173 years ago on 4th July 2018 Thomas John Barnardo was born in Dublin, Ireland, the son of a furrier - a strongly religious family originally from Germany.

By his twenties, Barnardo started opening schools for orphans left destitute by an outbreak of Cholera and by the time of his death at the age of 60 his organisation looked after 8,500 children in 96 locations.

Barnardo’s still exists today of course and was recently quoted as running some 900 local services and is reckoned to be the largest UK children’s charity spending some £200m per annum.

Pastoral Le er & Church Meetings Undeserved loving ~ not easy!

A classic illustration of this comes from the life of Corrie ten Boom. For helping the oppressed through the war, this Dutch lady was interned along with her sister in a concentration camp to endure unspeakable harassment, hardship and torture, from which her sister died.

Emotionally scarred for life, she was able to cope with it as time went on.

Years later in a meeting in Germany, she gave the Bible message and as people came up to shake hands with her, here came a man whom she instantly recognised as that same guard whose cruelty had resulted in the death of her sister. He said, “I’m the one who mistreated you two in the concentration camp, but I’ve repented of my sins and I’ve received Jesus as my Saviour. Will you forgive me?”

We can’t fully understand the depth of feeling and revulsion, not to say hatred, that rose up as the horrible scenes and memories of the concentration camp flashed before her mind. She thought, “Impossible. I cannot do this.” The man, standing before her, pleading for forgiveness. Her own heart filled with atrocious memories, she prayed, ‘Dear Jesus, help me now; help me to forgive this man’ and she found her mood changing, as she reached out her hand

and looked him in the eye saying, “Yes, I do forgive you, and I love you for Jesus’ sake.” That’s Calvary love in action!

Now friends, we don’t have experiences quite that stark and heart-rending, although some of you’ve been through some pretty bitter things ~ a relative who was always cruel; a wayward child that hurt you terribly; an unfaithful husband or wife; an impossible boss that prevented promotion; some dreadful tragedy etc, and there’s a deep hurt there. If you wanted to be bitter, plenty of sources exist and a lot of people succumb to it at that point. The philosophers have concluded that the whole world is unfair and it’s just a package of sorrow, bitterness, unfairness and hurts. To live is to suffer ~ that’s what they say.

Let’s come with the Bible and Christian faith to such a scene. You’re reading this and thinking, perhaps bitterly, “What does he know about what I feel? Has he gone through what I’ve gone through?”

And you know, of course, you’re right! I don’t know all about you. But I do know this ~ and Hallelujah for it ~ God knows and God understands and God cares!

And God is able to put in your heart His love instead of human bitterness. The usual atmosphere of the unsaved heart is bitterness: “we were once foolish, passing our days in malice and envy,

hated by others and hating one another” (Titus 3). But God has an answer.

Can you take that in? Instead of being bitter about life and a victim of it, you can be a victor over it. “Thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere” (2 Cor. 2). After trusting in Jesus Christ, God takes the pressures, troubles, hurts and heartaches that come your way, makes you a victor over them and by His Spirit, makes you like wonderful, heavenly perfume to other people. That’s what the Bible says. Please take it to yourself.

How does it all start? "And Jesus said: ‘I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven’” (Matt.18). “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away, behold, the new has come and all this is from God . . .” (2 Cor.5).

Words by the Wayside â&#x20AC;&#x153;For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.â&#x20AC;?

(Matthew 15:19)

Reader, our hearts are desperately wicked, we are all sinners by nature and by practice, separated from God, and we will not escape the damnation of Hell without the Saviour which is Christ the Lord. All have sinned and all fall short of Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s righteousness and we cannot save ourselves. Jesus Christ died on Calvaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cross for your sin and rose again from the dead three days later by the mighty power of God, and He is the Christianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Righteousness. Are you righteous before God? Have you received Jesus Christ as your Saviour? Are you a Christian?

What’s on, Clubs, Eating out, Trades Listings and much more...

Parliament Blog & Tide Times The clock is ticking on sellers who impose unfair delivery charges on people in Moray, just because of our postcode. I recently contacted online retailer Amazon who I spoke with after a Scottish Affairs Committee where they gave evidence on this unfair practice. I have been passing on cases of constituents faced with extra delivery costs, despite the goods being advertised with free UK delivery. The retailer has made it clear to third party sellers that this is not an acceptable practice. I have been in touch with them again after it transpired that a resident in Hopeman was slapped with delivery charge of £70 for a product that costs less than a fiver.

