This month we celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. She is
the longest reigning monarch in British history. Up until recently
she attended church every week and still did a full week’s work at
the age of 96!
It is her commitment to serving God and the nation which stands
out in her life. Even before she became Queen, she made a
promise, which she has kept for over 75 years: ‘I declare before
you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be
devoted to your service’ (21st birthday broadcast, 21st April
1947).
What is the secret of the Queen’s consistency of character and
service? In 2002 she said this: “I know just how much I rely on my
faith to guide me through the good times and the bad. Each day
is a new beginning. I know that the only way to live my life is to try
to do what is right, to take the long view, to give of my best in all
that the day brings, and to put my trust in God.” These are wise
words from somebody who draws her strength from the Christian
Faith and can inspire all of us who want to make our lives count!
The Queen has been an example of joyful, wise, and generous
service on behalf of others all her life. Six months before her
coronation she asked the nation and Commonwealth to “pray that
God may give me wisdom and strength to carry out the solemn
promises I shall be making, and that I may faithfully serve Him
and you, all the days of my life.” Paul urges us to pray for all in
authority, “that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all
godliness and holiness.” (1 Timothy 2:2).
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Your Servant Elizabeth
Gracious God, we give You thanks for the reign of Your
servant Elizabeth our Queen, and for the example of
loving and faithful service which she has shown among us.
Help us to follow her example of dedication and to commit
our lives to You and to one another, through Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen.

✤ We continue to pray for all who have been and are
being affected by the Covid pandemic. We remember all
who have been bereaved because of this and those who
have long Covid. We pray for all, who have had their NHS
treatments been pushed back on account of emergency
measures, and those in education where it has been disrupted.
We ask for God’s strengthening Holy Spirit to be with us, and
God’s wisdom to guide us, through our days.
✤ We continue to pray for an end to hostilities in the Ukraine, so
that people might pick up their lives, and Ukraine can get back
to producing food for the world. We pray for Russia that the will
for peace would take precedence over the desire for war, and
the urge to turn back the clock. We also remember all other
parts of the world where there is no peace.
✤ For Afghanistan and the general abject level of poverty and the
relief of hunger; also for the position of women in that country.
We remember the relationships between countries in the
middle east. For the people of Myanmar and Ethiopia, and
pray too for the Uighar people of Western China. As we
remember the people of these lands, we pray for the Aid
agencies such as Christian Aid, Cafod, Unicef, Médecins Sans
Frontières and the Red Cross/Red Crescent, bringing hope
and relief to where it is most needed.
✤ We pray for our community of Fishponds, asking that our faith
communities of All Saints and St Marys would be like salt,
bringing extra and positive flavour to our surroundings, and
witnessing to the positive aspects of our faith here, so that
others might become more aware of the importance of
Christian faith locally and in world today.

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the beauty of the world you created, so
evident in this lovely month of June.
We bring before you, in prayer, those events going on in
the world which are so difficult to understand. We pray
for all your children who are suffering in any way,
especially those affected by war. Please, Lord, comfort
them, assure them of your presence – and deliver them
from evil.
May we appreciate each day which you have made.
Help us to rejoice and be glad in the gift of each new day
– and to trust you for all our tomorrows, knowing that in
you alone is our security.
In Jesus’ name. Amen

There is a church tradition of
reminding people to pray for those
about to be ordained by giving out
Ember Cards like the one I designed above. The image of the
Holy Spirit is a detail from a window depicting the baptism of
Christ at St.Luke's Ballymoyer, where I was baptised in 1965
when my dad was Rector there. I would like to share my
ordination story with you, as it will appear in the Ordination Order
of Service, as it speaks of that place where my faith began.

