*My roots are in the Baptist church, but after marrying Sandra in 1999 I joined her in worshipping at Parkwood Methodist Church, Longwood. My life is surrounded by beautiful women (what a blessed man I am) as I have two stepdaughters and three step granddaughters. I work for a company called ISS, travelling up and down the train line from Todmorden to Marsden, keeping the stations clean and tidy. I qualified as a Local Preacher in May 2013.
Junior Church Trinity has a Junior Church which takes place during the latter part of the service. During Easter the activities included a beautiful scroll which told the Easter story and we made hot cross buns which we shared with the congregation. The children also produced some very imaginatively decorated Easter eggs.
Drumming Up Support for Fairtrade!
Now that the Easter holidays are over, our Junior Church will be looking forward to celebrating more Christian festivals. I hope you will feel like joining us in our ‘decorated potato’ display when Harvest Festival arrives!
On World Fairtrade Day Saturday 9th May something exciting heads to Holmfirth. The Festival of Folk and fairandfunky are joining forces and “Drumming up Support for Fairtrade” with family workshops, musicians, stalls and exhibitions. Taking place in Holmfirth Market the event will see the launch of a very special “Cotton on to Fairtrade” exhibition from Holme Valley Fairtrade. Come along and see a collection of celebrity signed Fairtrade cotton bags including Patrick Stewart and Annie Lennox. Raffle tickets will be on sale giving you the chance to own one of the bags.
Methodists have long seen political engagement as part of their Christian discipleship. Christians are to be found voting for, campaigning for and even standing for almost every political party.
Alongside the exhibition a host of stalls will fill the marketplace and a drop-in fairandfunky SCRAPtastic workshop invites people of all ages to create marvellous musical instruments out of junk! These can then be taken around the festival to join in the festivitiesyou may even find yourself with an audience.
The nine stars in the box puzzle Can you join all the stars using only four straight lines and not taking your pencil off the paper?
Throughout the day artistes from the festival will be popping in to perform – singers, dancers and drummers are all lined up to entertain; many of whom will be inviting event goers to join in! Day

Our Minister-September Pioneer I have been asked to say something about my new role in September and to explain what ‘Pioneering’ is, so here goes…
The Methodists have recently published a booklet which attempts to describe what Pioeering means. They say that ‘A pioneer is someone who creates new opportunities for people to encounter and respond to God’s love that extend beyond traditional church services’* As you can see this is a broad definition which means that pioneering is difficult to pin down (which in my case is a good thing). As I was thinking about this I began to meet people who were suffering from depression or anxiety or just so stressed that living a ‘normal’ life was an uphill struggle. The shock for me was that there are so many people suffering
this way. So I am going into partnership with the NHS which is doing some pioneering of its own. Together we are going to offer spiritual practices to help with low to moderate depression, or anxiety, or stress. We will do this in the first instance by offering ‘Mindfulness’ courses and then to continue those courses in whatever spiritual ways might be useful. ‘Mindfulness’ is a way of not letting the past or the future dominate all your thinking. Instead the idea is to be aware of the present moment and to realize just how special ‘now’ is. It sounds very simple (which it is) but it takes time and practice to perfect what has become an art. For those who have tried it, many say ‘it has saved my life’. The follow-on sessions will at first be based on the old fashioned ways of monastic living but updated for the 21st century. The groups which form after the Mindfulness sessions can continue with Mindfulness but together we can work out what other practices can help with our daily living.
I am hoping that the old ways of a rhythm of life, set times in the day to stop and pray, and mutual support will further peoples’ well-being. The exciting thing about all of this is that as each week begins something new comes up and all the partners already involved seem to be encouraged and supported. Who is it for? Well, it’s for anyone and everyone. The aim is to work with people who wouldn’t normally go to church but I am also aware that many of us who come to church each Sunday would benefit and enjoy joining me on this pioneer adventure. If you would like to know more, please get in touch. After September I am happy to visit churches or groups to explain in more detail. Tim

All of these activities include all ages; adults and children. It is a fun way of doing church and the people who gather at Messy Church become a congregation themselves. In Honley the three churches, St. Mary’s, Elim and Trinity, share Messy Church. It is held on the last Saturday of each month, 3.30 to 5.30 pm. The one in May is on the 30th at St Mary’s. Come along and see for yourself what goes on – but also mention this to any families you know. All are welcome – but children need to bring an adult with them!

Middle East crisis grows Number of displaced Syrians and Iraqis is now equivalent to the population of London The present turmoil in the Middle East has produced the worst refugee crisis since the end of the Second World War – but in spite of the huge numbers involved, we are in danger of forgetting all about them.
Embrace is asking for funds to support local Christians throughout the Middle East to provide food, healthcare and education to refugees of all faiths and backgrounds trying to rebuild shattered homes and lives. The recent deaths of two Syrian babies from cold in a Lebanese border town highlights the appalling conditions faced by hundreds of thousands.
Moodey believes that, despite the desperate situation for the 20 million That's the view of Jeremy Moodey, refugees struggling to survive in the CEO of Embrace the Middle East, a Middle East today, there are signs Christian charity tackling poverty of hope. and injustice in the Middle East. Writing in his blog, Moody explains: “The region’s small Christian com“The Reuters news agency sugmunities are responding to the gests that the number of displaced needs of refugees with a generosity Syrians and Iraqis is now equivalent of spirit and an abundance of comto the population of London passion which is humbling, espe-

Embrace works with some 50 local project partners in the lands of the Bible, primarily Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt and Syria.

