Wind, dancing hares and a time

of repentence and reflection

Dear Rougham, Beyton, Hessett and Rushbrooke parishioners,
March is traditionally a time of wind and dancing hares. We open with
Pancake day on Shrove Tuesday 1st March (see inside back cover).
This heralds the beginning of Lent on Ash Wednesday when believers
were traditionally signed with a cross made of the burnt ashes of palm
crosses from the previous year – a sign of repentance.

Lent is a time of reflection and remembering that Jesus spent 40
days in the wilderness with his Father before his earthly mission
began.

Many people give up something for the 40 days ‘fast’. Sundays are
not included as we always celebrate Jesus and the Good News He
brings us on His day.

Giving up something is good – new laws have meant that smoking
seems to have almost disappeared which is good for everyone’s
health. Chocolate and crisps may be on my list but the best thing to is
‘to do something’ new and positive.

On page 9 we feature the inspiring story of Bury Drop In, staffed by
volunteers who cook and supply food to the vulnerable. There are
many ways we can help and support our neighbours. As Jesus said:
‘Love your neighbour as yourself’ – the golden rule of life.

Every Blessing,
Graham Rendle

There will be a churches together Prayer Breakfast on Saturday

We need volunteers!

Step forward one pace! Over the past two years there has been major
disruption to our church services, many of them being by Zoom to our
homes. Last month we started to bring services back to all our village
churches.

But we need help! To keep our churches functioning we need help with
some of the jobs that are done during the services such as sides-people to
welcome folks in and hand out books, singing in the choir, reading and
praying and helping with refreshments after church services. There is flower
arranging, cleaning the churches and brass, churchyard maintenance etc
and there is bell-ringing at Rougham church.

If you feel able to help in any way, please contact Revd Graham Rendle
on 01359 270924 or any church member who will point you in the right
direction. Thank you in anticipation.

How Bury Drop In delivers

aDRIan and MaRy GRenvILLe explain how this
Church-driven initiative is making a real difference

Bury Drop In was set up by 14 churches in Bury St Edmunds in
response to the growing number of people sleeping on the streets.

From small beginnings in September 2015, the number of guests
has grown from week to week. Just before the first lockdown we had
been regularly feeding hot lunches, sandwiches, cakes, fruit and hot
drinks to more than 70 guests on Tuesdays and Fridays. We kept in
contact with guests and volunteers by Zoom meetings and phone calls
and were delighted to reopen in October 2021.

When lockdown was in operation, volunteers set up a scheme
called ‘text-magic’ which helped us stay in contact via phone
messages. Our guests greatly appreciated this service easing their
feelings of loneliness and isolation.

In addition to food we try to help our guests find accommodation,
employment, and and support debt management, budgeting and
benefit applications. We provide bedding, household necessities,
furniture and access to agencies which can offer specialised support.
We help guests with laundry and shower facilities, and give out
donated toiletries, small items of clothing including underwear, socks,
hats, scarves and gloves.

We have been hugely blessed and supported by gifts of food from
local supermarkets, and friends who have donated clothing, sleeping

bags, blankets and money. Bicycles have been renovated and safety
checked and given to guests to help in their search for work.

One notable success is a group of guests who
formed a mutually supportive friendship set,
characterised by lots of fun and laughter. They always
sat together and we know them as “Table One”. They
have built up confidence and independence and meet
every week and organise their own activities including
games and puzzles. They plan, shop and cook their
own meals under the guardianship of one of our volunteers. Now
almost fully independent they remain in contact with us and are
welcome to join us at Drop In whenever they wish.

Looking to the future, we pray for guidance and continued support
so that we will be able to help our guests in learning to cook basic
meals, gardening growing vegetables, art and craft activities and
theatre workshops.

Our goal is to expand our support and help for the increasing
numbers of vulnerable people in the area.

‘I don’t care who knows it: 

I absolutely love Lent!’

ReveRenD canon
“tIffeR” RoBInSon
argues that abstinence

means he enjoys
the good things in life

even more

It’s the most wonderful time of the
year! I suspect you don’t share my
excitement, but I don’t care who
knows it, I absolutely love Lent!
The penance, the abstinence, the
sackcloth and ashes.

