The Vicar’s Letter:

The Vicar’s Letter: July 2010

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

  The older we get the faster the year seems to shoot by. It does not seem a half year away from the photographs of the impassable Glapwell Hill in the snow. Life itself seems to be flashing past as we go through the nostalgia of childhood and youthful memories that seem only so recent in life’s experiences.

  Perhaps we can gain some wisdom from the Well Dressings this year. A beautiful art form, that is so creative and conveying a message, traditionally of scripture is a thank offering and a prayer. Sadly, impressive though they are they live but a week before they are committed to memory and photographs.

  Our lives are enriched, however for the experience of them, both in the creation and in the witness.

  So are our lives. We too, “have but a short time to live” but we pray that in that short time we will have played our part in building the Kingdom of God, if being a medium for the passing on of God’s message in our living, and enabling others to witness the beauty and creativeness of God in the Love we show to each and every other child of God amongst whom we live and move.

  Yours in Christ: Tony Vicar
