Germany – The Churches of Bavaria
I have a passion for churches and cathedrals. Perhaps because they breathe
something out of this world, something heavenly, totally different from what we
experience in our day-to-day life; perhaps it is due to the romanticism attached to
it; perhaps because they convey something pertaining to common humanity;
surely also because they are visible manifestations of what man is capable of
through his intellect, mind and spirit: comforting spaces and majestic,
The churches found in Bavaria, the southern province of Germany, are splendid
examples surely not to be missed when visiting this beautiful region. I speak of
the churches of Ettal, Oberammergau and the Wieskirche – all within two hours
drive by car from one another.
The church in the small town of Ettal, near to Oberammergau, owes its
endowment and foundation in April 1330 to the Duke of Bavaria, also at that time
the Roman Emperor of Germany. The basic form of the church is a twelve-sided
Gothic structure, with flying buttresses. In the early 17th century there were
interior innovations with baroque decorations and furnishings. Due to the light
coming in through the large windows into the white and golden interior, one’s first
glance goes upwards to the walls and stucco merging into the marvellously
painted “heaven” in the dome, with the effect of having no ceiling. Reality thus
blends with the unreal, with the baroque intention to let the heavenly break into
From Ettal it is about 30 km. to Oberammergau – the town where the famous
Passion Play is performed every 10 years. The town itself is something to
experience, with beautiful panoramas painted on the walls of almost every
building . You will be able to buy exquisite woodwork items here, as well as
handmade linen at Käthe Wohlfahrt’s shop!
The church isn’t overwhelmingly large, but the interior decorated in white and
gold is breathtaking. A finely crafted chandelier is suspended from the dome high
above, whilst at the back of the church you will see a panoramic portrayal of the
crucifixion of Christ.
From here we drove to Füssen, with the view of visiting King Ludwig’s castles the
next day. But on the way we turned of to the Wieskirche (Wies Church). The
“Wies” is not situated in a town, but on the open meadows in a broad valley. This
is a pilgrimage church, built in honour of a wooden figure of the “Scourged
Saviour”, which was kept at the farm “Wieshof”. In 1738 a miracle reputedly took
place: it was noticed that some drops were formed on the face of the likeness,
taken to be tears. This was the beginning of a rapidly increasing pilgrimage
movement to the “Wies”.
This pilgrimage has remained alive up till today and has become a centre of a
pilgrimage of European dimension. Among the more than one million yearly
visitors from all over the world, you will also find people in silent prayer.
In the Wieskirche the art of rococo has reached a high point of excellence. A few
years ago this masterpiece was included in the UNESCO’s list of Cultural
Heritage Buildings, thus receiving international recognition. With all its apparent
lightness and grace this church is characterized by a profound spirituality and
defined by the greatness of the theological themes depicted inside.


GOD GIVES A WARNING CONCERNING ZIMBABWE'S FIRST FAMILY! PROPHESY GIVEN ON 3RD OF AUGUST 2013.
† In Jesus name I pray:
God continued to speak concerning the shake up of Zimbabwe and change of power today! Power must change Hands He says! As I was in the Spirit; I went into a vision and I saw that when Robert Mugabe is no longer in power, there will be great torture, humiliation and very hard times for his family and those that were close to him!
And the Lord God said to the people of Zimbabwe! Warn them! As the seat of power is vacated when that time comes, no man shall lay hand on those that were close to Mugabe nor his family! He said that this shall cause a curse to befall the nation! They are to be treated with respect and honor and they are to be taken care of in all their rights, protected when that times comes! The Lord said; Tell Zimbabwe I am God who was, is and shall come! I shall fulfill my Word in my due time BUT they must do as I say or my Hand shall move against them!
Those that are plotting against this family hear the Word of God! Power must change Hands but only by God's Hand! The time is coming in a disarray manner, in confusion, his strategists and planners expect it because of what they know but they do not know how or what to do with it! God's EYE is on your land! I leave it at that!


When the Methodist church general secretary Reverend Tevita Nawadra said that there would be no problems with the church’s Annual Conference this year the Fiji Police refused to comment. The police spokesman Rusiate Tudravu (who seems to be the de facto Commissioner) had no comment, even though the law is clear. There are currently no restrictions on meetings but Tudravu had to say “We will not comment on the issue as we need clarifications on some information before we can comment further.” In other words Tudravu has to await word from Khaiyum before he can say anything. They know very well that Khaiyum may plan to re-introduce the ban on meetings, even though you would think the Bill of Rights that we’ve been promised would guarantee freedom for a church to meet.

