Letter From the Rector Dear Friends Did you know that harvest festival as we know it today originated from the small Cornish town of Morwenstow. In 1834 the vicar of Morwenstow, the Revd Robert Hawker, announced that there would be a special Sunday devoted to thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest. Despite its recent humble beginnings Harvest Festival has become one of the major Christian festivals. Yet the idea of a thanksgiving festival to celebrate the harvest goes back to the earliest biblical times. After the escape of the people of Israel from Egypt around 1500 BC God, through Moses, commanded the nation of Israel to hold three annual festivals (Exodus 23:14-17); one to celebrate their escape from Egypt, one to celebrate the beginning of the harvest (with the first fruit from the fields), and another to celebrate the end of the harvest period. This emphasis given to the celebration of harvest so early in the bible demonstrates its fundamental importance in our relationship as human beings with God our maker. He is the creator and sustainer of all things, and he provides us with the very things we need to live. Whatever your understanding of the creation story in Genesis 1, one of its basic truths is that God provided us with the food we need to survive. God said “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.” (Genesis 1:29) Again at the end of the story of Noah God gives this promise; “As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease” (Genesis 8:22). We take the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the homes we live in mostly for granted. Some of you who are still involved in farming will be more aware than others of the risks involved in growing food crops, and the partnership that exists between human effort and nature. This harvest let us all remember that despite our great human achievements, science and technology we still depend on God’s provision in nature for the

food we eat to actually grow. So take a moment this month to come and join us as we give thanks to God for the harvest.

Book Review Cat Psalms – prayers my cats have taught me

By Herbert Brokering, LionHudson, £7.99 "Cats help me pray," says Herbert Brokering. This collection of whimsical, insightful psalms, or prayers, is based on Brokering's observations of cats he has known through his life - farm cats, house cats, alley cats. Each psalm expresses an observation about a cat's nature, written in the "voice" of the cat, followed by a prayer in which the human spirit speaks of its cat-like nature to God. Cat Psalms is for those who wish to pray more deeply, with more imagination and understanding, and offers fresh ways to see ourselves and new ways to pray.

THE MYSTERY OF THE ICONS ON THE PILLAR I have wondered for some time about the framed picture I see every time I come to St Michael’s. It has the look of the High Renaissance about it but it seems incomplete. Now, I am no art buff but I did suspect that this painting would have been by one of the triumvirate of glorious Italian artists from the cinquecento, that is the 15th century. Leonardo da Vinci, Michaelangelo or Raphael. Sure enough after a little research in my mammoth volume “Renaissance, Art and Architecture during the 15th and 16th century”, it proved to be the case. It is one of Raphael's most important paintings The Sistine Madonna named after the church of San Sisto in Piacenza, for whose altar it was painted in 1513-14. The painting was later acquired by King Augustus 3rd of Saxony for his collection in Dresden. It was hidden underground in a Swiss tunnel during the war, but was eventually seized by the Red Army and taken to Moscow post war. In 1955 after the death of Stalin the painting was returned to Germany “for the purpose of strengthening the friendship between the two nations.” It is now back in Dresden and can be viewed at the Gemadergalerie Alte Meister in that city. Back to the painting and its deep meaning. I will quote from my volume for this: “Like the Mona Lisa this painting presents a mystery. The virgin stands on clouds and stares into space with an almost petrified and mournful gaze, while the infant Jesus also looks terrified and nestles against his mother for protection. What is the reason for their terror and sadness? Is St Sixtus pointing at us the viewers? A number of famous writers have expressed their views on the subject. The surprising and logical explanation was revealed not long ago by art historian Andreas Prater, who discovered that the altarpiece was once displayed in the choir of the church of San Sisto behind a choir screen that no longer survives. On this was a cross. The mystery is thus solved: Mary and the infant Jesus were staring out of the altarpiece, in its original position, at a crucifix (at which St Sixtus also points.) The fearful expression of mother and child is therefore understandable. Jesus sees his own death and his mother sees the suffering of her child.”

So there you have it. I have included both the St Michaels print and the complete and gloriously coloured copy from my Renaissance volume. Hope you have enjoyed a walk down one of the many mysterious roads of artistic grandeur of that period. There are lots of other stories to tell.

