A WORD FROM THE EDITOR I am utterly addicted to and obsessed by Leonard Cohen, so you can imagine how excited I was to discover a new album was to be released three years after his death. Thanks for the Dance has been arranged by Leonard’s son Adam and features various collaborators and previously unheard material. Every line is a masterpiece, all the more poignant because it was written and recorded when he was “Waiting for the miracle to come”. Death and dying have always been key themes of his work, but is it fair to refer to the man who said “The older I get, the surer I am that I’m not running the show” as ‘the grandfather of gloom’? I go to one or other of his albums for inspiration, comfort, reassurance, hope and even humour. Tonight Will Be Fine always makes me smile: Sometimes I find I get to thinking of the past. We swore to each other then that our love would surely last. You kept right on loving, I went on a fast, Now I am too thin and your love is too vast. And the ultimate love song must surely be If I Didn’t Have Your Love: If the sun would lose its light And we lived an endless night And there was nothing left That you could feel That’s how it would be My life would seem to me If I didn’t have your love To make it real I can’t imagine a world without music (it doesn’t have to be Leonard Cohen all the time), but for others it might be art or theatre, movies or even long walks in the countryside which provide the indefinable something which makes life better. Whatever it may be, I hope you find time and space to indulge in it this year. Maybe we can help you find it if you haven’t already! And when you’re having a bad day… “Act the way you’d like to be and soon you’ll be the way you act.” Leonard Cohen

NEWS WESTERFIELD STATION NEEDS YOU

Have you recently walked along Platform 1 at Westerfield Station? If so, did you spot the newly planted border and tub? Did you wonder who has been bringing about the changes? I am a volunteer who has adopted Westerfield Station through Greater Anglia’s Adopter Scheme. At the beginning of March 2019, I started clearing the nettles, brambles and weeds to make way for a planting scheme of perennials and grasses. The plants went in early May and flowered all summer. The planting has been so successful we would like to continue with the clearing as far as the ticket machine and are looking for volunteers to help. If you would like an energising escape from your day-to-day routine of work, would like to try something new or do something with your spare time, want to meet new people and be part of an inventive gardening project or want to share your gardening skills with the community, please consider joining us as an adopter at Westerfield Station. For more details contact me on 01473 785622 or visit: www.greateranglia.co.uk/about-us/station-adopter-scheme For me volunteering as Westerfield’s Station adopter is a fun and rewarding hobby. I am supported by the Greater Anglia network and am enjoying meeting other adopters with common interests. Sandy Burn

MEET UP WEDNESDAYS IN WITNESHAM You’ve heard of Meet Up Mondays in the local media, well in Witnesham it’s a bit different and happens on Wednesdays. This is an opportunity to come out and meet your friends and neighbours over a cup of tea or coffee at The 3Cs Café. Have a chat and a laugh together. It’s a friendly place to meet. We meet at Witnesham Baptist Church on Wednesday mornings from 9.30-11.30am. Why don’t you try it out in the new year?

ROYAL BRITISH LEGION POPPY APPEAL This year the collection for Witnesham raised just over £1,260. Yet again, this is magnificent and a huge thank you for your donation from everyone at the Royal British Legion. Thank you too to everyone who assists with this appeal, whether it’s preparing the boxes, the door-to-door collecting, running a special event and then donating the proceeds to the British Legion or being kind enough to host a static collecting tin and poppy box.

