I used this image and quote in a recent Morning Prayer session that I was leading. These are words from Winnie the Pooh – “I’ll always be with you” and they reminded me that they can be related to our relationship with God. Think of the words “God is with you.” These words are mentioned continually throughout the Bible from Genesis to the Gospels and beyond. We are left in no uncertain terms that wherever we are, however we are feeling, God is with us. Even when we feel alone, He is with us and will never forsake us. Imagine how the shepherds felt when they heard the name “Immanuel” meaning “God is with us.” We are also told that when Jesus ascends into heaven and we can no longer physically be with us, we will be empowered by the Holy Spirit and will dwell within us and stay with us forever. What a beautiful reminder that God does not abandon us to travel through life on our own. Instead, the Holy Spirit guides and comforts us in everything we do. Jannette 4

Men’s Breakfast is on the first Saturday of the month. Meet at the Royal Scot on Langrigg Road at 10am for a good breakfast and a good craic. On Saturday 2nd October, Dr Andrew Brittlebank (Consultant Psychiatrist & Associate Medical Director, Cumbria & Northumberland) will be leading a Men’s Health Breakfast. 18th October : St Luke the Evangelist – linking the sacred and the profane To St Luke, a Gentile, we owe the beautifully written Gospel of Luke, and the Book of Acts. He was a Greek physician, a disciple of St Paul, a companion on some of his missionary journeys, and an inspired writer. Luke’s gospel focuses on the compassion of Christ. His gospel contains some of the most moving parables, such as the Good Samaritan and Prodigal Son. This, with his emphasis on poverty, prayer and purity of heart, make up much of his appeal to the Gentles, for whom he wrote. Women figure more prominently in Luke’s gospel than any other: look out for the extended story of the Virgin Birth, and stories of Mary, Elizabeth, and the woman who was a sinner. In Acts, Luke is remarkably good as linking sacred and profane history, as sub- sequent archaeology has shown. A principal theme of his Acts is how the early Christians moved away from Jerusalem into the pagan world, and especially on to Rome. Luke is the patron saint of doctors, surgeons and artists (due to his picturesque style of writing). His symbol is an ox, sometimes explained by reference to the sacrifice in the Temple at the beginning of his Gospel. In England 28 ancient churches were dedicated to him. 5

11th October James the Deacon James the Deacon is the saint for any lay person who has stepped in to lead their church when the clergy are far away. In fact, an historian has called James the Deacon ‘the one heroic figure’ in the Roman mission to Northumbria. No wonder – in a time of political chaos, with the king murdered and even the bishop fleeing for safety, James the Deacon stood firm. It had begun when Pope Gregory the Great sent Paulinus, Bishop of York, to take Roman Christianity to Northumbria. James the Deacon, almost certainly an Italian, was among those who went with Paulinus. The mission began well, and Edwin the king of Northumbria was converted. Roman Christianity in Northumbria took root and began to grow. But then in 633 Edwin fell in battle with Penda, the ruthless pagan king of Mercia. A pagan backlash began. The queen and her son fled for Kent, with the bishop Paulinus going south with them. All that was left of Roman Christianity in Northumbria was James, now a solitary deacon. But James was made of stern stuff, and despite the danger from Penda, James stayed on at a village near Catterick, often risking his life as he cared for the Christians, and continued to preach the gospel. His success was discovered when the Northumbrian mission returned five to ten years later, and found an active Christian community still in Northumbria. James had been a faithful servant. After Penda died, and Christian rule was re-established in Northumbria, James turned to teaching music, especially Gregorian Chant, to the fledgling churches in the region. Bede praised him for his honour and integrity. James was present at the Synod of Whitby in 664, which met to discuss the differences between the Celtic Northumbrian Church of the North, and the Roman Church of the South. When James died sometime after 671, he was deeply mourned by the ordinary Christians of Northumbria, both Celtic and Roman. He had never deserted them. 7

Tp4c Foodbank Thank you to everyone for the Harvest donations, they are much appreciated. Now is the time to start putting away something for Christmas so that our foodbank partners will be able to receive a hamper. Anything you can think of to go in a Christmas hamper will be gratefully received. We have now also started a “Drop off, drop in” from about 9am on Thursdays so that help and advice can be available over a cuppa and a piece of toast! I can’t see the screen! It has been great to have lovely sunny days, but the projectors at St Barnabas find sunshine difficult to deal with and we need a couple of new/second hand projectors so that we can continue to see the services on the screen. Projectors cost around £350-£400 second hand. If you would like to contribute towards a couple of new projec- tors, please put your contribution in an envelope marked PROJECTOR and pop it on the plate on a Sunday or speak to Matt or Yvonne about other methods of donating.