150 Years of Reader Ministry – and Julie Hassall!

On Saturday, October 15th at 2.15 pm in Chester Cathedral there will be a very special service. We will be celebrating the 150th anniversary of the reinstatement of Reader ministry in the Church of England – and our very own Julie Hassall will be licensed as a Reader in that service! She will be joining our existing Readers: Christine Hamill-Stewart, Tony Woode, Steve Broadfoot, Jacqui Briscoe, Anne Latham and Duncan Goodwin in this very important ministry which adds so much to the life of St. Michael’s and St. John’s. So who are Readers? They are people who are called to lay ministry in the Church. They go through a selection process to test their calling, and then do three years of theological training, starting with the ‘Foundations for Ministry’ year. And it is very hard work, and a huge commitment in time and energy! (It has got harder since I did it!). But then they receive a Licence from the Bishop, which gives them authority to preach God’s word and to lead services and teach both in our church, and else-where if requested. It is a ministry which is seen as a bridge between the church and the community, as many Readers, like Julie, have full-time jobs. By being the people they are, they bring the love of Jesus and the encouragement of Christian witness to the workplace and the people there. So we are thrilled that Julie will be joining our Ministry Team as the newest Reader. We have already benefitted so much from her fresh approach to ministry, and her gifts of getting alongside people. So do please pray for her, and come along to the Cathedral on October 15th to give thanks for Reader ministry in general, and for Julie in particular.

Liz Woode, Deanery Sub-Warden of Readers, Middlewich Deanery.

Tour of Britain Cycle Race

There was great excitement in Middlewich on Tuesday 6th September, when the Tour of Britain cycle race passed through the town. Roads (specially mended) were closed for the occasion: The cyclists rode right past St. Michael’s, cheered on by local well-wishers and excited schoolchildren (oh– and excited family worker Jeremy). A few enterprising folks were allowed to climb the church tower and get a bird’s-eye view of the proceedings. Here is one of the photos Alastair Griffiths took of the race.

Well done cyclists.

And well done Middlewich!

Book Review Really Bad Girls Of The Bible

By Liz Curtis Higgs, Authentic, £10.99

The is the second in a popular series of books that features the author’s unique brand of "girlfriend theology." It examines various biblical women gone bad and the lessons their lives can teach readers. Mistakes in the lives of Bathsheba, Jael, Herodias, Athaliah, Tamar, and other ‘really bad’ girls can help women today find their way back to a better path.

Emergency Food For Local People

Matthew 25:35 "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in"

On behalf of the Foodbank can I say a big thank you to all who are donating food. Unfortunately we have a record number of shortages this week as the Food-bank continues to feed clients from Middlewich and the surrounding areas. The good news is that, thanks to your tremendous generosity we are feeding them, but as soon as foods in short supply come in they are going out again and stocks are not building up.

We currently have none of the following: cream crackers, sponge puddings, cordial, couscous, noodles, savoury rice, toilet rolls and deodorant. We have very low stocks of the following: shampoo, stuffing, tinned fruit, tinned meats, jelly, angel delight, ketchup/brown sauce, blue long life milk and long life fruit juice.

We still have large stocks of pasta, baked beans, tinned tomatoes, tinned vegetables, tinned fish and cereal, so could you ask that people concentrate on our shortages please.

Thank you once again for your continuing support Elaine Reynolds On behalf of the foodbank.

Don’t Forget Operation Christmas Child

A small shoebox can have a big impact. What goes into the box is fun, but what comes out of it is eternal. Be a part of changing children’s lives all over the world in Jesus’ name through the power of a simple gift with Operation Christmas Child.

Shoeboxes left in church for filling have been going fast! Please help to make a needy child’s life better if you can.

Pray Most importantly, pray for the child who will receive your gift. You can also include a personal note and photo of yourself or your group. Posters and leaflets in church and No. 28 , boxes to church or No.28 by 6th November please. Contact Margaret English 01606 834471 ([email protected]) for more information.

CHILDREN’S SOCIETY BOX OPENING.

This year’s box opening will take place during the first 2 weeks of November. The boxes can be taken and dropped off at either St. Michael’s, Middlewich, or St. John’s Byley. They can also be left at No. 28 (The parish centre) or at 29 King Street, Middlewich. If you require your box to be collected please phone David or Miriam Sant on 01606 832583. Your Box will be emptied, counted and a receipt issued (you will find it stuck on the bottom of your box). Please collect your box after emptying. Once again the Children's Society are being stretched financially due to increasing numbers of children needing the Society’s help. We only look after Children in England & Wales as other areas of the UK have their own organisations. No child is ever turned away regardless of their race, colour or creed. We deal with runaways, refugees, homeless chil-dren, and also those in our young offenders institutions. Please help by giving as much as you can. If you would like to have a house box please contact David or Miriam Sant on the above number.