We are looking to fill two deputy warden roles, to complete the
team who can, with the direction of one of our wardens, or more
experienced deputies, to prepare the church for worship, week by
week, facilitate the running of the actual service, manage the
sound systems, keeping a general eye out to make sure that all is
well with the congregation, and to clear away at the end of the
service.
Full instructions and training will be given. It is anticipated that
you will need too, at least initially, participate in the rota about

So, if you are interested in this role or would like to know more
please speak to Elaine or Dave our church wardens, or Chris our
church secretary.
Thank you!
12th June Trinity Sunday,
Celebrating our God who is Three Persons
Trying to explain the doctrine of the Trinity has kept
many a theologian busy down the centuries. One
helpful picture is to imagine the sun shining in the sky.
The sun itself – way out there in space, and
unapproachable in its fiery majesty – is the Father. The
light that flows from it, which gives us life and illuminates all our
lives, is the Son. The heat that flows from it, and which gives us
all the energy to move and grow, is the Holy Spirit. You cannot
have the sun without its light and its heat. The light and the heat
are from the sun, are of the sun, and yet are also distinct in
themselves, with their own roles to play.
Genesis 1:1-2:
Judges 14:6:
John 1:1-3: Luke 24:49.
In other words, the sun eternally gives off light and heat, and
whenever we turn to its brilliant light, we find that warmth and life
are there as well.

went round to the side of the church where everyone has a
helping hand in making a Pslam 23 garden, laying a stream of
still water, making a path that leads into darkness, a table laid (for
the birds), a waterfall with a cup (for my cup runneth over) and a
house (for the bugs), dwell in the house of the Lord forever). This
activity was enjoyed by all, with the children especially giving a
helping hand. Finished with the hymn, yes! “ The Lord is my
Shepherd”, prayers followed, then into church for refreshments.

Last month we looked at the changing of colours in the church’s
vestments and altar cloths during March, April and May this year.
This month of June sees them changing again, but this time for
around 20 weeks.
We start the month still in the season of Easter; strictly
speaking, in the time after the Ascension. The first
Sunday in June is the feast of Pentecost. This was and
remains a Jewish Festival. At the time of Jesus, it was a
joyful celebration of the first fruits of the Harvest, which was why
all the apostles were gathered together in Jerusalem, as was
expected of all Jewish men.
As they gathered following Jesus’ Ascension, the Holy Spirit
came upon them. This is what Christians celebrate at Pentecost,
and therefore the colour is red. The following day the colour
changes to green, and remains green until the 30th of October,
the Feast of All Saints’ which will be white.
This gives us approximately 20 weeks of ‘green’ with the
occasional day in between of white or red to celebrate an apostle,
saint or a specific feast day.
So the question is ‘Why?’ Why so long?
This time is often referred to as ‘Ordinary’ time. So what is
‘ordinary’ about it? I don’t know about your life but mine tends to
go along fairly steady with just the odd up or down time. Most of
my days are ‘ordinary’.
In church lectionary terms this period of ‘X Sunday after
Pentecost’ follows one main gospel’s teachings and miracles of
Jesus. It’s almost like He gathers us together for a summer
school and takes us up a mountainside and teaches us there. It’s
a time for leaning and growth.

(Paul Hardingham continues this year-long series on the very foundations of our Christian
faith.) (Material taken from Parish Pump, web site for Church Magazines)
As we celebrate Pentecost this month, it’s appropriate to ask the
question: what does the Holy Spirit do in our lives? Everybody
who has committed their life to Christ possesses the Holy Spirit,
‘if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong
to Christ.’ (Romans 8:9). It is the Spirit who brings us new birth
into the family of God.
The Spirit assures us of God’s love and acceptance, despite our
fears, doubts or failures. As adopted children we can address
God as our father: “God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts,
the Spirit who calls out, ‘Abba, Father.’” (Galatians 4: 6). By using
the same word used by Jesus, we can grow in intimacy with our
Father and pray to Him, especially when we struggle to find the
right words.
The Holy Spirit is committed to producing a family likeness in
those who follow Christ. This Jesus likeness enables us to live as
Jesus would in our place, ie: work, family, time, interests etc. Paul
describes this as the fruit of the Spirit: ‘love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and selfcontrol.’(Galatians
5:22,23). He talks about fruit not fruits! We
can’t pick and choose, as they come as a total package to be
developed over a lifetime!
The Spirit is committed to producing new desires for God: reading
the Bible and praying, forgiving others, meeting with other
Christians and sharing our faith. He will also give us the
motivation to overcome wrong habits, attitudes or lifestyle in our
lives.
‘Let the church return to Pentecost, and Pentecost will return to
her. The Spirit of God cannot take possession of believers
beyond their capacity of receiving Him’ (Andrew Murray).

