2 From the Rector Can you imagine what it must feel like to be imprisoned for something you didn t do? Sadly, it is an all too common occurrence, but fortunately there are a growing band of lawyers and scientists who, using modern forensic and similar practices, are dedicated to proving the innocence of those who have been wrongly convicted. Prison is a bad enough life for the guilty; it must be even harder for the innocent. Today s gospel begins with the words, After John was arrested. We know John was a holy and innocent man. He was arrested for speaking the truth. Jesus, too, would eventually be arrested for speaking the truth. Both did more than speak the truth; they lived the truth of the Good News of Salvation. Can the same always be said of each of us? We human beings generally do not like to be faced with the truth of our own inadequacies and the consequent need to constantly grow and improve ourselves. We hear in this gospel a call to follow Jesus. Following Jesus requires change, whether that be the radical one of leaving all to follow Jesus, or the more modest one of turning from the little every day behaviours that cause us to focus on ourselves and our own needs rather than on Jesus and the needs of others. To be faithful followers of Jesus we must change and be more Christ- like. This might be shown in the way we turn to listen to someone rather than letting our minds wander; or by rooting out whatever attitudes and behaviours most annoy those with whom we live; or thinking only positive thoughts, especially about others. It s these little changes that probably actually cost us the most! It s also these little changes that help us grow into faithful disciples and that make evident that the time of fulfilment is now. Have a great week. Fr. Nick 2

5 News Monthly service roster Can you help with readings, leading intercessions, welcoming, hospitality or serving? If you would like to find out what is involved, please speak to Fr. Nick. Training and support will be offered to new volunteers. Music Foundation Work to establish a music foundation is now underway with the aim of generating c. $35,000 p.a. to fund the training of young musicians and provide them with opportunities to perform publicly. The intention is that once it has been established, donations to the fund will be tax deductible. The good news is that $8,000 has already been pledged and if you would be interested in pledging money (over and above your regular giving to the Church), it would be helpful if you could let Fr. Nick know so that we can ascertain whether this is going to be achievable. Thank you. Come and See.Conversation starters Further to last week s sermon the top three things that you identified as things you would like to invite others to come and see were: 1. Our friendly and supportive congregation 2. Our worship 3. Our music Service at Lisle Lodge Mount Claremont There will be a service of Holy Communion in the Common Room as Lisle Lodge on Thursday 22 nd February at 10:30 a.m. If there is sufficient demand, we hope that this will become a regular event. All welcome! 5
6 Parish Finances At their meeting of 14 December 2017 Diocesan Council discussed our financial situation. Following the meeting, the Diocesan Secretary wrote to say the following: Diocesan Council appreciates the extraordinary financial difficulties that the parish has been facing, but equally the considerable effort and perseverance of the parish to work through those challenges to ensure that the Gospel is proclaimed in this part of Perth and the Church built up so that people may come to know and love God. Accordingly, Diocesan Council resolved: - To write off the unpaid assessment owed by the parish of Swanbourne- Mt Claremont for the 2014/2015, 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 totalling $50, To approve in principle ministry grant of the parish of Swanbourne- Mt Claremont as part of the 2018/2019 budget process. Effectively, Diocesan Council has written off all our debts, with the exception of a small insurance premium, up to the end of the last financial year which is very good news. We expect to finish this financial year with a loss and we will therefore be in debt to the Diocese again at the end of the April, but it will be a much smaller amount than would otherwise have been the case. None of this would have been possible without the significant efforts of many in this congregation, and I thank God for your generosity and creativity. With your continuing help and goodwill, we will continue to seek new ways to increase engagement with our community and to find ways of raising the level of our income. Working together, I am convinced that we can make this parish financially viable again. We do not expect to find out details of the ministry grant until April next year, but will let you know details when we do. Thank you for all your efforts in the service of the Gospel here in Swanbourne and Mt. Claremont. Fr. Nick 6

8 Readings A Reading from the Book of the Jonah The word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, saying, Get up, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you. So Jonah set out and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly large city, a three days walk across. Jonah began to go into the city, going a day s walk. And he cried out, Forty days more, and Nineveh shall be overthrown! And the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast, and everyone, great and small, put on sackcloth. When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, removed his robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. Then he had a proclamation made in Nineveh: By the decree of the king and his nobles: No human being or animal, no herd or flock, shall taste anything. They shall not feed, nor shall they drink water. Human beings and animals shall be covered with sackcloth, and they shall cry mightily to God. All shall turn from their evil ways and from the violence that is in their hands. Who knows? God may relent and change his mind; he may turn from his fierce anger, so that we do not perish. When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil ways, God changed his mind about the calamity that he had said he would bring upon them; and he did not do it. Hear the Word of the Lord: Thanks be to God. Jonah 3:1-10 8
9 Psalm 62 Wait on God alone in stillness, O my soul; for in him is my hope. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold, so that I shall not be shaken. In God is my strength and my glory; God is my strong rock; in him is my refuge. Put your trust in him always, my people; pour out your hearts before him, for God is our refuge. The peoples are but a breath, the whole human race a deceit; on the scales they are altogether lighter than air. Put no trust in oppression; in robbery take no empty pride; though wealth increase, set not your heart upon it. God spoke once, and twice have I heard the same, that power belongs to God. Steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord, for you repay everyone according to their deeds. Psalm 62:5-12 9
10 A Reading from St. Paul s First Letter to the Corinthians I mean, brothers and sisters, the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none, and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions, and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away. Hear the Word of the Lord: Thanks be to God. 1 Corinthians 7:29-31 The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark Now after John was arrested, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news. As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, Follow me and I will make you fish for people. And immediately they left their nets and followed him. As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him. Mark 1:14-20 The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ. 10
