The Clergy Letter for April I had hoped to be writing to you with the glad news that we had been successful in appointing a new incumbent to our Benefice but it is not to be… just yet. After the interview process the panel reported that they felt that neither candidate was suitable for our Benefice. We will just have to be patient and wait until God puts the right candidate into the process. Answering questions from an interview panel is not an easy thing to do. Any of you readers who have applied for jobs or promotions will know what it is like to sit in front of a panel and try to be truthful in your replies whilst trying to glean what they wish to hear from you! Before the interview you must do your homework and investigate the role you would be called to work in. You would look at the company or organisation and consider what you could give to them to enhance their present position. If you are hoping to be in the role for a considerable amount of time, there is a level of honesty and integrity that is necessary for you to be able to function well for a prolonged period. No one is able to live and work a lie for long! I wonder what it would be like if we had to apply to God to be a Christian? Would we hear of the opening through the local community or would there be an advertisement in the local paper: –
‘Wanted:- a well-motivated person of any age required to join a global community of faithful people. You would be required to love your CEO with all your heart, mind and strength and your neighbour as yourself.’!! On the day of the interview (if you were shortlisted) would you turn up with a portfolio to prove your loving capabilities, a list of charitable giving, and maybe a Bible to show your breadth of reading around the subject? How nervous would you be, and would you be sure of giving the correct answers to all those soul-searching questions? I wonder how many of us would be given the position?!!

The joy of the situation is that the founder of the company is not divisive. He will accept all who come to him with enquiring minds. Training will be given on the job and skills will come with practice. This Chief Executive Officer, (God by name) will be accessible to each of his people at any time of day or night and will not differentiate by race, rank, intelligence or colour. All are allowed to apply without prejudice or preference. The job would require you to tell as many people as possible of the company mission statement and interest them in joining too. Your demeanour would need to be loving, giving and kind to all you meet. Optimum practice would be achieved if you met together with other members on a regular basis (possibly once a week) to share the shortcomings of your performance and join in adoration and love for the CEO and his team. You would be given inspirational texts to listen to and reflect on. They will recharge your motivation and send you out with renewed vigour. The retirement plan is unique. All previous members are sustained for ever in a place of love and joy. There will be a performance management appointment (a day of reckoning) at the end of time when each member will be able to stand before God and discover the merciful qualities of that CEO and his team, when their performance as a Christian is reviewed. It sometimes helps to look at our lives as Christians in another light to save ourselves from becoming complacent. We have the best job in the whole of creation and it is good never to take it for granted. It is worth sharing with as many people as possible that Jesus, as one of the three founding members of our Company, loved us so much that he died on the cross for all our shortcomings. He is worthy of our loyalty and love. Revd Trish

CRIME We have unfortunately seen a spate of crime in Bramham recently.

BRAMHAM COMMUNITY FUND The Bramham Community Fund was created in 2003 to distribute the monies available to Bramham as a result of the Leeds Festival. It was set up by the owners of Bramham Park and the promoter Festival Republic. About two thirds of the money has come from donations made by residents obtaining heavily discounted tickets for the event and the other third is a donation from the promoter. Every year, a committee under the chairmanship of Nick and Rachel Lane Fox and on which the Parish Council is represented, considers applications for grants from community organisations. Since the Fund was set up, it has made grants of over £340,000. The objective of the Fund is generally to support community projects and these must benefit the residents of Bramham. The Fund does not support commercial activities or private individuals. The committee met on 6 March 2018 to consider grants to be made from the proceeds of the 2017 Festival. Grants were made towards the following: All Saints’ Church
Project to repair/replace the organ
Historic Asset
Movement of Percy Cross to Bramham

Community Fund continued from page 19……………
Consideration was also given to supporting the setting up of a Junior Parkrun. This requires further clarification from the applicant. A further announcement will be made if this is successful. The Fund also supports the shuttle bus between the village and the festival and the ticket administration costs. It is expected that the committee will meet again in March 2019 to consider grants from the 2018 Festival. An announcement will be made in the magazine nearer the date and any community organisation wishing to apply for a grant will be required to submit an application no later than 14 February 2019.

Secretary to the Fund

Saturday April 21st 2018 Bramham is delighted to be beating the bounds of its parish shortly and all villagers, their friends and families are invited to join us on this lovely walk. Beating the bounds is an ancient custom where a group of old and young members of the community walk the boundaries of the parish. Please note – this year we start from Bramham School - and the Lunch Stop is at Bramham Park House The following describes the stages of the walk and should be read in conjunction with the attached map showing the route around the local area. It is intended that participants start off as a single group and try to maintain the group over the 6 stages. This is to simplify the logistics involved in marshalling the walkers and providing the transport to and from the stage start/end points. It is also felt that walkers being involved with a single group will benefit from the camaraderie engendered when walking together. So you may walk all 6 stages or simply select one or more as suits your abilities and join the stage you want at the appropriate start time shown below. A description of each stage is given below. These are intended to give an idea of the environment and walking conditions for each stage, they are not a detailed description of the routes which may vary with weather conditions on the day. Stage One: Bramham School to Newton Kyme – 8.30 am start (prompt) – 2.8 miles ) FULL DETAILS OF EACH STAGE ARE AVAILABLE—PLEASE CONTACT Anne Palmer WHO WILL SEND YOU A COPY. ……..Beating the Bounds continued on page 35

Please note that stage times are estimates and may vary on the day. Clothing: Please ensure that you are correctly dressed, have good strong footwear and that you have food and drink with you to last the duration of the walk.

CONGRATULATIONS TO Mrs Betty Woodcock who celebrated her 100th Birthday on 16th March. Betty is now a resident in a Care Home in Garforth. Betty lived in Bramham for 96 years, much of it at Heygate Farm, on the High Street, but later moved to Aberford Road, opposite the Blacksmith’s Workshop, and then on to Lyndon Road. Betty is still smiling and has vivid tales of the past, - pony and trap rides to Spen Farm in the snow at Christmas; making bombs during the war at Thorp Arch, and of course Church and Chapel friends. With plenty of memories she still says Bramham is her home. With thanks to David Woodcock for sending this message. 37