This year Her Majesty The Queen became the first British
Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee marking 70 years of
service to the people of the United Kingdom, the Realms and
the Commonwealth.
Celebrations will include The Queen’s Birthday Parade

parading soldiers, 200 horses and 400 musicians will come
together. Beginning at Buckingham Palace, the Parade will
move down The Mall to Horse Guard's Parade, joined by
Members of the Royal Family on horseback and in carriages.
The Parade will close with the traditional RAF fly-past, watched
by The Queen and Members of the Royal Family from the
Buckingham Palace balcony.

tips for a calm green space, by various
authors, Bible Society, £6.50
A full-colour book showcasing the splendid
Psalm 23 Garden, designed by Sarah
Eberle for Bible Society’s entry into last
year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Sarah
Eberle had previously won 17 gold medals at Chelsea and
Hampton Court Flower Shows, and her Psalm 23 Garden
won another gold medal as well as awards for Best Sanctuary
Garden and Best Construction Award. Psalm 23 is a beloved
psalm in the Bible, invoking images of rest and refreshment.
The first two verses of Psalm 23 are:
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
Room for God by various authors, Bible
Society, £3.99
This may help you find a way to connect
with God in every room of your house, as
well as outdoors. On a meditative tour of
your own home, you can try out a variety of
spiritual practices, listening to God,
reflecting on your concerns, and using
discernment in your decisions. There is a
double-page spread focusing on each room
in the house, and extra double-page
spreads on our love of pets, colours in the
home, and hospitality. The book also combines Bible texts,
prayers and meditations, creative activities and ideas to support
social action. It offers a range of suggestions, from ten-minute
challenges to deeper meditations.

edition), by the Rev Peter Walker, Lion
Hudson, £20
Following the chronology of Jesus’ life
and ministry, Peter Walker takes us from
Bethlehem to Nazareth to the desert as
we follow Jesus on His final journey from
Galilee to Jerusalem.
In each chapter particular attention is
given to what Jesus did in that location,
and to the authenticity of archaeological
and recorded evidence of later pilgrims and historians. The book
is richly illustrated, and uses maps, timelines, and feature boxes
to highlight important themes. All in all, it is a rich and absorbing
guide, and would be an ideal companion for travellers.
Come Holy Gift – prayer poems for the
Christian Year.
By Steven Shakespears, Canterbury Press,
£10.99
This collection offers scripture-inspired poems
for each of the major seasons of the Christian
year. It includes poems on Advent, Christmas,
Epiphany, Lent, Easter, Pentecost, and Ordinary
Time.
Wild Bible, Wild Church By Philip Eley, Kevin
Mayhew, £6.99
This book aims to transform your worship and
spirituality through Bible teaching on the natural
world. In the Bible, people connected with God in
the wild, Moses found God in a bush, Elijah found
Him in whisper. People’s first revelation of God
was through the natural world. The Bible starts
outside and ends outside. All the best-known stories in the
Bible take place outside. Jesus’s teaching takes place outside.
He points out the world around Him as He talks.

Well here we are half way through the year, as I am
always saying, time seems to fly by!
If you are celebrating the Queen’s Jubilee, have fun and enjoy,
but at the same time keep safe.
Hopefully you have read that the Fishponds Horticultural Show
is on in August, so you can get this date into your diaries.
Good to see that the Repair Cafe is back with us, if you do have
any items that need looking at, remember to come along early,
as there may be a long queue if you come later.
The deadline for the July issue will be Sunday 12th June, as
usual you can email me at anita@lavis.org.uk or hand your
article to me at a 10.30am service.