All Hallows Eve – or Holy Evening 31st October Modern Halloween celebrations have their roots in pre-Christian times. In those long-ago days, on the last night of October, the Druid priests celebrated the Festival of Samhain, or ‘Summer’s End’. They lit great bonfires and performed magic rites to ward off the dark supernatural powers of oncoming winter. Today, Christians turn to prayer instead of charms to overcome the powers of darkness. And the deeper, true meaning of All Hallows’ Eve, should not be forgotten. As Christians, we all draw closer to Christ when we remember and give thanks for our loved ones and for others who have gone before us through the gates of death.

By the Revd Peter Crumpler, a Church of England priest in St Albans, Herts, and a former communications director for the C of E. Meeting the needs of older people These days there seems to be a day for everything, including the United Nations’ ‘International day for Older Persons’, which is observed on 1st October. So perhaps October is a good month to think about meeting the needs of older people in church. Many churches employ children’s workers or youth leaders – but how many have appointed people to minister specifically to the older people in their congregation and beyond? In St Albans, north of London, two Methodist churches have joined together to recruit an ‘Anna Chaplain’ to help meet the needs of seniors in local church congregations and beyond. The new role is part of a growing network of Anna Chaplains, named after the widow, Anna, who appears in Luke’s gospel as a good role model of a faithful older person. The development comes as charities that work with older people have published research which how badly the pandemic has impacted those aged 60 and above, and raised questions about how well they will ‘bounce back’ after Covid-19. Age UK has called on the Government to give the NHS and social care services extra resources to help older people make the best possible recovery. With coronavirus now hopefully in retreat in the UK, the charity has also appealed to the wider public to keep supporting the older people in their lives. It said: “The impact of the pandemic on the health and wellbeing of some older people in early 2021 is so demonstrably severe that it raises big questions over whether they will be able to ‘bounce back’.” Against this background, Maggie Dodd, the first Anna Chaplain in Hertford- shire, explained: “Our vision is that older people are cherished and supported within their church communities, and also beyond, in the wider community. “Often you have people who used to attend church, and they’ve become a little more frail and not able to attend or they’ve moved to a care home or sheltered housing, and they just lose touch with what’s going on. They’re not able to take themselves to church anymore.” The work of Anna Chaplains includes ministry in care homes and other settings where older people live or gather. At this time of year, some churches organise ‘holiday at home’ projects and activities for seniors in their area. Anna Chaplains are a ministry of Christian charity, BRF (Bible Reading Fellowship) who have a vision “to see an Anna Chaplain in every small and medium-sized community in the country, and for the Anna Chaplain name to become synonymous with spiritual care for older people.” 18

How should we read the Bible? (Bible Sunday is 24th October) There are three things to bear in mind when you pick up your Bible: First, approach it expectantly. The Bible is not just another book – it is the Word of God, given to us by God to help us and instruct us. The Psalmist declared, ‘Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path’ (Psalm 119:105). Therefore, as you open your Bible, pray that the Holy Spirit (who inspired the writers of the Bible) will illumine its meaning to you. Read it carefully, not just hurrying through it as you would a novel. Secondly, read your Bible systematically. Aim to read about three chapters a day: begin at Genesis and work through the Old Testament. Begin in Matthew and work through the New Testament; begin in Psalms and work through Psalms and Proverbs. Simply continue these three cycles, and it will ensure that your diet of Bible reading each day will be varied and include a bit of everything! Finally, read your Bible obediently. Be ready to obey the truth that God has for you in its pages. God gave the Bible to us ‘for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness’ (2 Timothy 3:16), and the Bible can change our lives as we read it and obey its teachings every day. 19

New research reveals significant contribution by cathedrals to local economies A new report has highlighted the hugely positive economic and social impact England’s cathedrals have on their cities. In 2019, England’s 42 Anglican cathedrals contributed £235m to their local economies. They provided 6,065 jobs, full time equivalent jobs and volunteering posts for 15,400 people who gave 906,000 hours of their time. They welcomed more than 14.6 million visits, 308,000 by schoolchildren for educational events, and 9.5m from tourists. In the same year, cathedrals hosted a rich programme of arts, music, heritage and culture – amounting to 9,580 events equivalent to two every three days – as well as providing the venues for film shoots such as The Crown, Doctor Who and Avengers: Endgame. The cathedrals have also run foodbanks, supported groups for the more vulnerable, the unemployed, and the homeless. They have helped outreach activities in schools, residential homes and hospitals, lunch clubs, parent and toddler groups, as well as community cafes. Also, over two-thirds of cathedrals are part of the A Rocha Eco Church programme, helping the Church of England achieve its carbon reduction targets by 2030. carlislecathedral.org.uk To the Son Most gracious Son, may your teaching dispel the darkness of ignorance in our mind, and may your commands be beacons of light showing us the path to peace. And as we walk on that path, may we find your footprints on the ground, that we may place our own feet where you have trodden. We believe that you will strengthen our limbs when they grow weary, and raise our spirits when they become heavy, because nothing gives you greater pleasure than watching us follow the way of salvation. We pray that you will always be our friend and our guide, and so bring us to your Father’s heavenly kingdom. A Prayer of Erasmus, 1469–1536 - most renowned scholar of his age. 20

