FROM THE EDITORIAL COMMITTEE ………

Thank you to all those who have submitted articles for this magazine—it is good to share our news across the circuit and to see God’s activity amongst his people. June is a very busy month across the circuit with both Alrewas and Shenstone having Open Gardens and the Village Festival; also we are delighted to be hosting The National Methodist Youth Brass Band at Lichfield. Jo shares with us in “The Letter from the Manse” some thoughts about “Bible Month” where we have a chance to look more closely at the letter of James. On Sunday 25th June at Coventry Cathedral a number from the circuit will be attending the service of Ordination for Sarah Parkin. Sarah was a member at Central before being accepted for ordination training. We wish Sarah God’s blessing on her ordination and our continued prayers for her ministry in Market Rasen, in Lincolnshire. The Editorial Committee wish to express our thanks to Richard Coleman who has been a member of the Talent Collating Team for so many years. Richard is now stepping down from this responsibility. If anyone can spare a couple of hours four times a year to help with the collation of the Talent Magazine, please speak to Roger Baker or Gill Woolf. The summer months can be a stressful time for young people sitting exams and awaiting results—as a circuit we hold those known to us in our prayers. The summer months are also traditionally a time for holidays and times of refreshment—Jesus said “Anyone who is thirsty come to me”. May the coming months bring you a chance to enjoy the sunshine and the opportunity for some refreshment. The next edition of Talent will be our Harvest Edition—the deadline for the submission of articles is the 23rd July. Please submit articles to the Circuit Office via email (churchoffice.tamlich@gmail.com). Every blessing

CHURCH WITHOUT WALLS ………………. What no bricks?

What comes into your mind when you hear the phrase “Church Without Walls”? Perhaps you are imaging and open air rally, or perhaps someone wearing a billboard in the centre of Birmingham or London shouting out “The end is near” …..

At the Spring Synod, the Birmingham District launched “Church Without Walls”, an inclusive Gospel movement that builds relationships with new people by starting new congregations, revitalising existing congregations, and raising up new leaders.

Revd Ian Howarth, Chair of District says “Church Without Walls” offers us an opportunity to reshape the culture of our churches in ways that make mission a priority and a reality, helping us to grow as communities following Jesus and reaching out to God’s world”.

A phased approach is suggested giving us different pathways to consider:

Pathway 1: invites us to define why we exist, what is distinctive about our identity and calling, and what important ministries we offer to the world.

Pathway 2: Growing Congregational Confidence. Particularly recognising the value of testimony.

Pathway 3: Getting outside of our buildings. Each Circuit and congregation is challenged to take part in “Together in Mission” Week, 20-29 April 2018. Getting outside of our buildings and into the communities in which we belong with special evangelism experiments like community art projects, prayer stations, games night, pop up café.

Pathway 4: Identifying Places For New Congregations: The goal is to start eight new congregations within our District by 2020.

Please will you pray for this vision opportunity and for us to discern our response? .... and be ready to join in and take up the opportunity!