I heard something on the radio the other day that described in a different way how God affects our lives. The show was about people who have lost a loved one. This young wife talked in a moving and touching way about losing her husband. You could tell she loved him and missed him very much. She also showed much courage and strength.
She talked about her faith, their faith together, and how God was with them, and how he left “his finger prints” on their lives. Guess you can say he touched them in a way that left a lasting impression.
What she said left an impression on my heart as well. Like a “well,” I will draw from it when I need encouragement and strength.
May God bless her, her husband and their faith in God.

Three Colleges – The United Theological College, The Montreal Diocesan Theological College and The Presbyterian College, Montreal – are gathering May 7 to celebrate their respective Convocations and 100 years together as the Montreal School of Theology.
The Right Reverend Dr. Gary Paterson, Moderator of the United Church of Canada, will be an honoured guest of United Theological College as recipient of the Craig Chaplin Memorial Award, named for my brother who died in May, 2007.
Craig’s loved ones marvel that his Award, to honour the achievements, projects and ministries of openly LGBTQI persons, will be going to the spiritual leader of the Church less than a generation after the historic approval of LGBT ordination in the United Church of Canada. How thrilled Craig would be!
In a letter to UTC Principal Philip Joudrey, confirming the terms of reference for the Award, Craig wrote:
“…it is my intention and desire that this award be presented in recognition of the particular ministries of (LGBT) people both within the formal, organized structures of the Christian Church and without…choosing to honour those whose life’s work has been particularly distinguished in its clear embodiment of such central Gospel values as personal courage and integrity, life-affirming faith and spirituality, an unswerving commitment to social justice and a sustainable environment, and solidarity with those who are poor or marginalized.”
Additional Convocation honours will be bestowed by the other participating colleges and the Convocation Address will be delivered by renowned United Church of Canada theologian Douglas Hall.
To be held at the Church of St. Andrew and St. Paul, on the edge of the McGill University neighbourhood, this will be the first joint Convocation of the three Colleges – and marking 100 years of The Montreal School of Theology is an occasion for a grand celebration!


Imagine enjoying the warmth of rich hot cocoa by the fire while the sound of carols fill the air. You catch a glimpse of your favorite Temple Christmas Ornament hanging in the midst of twinkling lights on your fresh-cut Christmas tree. This elegant ornament reminds you to hold your loved ones close and to return to the temple often because families can be together forever.
Start a new family Christmas tradition of hanging Temple Christmas Ornaments for every temple you have visited, and watch as you come together celebrating Christ, the center of this holiday, and that through Him and His house, families are eternal.
Each Temple Christmas Ornament includes an ornament hole or ring and a hook or string to hang from. It also includes an inscription on the base with the name and number. Make sure your ornament is an extra special gift by adding a custom inscription.
Choose your size between small (2 to 4 inch base) and medium (3 to 5 inch base).

