SUNDAY AT ST MARY'S0800 HOLY COMMUNION
0930 SUNG EUCHARISTThe Sunday School meets in conjunction with this service.There is coffee in the church hall between the 9.30 and 11 o’clock serviceson Sunday mornings, to which all are welcome, and especially newcomersand visitors.
1100 SERVICE varies by Sunday in the month
The usual pattern is our all-age Praise@11 on the first Sunday; ChoralMattins on the second Sunday; Toddle Up, a short and very informalservice for toddlers and their families on the third Sunday; and MorningPrayer with Holy Baptism on the fourth Sunday. The pattern changes onspecial occasions: see the calendar on the back page for details of thismonth.
1730 Once a month CHORAL EVENSONG
Just like a cathedral Evensong in our own parish church. See the calendaron the back page for details.
Occasionally there are variations from this pattern; details are given in thispaper, on the Notice Board or on the Weekly Notes available on Sundays.
ON WEEKDAYS
Morning prayer is usually said at 9 am Mondays-Thursdays, in church.See the Weekly Notes or phone ahead to make sure. The Eucharist iscelebrated on Tuesdays at 10 am, at the Side Chapel.

St Mary’s Church is in London Road, Ewell, and the Parish Office is inthe Sacristy on the south side of the church.
The Office hours are normally 9.30-12.00 Mon, Tues, Wed and Fri, butplease check before visiting as appointments are usually needed.
The postal address is:St Mary’s Ewell Parish Church, London Rd, Ewell, Surrey, KT17 2AY.
Earlier this year, I preached at the funeral of a friend ofmine, Canon Wilfrid Browning, who had died aged 98.Wilfrid had led a long and distinguished career in thechurch, as a New Testament scholar and a director ofordinands. I subsequently discovered that his manyachievements had even included teaching one Patrick Mill-er during his time training at Cuddesdon college, Oxford!In researching the funeral sermon, I also discovered some-thing about Fr Wilfrid's ecumenical interests. As SecretaryEditor of Bulletin Internationale Ecumenique, Wilfridwrote a diplomatic note (in Latin, of course) to GianbattistaMontini, then Cardinal Archbishop of Milan to see whethera group of Anglican clergy could go to visit his diocese fora week; and when the Archbishop replied (but in Italian notLatin this time) this new venture, something revolutionaryin its day, opened the way to Anglican/Roman relationsthawing. That Archbishop of Milan became Pope Paul VI,who together with Archbishop Michael Ramsey commis-sioned the Anglican Roman Catholic International Com-mission, which still continues to meet as the most importantecumenical initiative between the two churches. I wonder,had Paul VI's interest in Anglicanism not been fostered bythose meetings, whether history would have taken the samecourse. Indeed the seed Wilfrid sowed continues to flourishtoday, with recent months seeing a joint commissioning ofbishops for mission by the Archbishop of Canterbury andPope Francis; the Pope taking part in a service at theChurch of England church All Saints, in Rome (wherePhilippa Hitchen, daughter of John and Jill Hitchen, ischurchwarden); and an Anglican Evensong at St Peter's inRome.
In a much smaller way, I'm attending part of this ongoingecumenical dialogue during May, giving a paper in Romeat a seminar under the auspices of the Colloquium ofAnglican and Roman Catholic Canon Lawyers. This Collo-quium, begun in 1999, represents another way in which ourtwo churches can grow in mutual fellowship and under-standing, by learning about and comparing one another'slaws and legal structures.
Ecumenism is something which, I think, should neverbecome the sole focus of Christian discipleship. Works oflove and charity to all, sharing the good news of Christ withthose who want to learn about him but who are not yet partof any Christian church, and worship itself are matterswhich we should never forget. But writing as I do soon afterMaundy Thursday, I recall the prayer of Jesus to the Fatheron that evening "I ask not only on behalf of these, but alsoon behalf of those who will believe in me through theirword, that they may all be one." It is Jesus' prayer that we"may all be one." Ecumenism therefore can't be an optionalextra just for those interested in it: every Christian shouldplay our own part in helping to make Jesus' prayer a reality.A concrete way of doing this is by taking part in the globalinitiative "Thy Kingdom Come"- Christians of every tradi-tion will be praying between 25 May and 4 June (Ascension

