April 2017 - St Mary`s Church Kidwelly

Pastoral letter
April has a vital place in the Christian Calendar.
Dear Friends,
You may, or may not be aware, but I am very interested in Celtic Christian
Spirituality and the Ionian Tradition.
On 12th of April 664 AD the Synod of Whitby was held. Our information about
the event is based on the writings of Stephen of Ripon perhaps 50 years later
and those of Bede in 731AD. It is thought that the venue was St Hilda’s
monastery at Whitby , or possibly Strenshall near York.
Two matters of Church doctrine were discussed at the synod: the lesser was the
correct tonsure for monks; but of far greater importance was the timing of the
great Christian festival of Easter.
In Northumbria at that time two Church traditions were in competition: that of
Rome and Iona.
The argument of the Ionian Christian leaders had been weakened by other parts
of the Irish/Celtic Church following the Roman timing of Easter. Another
problem for the Celtic Christians was that they had been expelled from the
monastery of Ripon , by order of Wilfrid, who was the main spokesperson for
Rome at the Whitby gathering.
Edwin of Northumbria had converted to Christianity under the influence of
missionaries sent from Rome by Pope Gregory the Great and thus had
established Roman practice in his realm. However, following his death and a
year of political instability, Oswald of Northumbria gained the throne. He had
learned Christian practice from the monks of Iona during his stay there (while a
political exile in his youth), and had encouraged Ionian missionaries to further
the Christianization of Northumbria, especially the famous Bishop Aidan.
The proper date of the celebration of the most significant Christian feast had
already resulted in visible disunity in the Northumbrian court: Queen Eanfled of
Bernicia and her court observed Easter on a different day than did King Oswiu.
While one royal faction was celebrating Easter, the other would still be fasting
during Lent. Nonetheless, the disunity did not result in problems as long as the
well-respected Aidan was alive. After his death, his successor Finan, found
himself challenged by a monk named Ronan, an Irishman who had been trained
in Rome and who wished to see the Roman Easter established. It was only in
the time of Colmán, the third Ionian monk elected Bishop of Northumbria, that
the conflict required royal attention and resolution.
Each side laid its case before the king. Bishop Colman of Lindisfarne led the
Irish faction, while the Roman point of view was put forward by Wilfrid, abbot
of Ripon. The two sides claimed authority from the Apostle John and from St
Peter respectively. After a long and learned debate, Oswiu suddenly intervened
with a question: ‘Who’, he asked, ‘is the gatekeeper of heaven?’ ‘St Peter’,
replied the assembled clerics. Then Oswiu pronounced, apparently with a smile:
“Then, I tell you … I shall not contradict him. I shall obey his commands in
everything … otherwise, when I come to the gates of heaven, there may be no
one to open them, because he who holds the keys has turned away”.
The decision in favour of Rome sent out a clear message that the tide was
turning against Celtic practices. York immediately supplanted Lindisfarne as the
Episcopal centre of Northumbria, and some who did not want to adapt to
Roman ways withdrew to Iona. By standardising the practices of the
Northumbrian Church according to the Roman tradition, the synod was a
landmark – not just in the history of the Church in England, but also of the
Church in Western Europe in the Middle Ages.
This year, Palm Sunday (which marks the beginning of Holy Week) falls on 9 th
April, with Maundy Thursday on 13th , Good Friday 14th , and wonderful Easter
Sunday will be 16th April 2017.
I love all of Holy Week, from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday, although I often
feel a deep sadness and loss on Good Friday, but through accepting these
feelings, I am all the more eager to enter into the joyful celebrations at the
proclamation of our Lord’s resurrection each Easter Morning. Lent is a time of
testing and reflective spiritual acceptance of our human failings, which can
seem too hard for some, and unnecessary to others, but I find it very useful in
reminding me that we Christians rely totally on the gracious mercy of our
loving Saviour, who has given us all the opportunity to share in His divine
resurrection and the gift of eternal life through him. So let us be ready to praise
our Lord with open, grateful hearts this Easter and share that joy with others.
In Jesus' name, Amen

