Dear Friends
Holiday needs and wants
Holidays are an emotive subject. In times of austerity, should we actually
have them? Perhaps it would be better if we all worked far harder than we
do and then the good times will return.
Or, is it a case of the Church getting things right many centuries ago and
recognising Holy Days as days of recreation – over and above the very well
established principal of the Sabbath. For we all need rest and recreation
(and re-creation!). It follows that we all need a holiday.
So, what does that holiday have to consist of? A change in routine or a
change of place? Catered or self-catered? Rest for all for all of the holiday
or a rest for all for some of the holiday? Home or abroad? Car or coach?
Train or plane? The variations are endless. They are all additional to the basic
need. The holiday process develops into something that we want.
In life, we all have needs. We all have wants. A need is something that we
must have, whereas a want is something that will make what we must have
better than the basic. The example above sets out how a holiday can turn
from a need into a want. A car is another example. For those of us living in a
rural area, a reliable car is now a need. The top of the range model is a
want, for the basic model will provide the same space in the vehicle. You will
be able to think of other examples which affect you.
These will be helpful to have in mind when reviewing your giving. Does your
spending on ‘wants’ exceed your giving back to God? And, if so, is this a
basis on which to consider what you give? Some wants will have involved
making commitments to others – we are not saying ‘stop paying for your car
because it is not the basic one’ – for, if you did, that would cause personal
difficulties and be dishonouring to God. But it may be something which
could be looked at when the car is changed (or the next holiday booked).
Sunday the 8th July is Stewardship Sunday and we will be giving some
information about reviewing our giving or indeed for some people starting to
give on a regular basis. Please spend some time looking at the information
and thanking God for:-
Supplying needs
Being generous over and above the supply of needs
Being with us on our holidays (He does not take time off) – and in our cars
And consider how your need to respond to His giving can occur.
Blessings
John

Gardening Club
Beckwithshaw with Pannal and Burn
Bridge
Gardening Club’s last two summer visits are in total contrast to each other!
On Thursday 19 July, we go to Spofforth at 7pm. Two members of the “Spofforth in Bloom” team (both Gardening Club Members too) will share their gardens with us: Lynda will show us her garden with informal perennial borders interwoven with shrubs & trees, arbour, obelisks, lots of pots, summerhouse & raised ornamental pond. Then at Linda’s, we will see a mature garden, with herbaceous boarders, alpine garden on natural exposed bedrock, a long terrace with containers, clipped box and climbing roses. £4.50 for Members and £6.50 for Guests, including refreshments. Anyone wishing to join this visit should let me know in advance, so that we can advise our hosts of numbers. Please book by Monday 9 July.
Then in August, we have something completely different, as we will visit the Allerton Waste Recycling Park (AWRP). Visiting groups are limited to 15 people, as there is a narrow walkway and we will go into the Control Room, but we have 2 dates: Thursday 16th August and Tuesday 21st August, both 2pm at AWRP, for approximately 2 hours. Priority will be given to Members, but I will keep a waiting list for Guests - please book with me by 31st July. £3 for Members and £5 for Guests, which will enable us to donate to the Park’s nominated Charity of the Year, The Trussel Trust.
From September we are back to our speaker evenings for the Autumn, commencing with
Tracy Foster of Tracy Foster Garden Design – “Behind the scenes at the Chelsea Flower Show” on Thursday 20 September, 7:30 at Beckwithshaw
Village Hall.
Enjoy your summer! and we hope to see you at one of our meetings soon.

Amazing Grace
From Slaver to Priest
Not long ago, Bridget Bennett, Mary Clarke and I were on our way to
support Philippa Croft at her confirmation in Ripon Cathedral. I
raised with them the name of the slaver who wrote Amazing Grace.
None of us could remember – we knew it was Sunday! At the
Cathedral I asked Canon Paul Greenwell to remind us – of course it
was John Newton. Canon Greenwell subsequently provided me
with a copy of the enclosed article which may be of interest to you.