“In kene Yesu, in kene.” This verse is sung over and over as people close their eyes and raise their hands to the skies. “Only you, Jesus, only you.” Its simple truth nearly always brings about strong emotions, as tears slowly fall down the girls’ faces.
For many of the people here for many years, God truly is all they had. They did not have food, safety, freedom, their families, or even a desire to live at times, but they still had God and that gave them the strength to survive even the most brutal situations. The stories arise at unexpected times…just sitting under the mango tree in the evenings or drinking tea, my coworkers share memories of the past. Little things remind them. For one coworker, it was her feet. She just started laughing, looking down at her feet. I asked her what she was laughing about and she said she remembered in the days of the war, she would purposely walk around without shoes to make her feet extra tough in case she had to run a very far distance. She would bleed a lot at first, but eventually it was as if nothing could break them.
She told of a time when she was stopped by the rebel army on the road while she was trying to get food for her children. She was the first person in Uganda to have healthy, living triplets, and their father had been abducted and killed while she was pregnant with them. She wanted to die then but knew she had to live for the children to survive. She became famous because of the triplets and had her picture taken for the newspaper. So when the soldiers stopped her they screamed in her face telling her how they were going to kill her. She shook uncontrollably and her clothes were soaking wet from the fear. They pointed the gun at her as she put the cross from her rosary in her mouth and prayed in her head that God would take care of her children when she was dead. As she finished her last prayer and braced herself for the shot, a commander came over and started screaming at the soldier to put his gun down. “What is the matter with you?! Do you know who this is?” he said. He told them she was the woman who delivered triplets—“the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.” If they killed her, how would those special ones survive? They told her to run away but she was even afraid to move. They promised they would not shoot her as she ran into the bush.
She ran for miles and then came face to face with more soldiers, this time from the UPDF, the Ugandan government soldiers, who treated the innocent people no better than the rebels did at times. They were equally feared, even though their purpose was to protect the people. She looked above in the sky and noticed no birds were flying overhead—a bad sign. Sure enough, she was caught in the crossfire between the two groups and was sent running and dodging bullets. She saw others fall so she stopped where she was at made a sign of the cross in front of her and behind her. . A single bullet never touched her in the 20 minutes of crossfire. She just stood still and prayed out loud…
Christ be with me,
Christ be beside me,
Christ be before me,
Christ be behind me,
Christ be at my right hand,
Christ be at my left hand,
Christ be with me everywhere I go,
Christ be my friend for ever and ever. Amen.
When the shots became less, she ran away. Hours later, she made it town to give her boys some food and start her dangerous walk back to the village. If she was caught staying in town and they saw her there, they would kill her because they would think she was lying to them and no one from the village was supposed to escape from the village.
As she told her story, girls and coworkers laughed. One told of watching people and vehicles get blown up by the land minds, body parts flying in the air. Even when another coworker spoke of the more brutal acts such as the cutting off of lips, ears, limbs, padlocking lips shut, etc. they just laughed uncomfortably. I was baffled that they could react this way to such horrible stories, but they said they had to laugh or else they would always be sad. One said, “So many people died. If we mourned for all of them then we too would die of sadness.”
Despite the horrific struggles, most people have incredible faith in God. When asked why most say, “I’m alive, aren’t I? Then it is only because of God.” In other parts of the world people do not suffer like this yet they struggle to believe in God. They think they don’t need God; they have enough other material things and man-made systems that keep them safe. The people here don’t have much, but at least they know they have God.
I have been so humbled by the Acholi people’s resilience, joy and especially their capacity to forgive and love again in spite of the pain and suffering. As one Ugandan friend said, “when you do not forgive, you are only hurting yourself; you are prolonging the pain and you are teaching your children not to forgive also. Hate breeds more hate, but love is stronger than all of that….love and God.”

I just realized that on our last post we had forgotten to add our latest update video! Below is the link:
Thank you all for following along on this crazy, wonderful journey that the Lord has put us on!
We update our Facebook group page “The Young’s Journey to Haiti” weekly with pictures, prayer requests and videos of our life here- please join us there for more opportunities to connect!
We have been back in Haiti for 6 days and are working on finding our ‘normal’ again. The weather is cooler as it is rainy season and we are thankful for a break from the sweltering heat!
Our dog, Clive, made the trip back with us this time and we are all loving having him with us, feels like another level of home now.
Our hearts are full and we are excited to move forward with the next steps of ministry that God has laid on our hearts to pursue. Pray for us that we would be bold, courageous and not loose heart.
Psalm 33:22 ” Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you.”
Dearest Young Family,
Our hearts are overjoyed of how our Jehovah-Jireh has provided not only in making a way to your physically work in Haiti but by providing spiritual work that you have prayed and prepared for. May El-Elyon be pleased with your offering of praise unto His glory.
In His (Adonai-Jehovah) hand with you.

The face of God is everywhere and anywhere. It’s your face, my face, the face of the taxi driver, the trucker, the deli manager, the waitress, the nurse, the priest, the realtor, and even the little child playing on the sidewalk. Each person you see is a part of God, so recognize and appreciate that God presence in everyone, regardless of his physical appearance.
De-emphasize the superficial and emphasize the spiritual in each human heart, even though it may seem difficult at first. Look for the divine spark in each person’s eyes, as the eyes are the windows of the soul. Embrace the idioms and idiosyncrasies in all races and cultures. Bless each person as God blesses you now with a smile, a kind word, and a loving gesture. Compassion and understanding will radiate to others as you reflect God’s unconditional love unto others.
Now you become God’s beloved. God, as love, is always giving of itself to its beloved. With open mind, heart and soul, allow this good into your life… here and now. God is the infinite source of all that is. It’s every face in every race. God is all that is and all that will ever be.
By: George Withers