4th October St. Francis - and the Life of Simplicity Just about the only thing most people know about Francis of Assisi is that he talked to the birds (see below) Church-goers also know the popular hymn based on his famous prayer, ‘Make me a channel of your Peace’, which was sung at the funeral of Princess Diana. However, Italy’s patron saint, whose feast day is this month (the 4th) was a more complex, and some would say controversial character. His life spanned the end of the twelfth and beginning of the thirteenth centuries. He was born into a very wealthy family, but after what he called his ‘conversion’ standing before a crucifix. He renounced all his possessions. In fact, he stripped himself of his of his wealthy garments in a public square in his home-town, Assisi. For the rest of his life he and his followers, including his feminine counterpart. St Claire longed, prayed and worked for a life of simplicity – a lifestyle without luxury or privileges. For the Franciscan brothers and the Poor Claires. This meant no private possessions at all. Francis saw that many poor people without these things, actually seemed to live happier and more fulfilling lives than the ambitious rich. He spoke of a simple life not shaped by money or power but by love and mutual concern. As his hymn says, ‘it is in giving of ourselves that we receive’. Of course, poverty; in our modern western world is seldom a matter of blissful simplicity, as present-day Franciscans recognise. For too many it is a matter of poor diet, over-crowded rooms, rough sleeping and unemployment. The call of today’s followers of Francis and Claire is that those who are better-off should ‘live more simply, so that others can simply live’. Christians follow a Master who said that he came with ‘good news for the poor’. They believe that many of us today can be that good news. Francis’ close rapport with the animal creation is also well known. The story of his preaching to the birds has always been a favourite scene from his life. He also tamed the wolf of Gubbio. This affinity emphasises his consideration for, and sense of identity with, all elements of the physical universe, as seen in his Canticle of the Sun. This makes him an apt patron of nature conservation. The 20th century witnessed a widespread revival of interest in Francis. Sadly, some films and books caricatured him as only a sentimental nature-lover or a hippie drop out from society. This ignores the real sternness of his character, and his all-pervasive love of God and identification with Christ’s sufferings, which alone make sense of his life. Two ancient, and many modern English churches are dedicated to him. 21

Nigel Beeton writes: Psalm 119, at 179 verses is not only the longest chapter of any kind in the Bible, and is longer than the books of Ruth, James, and Philippians! There is a story of a condemned prisoner who exercised his right to have a Psalm recited prior to his execution, chose Psalm 119, and received his pardon before the end of the Psalm! Almost every single verse mentions God’s Word, His Law, His Statutes, or His Ordinances. That’s how important it is to be familiar with the Word of God. Many of us neglect it at our peril, but many Christians spend longer in a day watching commercials than they do reading God’s Word… This poem is based on only one stanza, Nun, which begins at verse 105, and is one of the most familiar passages: Thy Word Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet And a light unto my way. Thy Word is right, and I will keep Thy Law from day to day. Thy Word will revive my weary soul Afflicted it was, and astray. Lift me O Lord, and make me whole By Thy side, O Lord, I will stay. Although the wicked lay a snare Thy ordinance makes me bold; Within Thy tenderness and care No devil can get a hold. Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet And a light unto my way. Thy Word is right, and I will keep Thy Law from day to day. (Bible Sunday is on October 24th) BH 22

Autumn Prayer Dear Loving, Father God, As the season changes and we enjoy the beautiful colours of autumn, there are other changes which we don’t enjoy. Changes we cannot control; changes and suffering in the world, beyond our comprehension; changes to our work routines, or health, or circumstances; changes which cause us anxiety and uncertainty. When everything seems to be falling around us like the autumn leaves, help us, Lord, to remember that you stand firm. You are our rock. You never change. You are always faithful, always with us, as we move into each new day and each new season. Thank you for loving us so much that you gave us Jesus, so that by putting our trust in Him, we can know the security of your love, for ever! In His name, we thank you, Sovereign Lord. Amen, By Daphne Kitching EDIN 23