NEWS CHRISTMAS BAZAAR AT ASHBOCKING ALL SAINTS

CABARET NIGHT AT WITNESHAM VILLAGE HALL

ASHBOCKING NEWS For those folk who visited the bazaar at Ashbocking Church on December 7, I’m sure it was a joyous time. The refreshments were outstanding, all homemade and delicious. The church was adorned with goodies ranging from exquisite handmade crafts to jewellery, bric-a-brac, books and artworks. Many hours had gone into creating, making, assembling and displaying. We are so fortunate in this village to have teams of folk who are prepared to put in their time and talents for the enjoyment of others, be it for activities in the church, on the community land or down on the farm. Particular congratulations and thanks to Linda, John, Brenda, Nel, Linda E, Jill, Mike, Mike S, Noreen, Ken, Kevin, Adine, Sarah, Steve, Anna, Clare, Grace, Phil, Steve S, Anna, Phil R and Liz. Sincere apologises if I’ve missed anyone. As you can see, many folk were involved and a big thank you to all of you who made the effort to attend the bazaar. I hope you were all pleased with your bargains. We realised that there were a number of other events taking place in the area on the same day, so our numbers were down on a couple of years ago when we did a similar event. Perhaps a date in November would result in more folk attending. However, we attracted people from Witnesham, Grundisburgh, Otley and Coddenham, not to mention Wickham Market and Helmingham. So special thanks to ‘the outsiders’ for supporting us. By the time you read this we will know the colour of the government, or maybe it will be a mixture of colours. I can hardly wait! But let’s hope 2020 will be a year of achievement, growth and opportunity. where all of us share in the prosperity of the country and we make an effort to look after each other and make our community even stronger together. Happy New Year! Liz Stegman

Once again Cabaret Night was held in Witnesham Village Hall to raise funds for FIND. We were entertained by a wide range of performers from poets to musicians and the Village Voices choir. Our singers were Sue Sturgess singing Hallelujah, Tom Bennett with Lord of the Dance and Jane Blondel with Supermarket Flowers. Poets were Margaret Holman reading The Orange by Wendy Cope and David Howe reading Men, A Winter’s Tale, Paradise and All is Lost. The instrumentalist gave us a real treat with Anna Cook on alto sax playing Poirot and La Cumparsita, Evan McNab played Take the A Train on piano and the tenor sax played Tenderly and Autumn Leaves. Rose and friends played and sang Response to The Taming of the Shrew, When I’m Alone, I Love You Already (Romeo and Juliet) and Sweet Love Remembered. Village Voices sang The Vicar of Dibley, Mr Bean and Black Adder. A big thank to our musical director Christine Laughlin who continues to unearth new talent to entertain us and to all those who provided the draw, especially Fynn Valley Golf Club and Richard’s Fruit and Veg who continue to support us. To our audience a big thank you for your support and appreciation of our show, and for raising £491 for FIND. Peter Elmy

WITNESHAM RECORDER’S REPORT I was lucky to attend two events at the village hall on the same day, Saturday 23 November. In the morning we had the Christmas Fair, full of stalls and with cakes and coffee and tea supplied by the WI and plenty of homemade items for sale. In the evening I saw the ceilidh with a packed hall listening and dancing to the sounds of the Bold and Saucy Wrongs, supported by Rose Johnson and Paul Laughlin. The evening raised funds for Witnesham Pre-school. A week later and the Bold and Saucy Wrongs were back again along with a number of singing acts and the Witnesham Voices, this time raising money for FIND. A fundraising raffle was organised by Pater and Jan Elmy and another packed house were entertained by some highly talented people. How lucky we are to be entertained by our own people. Finally, on a more serious point, I can confirm that our parish council agreed by a large majority to write to the county council confirming our no confidence in the elected councillor, Robin Vickery. This is in response to his non-support for the overwhelming call for a STOP to the northern bypass. Steve Henley, Witnesham Village Recorder

COLD HANDS, WARM HEARTS A winter warmer fundraising concert at Woodbridge Community Hall on Saturday 18 January at 7.30pm Come and join Families in Need (FIND) and Suffolk Singers for a spectacular charity concert raising funds for FIND, a truly inspirational charity offering a lifeline to people in Suffolk who are experiencing poverty and despair.

The award winning Suffolk Singers make a swift return to Woodbridge, having performed at St Mary’s Church in October to much acclaim. However, this will be a concert that contrasts in style with October, comprising mainly of light music, reflecting the relaxed atmosphere created for the occasion. As always, the choir will be led by their much-cherished musical director Claire Weston, accompanied on the keyboard by former Woodbridge School pupil Harrison Cole. Also performing will be Claire’s Young Singers, a talented group of singers from Woodbridge School.