A person can get saved without going to church? Since that is true why would a person subject themselves to the problems associated with those who call themselves the church?
It is true that you do not have to go to church to get saved. God indeed will save anyone anywhere if they place their faith in him and ask him into their lives. God will and does love us just like we are. But he also loves us too much to leave us that way. God intends on working from the inside out. Paul, in writing to the church called Philippians said, in chapter two that we were to “…work out your (our) own salvation with fear and trembling…” because God was in us “…to help you (us) want to do and be able to do what pleases God.”(NCV) What God expects is that we learn to govern our behaviour so that we display a lifestyle and demeanour that is pleasing to him. And that is developed in and through our relationship with others in the local church. If we put our faith in Jesus Christ and that is all then all we have done is give mental assent and nothing more.
We know from scripture that it pleases God for those of us who have surrendered our lives to him to go to church. God said in Hebrews chapter ten that we were not to “…stay away from the church meetings” but to “… help each other to show love and do good deeds”(NCV). And according to second Corinthians chapter five “Our only goal is to please God…”(NCV). Hebrews chapter eleven tells us that “…without faith it is impossible to please Him…”(NKJV). So if I am to please God it will take faith. And that faith requires works that can only be found in relationship with others in a church of the same faith.
The truth is that Jesus is coming for his church one day and when he comes he will be looking for that faith to be displayed from those who call themselves believers (Luke 18:8). The faith he is looking for is a Christ centered life from those who profess to be saved. Our life is to become an extension of what God is working in us and should influence both, the world around us and the church we serve.

According to Augustine's own overview of his development (Book 1, chapter 9, section 5). The moral predicament for mankind thus has its roots in a metaphysical malaise. Augustine does not deny the contorted and paradoxical nature of his description of the "moral" life of the individual.
Rather he affirms precisely these difficulties as the. Pope: Fraternal Correction Is Essential to Christian Life Benedict quotes St. Augustine while discussing how to charitably correct the behavior of those. Grounded in Christian revelation and drawing heavily on ancient philosophical enquiry, Augustine presents a moral theory and applied ethic in In Iohannis evangelium tractatus and In epistulam Iohannis ad Parthos tractatus which acknowledges that man's pursuit of happiness through participation in God is frustrated by sin and can be realised only with the help of an appropriate.
AUGUSTINE ON THE DANGERS OF FRIENDSHIP The philosophers of antiquity had much to say about the place of friendship in the good life and its role in helping us live virtuously.
Augustine is unusual in giving substantial attention to the dangers of friendship and its potential to serve as an obstacle (rather than an aid) to by: 1. moral thought comes closer to the eudaimonistic virtue ethics of the classical Western tradition than to the ethics of duty and law associated with Christianity in the modern period.
But even though Augustine addresses many of the same problems that pagan philosophers do, he often defends very different Size: KB. problem of evil in Augustine’s Confessions. This analysis will be confined to Books 1 through 9 since those books in the work contain the narrative of his journey to the Christian faith and the results of his conversion.

Man's attaining right relationship with God - as Aristotle's ethics is focused on man exercising his distinctively rational purpose, as Epicurus' ethics is focused on pleasure, as Epictetus's ethics is focused on doing one's duty within the limits set by what one can and cannot control, the centerpiece of Augustine's ethics is the individual person's attaining correct relationship with God.
Pope stresses need for ‘fraternal correction’ in Christian life St. Augustine also stressed that any subsequent fraternal correction has to be animated by love and not revenge insisting.
As Paul says, “All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work (2 Tim ).” Paul and Augustine are making the same point: the truths of the scriptures are meant to be lived out.
The most important voice in political thought throughout the Middle Ages, influencing even St. Aquinas, was that of St. Augustine.