Easter Day – At 6.00pm in St. Mary's in place of Evensong we will be having a
Service of Praise for Easter. This will
be led by our Korean Christian friends
based in Llanelli and will be an
exuberant, joyful service of praise. Do
come along to this service with a
difference.
Imagine what life would be like if you didn’t have taps and toilets, if you had
no choice but to drink dirty water and could only wash once a week before
going to church.
Since 1981 Water Aid has reached 24.9 million people with clean water, 24
million with proper toilets and 16.7 million with hygiene promotion. For the
first time ever, 9 in 10 of the world’s people now have safe water to drink and
more than 6 in 10 of the world’s people have a decent toilet.
Please help Water aid to reach the 1 in 10 people without clean water by taking
a bottle of water, a gift to you from Sunday School, from the box at the back of
church, then returning it full of change after Easter.
There are more ideas for getting involved on the noticeboard:- buying “Soaper
Duper” products, running a marathon, climbing a mountain, singing in Cardiff
and many more. Thank you for your generosity, Davina
EASTER GARDEN From St Paul’s Church Seaton in Cumbria
I walked in an Easter garden deserted, the Master not there.
I followed the narrowest footpath, mid blossoms so fragrant and rare.
Each of them offered a message that Christians may read and recall,
that Jesus himself was the gardener, his flowers a sermon for all.
Roses were there for remembrance, violets, to represent love,
Forget-me-nots bloomed to remind us how blue are the heavens above.
lillies, shed thoughts of compassion, sweet lavender perfumed the air.
Daffodils, told of forgiveness, Primulas spoke of his care,
Bluebells rang clear in the sunshine.
Ivy leaves clung to the wall, each one was carefully tended,
Such is his love for us all.
As I looked on this Easter garden, I had the thought of a far-away tree,
Where a flower forlorn, beneath a halo of thorn, had died for a sinner like me.
Our April meeting is on Wednesday 19th and will be our Annual Dinner. This
will be in the White Lion in Kidwelly at 7.00pm. Mr. John Burns will be our
guest speaker. Please let our Social Secretary, Mandy Jones 890006 know if
you would like to attend, no later than Friday 14 th April.
Don't forget: in addition to our meeting, on Friday May 19th at 7.00pm we
will be hosting a Quiz night in the Parish Room – teams of 4 £2 per person.
Battling barriers to peace: Getting women’s voices heard in peace and
reconciliation
We live in a fundamentally unequal world. People’s quality of life, the
opportunities they have and their experiences of the world differ dramatically
based on factors such as their place of birth; economic standing; age; marital
status; disability; sexuality and gender.
Women and girls continue to bear the brunt of gender inequality. Generally,
women have fewer legal rights than men, are more likely to experience violence
because of their gender, are prevented from accessing justice, and own
significantly less land and property than men. On top of these, women are also
prevented from accessing decision making structures and their voices are
blocked by cultural and structural factors, with only 22% of global
parliamentarians women.
One key area in which women’s voices are blocked is in formal peace-building,
and processes seeking to end violent armed conflict. Whilst women are
disproportionately affected by many aspects of conflict, their voices are not
being heard during peace processes, and their unique needs remain
unrepresented. Between 1992 and 2011 only three percent of signatories to
peace agreements were women and between 1990 and 2010 only 16% of peace
agreements contained references to the specific needs and experiences of
women. Time and again, we hear stories of women being purposefully excluded
from formal aspects of peace building, from the British Government cancelling
transportation for women to attend peace talks in 2015, to recent peace talks
about Syria, where women were excluded as the warring parties refused to
allow them in to negotiations.
Despite their experiences, women should not be viewed as passive victims of
armed conflict. Women can be powerful actors in peace-building, and dynamic
drivers of peace. In fact they have a hugely positive impact on the quality and
duration of the peace, with studies showing that when women are included in
the process, the chance of a peace agreement lasting at least 15 years increases
by 35%. A study from Sierra Leone found that around 55% of former
combatants said that women in their community had helped them reintegrate
after conflict.
Since 1876 when Mothers’ Union was founded, it has sought to promote
conditions in society favourable to stable family life and the protection of
children and to support those whose lives have met with adversity. Around the
world, many of our 4 million members in the 83 countries in which they live
and work, are confronting women’s roles as peace builders and reconcilers head
on. Mothers’ Union members are directly affected by the everyday realities of
war. They are peacemakers at an individual level, in families and within their
communities, as well as advocating with decision makers and those involved in
formal peace channels. In the DRC, Mothers’ Union practically supports
women affected by sexual violence in conflict, and advocates on their behalf
with decision makers at national and international level. In South Sudan,
Mothers’ Union members are actively involved in getting women’s voices
heard throughout the peace processes. They also provide practical support to
those displaced by the war, and have been involved in facilitating community
healing and reconciliation processes.
Mothers’ Union is also looking at how as an international network, and one of
the oldest women’s organisations in the world, it can work in a coordinated
manner to advocate for peace. When we look at the need around us, and see
communities devastated by violence and conflict, our response must be to act,
and to make sure that we speak up for, and raise the voices of women around
the world!

They lived hoppily ever after!
