1 CROSSGATES METHODIST CHURCH NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2014 Minister : Reverend Susan Greenhart Dear Friends, First of all Lee and I thank you for the warm welcome we received on our arrival at Cross Gates, for the many good wishes, flowers and especially prayers. Your continued prayers would be most appreciated as I get to know you all, and find my feet here. What I ve learnt already is that there are so many people with wonderful gifts which they are using to great effect within the life of the church and in the wider community. And that is a great blessing. Right now, a month in, I m trying to do a lot of listening, looking and praying. Here are some of the things I ve been asking people as I seek to understand what God wants of me in this time and place: What are the things you love about being part of Cross Gates MC? What does being a Christian mean to you? How do you worship God between Sundays? Where/how do you find it easiest to be in God s presence? What are you struggling with currently? Are you able to share those struggles with others? Are you fed by your experience of worship at church? How are you involved in the ministry of the church? Where do you see God s presence at work around Cross Gates Do you feel that the church has a mission to the people of Cross Gates and the wider community? Is that mission being fulfilled? How is God calling you into deeper connection with him? Are you considering membership? Thinking of Our Calling as Methodists, how committed are you to worship; learning and caring; service; and evangelism? No, this isn t the Spanish Inquisition! But sometimes it is helpful to do a spiritual inventory. We see how far we ve come; we see whether we re still growing. And that s important. Recently the General Secretary of the Methodist Church reported that the membership of the Methodist Church has fallen by one third over the last ten years. And we are called this year to focus on evangelism - for some the most challenging aspect of our calling. The point of focussing on evangelism is not to keep a church going that has already done its best work. It is to recognise that our role as Christians is to do what Jesus called us to do to share the love of God that has blessed our own lives. And we have to do it in a way that is relevant to people who have never experienced what it means to know Jesus and to be part of a Christian fellowship.
2 Recently at Representative Synod we heard from a Pioneer Minister working in the centre of Leeds. His remit was to spend time on the streets of Leeds asking people questions over a cup of coffee, in order to build a new church in whatever form that might take. In order to do that, he had to get to know my Galilee. Some years ago, Methodist Minister, Barbara Glasson did a similar thing when she created the Bread Church in Liverpool. She recognised how many people were wandering the streets out of work and needing a warm place to be. She hired a room and made bread together, and as they worked and ate together, they talked about the struggles in their lives and found Jesus in their midst (Matt25: 35). Jesus ministered both to his disciples and to the people around Galilee. And we are called to do the same. God will use each one of us at whatever age and stage we are in our lives. We only have to be willing to listen and to answer when God calls. We have to know our Galilee so we can see where God wants us to join in the work he is already doing. Pray. God will answer. Not always immediately; not always the answer we re hoping for; often stirring us up, and changing things more than we re comfortable with, but he will answer! Blessings.

4 Sabeel UK Sabeel is an ecumenical grassroots liberation theology movement among Palestinian Christians. Inspired by the life and teaching of Jesus Christ, liberation theology seeks to deepen the faith of Palestinian Christians, provide unity among them and lead them to act for justice and peace, non-violence liberation and reconciliation, in love. Sabeel UK works to support Sabeel in Palestine by raising awareness of the huge problems that Palestinians face every day, since the NAKBA (disaster) 66 years ago (May 1948), with prayer, (the weekly Wave of Prayer can be found at with donations and with personal visits Sabeel organises regular Witness visits in Spring and Autumn and inspiring International Conferences, every 3 years. In Leeds we have two meetings planned:- 1) Wednesday October 29 th at Holy Trinity Church, Boar Lane at 6pm (refreshments) for 6.30pm. The meetings end at 8pm. SUBJECT Bound, blindfolded and convicted. Children held in military detention, including the short film Alone. 2) Wednesday December 10 th at Holy Trunity Church, Boar Lane at 6pm for 6.30pm. SUBJECT How far is it to Bethlehem? Further information from Kath Harwood ( ) EATING IN THE FIFTIES Pasta was not eaten in the United Kingdom Curry was a surname. A takeaway was a mathematical problem. A pizza was something to do with a leaning tower. All potato chips were plain; the only choice we had was whether to put the salt on or not. Rice was only eaten as a milk pudding. A Big Mac was what we wore when it was raining. Brown bread was something only poor people ate. Oil was for lubricating, fat was for cooking. Tea was made in a teapot using tea leaves and never green. Sugar enjoyed a good press in those days and was regarded as being white gold. Cubed sugar was regarded as posh. Fish didn't have fingers in those days. Eating raw fish was called poverty, not sushi. None of us had ever heard of yogurt. Healthy food consisted of anything edible. People who didn't peel potatoes were regarded as lazy. Cooking outside was called camping. Seaweed was not a recognised food. "Kebab" was not even a word, never mind a food. Prunes were medicinal. Surprisingly, muesli was readily available, it was called cattle feed. Water came out of the tap. If someone had suggested bottling it and charging more than petrol for it they would have become a laughing stock!! *The one thing that we never ever had on our table in the fifties... Elbows!*

Anita, age 9 The Hub Monday 6 th October 11am 1pm I am setting up a monthly Cancer support drop-in which will hopefully enable cancer patients in the surrounding area to have somewhere to meet and gain peer support and find a friendly listening ear. The sessions are due to start on Monday 6 October in the Wesley Room and will then run on the first Monday of every month. The sessions will run from 11a.m to 1pm and we hope to serve tea, coffee, biscuits etc and sandwiches/soup for those who call in around lunch time. I am gathering a group of people together to serve refreshments, listen to those who attend etc Whilst it is not specifically a faith run group and will be there for people of all faith and none, I felt it important that the meetings be held on church premises and hope it will be in some way a form of outreach to those in need of support. I would be grateful for your prayer support for this new venture and for you to spread the word to anyone you know who might benefit from attending this group. Hazel Featherstone
