
One pair of comfy flats – flip flops for the beach
or open toe sandals or pumps.

A pair of fabulous flip-flops - jewelled are fun

Cork and cut-out wedges are versatile and light-
weight. Perfect for both day and evening outfits.
Remember, just one of these!
One pair of heels or sparkly sandals – these
alone will accessorise and dress up an evening
outfit.
Accessories - will transform even the sim-
plest outfit. Pack less and accessorise to vary your
look with fewer clothes!
Sunglasses - in one of this season's fashion styles,
make sure you feel comfortable in them, (i.e. not
too large for your face).
Statement jewellery - never underestimate how
a statement piece can transform an outfit, and
remember bright accessories show off a tan. Items
must be bold in colour and chunky, multicoloured
beads are perfect and embellished bib necklaces
are everywhere this season. For day wear carved
wrist cuffs and bangles are a great way to add col-
our to an outfit.
Belt - wide and dramatic to dress up your kaftan,
or narrow and elegant to finish your tailored
shorts and crisp white shirt look perfectly.
Hat to protect you from the sun during the day
A large canvas bag - with plenty of room for all
your day trip essentials and doubled up as hand
luggage.
A simple clutch bag - for evening do‘s, why not
get a travel wallet that can double up as a clutch?
Pashmina/wrap - may be old hat in the fashion
world but they are essential for travelling. Make a
colourful wrap on to the plane to keep you warm,
and then wear it in the evenings. Also, to cover
shoulders if you're travelling to countries where
this is a cultural expectation.
A light-weight, belted Mac or waterproof
Final tip: Clever layering is one way to get around
changeable weather conditions.
Have a fab holiday

News from Branton St
Wilfrid’s C.E. Primary School
‘World Wide Week’
In February we held a „World Wide‟ curriculum
focus week, with the aim to broaden children‟s
knowledge and understanding of different
countries and cultures across the world. Each
class chose a different country to learn about:
Peru-Class R enjoyed finding out about Peru
because one of our favourite book characters,
Paddington Bear, came from „Darkest Peru‟.
Class R conducted surveys of their favourite
sandwiches (his were marmalade!), made some of their own and as part of Design Technology they
made Paddington a waterproof coat. Class R also made their own Peruvian pan pipes to use in
movement and dance.
Mexico-Class 1 found out about the country of Mexico. This included learning a bit about „The
Aztecs,‟ trying to speak some Spanish and tasting some traditional Mexican foods during a „fiesta‟
at the end of the week.
France-Class 2 explored France and its traditions through many fun activities e.g. re-creating
Monet pictures, flag making and musical sessions. Class 2 tried out their French in many lessons,
including Maths! They certainly enjoyed a French breakfast, sampling a range of traditional foods
such as croissants.
Italy-Class 3 looked at maps, photographs etc. to find out how Italian children live and what their
schools are like. Children also looked at Italian art and architecture.
India-Class 4 are studying India as their topic this term, so „World Wide‟ Week enabled some
wider study. Class 4 enjoyed a dance workshop led by Satnam Singh, they made some delicious
Indian food (which I enjoyed tasting!), read an Indian myth in Literacy, looked at facts and
figures about climate in Maths and learned a bit about words and language. One of our parents
kindly visited school to lead a
workshop session about Indian
weddings.
When Mr Singh came to
school by Mollie, Class 4
I was really excited when Mrs
Neville said we had a special
visitor today and then we went
into the hall and it was Mr
Singh. Mr Singh came to show
us Indian dancing and drums.
He played the drums for a
while and then we did some
amazing Indian dances. After
playtime we saw the big Dholl
again, and it was extremely
loud!
33
Hindu Weddings by Oliver, Class 4
On the 10th March we learned about Hindu weddings. Some people got dressed up in the Indian
clothes. I was a page boy with Rahul. The girls dressed up in the wedding dress which was a
blouse and a skirt. You go round a fire seven times at a Hindu wedding for good luck. When Kings
and Queens get married at a Hindu wedding they come on an elephant. For normal people the
groom comes on a horse. They have mango leaves over their head for a sign of good luck. Thank
you to Mrs Dutt for coming in to lead our session.
Spain-Class 5 worked in groups used computers to research tourism, sport, home life and
education, industry, shopping and food. In Food Technology Class 5 baked a traditional Spanish
cake and, in Art, drawing was in the style of Picasso. Class 5 used their debating skills to discuss
the tradition of bull fighting and they wrote persuasive letters to support their arguments. Class
5 also researched Flamenco dancing and Spanish music.
Australia-Class 6 looked at the Australian climate, flora and fauna, famous people and places.

