John Lavender Glenmore Park Anglican Church What is heaven like?

Is it like the Philadelphia Cream Cheese TV commercial with angels sitting on a cloud and eating cream cheese? Is that what heaven is like? Some people think heaven will be boring. Others simply don’t know. Some people talk about what happens after you die as “going to a better place”. Is that what heaven is like; “A better place?” It is a fairly important question isn’t it? Knowing what happens after you die. Knowing where you will spend eternity.

One of the great things about being a Christian is the assurance that if your trust is in Jesus, you can know with 100% confidence that Jesus has opened up the door of eternity and has secured for you a place in his heaven where you can enjoy being with God

forever! The Bible tells us that heaven is where “There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain”. The knowledge of this reality has been a source of great hope and joy to millions of Christian people throughout history.

“Is heaven real” is the title of the next Coffee Night to be held at Glenmore Park Anglican Church on Saturday 14th November getting underway at 7.45pm. Come for the excellent desserts and the great coffee but more than anything come to find out how you can be sure and confident about probably the most important question you will ever need to think about.

Would you like to know more? Give me a call or book your spot on 4733 1635.

Padro Pio Parish November the month of the dead “Why don’t skeletons go out on the town? Because they have no body to go with!” “Why do mummies have trouble keeping friends? Because they are too wrapped up in themselves!”

So the children’s book of jokes begins a list of “Halloween jokes”. Purely all harmless fun, you would think. But for those of us who revere the dead and remember what Halloween really means, these corny jokes make your skin crawl.

November is a special month for Catholics as we remember those who have died. All Masses offered by the priests in this month are specially dedicated to the memory of those who have given us the gift of life and faith.

Ancestors are very important to many cultures and the souls of those who have died always surround us. Most of what we do is influenced by what we have learnt, the things we have seen our parents and grandparents do. Even prior to 300BC the Celtic civilization, fully pagan Druids, worshipped many gods and one of the key festivals was Samhain, the Festival of Death. Every year on the 31st October (the end of the pagan year) fires were lit and even

human sacrifices offered to appease the gods and to welcome a new year of indulgence. As the centuries passed and the Druids, under Roman domination, declined in numbers and power, the common people entered more and more into the pagan practices of Samhain. They particularly practiced a growing number of forms of divination, and these works of darkness were woven deeply into the fabric of Celtic life.

In the 8th Century the Pope, in an attempt to force the people to abandon the festival of Samhain and all its occult, idolatrous practices, established All Saints day on November 1st. This holy day was to honor the Christian dead, particularly those who died as martyrs in the terrible Roman persecutions. In the British Isles, this day came to be known as All Halloweds” and the evening before it became known as “All Hallowed’s Evening” or “Halloween”. (adapted from Halloween: Trick or treat with the festival of death, available from Koorong Books, Penrith) Some parents think us spoilt-sports when we as Christians question their willingness to let their children celebrate the pagan ritual of Halloween.

Why would you think that for this one day of the year, your children are free to do something you forbid them to do

for every other day of the year, “Accepting lollies from strangers”? Do you really think that strangers suddenly become friends on the day we remember all the dead, because they dress as little witches and demons?

The true meaning of this month should not be forgotten. It is important to remember those who have gone before us as the Bible tells us: “It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead that they may be loosed of their sins”. Maccabees 12:46 David Lee for the Padre Pio Parish

Warragamba Dam to reopen 8th November “Before its closure Warragamba Dam was one of the most visited tourist destination in Sydney” Minister for Water Phil Costa said. “We’ve invested in a major upgrade to the grounds surrounding the dam including construction of three new viewing platforms with sweeping views of the lake behind the dam wall. “The dam has been closed for more than 10 years for vital upgrades that allow us to continue to deliver a world class water supply,” The $240 million program of major upgrades included: • $111 million auxiliary spillway to withstand a worst-case scenario flood • $62 million constructing the deep water pumping station and works to allow access to deep water in the dam • $23 million to upgrading of the dam’s entire electrical network • $20 million visitor’s centre and new operations building under construction • $15 million upgrade the valve house lifts, crest cranes and stoplog rails • $9 million replacing pipeline valves, fencing and painting.

The new facilities at the dam include shade shelters, picnic tables,

www.glenmoregazette.com.au

seating and toilets. Signs are installed throughout the precinct to allow visitors to learn about the dam, its history and the drinking water catchments.

The grounds will be opened from 8th November 8am-5pm weekdays and 8am-6pm on weekends and public holidays. Access to the dam wall is still closed for construction works, due for completion in 2012. Future access to the dam wall will be reviewed then.

Snake Alert The Red belly black snake is common locally but is quick to retreat when encountered. It is venomous but fatalities are rare. The Eastern brown snake is venomous and dangerous and will defend itself if it feels threatened. Do not attempt to kill snakes as this is when people get bitten. All native snakes are protected in NSW and it is illegal to harm them. Leave it alone and watch where it goes. Keep the dog and cat contained.

Tips to help keep snakes from your yard.

Don’t stack wood near the house Keep the grass short Keep animal water dishes inside or in a cleared area and don’t leave uneaten food in dishes.

November 2009

Always wear garden gloves whilst gardening and long pants in long grass.

If you keep birds, clean up seed and fruit to stop rodents from visiting.

If you have a pond you may get a visit from a snake, just watch where it goes, do not get in its way.

If you should encounter a snake just stop and stand still.

Boxes should be off the ground in sheds, as they make nice homes for snakes’ favorite food, rodents!

Snakes may not have ears but they pick up vibrations so stomp those feet if you are going into a shed or barn.

Kids may come across snakes when riding their push bike along tracks; they need to wear enclosed shoes and long pants as the snake won’t pick up vibrations from the rubber tyres.

If you are bitten by a snake, you do not need to kill it for identification as the hospital has a kit that can do it.

If you feel threatened by a snake in your house or your dog or cat have injured a snake or lizards you can contact the NSW Fire Brigade. Regentville is the nearest, 4733 6851, or phone 000. WIRES, the Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Service, can also be contacted on 4754 2946.