In appreciation for all the hard work done by Mel Brinkley, our chairlady Jacqui Lucas and treasurer Joan Ford, Froize Inn vouchers were presented.

HENLEY PRE-SCHOOL Our Annual Quiz and Curry Night is on Friday 7 February. Tickets, which are £10, are now on sale and include curry and a dessert. This is a very popular event so be sure to get your ticket early by calling 07770 417080. Happy New Year to everyone. We welcome everyone back on Tuesday 7 January, ready to start the spring term. We are a small, rural, friendly setting based at Henley Community Centre. We pride ourselves on the high ratio of staff to children, providing maximum care and learning for the children. All our staff are highly trained and continue regular training to build their knowledge further. We provide an extensive range of resources and activities to suit all ages and abilities, ensuring all levels of development and play within the EYFS are explored. Parents play the most important role in children’s lives so we work closely together to ensure we work in partnership. We also hold stay and play sessions each term that are very well supported by parents/carers.

MY CARE RECORD Joining up information to deliver better care Health and care organisations across Suffolk and north east Essex are signing up to a shared framework called My Care Record which will make it easier to deliver more effective joined-up care from January 2020. Many people assume that care records are automatically accessible between organisations such as GP practices and hospitals; however this is often not the case. Over time, the NHS has been investing in secure systems that allow information to be viewed between organisations for care. My Care Record provides an agreement to ensure that information is safe and only used by professionals directly involved in an individual’s care. For example, a hospital-based doctor or a community nurse could view information from an individual’s GP record. Benefits of joining up information across organisations include quicker diagnosis and treatment. My Care Record will also support the best use of clinical time, with less duplication of paperwork, allowing more time for direct patient contact. Health and care professionals may access records from different services to improve the overall care an individual receives. In some areas, anonymous information from care records may also be used to help to plan and design how to deliver better services for individuals and the local population as a whole. Individuals who do not wish for their information to be shared can contact the health and care professional working with them at the organisation that holds their record. For more information visit: www.mycarerecord.org.uk

We currently have limited morning spaces available, but afternoon sessions are available. We accept eligible 30 hour funded children. These codes need to be in place the term before they are needed. Children can join us from the age of two and we accept government funded and fee paying children. We are open term time only from 9am-3pm. We have a well-supported Facebook page that provides lots of information and you can see what the children have been doing. It’s also another way to contact the setting directly. For further information please call 07979 468467 during session time (9am-3pm) or email our manager, Bridget Wyatt: enquiries@henleypreschool.com Bridget, Sarah and Kerry

SHLOMO’S BEATBOX ADVENTURE Following a blistering 2019 that included a 5-star run at the Edinburgh Festival, a breathtaking live performance on BBC’s Blue Peter and performing on the Other Stage at Glastonbury Festival, the record breaking beatboxer SK Shlomo returns to UK theatres with his sell-out family show, Shlomo’s Beatbox Adventure For Kids. Shlomo’s groundbreaking vocal skills gained him international recognition as a pioneering beatboxer, plus a Guinness World Record and the chance to work with famous musicians like Bjork, Ed Sheeran, Rudimental and Lily Allen. “Beatboxers can create the sound of an entire orchestra or rich electronic music – the drums, the instruments,the basslines and sound FX, all performed with just the voice,” says Shlomo. “In my kid’s show, I teach everyone how to become a superstar beatboxer. “It’s an amazingly empowering way for people from all walks of life to express themselves,” he explains. “I love teaching people how simple it is to make vocal rhythms. The kids always get excited but the parents have just as much fun!” Join this sonic superhero at the New Wolsey Theatre, Ipswich on Sunday 16 February and become one of his sidekicks in a world of funny sounds, brilliant noises and cool music, whether you’re aged one or 101!