Clearly this shocking charge to deliver to Moray was in breach of Amazon’s code of conduct. After I raised this case with Amazon they investigated and concluded that the seller acted outwith their new code of practice, warned them and the correct delivery charge is now advertised. I’m encouraged by the cross-party efforts to address this issue and I will continue to fight this until retailers get the message loud and clear. In Moray we say no to unfair delivery charges.

As Minister for Childcare & Early Years, I am absolutely delighted that 2018 is Scotland’s Year of Young People. This is a global first – a ground-breaking, themed year that will celebrate all our young people in Scotland, wherever they live.

Events are already underway across Scotland and there are loads of great opportunities for young folk to get involved here in the Highlands. You can find out information about events happening in your areas here: yoyp2018.scot.

If there is one aspiration that I hope we might share for 2018, it is to ensure that our young people feel and believe that they are valued, wanted and vital to our country’s future and that their voices are heard and listened to.

For the last few years I have been working side by side with local ambulance staff to campaign for an increase in resources in Moray, so I was extremely pleased that the Scottish Ambulance Service has announced is set to recruit eight new ambulance staff locally.

Moray’s ambulance crews have been under significant pressure over the last few years due to an increase in demand for services and more hospital transfers having to be carried out between Dr Gray’s and ARI. Over recent years, I’ve been regularly meeting SAS management and raising this campaign at the highest levels of government to support the local ambulance staff, so I’m delighted that our efforts have paid off.

These additional posts, alongside the end to call working at Dufftown have the potential to really transform the service in Moray and will help deliver the best possible care for patients.

Our local ambulance staff deserve a huge amount of credit for the work they’ve put in to making the case for increased resources, their sustained efforts and determination have been central to improvements being delivered.

SpotLIGHT Garden

Brought to you by:

Watering Lawns – in Scotland - really?

Yes really, especially along the sandy soils and low rainfall of the Moray coast. The last two springs have seen prolonged dry spells in our area, and this is not unusual. We often get prolonged high pressure influence at this time of year, which cuts off the prevailing westerly fronts coming in off the Atlantic. It might not always seem warm and dry as we sometimes get a cold haar coming ashore. But even then, any rainfall amounts can be negligible.

Watering lawns is important at this time for a number of reasons. They will quickly turn brown and dry looking, as do golf course fairways and rough, and other public grassed areas, Lawns are trying to wake-up after a winter hibernation and may have been traumatised by scarifying and raking activity in the off-season. Many gardeners will put down a spring feed (as do GreenThumb) and this will need activated by watering. No watering, and nothing much will happen.

Many of you will have sprinklers, but they are usually in the garage! Get them out and hook them up. Most lawns will appreciate a watering for 20 mins each evening so they stay damp through the night. Daytime watering is of less

value as more is lost to evaporation. Nowadays, you can readily buy a timer for £20 which will automatically turn sprinklers and hoses on and off. In Scotland, our water consumption is paid for in our community charge. In England, typically water is metered and charged for. We are lucky, it’s pre-paid, so why not use it.

GreenThumb also have a Water Conserver product which can significantly increase the time water molecules are held in the lawn. It works on a similar principle to products for planters and hanging baskets. There are more details on the website at www.greenthumb.co.uk.

You can get more information and pics at www.greenthumb.co.uk, or at www.rhs.org.uk (Royal Horticultural Society).

Although GreenThumb is a multi-award winning national franchise, and is the runaway leader in the sector with one million lawns being treated, we are the family-run local franchise covering the wider Moray Firth area.

This year is the 90th anniversary of the first ever Forres Highland Games and with the exception of some of the years during WW2 the Games have been held in Grant Park annually each summer ever since. The concept of the initial 1928 committee known then as Forres & District Amateur Athletic Association was to hold a summer event to promote sports, traditional culture and give the people of the local area a fun day out. Today the Games still promote those values and are as popular and well supported as ever.

The official opening will be carried out by this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Games Chieftain local farmer Mr Colin Manson. Colin grew up and went to school in the local area and is widely known in farming circles throughout the North of Scotland. He has been a long standing supporter and helper of Forres Highland Games over the past two decades.

During the afternoon the pipe bands will be competing for best march and smartest turnout. The highlight of the afternoon is the Massed Pipe Bands marching around the arena to the skirl do the pipes and swish do the kilts. A sight and sound not to be missed and one definitely for the photo album.

There are numerous displays and trade stands, as well as hot and cold food, ice cream and a licenced beer tent.

Forres Highland Games are a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (Reg Charity No : SC046639). The staging of the Games is only achievable through the dedication of the unpaid hard working Games Committee, volunteer judges and local helpers, and the loyal support and generosity of local benefactors and businesses.