Day and Pentecost), with many special events organized. We begin this period withAscension Day in church, Thursday 25 May, services at 12 noon (said) and 8pm (sung bythe parish choir). Perhaps it would be a good occasion to invite Christian friends of othertraditions to come and worship at St Mary's; or to look out for what other churches aredoing during those nine days, and taking part alongside.
NEW SECURITY SYSTEMThe installation of the new security system mentioned in last month's EPN should have
begun by the time you read this- do refer back to the last issue for more details. Asdescribed last month, keyholders at St Mary's will soon be asked to exchange their old keysfor new fobs, as we transfer over to the electronic fob system for entry to the church via theparish room- keep an eye on the Weekly Notes for details.
IN CHURCH IN MAYEvery Sunday in May our Sundays begin with a quiet service of Holy Communion at
8am; at 9:30am there is our Sung Eucharist, with music led by the parish choir, followedby coffee in the church hall. The other services vary Sunday by Sunday. On 7 May at 11am,we have an all-age service called Praise@11.
Saturday 13 May is the morning of our Spring Market, 10am-12noon in the church hall.Contributions of cakes, plants, bric-a-brac, and books for the stalls gratefully received.Grand Draw tickets for the Summer Fair will be on sale and there will be a raffle. This isalways a very popular morning, but come early as the plants and cakes usually sell quickly!The Spring Market helps us raise the float for the Ewell Village Fair (15 July).
On Sunday 14 May, there is the traditional service of Choral Mattins at 11:15am- it's agood 'second service' after the Sung Eucharist, a time for reflection and prayer, and todaywe will be marking the festival of St Matthias. In the evening, All-in is our 5pm all-ageservice for everyone, incorporating lots of activities in the service, and followed at 6pm byClub Sandwich, our youth group for 7-11s.
On Tuesday 16 May, our bereavement cafe in the church hall (2:45-3:45pm) is anopportunity for anyone wanting to talk about their experiences around bereavement to doso in a relaxed cafe atmosphere.
Saturday 20 May sees the next in our series of organ recitals. Matthew Burgess will bethe recitalist, a former organ scholar at Queen's College Oxford and at WestminsterCathedral.
On Sunday 21 May, the 11am service is Toddle Up!- a short and very informal serviceespecially for toddlers. Then in the evening Choral Evensong takes place at 5:30pm: justlike a cathedral evensong, every month, in our own parish sung by our parish choir. Thismonth we are doing something special, to mark "Mary's Month of May". St Mary is ofcourse the patron saint of our parish church, St Mary's, and the month of May has long beenspecially associated with her. The music and hymns will be chosen accordingly, and wewill serve refreshments in church straight after the service.
Ascension Day is Thursday 25 May, with a said service of Holy Communion at 12 noon,and a sung Eucharist at 8pm. On Saturday 27 May, there will be a memorial service for RegSaunders in church at 2:30pm, which will include Holy Communion.
The late morning service on Sunday 28 May is 11:15am Morning Prayer and HolyBaptism, sung by St Mary's Singers- all are welcome to this, as to every service at St Mary's.Your friend and Parish PriestRussell Dewhurst

WE MISS THEMIn April, two longstanding church members died.Reg Saunders was part of our church for half a century,
being a parish reader for most of that time, preachedcountless sermons from our pulpit. He was known to manyEwell residents as a former headmaster of Ewell CastleSchool. Reg's memorial service, which will be a service ofHoly Communion, will be in church on Saturday 27 Mayat 2:30pm.
Arthur Mathews was the chair of our Music committee,organ curator, and convener of St Mary's singers, andworked hard raising money for our organ fund. His funeraltook place in church on Tuesday 11 April.
We hope to publish full obituaries of Reg and Arthur ina future EPN.
May they rest in peace and rise in glory.