This might surprise some people, as if you have met me you may
know how much I enjoy all of God’s rich bounty.

Yet it’s precisely because I enjoy the good things in life that I enjoy
Lent so much: a chance to reevaluate them, to see them as gifts rather
than taking them for granted, to remember how fortunate I am to have
what I need. To remember my need for God, when much of the time I
can find ways to pretend I am independent and not reliant upon him
for everything in my life.

This year, as the cost of living goes up more than it has for a very
long time, being prudent for a period of time perhaps has greater
significance.

Traditionally, the money saved on luxuries during Lent wouldn’t just
go back into the bank balance, but go toward the poorest in society. A
lot more people are going to start falling into that bracket than previous
years, and going without so that others can have enough is an
important part of Christian discipleship.

Lent can help us to focus that, and give us a sense of corporate
support as we all do so together. When I sometimes feel a bit

Continued on page 14

Continued from page 13

despondent about things, what inspires me is those I see who,
because of the limitless grace of God in their lives, give their time and
treasure to support others. People who put their money where their
heart is. Lent is also about a call to simpler living, and that’s something
I think a lot of us have got used to over the past two years. People are
generally doing less than they used to, mainly because of new habits
that have been formed, and although I think there’s a danger in that
becoming the norm, it can mean there’s space in one’s life for
reevaluating. Saying “no” to good things might leave space to say
“yes” to even better things. It might not be the best advertising slogan
ever, but self denial might actually be a good thing!

It is a good thing to do for ourselves. It is a better thing to do for
God. Jesus said: ‘If any one would come after me, let him deny himself
and take up his cross daily and follow me.’ (Luke 9.23) Whatever else
this means, it certainly means self-denial is not optional for the
Christian. Our discipleship involves death to self, that we may live for
Christ – who died for us, that we may live. If Lent is to be any use at
all, it will be primarily about the good news of God’s self-giving in Jesus
Christ, for our salvation and that of all the world.

BEYTON PARISH COUNCIL

You are invited to a

VILLAGE OPEN FORUM

Beyton Vestry

Saturday 26 March
2pm-5pm

Beyton has the opportunity to purchase The
Village Green, currently owned by the ‘Ladies

of the Manor’. However this is a complex
matter so Beyton Parish Council is hosting a
special village ‘drop-in event’ to present the
case for and against and hear views from as

many villagers as possible.
This will be followed by an Extraordinary
Meeting on Tuesday 12 April at 7.30pm,

again open to all villagers (again in the
Vestry). Both will help Councillors come to a

final decision on the issue.
For more information,

please email the Parish Clerk

Can you help Book aid?

For 10 years I have been an
active supporter of a Christian
charity called Book Aid which
collects unwanted Christian
books and Bibles and sends
them to developing countries
around the world where there is
a ‘book famine’, writes Jeremy
Bond.

Now I am hoping to enlist
more support from churches in
Bury St Edmunds and the
surrounding district.

My family and I relocated to
Suffolk, which is my home
county, in 2015. Since that time
we have used our garage for
storing donated books and Bibles but we need more storage to handle
the volume and some volunteers to sort and pack the books.

Book Aid has been running since 1987 when Bob and Aida Hiley
were inspired to send books and Bibles to those who could not afford
to buy books or needed Bibles for their church or theology books for
their pastors.

Many millions have been sent to many countries from South
America to the Philippines. The charity has survived on a small budget

Growing your own... give it a go!

And you don’t need green fingers argues yvonne HaRButt

There’s nothing more
satisfying than growing
your own produce.

Harvesting vegetables,
salads and fruit throughout
the season is a cost-
effective way of eating
fresh and tasty items
straight from the garden.

With careful planning
you can have a continuous
supply of interesting and
unusual varieties together with popular choices. You don’t need green
fingers to grow some easy crops and if space is limited you can be
creative with planters and patio areas. Walls and fences are ideal for
growing climbing plants – tomatoes, cucumbers, runner beans and
peas can all be trained on wires, they will also offer colourful flowers
which attract pollinators to the garden.