LETTER FROM THE MANSE Dear Friends Do you like reading? Or do you like hearing a good story? For me, one of the joys of being a parent has been sharing my love of books with my children. Sharing reading time together was always an important part of our bedtime routine when they were tiny, and now both girls enjoy having their nose in a good book! Many of us have a favourite author, or can point to a particular book that has moved us deeply. I remember “Jane Eyre” as the first book that made me cry! Sometimes a book can have a very deep influence on us, and even play a part in shaping who we are or who we are becoming. As Christians, of course, the Bible is our special book: a library of 66 smaller books divided into the Old and the New Testaments. This is the holy book that has inspired countless people in their faith, and has given guidance, comfort and inspiration to millions of Christians over the years. How important is the Bible to you? Has it influenced your life in any way? Is there a Bible verse or passage of Scripture that you find particularly inspiring or comforting? I wonder how the Bible has shaped your life – and how the Bible might be shaping your life today? We hear passages from the Bible in every service of worship we attend, and many of us try to make it a daily discipline to read and reflect on what the scriptures might be teaching us, but June 2017 gives us a special opportunity to engage with the Bible. Along with Methodists up and down the country we are joining in “Bible Month” and focussing on the letter of James in our services across the Circuit, in small groups, and hopefully as individuals. The idea of Bible month is that we are encouraged to immerse ourselves in one Biblical book, helping us to engage with its message and deepening our understanding. It is hoped that this will enthuse us in our future reading of scripture, whether in church or in our personal quiet times with God. In the 1990s a report was brought out called “A Lamp to my Feet and a Light to my Path”, which looked at the importance of the Bible in the lives of Methodist people. (Those of you who attended the sessions last year about the church’s definition of marriage might remember this being talked about.) The most interesting section in the book for me was a presentation of 7 different ways of thinking about the Bible, and about its authority in our lives. There isn’t room for me to outline all 7 positions here - but they range from the belief that the Bible is free of all error, is totally “God – breathed” and must be followed to the letter, to the belief that the Bible “comprises a diverse and often contradictory collection of documents which represent the experiences of various people in various times and places”. I imagine that many of us would stand somewhere between these two views and would happily accept the Bible as a God - given foundation for our Christian living, whilst accepting the requirement for us to use our God given powers of reason to interpret what we read, in the power of the Holy Spirit and in the light of the tradition of the church and our own experience of God. Some of us may think differently. I wonder what you think? My prayer is that Bible Month will help us all to engage with scripture in a new and exciting way, and will help us to grow in our faith as we deepen our knowledge of the timeless narrative of God’s people and God’s activity in the world. Every blessing, Jo

WE PRAY FOR CHILDREN Written by Ina Jones (adapted)

We pray for children who put chocolate fingers everywhere, who like to be tickled, who stomp in puddles, who can never find their shoes. We pray for those who stare at photographers from behind barbed wire, who never “counted potatoes’, who were born in places we wouldn’t be caught dead in, who never go to the zoo; who live in an X-rated world. We pray for children who bring us sticky kisses and fistfuls of dandelions, who sleep with the dog and bury goldfish, who hug us in a hurry and forget their lunch money, who squeeze toothpaste all over the sink, Who run around churchyards and streets playing hide and seek. And we pray for children who never have a pudding, who have no comfort blanket to drag behind them, who can’t find any bread to steal, who don’t have rooms to tidy, whose monsters are real. We pray for children who throw tantrums in supermarkets, restaurants and cafes And pick at their food, who like ghost stories, who get visits from the tooth fairy, who don’t like to be kissed in public whose tears we sometimes laugh and whose smiles make us cry. We pray for the those whose nightmares come in the daytime, who will eat anything, who have never seen a doctor, who aren’t spoiled by anybody, who go to bed hungry and cry themselves to sleep, who live and move and have no being. We pray for children who want to be carried, and for those who must, for those we can never give up on and for those who don’t get a second chance. For those we love to bits, And for those who will grab the hand of anybody kind enough to offer it. We pray for all children throughout the world. We pray that you will make us worthy of them. (Poem submitted by Warren Bardsley)

GIVE IT UP FOR THE GIRLS – AND THE BOYS! On Sunday 14th May 2017 at 6.15pm, Hopwas Methodist gathered for its annual Ladies’ Service. In usual tradition, a ladies’ choir was convened for the occasion and four pieces were sung as part of the worship, which was most ably led by the invited preacher, Mrs Gill Woolf. The evening was warm and sunny and so the doors of the chapel were left open, which meant that the sounds of the birdsong infiltrated into the quieter moments of the worship and in turn our singing spread out into the surrounding village. Even with the choir all sitting ‘up front’, suitably dressed in bright colourful dresses or outfits, it was good to see the chapel was still full. The theme of the sermon was ‘being people of influence’ and reminded us of influential characters from history, including Emily Wilding Davison, the suffragette who was knocked down and killed when she threw herself under the King’s horse at the Derby for the cause of women’s rights. We were also challenged, in the context of the woman who poured perfume on Jesus’ head, to be dependent, devoted, and determined – dependent upon the love of God, devoted in our service and determined to be instruments of spreading the good news. At the close of the service, a bouquet of flowers was presented to Gill, the preacher, and to Edna Stafford, our most patient and able organist and pianist. The congregation then ‘en masse’ moved through to the schoolroom to enjoy refreshments provided and served by the men of Hopwas, who also did the washing up! It was a most uplifting and inspiring time of fellowship, enjoyed by all. Lesley Cox