Come now, little man,turn aside for a while fromyour daily employment,escape for a moment fromthe tumult of your thoughts,Put aside your weighty cares,let your burdensome distractions wait,free yourself awhile for Godand rest awhile in him.Enter the inner chamber of your soul,shut out everything except God.and that which can help you in seeking him,and when you have shut the door, seek him,Now, my whole heart, say to God,
"I seek your face,Lord, it is your face I seek."
Fear knocked at the door. Faith opened it andthere was no one there.
Guide us, teach us and strengthen us, O Lord webeseech Thee, until we become such as thouwouldst have us be: pure, gentle, truthful, cour-teous, generous, dutiful, useful and above allvaliant, in all our doings; for Thy honour andglory. Amen
Bless, O Lord, before we dine,Each dish of food, each glass of wineAnd bless our hearts that we may beAware of what we owe to thee
May the blessing of the GodOf peace and justice be with us;May the blessing of the SonWho weeps the tearsOf the world's suffering be with us;And may the blessing of the SpiritWho inspires us to reconciliationAnd hope be with us;From now into eternity.
May we be the salt in our generation,in our church,in our villageand in our family
Amen

JEANNIE'S HAIR-DOThe genie out of the bottle is now the gene out of the
test-tube. "Jeannie With the Light-Brown Hair" may soonhave whatever colour hair her parents want.
Hairy? Scary?Harum-Scarum Biology some would say. Actually it's
extremely precise. Scientists are beginning to think Godknew what He was doing. Some of the time they even seeOrder and Purpose emerging from Chaos.
They're a little less sure about human beings who sooften reduce Order to Chaos.
There is, mercifully, a general consensus that "LoveConquers All", that, if people treat one another kindly, allwill be well. (Scientists are searching for the genome.)
This is where Christianity comes in handy. WhereChrist comes to the rescue. We don't even have to ringHim up. As our Light of the World painting shows, Heknocks on the door. When we ask Him in, Order re-ar-ranges our fittings and furniture.
This is where we, not the scientists, have to decide.Decisions may not be easy. Jeannie may not wantthe colour her parents choose.
Will love conquer all?

ORGAN RECITALJONATHAN HOLMES
Director of MusicSaturday 11 March
Have you ever 'sponsored' a piece of music? If not,there is sometimes an opportunity to do so at St. Mary's.The idea of 'sponsorship' is that, on payment of a feethat goes towards upkeep of the historic 'Father' Willisorgan, you can hear your favourite tune played on it.
Jonathan's recital included some such requests,which went to prove how versatile the organ is. That theChoir Organ has recently been thoroughly cleaned wasshown to good effect in the opening work, the Toccatain D major by Marcel Languetuit. Both pedals andChoir organ have prominent parts in this toccata. Thefirst personal request was "Jesu, Joy of Man's desiring"by J.S.Bach. Although well-known as a stand-alonepiece, it actually belongs to one of his cantatas. In 19thcentury America, John Philip Sousa was known as the'March King', much as Johann Strauß was nicknamedthe 'Waltz King' in Vienna. Three marches had beenrequested. First came "The Stars and Stripes For Ever";then "The Washington Post" and lastly "Liberty Bell".Next request was "Sailing By" which is a slow waltz,not indeed by Strauß but by Ronald Binge (1963). Thatwas followed by "Variations on 'America'" written atthe age of seventeen by Charles Ives. Perhaps the tuneis better known to us as 'God save the Queen'. Whateverits name, it is a most irreverent piece in which onewonders just how far Ives' levity will take him. TheRussian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov wrote alot of music, including operas and orchestral music, buthe is possibly best known in this country for one work,"The Flight of the Bumble-bee". An excerpt from oneof Rimsky's operas, it is a dazzling showpiece for theplayer, whoever it may be - and I have heard it playedon the trumpet as well as violin and now the organ.Lastly, ending the first half, it was back to Bach for hisfine Prelude and Fugue in C major, BWV 547.
Three resounding notes on the organ summoned usback from our half-time refreshments. Not that this wasany kind of fanfare: these notes, in fact, introduce aToccata, a movement from the Second Symphony fororgan, of 1929, by the French composer Marcel Dupré.Another major work ended the second half. Despitebeing written as long ago as 1874,"Pictures from anExhibition", by the Russian composer Modest Mus-sorgsky attracted little attention at the time. It took until1922, when Maurice Ravel made his wonderful orches-tral adaptation, for the piece to become famous. It hasbeen transcribed for organ by Jean Guillou. Its finalmovement brought the evening to a resounding conclu-sion.
By popular demand, Jonathan was not allowed toleave without playing an encore. It was a quiet andreflective piece called "Echoes of Joy" by Hans-AndréStamm.
The next organ recital is on 20 May featuring Mat-thew Burgess.
