3. Letter from the MinisterDear FriendsSummer comes and our Prayer and Gift Day this Saturday (4th June) gives us the opportunity to come into the church and pray for the work of the church in this village of Hayes.Our journey over the last two or three years, looking first at the Bible,then Prayer, and now at Evangelism, has enabled us to see more clearlythe journey of faith that we travel together. Each of us has our ownidea of what it is that we believe in; what it is that holds us togetheras a Church, and what holds us is our understanding of Jesus Christ asthe Son of God, and as our Lord and Saviour, willing to die for us onthat cross.We all know that life is never the bed of roses that we crave.We all know that life can be kind and cruel.We all know that we need someone in our lives besides ourselves.The promise that holds good for us all is the one made to us by Jesus on that cross. Whatever we face, whatever life throws at us, Jesus is always by our sides holding, supporting and loving us, no matter what. And as a church this is what we offer each other too. Together we travel our path through this life, supporting and walking with each other when times are hard and when times are good.As a Church we offer this to our community too; opening our doors to share in the celebration of the Royal Wedding, and opening our doors and our hearts to share in those moments of grief and hardship that come to us all from time to time.As we seek to be Gods people in this world, making a difference to those we serve, let us be willing to look for ways to help in our community.As we gather together for our day of Prayer, let us remember our community and pray that we can truly be Gods people for them.Sue 1

But through Alpha in our prison, I have encountered God personally. The Bible given to me has become my best friend. This is the glowing endorsement of a prisoner in Sierra Leone for Alpha Internationals work among some of the most marginalised communities in Africa and beyond. And it is just one of many breathtaking testimonies of lives transformed beyond recognition thanks to a partnership between Alpha and Bible Society. Another prisoner in Sierra Leone known as Sufian, a self-confessed former thief and drug sniffer, said: Hearing the Word of God each week has helped me to know how I ought to behave in life. Bible Societys Key Relationships Manager Sue Wilmot says there are great opportunities to expand the ministry into more of Sierra Leones prisons and military bases and theres great demand for Bibles. In fact, thanks to this initiative, now in its fourth year, Alpha courses are being delivered in Ghana, Sierra Leone, Zambia, South Africa and Uganda, as well as India, with Scriptures provided by Bible Society in each case. Already, 136 of South Africas 250 prisons have requested that the course be run on their premises. But its impact is not limited to jails: in fact it is reaching many diverse groups from youth groups to rural communities. From the Bible Society Prayer Bulletin Article for 5 - 11 JUNE 5

10. Gospel for our TimesAnd Jesus came to a town where the people were sore dismayed at the news of unemployment. Jesus stood on a hillside and began to teach the people in parables saying, "There was once a multi- national company which for reasons of history had its Head Office in London employing general managers, ordinary managers, accountant, sales staff and those skilled in the management of personnel, all controlling the activities of the company worldwide. They were well off, enjoying good salaries, excellent pension arrangements, paid holidays, medical insurance, company cars, access to the companys products at staff discount and a sports club at Beckenham. Every year salaries were adjusted for inflation, every year salaries were reviewed to award long service and good effort. Every year there was promotion to fill the vacancies left by those who had retired. Yes, considering the state of the world and, in particular, that of those countries with whom the company traded, the staff had a comfortable existence, a job for life, a career in administration."One morning they all received a manilla envelope in which there was a letter from the chairman to say that as the company was reorganising they were all redundant. In future, Head Office would be located in Delhi, India. Communication would be via a computer and a satellite link and all the staff there would work as well as their English predecessors at a fraction of the cost. The Indian staff would require none of the benefits of the English staff and they would have no need for a sports club at Beckenham or any where else. Moreover, having been without work they would be very happy to have work".At this a man in the crowd called out, "Master, is it Gods will that I should lose my job?" Jesus looked at him and was moved by compassion for he knew him to be a righteous man. He said to him,My friend, did you not pray day by day for the poor of other lands and for a fairer distribution of the earths resources? Is not labour such a resource? Do you think that my Father pays no heed to your prayers or to those of people of other lands?"At this the man sorrowed for he was generous in spirit. The crowd was amazed at such teaching and went home wondering at the nature of Jesus for no one had spoken with such authority. 8