Alternatively, add bamboo canes to large pots to make a wigwam
structure which can accommodate the climbers. These can be placed
amongst perennials in the border or on redundant areas of the patio.
Consider hanging baskets for tumbling tomatoes, herbs or strawberry
plants – they make an interesting choice instead of bedding plants
during the summer. Potatoes and other rooted vegetables are suited to
tubs or raised beds alongside quick cropping salads and cut and come
again varieties.

If you want to give it a go, now is the time to choose seeds, potato
tubers, onion sets and shallots to get started with early sowing and
planting. If you prefer to wait a few weeks, plug seedlings will be
available, ready to plant out once we are free of frosts and colder
weather. Prepare to enjoy the fruits of your labour. Happy gardening!

Poet’s corner

Birds’ Nests

by John Clare (1793-1864)

How fresh the air the birds how busy now
In every walk if I but peep I find
Nests newly made or finished all and lined
With hair and thistle down and in the bough
Of little awthorn huddled up in green
The leaves still thickening as the spring gets age
The Pinks quite round and snug and closely laid
And linnets of materials loose and rough
And still hedge sparrow moping in the shade
Near the hedge bottom weaves of homely stuff
Dead grass and mosses green an hermitage
For secresy and shelter rightly made
And beautiful it is to walk beside
The lanes and hedges where their homes abide.

John Clare was born in Northamptonshire and was an agricultural
labourer, but also a very prolific nature poet. The above poem comes
from a volume titled The Poetry of Birds, edited by Simon Armitage
and Tim Dee. They note in the foreword that Clare wrote about 147
different species of birds. Quite an accomplishment. Sadly, he ended
his days in a lunatic asylum. The odd spellings “awthorn” and
“secresy” are thought to be the original spellings used by the poet.

Hessett rainfall records

Having just had an extremely dry January (rainfall rather alcohol!) I
thought it would be interesting to look at the rainfall figures I have

been keeping for the last 2 ½ years, writes Tim Elliot

All measurements in inches

In September 2019 1.5” rain fell in the final three days of the month.
The autumn (2021) was dryer than the previous two years and
January was exceptionally dry resulting in the rolling 12-month figure
falling below 20” for the first time since I have been monitoring it. I
have highlighted the months where the rolling total has exceeded 24”
(2” per month). Apologies for using imperial measurements but I
struggle to think what mms mean for rainfall.
the regional average figures make an interesting comparison:
• On average, October is the wettest month

with 2.28 inch (58.0 mm) of precipitation.
• On average, February is the driest month

with 1.38 inch (35.0 mm) of precipitation.
• The average amount of annual precipitation is:

22.83 inch (580.0 mm).

Shrove tuesday – Mardi gras

cShrove tuesday - Mardi gras

The day before Ash Wednesday is known to most of us as Pancake
day! It was traditionally the day the last of the best food – eggs, butter
and sugar were used up before the Lent Fast.

There maybe pancakes at coffee morning Thursday 3rd March
In French-speaking countries Mardi gras –- Fat Tuesday – has
become a by-word for celebration, especially in New Orleans.
‘Shrove’ has an interesting ‘history’. It is a very old word. In the 8th
century, a York priest wrote a list of sins – a scrift boc or shrift book –
derived from the Latin scribere (to write) which developed into the
‘confession’ Shrove Tuesday. Around 1500AD celebrating before
confession and imposition of ash on the Wednesday – the first day of
Lent. Also from the same Latin word ‘Strrift – short shrift derived from
the short time a condemned man had to confess his sins before
execution.

Alan’s funeral was held at St Mary’s Church,
Rougham on 8th February 2022. Tribute was paid
by his daughter Elizabeth and son Christopher
read a poem. Bible readings came from
grandchildren Sarah, Katie, Daniel and Becca.
There was a full congregation of family and friends.
Alan was interred with his wife Barbara who
preceded him in 2011.

Alan and Barbara came to Quaker Lane, Beyton, in 2000 and soon
became established in the church and village. Alan was commissioned
as a church Elder by the Bishop in June 2012. Bells were rung as Alan
had trained with St Mary’s band of ringers. Ros Pitcher played the organ
and the service was conducted by the Rev’d Graham Rendle.
