The Anglican Parish of
Kingsley North – Woodvale
- St Anselm of Canterbury -
MAY 2015
Dear faithful Anselmians
May holds a magnificent montage of feasts and festivals, high days and holy days.
Thursday 14th May marks Ascension Day. Ascension Day is one of the earliest Christian festivals dating back
to the year 68. According to the New Testament in the Bible, Jesus Christ met several times with his disciples
during the forty days after his resurrection to instruct them how to carry out his teachings. It is believed that
on the 40th day he took them to the Mount of Olives, where they witnessed Jesus’ ascension to heaven.
Ascension Day marks the end of the Easter season. It occurs ten days before Pentecost. We will
commemorate Ascension Day at our Thursday morning Eucharist. Please join us if you are able.
Sunday 24th May is Pentecost Sunday. According to the Bible, it was on the fiftieth day after Easter when
the apostles prayed together and the Holy Spirit descended on them. They received the “gift of tongues” –
the ability to speak in other languages – and immediately began to preach about Jesus Christ to Jewish
people from all over the world, who flocked to Jerusalem for the Feast of Shavuot. Pentecost also marks the
birth of the Christian Church. It is always a festive, jubilant day of worship – join us for the feast!
Sunday 31st May is set as Trinity Sunday, the day on which the Church specifically honours the Holy Trinity
(Father, Son and Holy Spirit). The concept of the trinity can never be completely understood or rationalized,
but it is clearly taught in Scripture. Understanding of all scriptural doctrine is by faith which comes through
the work of the Holy Spirit; therefore, it is appropriate that this mystery is celebrated the first Sunday after
Pentecost, when the outpouring of the Holy Spirit first occurred.
Bishop Tom will be with us. Some of our members will be confirmed, others will be re-affirming their
confirmation vows, and some from other Christian traditions will be received into the Anglican Church.
Usually (and cheekily) the rector delegates the sermon on this day to the curate, and following this trajectory
the bishop has on this occasion allocated it to me! Oh well, best I start pondering this greatest mystery once
more …
Many blessings! Gill

The Book of Sirach is a work of ethical teachings from approximately
200 to 175 BCE. Sirach is part of what is considered the Apocrypha, and
is accepted as part of the Christian biblical canons by Roman Catholics,
Eastern Orthodox, and most of Oriental Orthodox. The Anglican Church
does not accept Sirach as canonical but should be read "for example of
life and instruction of manners; but yet doth not apply them to establish
any doctrine." (Canon VI. Of the Sufficiency of the Holy Scriptures for salvation. The
Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion".)

ADMISSION TO HOLY
COMMUNION
Has your child been baptised, but is
not yet admitted to receive Holy
Communion?
Gill and Mandy will be conducting
the next Admission to Holy
Communion preparation classes on
Friday 5th June in the evening and
Saturday 6th June in the morning.
Please let Gill or Mandy know if you
and your child would like to
participate. Attendance on both
days is compulsory. The service of
admission to Holy Communion will
take place on Sunday 7th June at
9am. Children should at least be
turning 6 this year to participate.
(Children who are not yet
baptised but are ready to
receive Holy Communion
can be prepared for
baptism. This would
involve a few extra sessions
with Mandy. The baptisms would take
place the same day as the admission to
Holy Communion.
NAMING OUR BOAT
Nineteen suggestions were received as
possible names for our boat.
Those present at church on Sunday
19th April – our Patronal Festival –
voted for their preference, and The
Canterbury Belle was chosen!
The Canterbury Belle was Margaret
Fraser’s suggestion. She drew her
inspiration from Canterbury Bells, also
known as the bell flower. These are an
annual or biennial flowering plant of
the genus Campanula.
In floriography,
it represents
gratitude, or faith
and constancy.
TOP 5 BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS
(from Larissa Chatwin)
Falling Upward by Richard Rohr. An easy to read short narrative,
this book offers some simple truths about getting older and wiser.
Illustrating how challenges and hardships are a necessary component
of the journey of life Might be helpful at times when you are facing an
uphill battle in life.
Moment of Christ by John Main. A collection of talks by the world’s
pre-eminent exponent of Christian meditation given shortly before his
death. It provides a scriptural context for meditation, pointing to the
Christian meditator’s goal of experiencing God and living a prayerful
life. This book helped me to distinguish Christian meditation from
Eastern traditions, and provides a simple and sensible introduction to
a concept that may be unfamiliar to some.
Christian Mystics by Matthew Fox. Fox provides lengthy quotes
from Christian mystics and more recent thinkers in the mystic
tradition, adding his own commentary and questions to stimulate
further enquiry by the reader. Fox is a controversial figure and I
certainly didn’t agree with all his opinions. But you don’t need to see
eye-to-eye to learn from someone, and many of Fox’s inclusions
helped me understand scripture and Christian concepts in new ways,
which provide scope for further thought and application.
The Problem of Pain by CS Lewis. This author needs no introduction,
but I must admit that apart from the Narnia series this is the only CS
Lewis I have read. The subject matter jumped out at me – why is there
suffering in the world? I didn’t agree with everything Lewis said – his
theory of the “fall from grace” in the context of human evolution was
way too speculative – but his conclusions provide a foundation for
understanding our life and world.
On Sight and Insight by John M. Hull (other editions have the title
Touching the Rock). Possibly the most important book I have ever
read. Anglican theologian John Hull, who is blind, has written widely
on religion, disability, and the interactions between the two. In this
book he talks in great depth about his journey into physical blindness,
the daily challenges of life as a blind person, and most crucially, the
understanding he has reached about life and religion as both Christian
academic and person with disability. Hull goes far beyond the massmarket paperbacks of the “inspiration” industry, and does not engage
in the aggressive fundamentalism of some other disabled Christian
authors. Instead, he offers wisdom and insight from his personal
experience and contemplation of a life that is both profoundly difficult
and intensely meaningful.