We are pleased to share that we
have achieved Doncaster‟s Charter
Mark for Inclusion. This award is
given to schools that can
demonstrate consistently good
practice in meeting the needs of
different children. We took part in a
vigorous assessment process, which
involved evaluating our practice
against the 55 Charter Mark
standards, and an assessment visit
from the Local Authority Inclusion
team who reviewed our policies,
records and procedures and talked
to different staff, children and
parents.
We visited the Mansion House in
February to collect our certificate
and the children enjoyed their tour
of the Mansion House afterwards.
Visit from Mayflower Animal
Sanctuary
The children in Class R were very
excited to welcome some special
visitors from the Mayflower Animal
Sanctuary, as part of their Animals
topic. Volunteers from the
Mayflower Sanctuary brought in a
very cute puppy, two kittens and a
rabbit.

From p33...The children were very interested
to learn about the work of the charity and find
out about the care of animals.
Our very calm animal visitors seemed to thor-
oughly enjoy the fuss and attention given to
them by our children! Following the visit we
received a lovely letter from the staff at the
Mayflower Sanctuary thanking school for the
donation of £100 towards the valuable work of
this charity which relies entirely on charitable
donations.
Class 5 visit Gainsborough Old Hall
Class 5 visited Gainsborough Old Hall as part of our studies of Tudor Life. We began with a tour
of the hall, including role play in the kitchen, where we were kept busy with many jobs. We visited
the bedrooms where King Henry V111 stayed with Queen Katherine Howard and learned how the
Lord of the Hall had his own
buffet cupboard for when
he wanted a “midnight
feast!” We then dressed up
to take part in a mock Tudor
banquet, re-enacting the
roles of the servers, acro-
bats, jugglers, jesters,
dancers and the very impor-
tant “top table” guests,
including King Henry. We
enjoyed visiting the exhibi-
tion of Tudor clothing and
jewellery alongside our very
important visit to the shop,
which is always an essential
part of visits! The children
were very well behaved and
the guides complimented
them on their knowledge of
the Tudor period.
As you can see from the
above, we have had a very
busy month at Branton St
Wilfrid‟s and we have many
Easter activities before the
end of term!
Best Wishes

Happy Easter! Well the sun has been shining at last and it feels as though spring has
finally sprung! I hope everyone has a great Easter break and that the sun continues to
shine as we embark on our summer term.
Tag Rugby Success Congratulations to our team of Year 5 and 6 children (aka Auckley Warriors!) who, having come
first in the Hayfield Pyramid Tag Rugby Tournament earlier this year, went on to win the
Doncaster tournament. All the children played really well and were a credit to the school. The
team were well supported by parents and thanks must go to Dave Wade and Richard Sladdin in
particular for their continuing help and support.
Auckley Warriors will now go through to the South Yorkshire finals in Barnsley – good luck
everyone!
Year 6 Film Making Day Lights, camera, action! And the
Oscar goes to... Well, not quite
Oscar material but Year 6 had a
brilliant day at Balby City Learning
Centre making their own film - in
French!! The children had a tour of
the TV studio and were shown how a
film is recorded as well as spending
time to rehearsing for their debut.
They all worked really hard and are
looking forward to seeing their film
when it is released!

