In the early 1970s a New Zealand Prime Minister
called Norman Kirk spoke about what he believed
people wanted – ‘someone to love, somewhere to
live, somewhere to work and something to hope
for.’ The BBC has picked up on that quote and have
produced four Panorama programmes linked to
each of the four themes. The final programme was
about something to hope for.
The dramatic events of Good Friday were so
devastating for the disciples and all who had
become followers of Jesus, they thought it was all
over, that there was nothing to hope for.
Although Jesus had talked to his disciples about his
crucifixion and death they hadn’t really understood
or grasped what he had said.
Jesus had received an amazing welcome when
he rode a donkey into Jerusalem on the first Palm
Sunday. People were excited, there was a sense of
anticipation and expectation, a sense of hope; but
by the following Friday (Good Friday) Jerusalem
became a place of betrayal, condemnation, torture
and death. The disciples’ hopes seemed to have
been dashed.
Jesus was arrested in the garden where he was
praying, he was brought before the Jewish ruling
council who decided he deserved to die; it was
Friday, but Sunday was coming.
He was brought to Pilate who condemned him to
death; it was Friday, but Sunday was coming.
He was mocked and beaten; it was Friday, but
Sunday was coming.
seapatrick parish magazine
He was taken to Calvary, he was nailed to a cross,
he suffered and died; it was Friday, but Sunday
was coming.
His body was taken down from the cross and
placed in the tomb; it was Friday, but Sunday was
coming.
‘Hope seemed to have faded; it was Friday, but
Sunday came. The stone had been rolled away
from the entrance to the tomb; the tomb was
empty. The angel told the disciples, who went to
the tomb, that God had raised Jesus from the dead.
Suddenly, there was fresh hope; hope not only for
the disciples, but hope for us and for others.’
The message of Easter is a message of hope. He
is not here! He is risen! Everything had changed.
He who knew no sin became sin for us, he paid
the penalty for our sin; forgiveness and a restored
relationship with God is now possible for all who
put their trust in Jesus as their Saviour.
The message of Easter is a message of hope; those
who are followers of Jesus are assured that he will
never leave us or forsake us.
The message of Easter is a message of hope, hope
for this life and hope for eternity.
Discover that hope, live with an awareness of that
hope.
Roderic

Church Fete – Saturday 20th June 2015
Citizen and Rotary Watches
Quality Jewellery - Diamond Rings
Personal Service on all Repairs
Plans for our 25th Annual Fete continue to go well. Once again I am very pleased to be able to
confirm that Robert Gordon and Donald Moore have agreed to sponsor the Church Fete and
the School Competition. Both Robert and Donald have been very generous in their support
and we are very grateful to them both.
The Fete committee have been working tirelessly to make this year’s event as successful as
previous years and we need your support to help us.
Alison Adams will be looking after personnel issues this year. On the day of the Fete upwards
of 250 parishioners are needed to help staff the various stalls. She will be writing out shortly
to our key stall organisers who will in turn enlist the help of various individuals to help staff
their stall. If you are asked and are free, please say yes. We would like the completed forms to
be returned to Alison or the Parish Office as soon as possible. If you are free on the day and
would like to help, but are not already listed as a fete helper, please leave your name at the
Parish Office. If you are new to the Parish this is a great way to meet new friends and take part
in a very hectic, but very rewarding day.
I mentioned in my last article about needing sugar for making chutneys, jam etc. We have
had a good response, but a few more bags would be grealy appreciated. I also mentioned
that I would like to hear from anyone who could help with bringing on bedding plants. If you
could help out in this way, please leave your name with Esther in the Parish Office and I will
contact you.
It will soon be time to identify those items in your roof space, garage and homes which you
no longer need. Please set them aside. I will outline in the coming weeks when we can collect
them or when they can be left in the parish hall.
That’s all for now but please try and keep the 20th June free.