SCHOOLS CLAYDON HIGH SCHOOL

WITNESHAM PRIMARY SCHOOL

It gives me great pleasure to share with you the events, activities and news in school, particularly as the month of December is always full of festivities and celebrations.

Last month we enjoyed a whole school Social Aspects Day as part of our PSHE programme. The children did lots of fun activities and explored friendships, bullying and the qualities that make each child unique.

At the end of November a group of language students visited the province of Seville in Spain to take part in a week-long exchange trip. Students took part in organised group activities during the day, staying with their host families each evening and over the weekend.

We looked at challenging stereotypes and discussed what jobs the children may do in the future. It was great to see the children working well together and having some interesting discussions.

This was a fantastic opportunity, allowing students to soak up the culture, practise the language and experience the wider world, developing key life skills. We look forward to the return exchange when the Spanish students visit us in March. Our former Year 11 students who left us in the summer, returned to Claydon High School on Tuesday 3 December for a presentation evening where they were awarded with their GCSE certificates and special subject achievement awards, recognising individual commitment and progress. We are all extremely proud of all aspects of their success and achievement and wish them all the very best for whatever the future brings. Families, friends, governors, teachers and students were treated to a festive evening of music on December 17 at the school’s Christmas Concert. The evening featured a fusion of musical theatre alongside some more traditional performances and involved more than 40 students across all year groups. The dedication, commitment and hard work from students and staff was certainly evident and my thanks and congratulations go to all involved. Once again students surpassed expectations for the ninth year running and created an amazing range of Christmas hampers which were donated to a local charity, The Chapman Centre, part of IHAG (Ipswich Housing Action Group) who provide relief for people in the community suffering from extreme financial poverty or homelessness. I am always impressed with the special effort our students make and would like to thank parents and carers for their help and contributions from home. If you would like to visit the school and see us in action, please come along to one of our open mornings. The next one is on Tuesday 28 January. Please telephone my PA, Ms J Saunders on 01473 836110 to book a place. Headteacher Maéve Taylor

We dressed up for Children in Need and raised £190.35 from donations. Class 3 also made biscuits to sell at playtime. Our Eco Team have launched their Design a Bug Hotel competition. The children are all really inspired by this and we are looking forward to seeing the entries. Class 1 made autumn crowns in our forest area at school. They helped each other measure, cut and tape their crowns. It was a joy to watch the children working together to help each other. Using double sided sticky tape they attached autumn leaves, seeds and berries. The results looked fantastic and the children very proudly wore them home. Class 2 have been playing games to practise number bonds and became detectives using clues to discuss whether they think toys are old or modern and explain their ideas. Class 3 have been learning about teeth in science and how to look after them and keep them healthy. They conducted an experiment to see what effect different liquids had on the shell of a hard-boiled egg. Class 4 have created pieces of artwork about each other and found out more about racism and discrimination. The children have enjoyed creating multimedia presentations in computing. Class 1 and 2 performed their Christmas play to parents and grandparents while Class 3 walked down to the residential home to sing Christmas songs to the residents. Our term concluded with the annual Christmas Carol Service at the local church. Each class took it in turns to sing, our signing club signed a couple of songs which they had been learning, and the children who have been learning to play the guitar played some of their favourite tunes. Our signing club were invited to sing carols in Sailmakers Shopping Centre in Ipswich, an event organised by Ipswich Deaf Children’s Society. Our new Federated Executive Headteacher, Mrs Harris, starts her new role this term. Both schools are looking forward to working with her under her leadership.

STONHAM ASPAL PRIMARY SCHOOL Goodness me, so much has happened in the last few weeks and there is so much more to come before the end of the term. Class 5 Greek Day Class 5 had an excellent day immersing themselves in all things Greek. They looked amazing; thank you for all the work that went into their costumes. Thank you too to the Class 5 staff for organising this day and the PTA for funding this event for the children. Samaritans Purse Appeal Thank you for supporting this appeal; we contributed more than 20 shoeboxes from our school. Children in Need An amazing total of £200.51 was raised by our non-uniform day on Friday 15 November. Thank you very much for supporting this wonderful cause.