Fair Trade Fortnight As part of their work in RE and
Global Citizenship, Year 6 have
been learning about Fair Trade
and this coincided nicely with
Fair Trade Fortnight. We were
privileged to have the company
of Kate Heywood, a former
teacher and fair trader, who
gave the class a very enlightening
talk about fair trade and the
work of Traidcraft in particular.
Aliens invade Foundation! One ordinary Friday morning
something strange happened in
Foundation – all the children
disappeared and were replaced by visitors from outer space! Or so we thought... On closer
inspection we realised it was only the nursery and reception children dressed up as aliens to
celebrate the end of their topic on transport (the children were particularly interested in rockets
and other planets, hence the aliens in case anyone was having trouble with the connection!). The
role play area was transformed into a spaceship and the children had great fun using computers to
produce pictures of rockets and aliens.

Local History and Country Notes Compiled by Brian Tansey F.R.G.S.
34 Springwood Close, Branton, Doncaster, DN3 3UD
Tel: 01302 534959 E Mail: [email protected]
In this issue we are looking at the ancient Village of Finningley. During our Pre-History Period (period
prior to the keeping of any form of written records, other than in the form of rock art) some 1800 years
ago the whole of this geographical region from the western edge of Doncaster extending well into North
Lincolnshire to the East and touching the Northern edge of Nottinghamshire was under up to 30 feet of
water, an area which is now known as Lake Humber to Geologists studying the past of our region. As we
know man has continued to drain the land around our villages for agricultural use, from historical times till
quite recently. Records tell us that even in 1626 there was apparently a large shallow lake to the East of
Finningley and that ferry boats operated between it and the Isle of Axholme. To date I have not been able
to pin point exactly where the lake edge
was or where the Ferry Boats would
have worked from in Finningley.
Archaeological finds in the Finningley
area indicate that there was some form
of settlement here in the pre-history
period. There are a number of
archaeological artefacts in the Doncaster
Museum that were found in the
Finningley area, two of which are spear
heads. Axe heads are quite common
finds in the locality, as too are flints etc.
The Doncaster Museum states that ‗Early
Bronze Age people lived in small
farmsteads, usually in river valleys where
the soil was fertile and drained freely.‘
As we know Finningley has two rivers
(waterways) close by, the River Torne
and the River Idle, and that Finningley
itself almost certainly had such a
settlement as described by the Museum
Service, the finds would certainly suggest
such.
Boats such as these (photographed
above) would almost certainly have been
used in and around the waterways of
Finningley Village during the Bronze and
Iron Ages.
This hand drawn map to the right was
done by John Rhodes in 1711 based on a
survey carried out by Jofias Arclebone in
1639. You might note that only six
houses are shown, each with a chimney,
however I would suspect that this image
only indicates a number of houses and
that its possible there were a few more.
At that time Finningley was part of the
Manor of Hatfield Chase.

In the 1800s Finningley may have still been a
part of Manor of Hatfield Chase, but the
local Lord of the Manor was it appears a
John Harvey who lived in Finningley Manor
House which was located I believe in the
centre of what is now the Robin Hood
Airport Runway. At that time Finningley was
in the County of Nottinghamshire, not
Yorkshire.
The name Finningley has changed over the
years, in the Doomsday Book it appears as
Finiglei circ 1086. In 1175 it became
Feningelay. A.D.Mills (Local Historian) says
that the interpretation of both these names
mean, ‗Woodland clearing of the dwellers of
the Fen‘. This of course fits in with what we
know, since this area was fenland until it was
drained in the 16th century until recent
times. The Doomsday Book tells us that in 1086 this area belonged to a Gilbert Tison.
‗In Finningley Swein had 6 bovates of land to the geld. There is land for 3 ploughs. There Gilbert has half a
plough, and 15 villans and 4 bordars having five half ploughs. There is woodland pasture 2 leagues long and
2 broad‘.
Interpretation
Bovate = means Ox or an area that can be ploughed by an Ox. Geld = means the English Land Tax. Villan means = A peasant of higher economic status than a Bordar. Bordar = means a Cottager of lower economic status than a Villan.