AMAZING GRACE
Thirty or so years ago this hymn by John Newton (1725-1807) was
hardly to be found in a single British hymnbook. Long popular in
the USA as a gospel song, it was well ensconced in the UK
hymnological hit parade being put in 32nd place in the 2002 Songs of
Praise poll and 6th in the 2004 poll of readers of Roman Catholic
weekly, The Tablet. Its popularity in Britain was boosted in the
mid-1970’s by a recording of the tune by the pipes and drums of the
Royal Scots Dragoon Guards which was No 1 for nine weeks and
remained in the charts for several months. The hymn has also been
recorded by several leading vocalists and gospel singers.
John Newton was one of the most remarkable figures in the
Evangelical Revival that swept through Britain in the eighteenth
century. His father was a sailor and his mother died when he was 7.
After only two years of schooling, he was sent to sea at the age of 11.
His early life was by his own account godless and dissolute. Flogged

A Cascade of Poppies for
Remembrance
This year on Sunday 11 November we will mark the 100th year since the 1918 Armistice. In recognition of this important centenary, St Robert’s would like to make a public display of crafted poppies cascading from the church
tower in Pannal. The Mothers’ Union are already under way with knitting and crocheting hundreds of poppies and invite all who are interested to join them. You may wish to make a poppy in memory of someone special, or make dozens! Patterns are available from the church office for knitted or crocheted poppies. They can be made in any shade of red, with or without black centres or green leaves. If you prefer to craft them in another form e.g. felting or sewn these will also be welcomed. Any completed poppies can be left at St Robert’s
THE MOTHERS’ UNION
MU July Meeting
The speaker for our last meeting was Jocelyn Brooks who spoke about’India The highs and lows’. Her talk was most interesting with wonderful photographs of beautiful scenery and magnificent historic buildings. She also gave us some background to the geography and history of India, painting a picture of a fascinating country and culture but only very briefly referred to the ‘ untouchables’ and the poverty of many people. Our next meeting is July 4th which is our outing. We are going to ‘Lucia’s ‘ on Ripon Road. Joan Pearson [email protected]
Music Circle Meetings will resume on Monday 10th September at 2.00 p.m. in the Chapter House. All are very welcome to join this
friendly group. We listen to music on a specific topic for about an hour - topics this past season have included "Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue", "Opposites", "War and Peace" and "Festivals". We enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits before we leave.
for deserting from the Navy, at the age of 22 he became captain of a
ship engaged in the slave trade between Britain, West Africa and the
West Indies. Three years later he underwent a dramatic conversion
to Christianity which seems to have started while he was reading
Thomas a Kempis’s book The Imitation of Christ on a voyage across
the Atlantic. A violent storm blew up, and Newton spent nine hours
manning the pumps and a further seventeen hours at the ships
wheel as the waves crashed around him. Several times he found
himself crying aloud to God for protection. The storm eventually
abated, and Newton later traced the first stirrings of the ‘great
change’ that was to turn him towards evangelical religion to his
sense of deliverance after this terrible experience.
Forsaking the slave trade and the seafaring life, he became friendly
with John Wesley and George Whitfield, the two leading figures in
the Evangelical Revival, and spent nine years training for the
Anglican ministry. In 1764 he was ordained and became curate at
Olney in Buckinghamshire. There he collaborated with William
Cowper, the poet and a fellow Evangelical, to produce a collection of
hymns which includes 280 of his own compositions, including such
favourites as ‘Glorious things of thee are spoken’ (no 39 in this
collection) and ‘How sweet the name of Jesus sounds’ (no 53). He
remained at Olney for sixteen years and then went to London as
rector of St Mary Woolnoth where he remained until his death.
‘Amazing Grace’ first appeared in Olney Hymns, which was
published in 1779. It reflects Newton’s own intense conversion
experience and his profound sense that it was only the
overwhelming grace of God which had saved one as wretched as
himself from eternal damnation. The great nineteenth century
(cont.)
hymnologist John Julian says with some justice that it is ‘far from
being a good example of Newton’s work’.
Some versions of the hymn contain an additional verse written by an
unknown hand and apparently first attached to Newton’s hymn in
EO Excell’s Coronation Hymns, published in Chicago in 1910:
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.
The tune Amazing Grace is based on an American folk melody
which seems to have been first published in 1831 in a tune-book
entitled Virginia Harmony. It is very likely Scottish in origin and
was probably brought across the Atlantic by colonists in the
eighteenth century.

1907)
Thanks from Kathleen and Michael for all
those kind enough to contribute and help
celebrate their Golden Wedding
Anniversary at The Smith’s Arms recently.
The congregation of St Michael’s would also
like to thank Kathleen for all the hard
work she has undertaken for St Michael’s
as Churchwarden over a number of years.
It’s time for a well deserved rest.