Poppy Appeal Also incredible is the amount raised for the British Legion Poppy Appeal. The school raised £177.31 with an overall total of £562.60 from the district. Thank you very much for supporting this very important and worthwhile appeal. The children also marked this by holding a minute’s silence in memory of those who have suffered or lost their lives in conflict. Book Fair The book fair was extremely popular this year with £764 worth of items being purchased. This enabled each class to have £50 worth of books to add to their class book collections. Thank you very much. Rugby Tournament On Wednesday 13 November, Mrs Corsie and Mr Gunner took a team from Years 5 and 6 to the High Suffolk Rugby Tournament. The entire team played extremely well and won their part of the tournament. Huge congratulations to all the team. Headteacher Mrs Sharon Waldron

CHURCH NEWS CHURCH NEWS FROM SWILLAND AND ASHBOCKING BUSY, BUSY, BUSY For nearly a decade I taught on a very popular stress management course for headteachers and teachers. I often led the after-lunch slot on ‘time management’. This was after colleagues had enjoyed food and wine in our overheated training centre. My job was to keep these nice people awake, and where possible leave them with some new ideas. The exercise I chose contrasted a kind, inefficient, disorganised style with a more organised, effective, time managed approach to the school day. ‘Be gracious with people and ruthless with your use of time’, read one instruction in the textbook. Sadly many of my new found friends preferred the approach of the kind teacher who wandered into school late, helped a colleague jump start her car, then fixed the photocopier when it was down in his diary to prepare a lesson or mark some books for the following day. This fictional teacher went home to start on the paperwork, while the time efficient colleague had time to play with her children. The after-lunch sessions could be lively as teachers or heads defended their current lifestyle. Some teachers simply informed colleagues they didn’t want time to play with their children. Perhaps marking a few books, while watching the telly, might get them out of preparing the tea. Sometimes they were simply too busy to talk with their loved ones. These were busy people. We may be adding to our own sense of tiredness and unwellness by telling ourselves and others how busy we are. This January I challenge you to spend an hour with a trusted friend trying to get to grips with how you use your time. Back in November, I read an article by Bishop Mike suggesting that many of the things that we welcomed to alleviate our busyness have become ways of increasing our busyness. Bishop Mike argues that the technology that enables us to do things faster and more efficiently has changed our expectations of what we can do in a day, resulting in an increased pressure to be even busier. The downside of this increased efficiency may leave us feeling that there isn’t enough time and we are always running to stand still. We may be stuck in a paradox knowing that we cannot work 24/7. When we do have time to reflect, when we have time to be still, when we have time to read, meditate and pray, we may use the time for new distractions and activities to maintain the fiction that we are always busy. Sadly, we may find satisfaction and even status in always being busy. Bishop Mike warns us of being very wary of telling each other how busy we are. We may need to curb the urge to rush around and we may need to refute the idea that we are too busy to listen, or even too busy to spend time with each other. He challenges us to be on time and to take time for others. We are often asked to reflect on Jesus’ invitation to love our neighbours as ourselves. This invitation implies that we look after ourselves. Jesus may have taken it for granted that we look after ourselves. While I acknowledge the dangers of self-interest, I am not alone in arguing that we can help ourselves to help other people. Where is a balance in this? In her TED talk and her books, Brene Brown asks us to study the stories we tell ourselves. Her advice to all is that we should speak to ourselves like we are someone that we love. This January I will take down my old notes, seek out the new literature on resilience and take Bishop Mike’s advice to frame or start to manage my own busyness. I will also reread the gospels to trace how Jesus used the time he had with us. If we look at the Jesus’ lifestyle, we learn of a person who didn’t rush, took time for the things that were really significant and gave his full attention to the individuals he met. Jesus lived a busy life and when things got too busy Jesus took time out for prayer and meditation. While I naturally wish you a Happy New Year, I also wish you time to reflect on how you are using time this January. Now don’t tell me you haven’t got time to do this… maybe you’ll get around to it… or you maybe too busy… Or again, you’ll leave it until you have time to spare. Don’t take my musing seriously – look up at the warning on the Grundisburgh Church tower clock… tempus fugit… The Rev Bill Herbert

