Vicarage Notes

Thought for the month

My predecessor wrote 100 years ago: “ if our Christianity is to be worth the name, and our churchmanship to be real and assume a practical shape, then without a doubt, we do need these quieter times of prayer .”  The Rev. Fred Garrard of Brailes was looking towards Lent and reminding his readers that the foundation for a necessarily active faith was prayerful reflection.

As we come to terms with the earthquake that has wreaked such havoc in Haiti, there has been an outpouring of generous support for the Disasters Emergency Committee, which includes the Red Cross, Christian Aid and Oxfam in the 13 charities that are its members.  There will, of course, be the huge challenge of co-coordinating relief.

May our inward faith or philosophy be always full of compassion and a desire for the common good!

God bless,