Mirror, Mirror... Dear Readers, Do you remember the old mantra ―mirror, signal, manoeuvre‖?
Experienced drivers develop their mirror skills to the next level, by ―scanning‖ and even using a glance
over their shoulder to remove the dreaded ―blind spot‖.
―Scanning‖ mirrors involves checking all three mirrors in sequence, starting with one side mirror, then
checking the interior mirror and finally finishing on the other side mirror.
To be consistent and effective, you should use all the information that is available to you when you are
driving.
Things change quickly, particularly in a busy urban environment and you want the best information you can
get (i.e. the most recent) before you commit to a manoeuvre
If we take signalling as an example, ideally all three mirrors should be checked before you apply the
indicator. So, if you are going to signal to the right, you start with the right exterior mirror, then the
interior mirror, the left exterior and finally the right exterior again.
The reason we finish there is that this is the direction you intend to go and so it will let you know if it
actually safe to put on the indicator. You might want to delay a moment perhaps to let another road user
react to your intentions.
On the other hand, if you were signalling to the left,
you would start with the left exterior mirror, the
interior, the right exterior and back to the left
exterior before applying the indicator.
As you start your turn, another quick glance in the
relevant mirror is reassuring.
When changing lanes, it is a good idea to get into the
habit of supplementing the mirror scan with a right
shoulder check, which assures you that there is
nothing ―sitting‖ in your blind spot, moving along at a
similar speed to you and so remaining undetected. A
fast moving motorbike will be picked up by this
glance, even if your mirror check a moment earlier
failed to pick up that the rider was changing lanes
and overtaking at the same time.
These shoulder checks should be no more than a
glance, however: your primary attention must be on
the road ahead. Advanced driver‘s even use a left
shoulder check to keep an eye out for bicycles.
If you are interested in further information regarding
the courses that we offer you will be able to find this
information on the Institute of Advanced Motorists
website at www.iam.org.uk or Tel:020 8996 9600. Safe Driving.

A Different Perspective
It comes around each year, at a slightly different time,
and it‘s quite familiar. So this year I invite you to read
the Easter story from a slightly different perspective…
You’re restless. You haven’t slept for 3 days. Your eyes are
red from your tears. It’s still dark, but you can’t wait any
longer. You must go to him. You collect the ointments and
spices you’ll use to anoint his body, and slip quietly out of
the house. The sun is rising now, but the ground is still wet
with dew. You hurry through the streets of the city, hiding
your face with your scarf. There is still tension; fear and
suspicion hang in the air. You hurry faster.
As you reach the outskirts and slow a little. You begin to
think about the task ahead. It isn’t a pleasant task. It’s one you never imagined you would be doing. You couldn’t
imagine him dying. He was the centre of your life. Nothing makes sense without him.
You think back to the day you first met him. When he saw you, amongst all those crowds… All you wanted to do
was get to know this man – Jesus. So you joined his group of followers. You travelled with him, you prepared food
for him to eat, and found places where he could rest. And you listened carefully when he spoke. You saw him heal
so many people. You watched, anxiously, as his enemies grew more hostile. But you believed in his power to
overcome them. You believed he was the promised Messiah.
But what do you believe now? He is dead. You watched him die. You stood and watched as nails were hammered
in and his body was hauled brutally up onto the cross. You saw the pain in his face as each breath grew weaker.
You saw the despair in his eyes. You heard him cry out to God, and then you watched him die.
You reach the tomb, and stop suddenly. Stunned. The
stone has been rolled away. What does this mean? You
run inside, but the tomb is empty. Jesus has gone. A
bright light dazzles you and you shield your eyes. When
you look up, you see two men stood beside you, dressed
in shining white. You realise they are angels, and in terror
you fall to the ground at their feet. You hear them say,
‘Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is
not here; he has risen!’
He is risen? Could it be true? Hope floods your heart.
Desperate to believe, you think back over all the things
you heard Jesus say. You start to remember times when
he spoke about what was going to happen to him, his
death and how he would be raised to life again on the
third day… Today is the third day… Could it really be
true? It makes no sense. It’s impossible. If you tell people
this, they’ll call you mad. No one will believe you. But
suddenly you know that he’s alive. He has risen, just as
he said he would. And you know that nothing will ever be
the same again. Whatever people will think of you, you
have to share this amazing news. You start to run…
Happy Easter