THE CROSS

We all look upon the cross, A symbol of torture and death

For his disciples, who felt the loss When Jesus died on the cross.

On the third day, there it stood An empty cross, made of wood. Our dear Lord was resurrected,

Our sins forgiven, our lives corrected.

To thank you the Lord for our salvation, The cross became a decoration,

With glorious flowers from His creation.

Alleluia.

A JOURNEY THROUGH THE PRAYER LABYRINTH AT LICHFIELD METHODIST CHURCH

Holy Week 2017 It was said that to fully enjoy the sunshine of Easter Sunday one should first visit the darkness of Holy week. So it was that I ventured to visit the prayer walk set up in church. The path snaked its way through church from one end to the other, not a maze with paths leading nowhere but a labyrinth with just one entrance and one exit; with ten places along its length to stop, consider, pray and reflect. At the first stopping point we were invited to think about world leaders and those with fame or influence; to pray for them that God would be with them guiding them in their actions. In a world that sometimes seems to be out of control and hopeless, praying starts to sew seeds of hope. It was poignant, in the silence, to break bread, dip it into wine vinegar and eat it. This was a wine that offered no refreshment.

Yet more thought provoking was to pick up and hold cold cruel metal nails and contemplate their use in the Easter story. Holding a cold steel chain allowed reflection on being a captive and losing freedom. We can be held back in our journey of faith by chains that are sometimes man made, sometimes self made and sometimes spiritual. We can pray for God to break the chains and liberate us

so that we can continue on our journey. Whilst walking the pathway we had to symbolically carry a stone. At the end of the path this burden was placed at the foot of the cross.

For some people , the labyrinth may have offered peace. For others hope , comfort or perhaps just a reflection on Easter. If you weren't able to get to walk this Holy Week pathway then I urge you to seek it out when one next comes to us. I came away feeling both challenged and blessed. Perhaps you will too? Richard Gass

A FURTHER REFLECTION ON THE PRAYER LABYRINTH My visit to the Labyrinth of prayer for Holy Week started off badly in that I had left myself only 25 minutes to visit and it was a busy time as the holiday club children were being taken around in groups. Even so, I found that with the help of the prepared sheet highlighting Jesus’ journey through Holy Week and inviting me to think of my own journey, as well as the plight of others, I was able to engage fully. I came away feeling blessed and at peace. Easter week is often quite difficult to deal with. The familiar story we recount is gruelling and challenging and admittedly it can be a relief to reach the celebrations of Easter Sunday. The labyrinth enable me to reflect on our Christian story and the activities made Christ’s suffering so relevant and meaningful as I was led to think of today’s suffering—my own, other people’s and the world’s. Washing my hands as a sign of repentance, Lighting a candle and praying about struggles in my life, Laying a rock a the foot of the empty cross representing laying down my own worries and anxieties, were just three of the activities that left me feeling that I’d been in the presence of God and reminded me of what Jesus has done for me, and that he would always be with me. Alleluia! Diana Pearson

THE NATIONAL METHODIST YOUTH BRASS BAND (NMYBB) is coming to our circuit for the weekend of June 24 – 25th 2017

The band was formed 30 years ago and we are fortunate to be a part of their birthday celebrations. The band is made up of talented Methodist young people from around the country who come together for weekends about 4 times a year to play music, share fun, faith and fellowship and lead worship in a local church.