Now we are at the same level of decadence, partly as a result of the misuse of the mass media which are not evil in themselves and partly because of Western consumerism and materialism, which have poisoned our society.
This is complicated and I cannot explain it all in this little and immediately poorly written review. The devil is more hands on than before?
I encourage all who doubt me to read this book, as well as several other great books on this topic, and then let’s talk. ModenaEmiliaItaly.
Gabriele Amorth – Wikipedia
To me the chapter from a viewpoint of a formerly possessed person was absolutely indistinguishable from amofth PoV of a mental health patient.
Sometimes it will work but you will still need a doctor to fix the damage the demon did in the meantime. Amorth’s book is a significant contribution in this direction. Efficacious prayers, prayers that had been in existence for twelve centuries, were suppressed and replaced by new ineffective prayers.
We know that too. Interesting read – but mainly aimed at the priestly audience.
Amorth has claimed that an Italian schoolgirl who went missing in Rome inwas kidnapped for sex parties by a gang involving Vatican police and foreign diplomats. We do not need to give the devil greater power than he already possesses. Amorth’s book is powerful indeed; it serves as a reminder or warning? We learn little about him, but a great deal about his theology. Very informative I think he achieved his objective from the book.
But you probably would avoid anything Christian based as well. There are some pretty fascinating cases that Amorth touches on, hiss the victim possesses superhuman strength, is totally immovable, or is a young child that provides the priest with some eerily profound answers to questions.
The books include references to official Roman Catholic teachings on demonology while the main emphasis is on Amorth’s experience as an exorcist.
For those of you looking for the Roman Rituals, you will not find them in this book, only Italian Roman Catholic priest and the senior exorcist of the Diocese of Rome. Any such person must be highly regarded for his prayer life, faith, acts of charity and judgment. By seeing accounts of the tangible jis of witchcraft, in a weird way, it strengthens your faith in the sacraments, in that these aren’t just empty rituals that are being performed, there is a deep, substantial impact on the participants.
Edward Peters, a telos of canon law, finds Amorth’s claim to have personally performed exorcisms over 90 years “astounding”. The Catholic Church may teells a particular target of his, but he takes victims where he finds them.
It is a matter of fact presentation of the reality of the spiritual realm by a man who touched it without fear every day. Tels vision, naturally parallels the book of Job, with the Church being in the place of Job. What Were the Crusades? Amorth tells us about his personal confrontations with the devil on hundreds of occasions. Oct 07, Annabelle Higgins rated it it was ok.
An Exorcist Tells His Story
Amorth was also one of the voices that made public warnings to parents about J. The Church’s Leading Exorcist”. No other book today so stor and concisely discusses the topic of exorcism. Again, this may not be unexpected for a priest, but it would help his case to show just a touch more skepticism. Paul where he was ordained a priest in Happy are You Poor. Witnessing “the Vatican Exorcist” at Work”. First of all, you are expected to take it as read that, sometimes, people have problems which are caused by demons.
Amorth doesn’t mince words when he describes not only successful exorcisms, but also failures and terrible mistakes that are made. Italy is a country and culture where intellectual and cultural achievement is admired: This is a terrifying book – not because it sets out any convincing evidence of demonic activity it doesn’t!
It was an easy and pleasant read. What I mean by “Exorcism ” is that Fr. Second, amoth one is a professional exorcist, one may indeed see everything in light of that profession, and so it is not surprising that Fr.
He specifically describes how to distinguish each apart. The Church needs to heal itself before it can cast the devil out of vabriele again. I frankly think despite the author’s claims the book contains many exaggerations. The devil has been granted enlarged power in the world by the manner in which he is ignored and God is denied.


Mt. Sterling Baptist Church was one of the first churches organized by the Baptists in 1796 in Mt. Sterling, Kentucky, and grew to a sizable congregation before relocating to the suburbs in 2000.1
The Mt. Sterling Baptist Church was located near the site of today’s Mary Chiles Hospital and built of round logs, but was demolished several years later in favor of a brick structure, which was also torn down around 1830. The demolished material was used in the construction of nearby Fort Mason.
A new brick building was completed at a cost of $5,200 in July 1871.1 In 1914, under the leadership of Reverend J.S. Wilson, the congregation voted upon that a more spacious church was needed. The congregation had few funds towards a new building and with the membership being quite small, they purchased the residence of the late Mrs. W. F. Hibbler on the corner of High Street and Howard Avenue and renovated the property into a church at a cost of $40,000. Additional monies were saved and a new facility was built at the corner of North Bank and West High streets in 1916.1
In 2000, Mt. Sterling Baptist relocated to a larger, suburban facility. A church group from the nearby city of Winchester purchased the property in 2005 and began renovations but was overwhelmed by the amount of work needed and abandoned the project.2 In August 2007, the Baptist Worship Center purchased former church and began hosting services.

The main purpose of ONENIGHT is to worship Jesus. That's it. And because of this, we choose to mention no other name. Exalting Jesus and celebrating His victory for us at the cross is our primary vision.
With that in mind, we absolutely believe that God uses this gathering to inspire and mobilize us as well as form a stronger foundation of trust across the body of Christ in our city. We also take the opportunity to pray together for each other and for our city, knowing that our prayers are powerful and transformative. It is a visible expression of unity between denominations, ethnicities, and generations: An opportunity to worship as ONE body and experience a foretaste of what the apostle John described in Revelation 7:9-10 of a great multitude before the throne worshiping the Lamb of God.
ONENIGHT Monroe is organized by members of nearly 20 churches from across Monroe County.
Our statement of faith.
Our vision and values.


The second film in Austrian director Ulrich Seidl's trilogy about three related women at crossroads in their lives, Paradise: Faith examines a fanatically devout Catholic reunited with her Muslim husband, and the consequences of her actions.
Running Time: 113 min. Director: Ulrich Seidl Cast: Maria Hofstatter, Nabil Saleh
Following Paradise: Love, which is also included in this year’s Festival, Paradise: Faith focuses on Anna Maria, an X-ray technician, and devout catholic who belongs to an Opus Dei-like sect of the church. Anna Maria regularly spends her free time and vacation doing missionary work. But conflict arises when, after two years of absence, her husband, an Egyptian Muslim, returns home confined to a wheelchair. Forced to live together again, Anna Maria must now weigh her religious devotion against her love and her marriage. Paradise: Faith is an incredibly ambitious film featuring both religious and sexual imagery that will challenge and reward viewers with some very memorable moments and thought-provoking ideas.