BARNABAS GROUPS ARE COMING!
The apostle Barnabas was a first century missionary companion
of St Paul. The Hebrew name meaning of Barnabas is SON Of
ENCOURAGEMENT. Paul writes in 1 Thessalonians 5: 11
“Therefore ENCOURAGE one another and build each other up”
All parish members are being divided into Barnabas Groups.
Each BARNABAS GROUP will be have a Pastoral Area Leader
(PAL). Their role is to provide COMPANIONSHIP and
ENCOURAGEMENT.
Each PAL will report back to the Pastoral Care Team any pastoral
care needs that arise for the members in their group.
The Pastoral Care Team will then endeavour to offer care and
support in whatever way is needed.
A NOTE FROM BRONYA SMYTHE
A big thank you to my parish
family for prayers, cards, phone
calls, meals provided and
transport to worship services. I
feel very blessed to be part of a
caring and loving community.
Bronya
A NOTE FROM
EILEEN WAYMAN
To all my dear St Anselm’s family
and friends.
When I first came to St Anselm’s
I really didn’t know what to
expect. What I found on that
first day was incredible warmth,
acceptance, and lots of friendly
faces. Nobody judged me,
everybody made me feel
welcome.
I want to thank you all for your
support, love, and friendship
over this last year or so. You
truly live up to the real definition
of a church family.
It is such a privilege to be part of
this community.
I thank God every day for you all.
Please pray that God will richly bless
this new ministry as we launch our
BARNABAS GROUPS
Blessings and love,
Eileen
Thank you.

MAY MISSION GIVING
At the meeting of the Parish Council on Tuesday 14 th May, it was decided to offer the balance of our 2014
– 2015 Mission Giving budget to a parish in our Diocese which has considerable financial needs.
In consultation with the Archbishop and Bishops, it was decided that the parish of North Midlands would
be the recipient. Bishop Jeremy wrote ‘thank you for your sacrificial giving’.
North Midlands is a shared ministry; a collaboration between the Anglican and Uniting Churches.
They have three worship centres - All Saints (Coorow), Holy Apostles (Carnamah) and Trinity (Three
Springs). There are monthly Anglican and Uniting Communion services in all three centres, all conducted
by The Reverend Jill Gleeson, their Parish Priest. Her ministry is also shared with Morawa-Perenjori parish.
Jill writes: “Our congregation sizes are very small and made up of Christians of many denominations. Most
other denominations are not meeting any longer in the towns, so we come together and rejoice in our
common love of God and commitment to spreading the Gospel to the towns and farms in the area.
We see ourselves as a sign of hope, where there is much isolation and loss. We are there to assist people
in any way they need, and provide support to North Midlands District Health campus, and provide financial
assistance when asked. A major role we play is in pastoral care support, especially in providing funeral and
memorial services. We are currently hoping to establish a Men’s Shed and possibly a Community Garden
onsite at Carnamah and to continue growing in faith, hope and love and learning how to best share that
with the towns that we worship in.”