Lichfield Methodist Church invited NMYBB to come along for a weekend shortly after Sarah Hambly became a member of the band (over 2 years ago). Such is the demand that it is only now that we have been allocated a weekend.

Please come and support them and enjoy the music. They are staying in Lichfield Methodist church from Friday night until Sunday lunchtime and will be giving a concert on Saturday evening (24th June) before taking part in the services on Sunday morning (25th June).

Don’t miss this great opportunity to come along and bring your friends. The concert and service are suitable for all ages to enjoy. So see you there!

2017 – A YEAR OF BIG ANNIVERSARIES (Part Two) The USA and Britain closed its doors to Jewish immigration in 1924. As a result, Jewish migration into Palestine increased significantly during the years of the Mandate. When the (British) Peel commission of 1936-7 recommended the partition of Palestine into Jewish and Arab states the Palestinian Arabs rejected the plan – not surprisingly, in view of the fact that their leadership was being severely weakened by the brutal British suppression of the Arab revolt (1936-39) and would have involved the forcible transfer of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from their homes.. But it was a foretaste of things to come, not least the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan (from which Britain abstained) granting 56% of Mandate Palestine to the Jewish State, despite only a third of the population being Jewish! There was a rapid increase in Jewish immigrants into Palestine after the end of World War 2, many of whom were survivors of the Holocaust. Given the horrors of the Nazi extermination camps, British people tended on the whole to be sympathetic to this immigration. But it was viewed with foreboding by Palestinians as conflict over territory became inevitable. Much of the immigration was illegal under quotas imposed by the British Mandate.

Bruised by six years of war and increasingly targeted by Jewish terrorist groups demanding withdrawal, the British were keen to get out of Palestine. We abandoned the country in May 1948 when the Jewish State of Israel was declared. In so doing we also abandoned our obligations to the indigenous Arabs who were severely at risk from Zionist military forces. The forcible dispossession of 750,000 Palestinians of their homes in 1948-9 led to the 68 year old Palestinian refugee problem, and is described by them as ‘the Naqba’ or catastrophe. This was partly due to Britain’s abdication of its moral and legal responsibilities as the Mandate power.2

As Christians we recognise the State of Israel’s right to exist, and its place in the community of nations. We acknowledge the sense of security and empowerment which the establishment of that state has given to the Jewish people after centuries of anti-Semitic persecution. But equally many Christians feel, as we approach this centenary that now is the time for Britain to issue an apology to the Palestinian people for our broken promises; we effectively gave away another nation’s land, and subsequently failed to respect the human and political rights of the indigenous non-Jewish peoples.3 Furthermore Britain has compounded its errors. Successive governments have offered almost unqualified support for Israel’s actions; we have done nothing to stop the building and expansion of illegal settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem or the illegal separation barrier, which despite the UN vote for recognition of Palestine in December makes a viable Palestinian state virtually impossible to realise.

As British Christians we express our sadness and remorse to the Palestinians for the actions of successive British governments in frustrating their legitimate demands for freedom justice and dignity. But remorse itself is not enough. Our unique historic responsibility for the present situation means that we have no alternative but to ACT for change.. Moreover for Palestinian Christians whose faith is deeply rooted in the soil of the land we once called holy, that imperative is even stronger.

SO :- 100 years since Balfour; 70 years since the ‘naqba’ 50 years since the Occupation. Surely the RIGHT TIME to recognise the unfulfilled promises made in the Declaration and to take action NOW to support the Palestinian people in their long struggle for justice, freedom and equality. Look out for events during this year about ways in which we can all act for change.*

GLIMPSES INTO OUR PAST METHODISM’S FIRST STEPS IN LICHFIELD

Methodism was late to arrive in Lichfield and, when it did, its successful establishment was in no small measure due to an uncle and nephew from North West Leicestershire. Joshua Kidger was born in Worthington in 1775 and his nephew, John, in the nearby hamlet of Griffydam in 1795. Little is known about Joshua’s early life but it seems he was still living in that area until at least 1804 as his daughter, Ann, was baptised at the Griffydam chapel in October that year. He then appears in 1811 in Lichfield at Gallows Wharf there on the old Wyrley and Essington canal.