It’s May, the 1st and we slowly prepare for Easter. We bought some dill, parsley and lovage to use them in our special dishes. Added to the end of any preparation, they offer extra freshness. Make sure you stay near those days, because I will come with interesting new posts.
I discovered yesterday that some of you are celebrating Easter. Now I can completely understand why, in the last period, I saw so many subject-related posts.

Songs of Love
After the resurrected Son returned to heaven and offered himself to the Father as a sacrifice for our sins, the Father shared His spirit, His kind of life, with those on earth who loved and believed in His Son.
In the millennia before Pentecost, God granted certain individuals a taste of His kind of life, but He never shared it with them. If He had done that, those individuals would have been completely transformed into new and holy creatures, but the Father was reserving for His beloved, hidden Son the honor of delivering humans from their sinful nature.
There is coming a time when the children of God will be revealed for who they are. Until then, however, the existence on earth of a race of holy creatures will remain as unbelievable to this world as was the existence of the Son when that revelation was made. “The reason the world doesn’t know you,” John wrote, “is because it didn’t know him”.


Good Ole Gospel Cruise
Thank you to all my fans, family and friends for joining Hearts of Grace
on our gospel cruises over the past 7 years!
Although Hearts of Grace will continue in the ministry,
Good Ole Gospel Cruise will no longer set sail annually
offering gospel music at sea.
The global shutdown on travel and stay-at-home recommendations have made making plans
for a future cruise impossible. Also, it is growing more and more difficult to get the cruise industry
to cooperate with us and so we have decided to focus on other areas of our ministry.
God bless you all and take care. Stay safe.

On Tuesday 27th November, St Joseph's pupils were joined by family and friends of Mrs Norris to celebrate the life of their teacher and friend.
They read and shared their memories of her inspiration, talents, lessons and musical skills.
They sang and prayed.
They smiled and cried.
It was a wonderful tribute to a wonderful person.
The new Bishop of Wrexham Diocese, Bishop Peter, visited our school on Tuesday 20th November. He joined us for our assembly on the theme of 'Knitting together as a community'. From Reception to Year 6, pupils sang, read, spoke and showed their work, very sensibly.
Afterwards the Bishop introduced himself to the children and explained the significance of his clothing and crook (crozier). He asked lots of questions, which were answered impressively by all ages, and then he listened to their questions and thoughts.
This was a lovely afternoon.
Thank you to everybody who supported our efforts for Children in Need. Your red and yellow clothing raised £211.
Also, Year 6 girls raised £81 for Birmingham Children's Hospital, where one of them was treated as a very poorly child. Their cake stall sold out quickly and it was wonderful to see that those who were unable to buy cakes, donated their money anyway.
Well done everybody.


The perception of Pope Francis has remained a positive one ever since his appointment at the Catholic Church 2 ½ years ago. The humble, Argentine-born man has spoken on numerous issues as wide as economic inequality, climate change and immigration and has become loved by millions of people worldwide. However, his views on abortion, gay rights, and divorce have not been perceived positively among all Christians and many Archbishops in US stand in strict opposition. Many say that although his easy going, merciful personality has been pivotal in winning the hearts of many people, his moderate approach is too lenient and is at crossroads with many of the traditional teachings of Christianity. In his upcoming 5 ½ day tour of three cities within the United States, Pope Francis is expected to find a divided audience among his Christian followers with regards to his mild approach to homosexuality. The Pope’s choice of words ‘Who am I to judge’ in reference to gay Catholic priests, was received with enormous joy from families with gay children. The Pope has expressed the reality that many Christians will simply ignore or disagree with his views and is willing to discuss these issues in more detail. The Pope’s approach to Christian teachings have been viewed as concentrating less on sin and instead more on what can be made right.
This merciful approach to the people has been described as ‘the Francis effect’, which is considered to be important for promoting a more welcoming Catholicism. Commenting on the Pope’s approach, John Gehring who is the Catholic Program Director of charity organization ‘Faith in Public’ has said that: “Pope Francis doesn’t want the church to be a fortress walling people out, but, in his words, a field hospital for the wounded. He offers a unique opportunity for the American hierarchy to build a more welcoming, healing church.” According to survey from Pew Research Center conducted 2 years ago highlighted that more than half of US Catholics deemed gay marriage as acceptable while those who perceived it as a sin accounted only for a third of the respondents. Issues related to birth control and abortion were met with more mixed results. Several surveys conducted through 2011 to 2013 found that around a half of white US Catholics believed that abortion should be legalized in all cases while two fifths of respondents viewed otherwise. A survey conducted right after the election of Francis found that nearly three quarters of respondents said that the church should allow birth control. More importantly, the survey also showed that approximately 80% of the respondents viewed Pope Francis in a highly favorable manner while only less than 5% of the respondents viewed him unfavorably. In summary, Pope Francis is viewed with tremendous respect for his loving and compassionate personality. However, considering the opposition of Christian leaders in the US, only time will tell how opinions on controversial matters such as gay marriage, abortion and birth control will resurface in the future.

