This Week

In Chapel this week we reflected on the account of Jesus healing the blind man (John 9). As the man is restored, so Jesus’ opponents are thrown into confusion. Suddenly, they are the ones who are unable to see clearly. This reminds us that during this season of Lent, we are called to see ourselves with greater clarity.

We are called to recognise that we are often blind to the needs of those around us. We are called anew to recognise the needs of our neighbours and to reach out in compassion to them, to alleviate their distress and bring them back into a community of love. (See our projects below for two great opportunities).

We are called to recognise the prejudices and negative attitudes in our lives. We are called to honestly reflect on how we misjudge and exclude groups and individuals because of our distorted views about them. We are called to recognise the dignity of every single human person, without exception. And perhaps hardest of all, we are called to recognise those faults, mistakes and sins in ourselves. We are called to acknowledge that we all too easily fall into the trap of criticising others for their actions, without first recognising the errors, sometimes great errors, that we have made.

We pray that in this season of Lent, our sight would be restored!

There have been a couple of equine virus outbreaks in the area. Those who have their own horses or who ride elsewhere, please make sure you wear a different set of clothes and wash your hands before coming to equestrian.

Roxy and Mouse had physio last Saturday and really enjoyed it! On Monday, Charlie had a saddler visit to readjust his saddles, and the rest of the horses had a visit from the saddler on Friday.

It is important the horses’ saddles and backs are checked to make sure that they aren’t in any pain or discomfort when they are ridden.

The horse of the week is… Wizard!
