Creeting St Mary, St Mary

FROM THE MINISTRY TEAM

Across the Benefice in our beautiful churches we have had the joy of celebrating Easter followed by the more worldly celebrations of commemorating the end of the fighting during World War 2. I feel sure that God has a hand in that too, for only can He look after the fallen and help us to find the courage to preserve the fragile peace that we have known since 1945.

Now the season of Pentecost approaches. Whitsunday, as it always used to be known, is a time of opening up of the new light as it shown by the message the Disciples carried to all corners of the world, is the message both of love and forgiveness. At the same time the year moves on and the trees are green again, and the grass grows so quickly we can scarcely cut it. Spring is truly with us turning into Summer.

This year we have had warm sunshine which seems to just go on and on. Some people see this as a threat. I can look back in history before any records were kept and see that our planet has always suffered extremes of weather and I find it no threat for as always we are in the hands of God.

Therefore as we take in the multilingual message of Pentecost, let us give thanks for the peace we have known together with the English countryside that we must preserve for all time.