The Iglesia Luterana Agustina de Guatemala (Augustinian Lutheran Church of Guatemala) was founded in 1991 by Padre Horacio Castillo and his family. The members come from the margins of the Guatemalan society, people of few resources and are predominantly indigenous.
Guatemala suffered through a 36 year internal war. This war ended in 1996 with the signing of the peace accords. Padre Horacio Castillo helped write and later was among those who signed the peace accords.
The first churches of the ILAG were formed in Guatemala City among the internally displaced, those who fled into the City during the war, who were (and still are) living in the ravines of the City. The ILAG also operates two elementary schools which serve children and families in these marginalized areas of the City.
As refuges began to return from Mexico, they contacted Padre Horacio as they had known him from his visits to some of the camps. Through these contacts the ILAG grew in the rural areas of the country among the resettled refuges.
The ILAG continues to grow each year by a few mission sites and churches as communities hear that the ILAG walks with people delivering the gospel freely to all people and visits the communities regularly.
The philosophy of the ILAG is to provide pastoral accompaniment and holistic development. The center of the ILAG is Christ and from this center we seek to provide for all aspects of the life of our members and their communities - the spiritual, physical, emotional and material.
For a timeline of the history of Guatemala, click here.
The church has about 3,000 members in nearly 20 congregations spread throughout Guatemala. ILAG also operates two elementary schools in Guatemala City.

Grammy-nominated Rev. Wright was critically injured in a car crash that killed co-pastor Betty Wright and their 14-year-old grandson. Rev. Wright, 61 is in critical condition.
Along with the N.Y. Fellowship Mass Choir, Timothy Wright was nominated for a Grammy award for best traditional soul gospel album for 1994's "Come Thou Almighty King." He has released more than a dozen gospel recordings, including "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus," which came out last year. The Wrights, who have five sons, were returning from a Church of God in Christ conference in Detroit when their vehicle was struck Friday, said Leroy Johnson, a trustee at Grace Tabernacle. Their grandson D.J. Wright died the next night, according to a nursing supervisor at a hospital in Danville, Pa.
The crash also killed 44-year-old Lewisburg, Pa., resident John Pick, who drove the wrong way on eastbound Interstate 80 into the Wrights' vehicle, police said. The crash was being investigated.
--Please keep Rev. Wright in your prayers.


muck Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 A friend of mine reminded me that everyone, regardless of political persuasion or spiritual reference point, should be praying for Obama that he makes wise decisions in leading our country. Then, he left me with the Bible verse that he was meditating on while he was praying for Obama. Psalm 109:8 So, whether or not this verse resonates with you, or you have something else you'd like to meditate on, or if you're even a praying person or not, I think that this is a pretty good idea.