11. The Justice and Peace Group.Like the poor, good causes, and the charities and organisations which represent them, are always with us. After reporting on the local charity JusB in May, we would like to concentrate this month on Amnesty International. We are asked by Jesus to work for prisoners, and the prisoners supported by Amnesty, often isolated, and feeling crushed by the whole weight of the ruling powers in their land, are among the most needy and desperate of all. The Bromley & Orpington branch of Amnesty has always been supportive of our Justice and Peace group, sending us their regular newsletter from the early days. This now comes by email, and anyone in the church who would like to receive it electronically should let me know.In June there will be an easy way to do a little for Amnesty International Bromley & Orpington you could come to a summer concert! Hayes Philharmonic Choir was due to raise money for this cause at Christmas, but with the carol concert cancelled by bad weather, has instead offered them half the proceeds of its summer concert on 18 June. This will be a potpourri of anthems, songs, glees and madrigals, and will be followed by the choirs traditional Christmas celebrations adapted for summer so do come along, to have a good time, to learn something of our musical heritage, to have a bite to eat, and to help an excellent cause to overcome the disappointments of the December weather.We in the J&P Group are Laurie Hobbs, Barbara Jones, Jim Pearson, Christine Rees, Judith and David Stoner.Womens Contact Coffee Morning 10.00 am - 12.00We continue to raise funds for disaster relief causes.Our next coffee morning will be on 11th of June. We hope to see you there, and why not bring a friend. Our cakes are to die for!! (Yum, yum) Barbara JonesThe Fairtrade Sunday StallThere will be a stall after the morning services on the 5th & 19th of June, and the 3rd of July.The regular items for sale are food and drink - all of very good quality. Remember that by purchasing Fairtrade goods you are helping to support communities in the world, and to give those communities a chance to enjoy a better life for their families - standards which we may take for granted here in the UK.Please continue to support your fair trade stall. Thank you. Richard, Barbara and Helen. 9

17. Places of Worship In the late 1960s, I remember visiting Rosslyn, just South of Edinburgh, to see a publicised attraction - The Apprentice Pillar in Rosslyn Chapel. The story went that while the master mason was away on business, his apprentice carved a glorious pillar. The work was far better than that of the master. I will let the better qualified storytellers take on the tale, later.We were struck by the interior of the entire chapel, the rich carving throughout was a testament to the skills of stonemasons. I still think of the pillar, and wonder what other treasures exist South of Edinburgh in the border areas. Perhaps our Scottish members can expand. Certainly, the chapel is worth a visit. The following is from the PIETRE-STONES REVIEW OF FREEMASONRY Of the many mysteries and legends which envelop Rosslyn Chapel few can be so well known as that surrounding the Apprentice Pillar. The legend, ... with its overt references to the initiation rituals of ancient guilds of stonemasons ... runs as follows:"The master mason having received from his patron the model of a pillar of exquisite workmanship and design, hesitated to carry it out until he had been to Rome or some such foreign part. and seen the original. He went abroad, and in his absence, an apprentice, having dreamed the finished pillar, at once set to work and carried out the design as it now stands, a perfect marvel of workmanship. The master mason on his return was so stung with envy that he asked who had dared to do it in his absence. On being told it was his own apprentice, he was so inflamed with rage and passion, that he struck him with his mallet, killed him on the spot, and paid the penalty for his rash and cruel act." This legend has come down to us, in almost unaltered form, since the foundation of the chapel. ...... Additional support for this puzzling story comes from the persistent tradition that before its completion, Rosslyn Chapel had to be re-consecrated.

18. Father and SonA teenage boy had just passed his driving test and asked his father when they could discuss his use of the car.His father said hed make a deal with his son: You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible, and get your hair cut. Then well talk about the car.The boy thought about that for a moment, decided hed settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.After about six weeks his father said, Son, youve brought your grades up and Ive observed that you have been studying your Bible, but Im disappointed you havent had your hair cut. The boy said, You know, Dad, Ive been thinking about that, and Ive noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair and theres even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair. Fathers reply - Youre going to love this ...Did you also notice that they all walked everywhere they went? The way things once were From The Nottinghamshire Almanac for June 1841. GARDEN. - Top peas and beans to assist the filling of the pods. Plant ont (Should be out) pumpkins and cucumbers on pits filled with stable dung mixed with green nettles. Sow portions of cauliflower, cabbage, turnip, also carrots, and onions to be drawn young. Likewise pearl and Prussian blue peas for late crops. At the end sow the principal crop of turnips. Passages transcribed as shown EdThis months extract brings to the fore some thoughts which I would like to share - a challenge perhaps, based on some questions1. Why were green nettles used as a fertilizer?2. Are any of the vegetable varieties in existence. If so, then where can seeds , or further information be obtained?3. Does anyone have recipes which use these historic crops? I will publish any answers in the next edition of Catalyst. There may be a prize in the offing - for the winner drawn from the hat. 16

22. A final piece - for Peace of Mind - continued from last month ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your Mobile TelephoneTHIRD - Have you locked your keys in the car?Does your car have remote keyless entry?This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone:If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you.Distance is no object. You could be thousands of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other remote for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the boot).Contributors Note:I didnt believe this when I heard about it! I rang my daughter in Sydney from Perth when we went on holiday.She had the spare car key. We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a mobile phone!FOURTH - How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?To check your Mobile phones serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 #Ensure you put an asterisk BEFORE the #06# sequence.A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset.Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. If your phone ever gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code.They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.You probably wont get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it cant use/sell it either.If everybody did this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.This secret is also in the fine print of most mobile phone manuals. It was created for the very purpose of trying to prevent phones from being stolen. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please pass this along to everyone.This is the kind of information people dont mind receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends.That completes the series of articles.