Lent Lunches This year the Lent Lunches raised a total of £600.00 for Honley Aid in Sickness. Thank you to all who made soup, served and supported the lunches .Sylvia Hallas,
From 10-16 May, churches all over Britain and Ireland will come together to pray, campaign and raise money to improve the lives of people less fortunate than we. Every year, 100,000 volunteers taking part in house-tohouse collections for Christian Aid. This fantastic witness is a chance to take the mission of the church into your community.
The general opinion was that the lunch was very enjoyable which seemed to be, backed-up by the fact that there was nothing at all left! The meal was then followed by a quiz, for which we would like to express our grateful thanks to Jennifer Armitage and Pat Bex for organising it – Well done!
The questions came as aftersThe Meat & Potato Pie Lunch and Quiz. This event, organised on March 22nd by the Activities Committee, was originally going to be a New Year social in January. Giving much thought to this, the committee decided, taking ‘one consideration with another’- weather, dark night, elderly people, coughs and colds etc. that a mid-day event later in the year would probably be appreciated more.
So we had a good time; good food and good company, what more can one ask? Coming – further events. Tuesday 28th July at 2.30pm – Beetle Drive with Tea and Cakes. Sunday 20th Sept – Harvest Lunch.
This idea proved to be correct; we had a good number of people there, who congregated in the upper room following the morning service and coffee. A lunch of meat and potato pie, or vegetarian option, with peas and gravy, was on the menu, followed by tea or coffee and assorted biscuits.
Activities Committee: Karen Stannard, Ann Hirst, Carolynne Roberts, Maureen Burley, Jennifer Armitage, Pat Bex, Jean Wood, Margaret Armitage, Jacki and Deborah Fawcett and Linda Craven.

And some non-medical ones supposed to be from a catholic elementary school test ~ In the first book of the bible, guinessis, god got tired of creating the world, so he took the Sabbath off. ~ Lots wife was a pillar of salt during the day, but a ball of fire during the night. ~ The jews were a proud people and througout history they had trouble with unsympathetic genitals. ~ Moses led the jews to the red sea where they made unleavened bread, which is bread without any ingredients. ~ The egyptians were all drowned in the dessert. Afterwards, Moses went up to mount cyanide to get the ten commandments. ~ The first commandment was when eve told adam to eat the apple. ~ The seventh commandment is thou shalt not admit adultery ~ The greatest miricle in the bible is when joshua told his son to stand still and he obeyed him ~ David was a Hebrew king who was skilled at playing the liar.

Miscellaneous The Gideons and the new Money Mite Collections There are many people in Britain and elsewhere in the world who have never seen a Bible and may be uncertain what it is. The aim of the Gideons is to give them the opportunity to read it for themselves and to discover God in a personal way. The Gideons place Bibles in many areas including hotels, hospitals, prisons, student accommodation (except in Huddersfield), care homes and medical centres. Each year they present personal copies of the New Testament and psalms to children in many British secondary schools, and to university and college students. Keeping the work of the Gideons in our prayers is one way of supporting them. We can also support their work by donations. Over the years the folks at Honley Trinity have collected loose change in plastic tubes known as Mite Phials on behalf of the Gideons which goes towards the cost of providing the bibles they distribute. The latest collection (April) amounted to £35 Last November John & Sharon Blaymire of the Gideons led a Sunday Service at Trinity and we got to know the updates of the work of the Gideons and their challenges. They introduced us to their newly designed Money Mite. It is now a cardboard tube, with a bigger slot to put your money in. Now you can put in coins and notes of any size and thickness! Please continue to show your support to this worthwhile work. Maureen Burley is the Trinity Mite Phial Co-ordinator. See her if you would like to have one of these new Money Mites, but she is happy to take a donation in any form, even in a plastic bag, Every little helps! All donations will be sent to the Gideons.
Women's Fellowship The AGM We held our last meeting of this season on Tuesday 24 March. consisted of a short AGM and then a quiz followed by afternoon tea with hot cross buns both of which were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

We shall be holding some tea and cakes afternoons during the summer and look forward to seeing everyone then. The dates are 12th May, 9th June and 18th August Many thanks to everyone for their continued support. Marion Bainbridge and Ann Hirst

On getting older: When I was a child I thought a midday nap was a punishment… now, as a grown up, it just feels like a short holiday. The biggest lie I tell myself is… “I don’t need to write that down, I’ll remember it”. I don’t have grey hair. I just have ‘wisdom highlights’. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he would’ve put them on my knees. Of course I may talk to myself- I need expert advice. At my age “Getting lucky” means walking into a room and remembering what I came in for. Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators but we haven’t met yet.

After the Resurrection, Jesus was seen on the road to Emmaus and by the Sea of Galilee. 40 days after Easter Jesus ascended into heaven; his work on earth was done. The disciples returned to Jerusalem, and on the fateful morning of Pentecost, there was suddenly the sound as of a mighty rushing wind. Tongues of flame flickered on their heads, and they began to praise God in many tongues – to the astonishment of those who heard them.
From Helen Amster, Sandstone Close, 14 March Many thanks to Sylvia for the pretty spring flowers from Church on 9th March; a lovely bouquet of yellow tulips and purple hyacinths, bringing colour and fragrance to my room. Altogether much appreciated. ♣ From Barbara Leach, Chesterton Drive, 12 April I would like to say thank you to Trinity Church for the very nice flowers which I received while I have not been well. Thank you.
That morning the Holy Spirit came to indwell all those who believed in Jesus: the Church was born. And so we have a triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

EARTH PETER HOLY SPIRIT TRINITY FATHER SON TRIUNE Martin Luther was very probably wearing socks just like these when he delivered his defiant "Here I stand, I can do no other" speech before Emperor Charles V. His Mum would have made sure of it: "You're not going to see the Emperor without your best socks on." Which is why it's so appropriate that the town of Wittenberg, where Luther lived, is now selling the Luther Sock, complete with his "Here I stand" speech, which he probably never made, spoilsport scholars say.