John Walter Bradley
GLASGOW — John Walter Bradley, 75, of Glasgow, passed away Feb. 23, 2013.
John was preceded in death by his parents, Betty Emmett and Preston Bradley; brothers, Raymond Hagan and George Bradley; and sisters, Betty Glass, Sally Logsdon and Martha Pedigo.
John is survived by his brothers, William “Jake” Bradley, Junior Hagan, Laymand Hagan; and sisters, Velma “Luverne” Logsdon, Wilma Pedigo and Mary Hamilton.
Born in Clay County, Tenn., on July 1, 1937, John loved many things during his time here: his home, guitars, singing, fishing, operating a ham radio, bicycling and boxing, just to name a few.
The most dominate indicators of the kind of person John was, weren’t those things though. John loved people. His earthly family, prayer group, church family and children held especially large pieces of his heart. John is and will continue to be remembered by those whose lives he blessed “as the most thankful man I’ve ever known.” John loved his Lord and Savior Jesus and no doubt will be quoted for generations to come with his simple every day testimony, “most of all Father, I just thank You for saving my soul.”
Visitation for John will take place at Columbia Avenue Church of Christ, Feb. 26, 2013, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. with the funeral service directly following at 1 p.m. A.F. Crow & Son Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
Kevin Lee Grider
HARDYVILLE — Kevin Lee Grider, 54, of Hardyville, died Saturday, Feb. 23, 2013, at the University of Kentucky Hospital.
A native of Chicago, he was a son of Kenneth Lee Grider, of Chicago and the late Burdetta Riley Grider. He was a self-employed painter and a member of the Horse Cave Methodist Church.
In addition to his father, he is survived by his wife, Sharon Humphrey Grider; four children, Kelly Grider and Kenneth Grider, both at home, Jacob Mesker and fiancée Amanda Clark, of Cave City, Jody Mesker Dean and husband Robert, of Hardyville; seven grandchildren, Arianna Scott, Brooklyn Mesker, Alexis Wells Mesker, Benson Dean, Samson Mesker, Landon Gauge Clark, and Kayden Clark; one brother, Chris Grider of Chicago; one sister, Liz Grider Staneck (Mike) of Palos Hills, Ill.; and three nephews, Jake Grider, Vincent Grider, and Tommy Staneck.
Funeral services will be 2 p.m. Wednesday at Hatcher & Saddler Funeral Home with burial in Hiseville Cemetery. Friends may call after 2 p.m. Tuesday at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to help defray funeral expenses.


A wealthy industrialist’s estate chapel with an unusual twist. It was built by George Frederick Muntz following his purchase of Umberslade Park. Muntz was a Baptist convert and placed the church between his house and the village to attract further converts to the Baptist cause.
Umberslade Baptist Church (originally called Christ Church Umbersalde) dates from 1877. It is now the sole survivor among several chapels associated with the rise of Birmingham Nonconformity. Umberslade was founded and paid for by George Frederick Muntz, a successful industrialist of German origin, and a zealous Baptist convert. Having become owner of Umberslade Hall, the church was an estate church. Sadly, today the M40 motorway separates the Hall from the chapel. The nearby tall obelisk was also conceived as a park monument.
Umberslade Baptist Church is the last surviving major chapel of the Birmingham architect, George Ingall (1868–1910). Ingall deployed the Decorated Gothic style, enriching the church with pinnacles, finials, buttresses, and a slender tower and spire, in winter visible from the motorway. The church is constructed in a grey freestone. Inside, the timber furnishings are largely intact and include a large Gothic central pulpit. In front of it is an open baptistry for total immersion baptisms, finished in marble.
Many of the benches retain their gas lamps. The stained glass is geometric and the memorial to the founder inside the church is is cast in ‘Muntz metal’, an alloy G. F. Muntz patented to great commercial success as it repelled barnacles and weed and was used to clad the wooden hulls of tea clippers and merchant ships. When restored in recent years the hull of the most famous tea clipper of them all, the Cutty Sark, was again covered in Muntz metal as it was in the vessel’s heyday. G F Muntz’s grave is in the burial ground.
Nearby is the wooden building used as the temporary church while the stone one was being built and later as a school room until well into the twentieth century. This too is now listed as is the war memorial in the burial ground.
When elderly and bed-ridden G F Muntz had a landline installed so that he could listen to services in the church by loudspeaker in his bedroom at the Hall.
Historic Chapels Trust acquired the building after a long period of neglect once the Baptists had left. The first phase of restoration was achieved with generous support of Historic England and the Heritage Lottery Fund.
This secured the most crumbled stonework and saw the leaking roof completely re-slated. There is much yet to do, however. The schoolroom in the detached wooden building and vestry and committee rooms at the end of the church need extensive repair.
An active band of volunteers, the Friends of Umberslade Baptist Church, maintain the large burial ground and open the church to the public regularly. For details of their working parties and for more on the history of this site visit their facebook page.
There is parking at the foot of the access track from Spring Lane to the chapel. There is a large sign to show the entrance. Unless prior arrangements have been made please park by the locked gate and walk to the chapel. Three public footpaths pass through the burial ground and by the church. The nearest bus services are in Hockley Heath (half a mile) and the nearest train station is Dorridge.
Packwood House is an Elizabethan Mansion with extensive gardens and famous topiary, just 2 mils from the Church.
The Millennium Way Long Distance Path passes within one mile of the church and footpaths allow a diversion via the church and its burial ground – and a tall obelisk, part of the park landscaping.
The chapel is normally locked. For Open Days or to arrange a group visit please go to the Umberslade facebook page.
The chapel does not yet have facilities so is not available for hire. We have plans to convert the wooden building and vestry block into offices for lease to help defray the costs of the site. We are seeking potential commercial partners to help us realise this vision.
Burial plots are available at Umberslade, you can find more details here.