All welcome; suggested donation £1 per family. If you’d like to come, please let us know the names in advance so we can get the catering right and have fun together: mark@carlfordchurches.org LETTER FROM THE RECTOR Happy New Year to everyone and from me for the last time! It is a time of change for all of us, but it is also the season of Epiphany, which is all about journeys and being led to new places- moving out of comfort zones – into the unknown and discovering God perhaps where we least expected to find him. This Epiphany theme is being played out in various contexts across the benefice, sometimes affecting only one parish, at other times the whole benefice. We welcome Culpho into the Carlford family. There have always been close links between Culpho and Grundisburgh; they have shared a parish council for years, but we now welcome Culpho into the family. During the next few months, a number of churches will be holding services in places other than the main church building. Hasketon has a communion service in the village hall once a month. Burgh have been worshipping in the School Room during the coldest winter months for a number of years, and many of us have come to value that experience. This year Ashbocking will be holding a service in the home of the Pollards in the heart of the village and in Grundisburgh, because of building work, some services will be held in the Parish Room. This will be a different experience for many of us, but in the Epiphany story, the Magi discover the baby Jesus not in the palace where they first seek him, but in an ordinary house. God is to be found in every place. While services are taking place in churches, homes and public meeting places across the benefice, at Otley College new ways of being church are being explored and we welcome the Revd Sally Gaze as she settles into her new home in Otley village and together with the Revd Charlotte Cook is working to develop a Resource Church at the college. We hold them in our prayers as we enter 2020 and look forward to working in partnership with them. The biggest change by far will come with the appointment of a new incumbent. Please hold this process in your prayers over the next few months and please remember our ministry team and churchwardens as they prepare for the interregnum. A number of you have asked me if Mark Cresswell will be stepping into my shoes and applying for the post. Mark is an SSM, a Self Supporting Minister, which means he makes his living in secular employment and serves in the church in a voluntary capacity. He is here to serve in the Carlford Benefice for the foreseeable future. Please also remember me in your prayers too, along with my Mark, Mark Sanders. My last Sunday is on May 3 when there will be one service for the whole benefice in Grundisburgh. Please book that date. Before then there are four months of journeying together, continuing to discover where God is leading us and whatever changes may be going on, knowing that he is leading us- just as he led the Magi. The doors are open to come and talk to me, to Mark, indeed to any member of the ministry team or churchwardens, if you have any concerns. Please do get in touch. Reverend Clare Sanders

WITNESHAM BAPTIST CHURCH Dear Folks, New Year greetings to all readers. Depending on when you receive or read this, I ask the question – Have you taken down the Christmas decorations? The tradition of having to take them down by twelfth night dates back many years. It is only superstition that dictates so don’t allow it to dictate you. However, in many countries twelfth night is celebrated more than Christmas Day. In Orthodox (Greek/Russian) churches, January 6 is the day gifts are given to each other in commemoration of the wise men visiting Jesus and giving Him and Mary the gifts of Frankincense, Gold and Myrrh, gifts that express Kingship (gold) worship (frankincense) and burial (myrrh). Jesus the King of Kings, worthy of worship and crucified for us all. January 6 is also called Epiphany, the time remembered when Jesus was revealed to people from other countries – Gentiles/non-Jews. You may be surprised to know that we all can have an epiphany, a time when we realise and recognise Jesus as Son of God, Saviour. Like the star that guided the wise men to where Jesus was, it can be like a light bulb is switched on in the dark when we recognise and accept Jesus into our lives. Will 2020 be the year for your epiphany? The year ahead will hold good and bad things for us as a country, a world, individually or as families. We do not know what’s around the corner. I suspect that there will still be areas of unrest around the world, peoples not wanting to be reconciled with each other. It makes it hard to even contemplate there is a God, let alone one who is creator and thus sustainer of the world/universe. Yet if there isn’t, where do we get our moral values from, our sense of right and wrong or the basis of justice? I hope during this year to have a few discussion evenings where folk will be able to come along and look into these thoughts without obligation of ‘coming to church’. Watch this space for dates and times. Pastor Andrew JANUARY 2020 Morning Services begin at 11am (except when stated otherwise) Sunday 5 January: Morning Service, Pastor Andrew, including Holy Communion Sunday 12 January: Morning Service, Hazel Hunting Sunday 19 January: Team Ministry Sunday 26 January: Morning Service, Pastor Andrew Family Time Together: Every Sunday from 9.30-10.15am.