All places where services for dissenters (non-Anglicans) took place had either to be registered with the bishop or the justices sitting at Quarter Sessions. Many of the records still exist and we know that one of the signatures on an application to register a house at the wharf in 1811 was that of Joshua Kidger who was the wharfinger (wharf manager) and the house was presumably his. What had brought him to Lichfield is not known. Clearly, he was one of the leading figures in the founding of a society there which was done, we are told, with the aid of preachers from Birmingham. The society soon grew to such an extent that it was not long before there was a desire for a chapel. A suitable site was found in Lombard Street, and, on the application to register, Joshua’s signature appears again. Joshua was well enough off to be able to employ a hostler who it is said found a purse containing money. Despite extensive enquiries the money remained unclaimed and became the chapel’s first donation

The Lombard Street chapel opened in 1814. Interestingly, it seems that Joshua brought with him a feature of the Griffydam chapel which was the associated burial ground. Our chapels rarely had them but the land in front of the chapel was set aside for one albeit on a far smaller scale. Joshua was one of the chapel trustees and, among the others, were William, his brother, and James Burton also from Leicestershire but there is no evidence that either had played any active role.

Further help with the work at the newly erected chapel was needed and so in 1815 Joshua called on John who, in 1812 aged 17, had been converted at a prayer meeting at the Griifydam chapel. He was engaged at Lombard Street for 2 - 3 years before returning to Leicestershire and carrying on a grocer’s business in Belton. Joshua remained in Lichfield leaving the wharf and establishing a grocer’s and tea dealer’s shop in Bird Street. Later, by way of complete contrast, he became a house agent and coal dealer! He died in1861.

There is an interesting footnote. Not only were the Kidgers connected with Lichfield but there was also a link with Tamworth too as Joshua and John were parties to the lease of Tamworth’s second chapel in Bolebridge Street opened in 1816.

BIG SLEEP OVER AT LICHFIELD METHODIST CHURCH On the weekend of 28th-30th April, thirteen 8-18 year olds and their leaders from Lichfield Methodist Church hosted 4 young people and their leaders from Victoria Methodist Church Bristol for a Big Sleepover. The theme of the weekend was Fairtrade which involved taking a trip to Cadbury World and spending time in a variety of different activities led by the two different groups reflecting on the theme. Vic young people led us in an activity which involved deciding on the necessities several communities needed and deciding what they would spend their Fairtrade premium on. We found it hard to choose between items such as mosquito nets, a water pump, health care and education which were amongst the options and felt very lucky that we don’t need to choose in this country. We spent Saturday evening watching Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory and eating popcorn (and the chocolate from Cadbury World). On Sunday morning all the young people were involved in leading the 10.30am worship either as part of the band or in the action songs and drama sketches. We had a lovely weekend meeting new young people and are looking forward to travelling to Bristol at some point. Beth Eales and Sarah Hambly (LMC) Message from Victoria Church Bristol: We want to thank everyone at Lichfield Methodist Church for making us feel very welcome and to the young people and leaders for helping us integrate very quickly into your group. By the time we arrived at Cadbury World on Saturday morning it was impossible to tell from the outside who belonged to which group. It was clear that a lot of planning had gone into keeping everyone engaged (and safe) during the week end. The shared activities organised to raise awareness around the needs of people outside the UK and the role of Fair Trade really engaged all the young people, and we really enjoyed working together on the dramas etc. and helping lead worship on the Sunday morning. Our young people are very keen to have a return sleepover at Vic once our building reopens after our redevelopment work is complete and can’t wait to see their friends again at 3Generate in November. Helen, Shing, Hugh and Lyn (Leaders The Den, Victoria MC, Bristol) We had a lovely weekend meeting new young people and are looking forward to travelling to Bristol at some point.