Scotland is celebrating the Year of Young People 2018 and in support of this the Games hope to have a local Junior Chieftain in their midst on Games Day. The best of track and field athletes, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;heaviesâ&#x20AC;?, highland dancers, pipers, grass track cyclists and pipe bands will compete and entertain the spectators in what is sure to be a colourful and enjoyable Scottish highland gathering.

Local highland games have over many years been a nurturing ground for developing young athletes who have gone on to represent their country at international athletics meetings such as The Commonwealth Games.

Nairnshire Farming Society

NAIRN SHOW 2018 Saturday 28th July sees Nairnshire Farming Society hold its Annual show at Kinnudie Farm, Auldearn.

Agriculture has come a long way since our first Cattle show some 199 years ago, but this annual day out is a firm favourite with competitors and spectators alike. With 150 cattle, 300 sheep and 100 horses all competing for the coveted ‘Champions of Champion’ title it’s a competition not to miss!

The competitive action is not just confined to those exhibiting animals. With dedicated sections for horticulture, produce, baking and handicrafts, honey and even wine, there is a class for every talent! Schedules are available on request and locally around Nairn.

or toys for the kids on it, our aisles really do have something for everyone.

Our main ring will keep everyone entertained with displays from Nairn Fire Crew, Galcantray Carriage driving team, a working dog display and a Vintage tractor parade. Come and cheer on your local club as they compete in our new Arnold Clark Young Farmer’s Challenge, it’s going to be messy!!

As well as our chainsaw carver and bird of prey display, your little ones will love to meet and cuddle the gorgeous team of professional donkeys, also on hand for CHILDREN'S rides.

Jenny’s Donkeys team will be with us, so please do go and say hello!

We are joined by a host of local businesses keen to showcase their products and services. So whether your shopping list has a brand new tractor, garden furniture, locally produced meat, a new handbag

Adult Fiction

Strange Neeting By Susan Hill Set in WWI, a young officer returns to the Front to find his division almost unrecognisable. His commanding officer is an alcoholic, there is a new adjutant and several of his close friends have been killed. But there is David Barton. As yet untouched and unsullied by war, fresh-faced and radiating charm. As the pair approach the front line, bloodied by the deaths of their fellow soldiers, their friendship deepens. But as the reality of the violence sets in, the men know that they will soon be separated... A poignant novel on human love as war and the pity of war.

From helping readers identify the enemy, to safeguarding the vulnerable areas of their lives, the impact of anxiety is examined, and readers given some tools to fight back - whether with medication, therapy, CBT, coping techniques, or simply with a dark sense of humour.

The Garden TOM ANGEL IS A GARDEN DESIGNER AND CHARTERED HORTICULTURIST BASED IN AVIEMORE. TOM PROVIDES

This supplies nutrients that will stimulate plants’ roots, without creating lots of lush new foliage. The danger with stimulating foliage growth from mid-summer onwards is that tender leaves get hit by early frosts.

L

ooking out on my garden as I write this, I am enjoying the spectacle of a very happy Clematis montana, a vigorous deciduous climber that is looking great this year. It is funny how garden plants can have good and bad years, and a timely reminder for me not to panic when some of my other plants are not doing so well. It seems that some plants enjoyed the cold winter we had – some internal plant processes actually require a cold winter to stimulate growth and flowering in a process known as vernalisation. Other plants in my garden are not having their finest years, but I am keeping them watered and fed and am keeping the faith that they will come back stronger than ever in time.

However, ever-watchful of pests and diseases, I do a daily tour of the garden to keep an eye on any issues that might suggest a deeper problem. I recently made the discovery that rabbits enjoy eating my Rudbeckia fulgida, so that adds to the list of purchases I will not be making again!

In the months of spring I happily add nitrogen fertiliser to my garden, in the form of granules and also well-rotted horse manure. However, from July I stop this and will only apply less nitrogen-heavy fertilisers such as bonemeal.

40

Finally, a few tips for your lawn. During the height of the growing season you may find you need to mow your lawns weekly, but as July moves on you will find growth slowing.

Regardless, the key rule is not to let the weeds set seed, and leaving a gap of over two weeks between cuts normally means this happens. If weeds set seed they will gradually outcompete the grass plants in your lawn. In times of dry weather, do not forget to raise the blades on your mower to reduce stress on the lawn. (Indeed, it is best not to cut your grass too short generally for the same reason). In times of wet weather, don’t worry too much about not mowing damp grass with your petrol mower. If it needs doing, just cut it – any muddy marks or tears to the grass are only temporary, and unless you’re wanting a super-formal lawn you do not need to worry too much.