Annual Easter Vestry
Our Annual Easter Vestry will be held in the Parish Hall at Holy Trinity on Tuesday 21st April
at 8pm. All registered Vestry Members are encouraged to attend.
Men’s Society - For all men aged 18 and over
At a recent meeting of the Men’s Society we had a talk given by Timothy Morton (son
of one of our churchwardens, Peter Morton) and his colleagues from Love 146. Love
146 is an International Charity which raises awareness of Human Trafficking and Slavery
and supplies safe houses for victims in high risk countries. The talk covered all aspects
of this worldwide criminal industry, from prostitution to slavery. It included some
harrowing examples, three of which related to Northern Ireland, one a local girl. It
came as a surprise just how close to home this is, with 45 trafficking victims being
released, mostly from slavery, in Northern Ireland last year alone.
Next meeting of the Men’s Society – we will be attending the Holy Week Service in Holy
Trinity on Monday 30th March at 7.30pm. There is no meeting in April.
Magical Mystery Tour - Saturday, 23rd May. Full details and times to follow.
Our Men’s Society meets at 8pm on the third Monday of each month in the Coffee
Lounge at the Parish Hall. We have guest speakers, coffee/tea and chat and we go on
outings a couple of times a year. All men over 18 years old are welcome. Please come
along and join us or ring the Parish Office if you want more information.

Fund Raising Evening for International Camp
Friday 27th April 8pm – 10.30pm in the Parish Hall
Chloe Weir from our Senior Guides has been selected to attend an International Guide
and Scout Camp in Mexico this Summer. As part of the fundraising towards the camp
Chloe will be hosting a social for young people (11-18 years old) in the Parish Hall at

and the entertainment will be provided by Eternity Socials - there will also be a tuck
shop! You don’t have to be a member of our Guide or Scout units to come along.
All 11-18 year olds are welcome. Inspire - Our Youth Fellowship
Sunday nights 7pm-9pm
for all those of Secondary School age
As Spring beckons we in Inspire have had a busy few months,
some of our members are considering Confirmation this year, our Bible Study group
continues to grow in strength and we have begun a new series looking at the people Jesus
met and how these were life-changing experiences, where their lives were never the same
again! We discovered how Simeon and Anna were overjoyed to meet the newly born Saviour,
how a Jewish religious leader named Nicodemus came to meet Jesus late one night and how
Jesus met a Samaritan woman at a well in Sychar and how her life changed dramatically!
We’d love to have more young people join us on a Sunday night, just ask any of the ones who
go to Inspire and they’ll tell you what you’re missing out on! We’ve a great mix of food, fun
and faith! So if you haven’t been before or haven’t been in a while, you’re always welcome at
Inspire!

Friday nights for all those of Primary School age from 6:30pm-7:30pm
Ready Steady Go has had a great year so far with loads of new games, cool crafts, super stories
and lots, lots more! This term some of the leaders have shared their favourite Bible stories and
what they mean to them each week. Now it’s the children’s turn to share their favourite Bible
story with the group and then helping them to share the Bible with their friends and family
too!
Ready Steady Go is open to all those of Primary School age, we’d love to have them along!
We’re off on 3rd and 10th April for the Easter holidays, starting back on Friday 17th April

The crowd that cheered Him once with palms
Began to shout for Him to die, They chose Barabbas in his stead
And with one voice cried ‘Crucify!’
Between two thieves on Calvary’s hill
They put to death the Prince of Life.
One cried for help, the other cursed - The first was promised Paradise.
This promise now is for us all:
Christ gave His life to set us free.
The Cross divides, it always will The question is: what side are we?

Out West
A devout cowboy lost his Bible while he was mending fences out on the range. Three weeks
later a cow walked up carrying the Bible in its mouth. The cowboy couldn’t believe his eyes.
He took the book out of the cow’s mouth, raised his eyes heavenward, and exclaimed, “It’s a
miracle!”
“Not really,” said the cow. “Your name was written inside the cover.”