OUR PEOPLE
EPIPHANY STARS -
From Lauren Lawson
When Gill started her sermon about prayer and focus I was thrilled at
the prospect of having somewhere to direct my attention as it had
resonated with me the whole year before when Gill would talk about
'intentional' - her word from the year before.
But when I read my star at first I was a little perplexed - 'Peacefulness'. Did God not know my current
household, it is the antithesis of peaceful! I am constantly surrounded by the gorgeous chaos of my two
small boys and all that loud joy and spirit they bring, peace is something I often pray for but not something
I think I receive.
I mulled this over and tried to work out what God was telling me and it was in a moment of utter mayhem
when I felt I had lost control of the reins and nothing was getting done that it hit me. In a moment where I
stopped amidst the chaos of my house, messy, dinner not cooked, children not bathed, Eli squealing and
attempting to ride the poor dog like she was a horse and Chaz dancing to music and then loudly chastising
Eli that I said out loud 'Where on Earth can I find peace in this!'.
But I realised God was not saying that I needed for my environment to be peaceful but for ME to be peaceful.
Inner peace. Peace with myself. It doesn't matter what is happening around me, or anyone, if we stop and
find inner peace we can hear God and feel God and know that through what feels like chaos there is order
and there is life and most of all there is love - and what could be more important that love.
So if you, like me, ever feel overwhelmed by life, stop and listen and you too will feel God's inner peace. It
isn't always easy to hear as our own anxieties and emotions try to cloud it but he is always there, ready to
help, when we are ready to listen.

FIRST THIRD MINISTRY
ST ANSELM – ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY 1033 - 1109:
Last month on the 19th April, we celebrated the feast of our Patron Saint Anselm. St Anselm was an
Archbishop of Canterbury and is a great saint to have as our patron. His symbol is the boat or ship – twice
he was exiled from England and travelled by sea to Rome because he refused to compromise on issues of
faith. The ship also represents the ‘spiritual independence’ of the church. The name ‘Anselm’ has its roots in
the German language and means ‘protected by God’. Anselm was a great intellectual and deep thinker and
is widely respected through generations for his writings and theological works. The Canterbury cross is also
associated with Anselm.
20th Anniversary Banner: To help commemorate the 20th Anniversary of St. Anselm’s
Anglican Parish building, we are going to create a new banner. But we need your help! Story
Club and Teenalites are encouraged to submit a drawing of how they would like the new
banner to look. It must include a boat with a sail and a ‘Canterbury Cross’.
Drawings will be submitted to the ‘Banner Team’ for consideration. We would love as many drawings as
possible.
Adult members of the congregation are asked to participate in the creation of the new banner by offering a
piece of fabric in any of the following three colours – blue, brown or white. It could be a piece of fabric from
a significant source or a piece of fabric that you may already have at home. We want to make our banner a
true collaborative effort from the whole congregation. Please bring your fabrics and place them in the basket
provided.
COLOUR YOUR WORLD: In May, we remain in Eastertide but also celebrate three very
important Festivals – Ascension, Pentecost and Trinity Sunday. The colour for Eastertide
is ‘white’ and remains white for Ascension Day (14th May) and Trinity Sunday (31st May).
Between these two important festivals in the Church Calendar falls Pentecost (24th May).
The colour for Pentecost is ‘red’. Red symbolizes the fire and the power of the Holy Spirit
and people are encouraged to wear red to church on Pentecost Sunday. Pentecost Sunday falls 50 days after
Easter Day and is considered to be the ‘birth’ day of the early church.

The symbols we read in the Bible for the Holy Spirit include: fire, wind, breath, dove, whisper, oil,
water, cloud and the image of light.

In your sacred corner, change the colour of the tablecloth from white to red for Pentecost Sunday. Set
a red candle to burn at your meals on that day. You may like to add a red flower to your special place
as a reminder of the power and beauty of the Holy Spirit. Encourage your children to write a prayer on
a red edged card or strip of red paper. Share these with one another at the dinner table at the end of
the day.

If you have small children you may wish to make a red ribbon wind sock or wind chime that will catch
the wind. It is a wonderful way to demonstrate the presence of the Spirit in our lives – even though we
cannot see the wind we can see how the wind affects things in the world. Here is a link to show you
how to make one! http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Windsock-for-Children

If you are feeling adventurous, you may like to fly a red kite in the park on Pentecost Sunday.
We look forward to seeing you in church on Pentecost Sunday in all your glorious RED!!