Every Wednesday from 9.30-11.30am: 3Cs Café for Coffee (or tea), Cake and Chat – all welcome Fridays 9.15-11.15am: Mums & Toddlers Group, starts again on January 10 Wednesday 8 January, 11.30am: Prayer Fellowship Wednesday 22 January, 11.30am: Bible Study In the church we have a collection box for FIND (Families in Need) and nonperishable food is very welcome.

The post office is in our conservatory on Tuesday afternoons and Thursday mornings. Please use this service to help keep it in the village.

The Churches of the United Benefice of Westerfield and Tuddenham St Martin with Witnesham

In Touch with WTW It’s Christmas until 5th January If you’ve already taken down your Christmas decorations, I’ve got news for you; Christmas doesn’t end until January 5th! January 6th is a major Christian holiday that many Christians know very little about: the Feast of the Epiphany. From the Greek word meaning ‘manifestation’, it celebrates the visitation of the Magi to the infant Jesus and His family, as well as their return to the world with the light they found. The Christmas season on the church calendar begins on Christmas Day and runs for twelve days, ending on January 5th. January 6th brings both the final story of Christmas and launches a new liturgical season, Epiphany.

The word ‘epiphany’ means ‘to show’ or ‘to make known’, and the Feast of Epiphany celebrates the arrival of the magi, or Three Kings, as some traditions call them. As recorded in Matthew 2, after a long and arduous journey, and guided by a mysterious star, these wise men find the Christ-child in Bethlehem. We don't know much about the magi, but the Bible tells us that when they saw the baby Jesus, they fell to their knees and worshipped Him, offering gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. From their example comes our practice of giving gifts at Christmas. Though most of us have shifted our gift-giving to December 25th, Epiphany still reminds

us of truths central to our Christian faith so is still worthy of our attention. However, Epiphany isn’t so much about the gifts of the magi, but about an even greater gift—the fulfilment of a promise for the long-awaited messiah, Jesus Christ.

Could you sponsor the church floodlights to commemorate a birthday, anniversary or special event or to remember a loved one?

At Epiphany we’re reminded that the promise of redemption has always been for the whole world. God came not only to His own, but to us outsiders— like the Magi—the lost souls who had never even heard about God’s promise. That’s the reason Epiphany is also known as the Manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles, and why this feast day is a particularly joyful celebration for us all. Epiphany is the fulfilment of Isaiah 9:2: ‘The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light.’ However, here’s another critical message in the Epiphany event. One of the gifts of the Magi, myrrh, was used for burials. As the famous carol goes, ‘its bitter perfume/breathes of life of gathering gloom/Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding dying/ Sealed in a stone-cold tomb.’ Jesus didn’t come to Earth to stay a cute baby boy, but to grow up, manifest God’s love through words and deeds, and ultimately die on the cross to atone for the sins of the entire world. Starting with Epiphany, the next few months of the church year follow the Son of God as He journeys to the cross and draws us ever closer to the heart of God. Let us journey with Him. Please don't kick Jesus out with the wrapping paper and decorations. Carol
