APRIL 2016

Happy Birthday, Your Majesty

Over the next few months our nation is going to see activities celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s 90th birthday as she

achieves this milestone, with beacons lit in April around the date of her actual birthday, and community events

planned. Her Majesty has normally celebrated her official birthday on a date in June with the Trooping of the Col-

our and family gatherings, and over the weekend of 10th – 12th June the Church of England is encouraging us to

organise events to mark this event, or at other dates if this is more convenient. Here in the Hexagon Benefice we

shall hold some themed services, maybe ring some church bells, and you will see elsewhere in this newsletter that

Husbands Bosworth are planning a Wedding Festival in April also intended to mark this event. Our plans are a

work in progress, so further details in due course.

I have never been much of a flag waver for royalist or any other cause, but over the years I have come to respect and

admire our Queen for the role she plays in our nation and the way she serves her people. As a tribute to Her Majesty

the Bible Society, along with HOPE and the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity have published a book

about her entitled ‘The Servant Queen and the King she serves’ (available from the Bible Society). This book re-

cords some of the events of her life, points out that even as she approaches the age of 90 she still works a 40 hour

week keeping up to date with matters of state even during her holiday periods; tells us that while she employs around

1200 people she still feeds her own dogs; but a recurrent theme of this book is the way she has quietly lived out and

expressed her faith in God. It quotes from a number of her Christmas broadcasts where she often refers to biblical

themes, speaks of her trust in God, the strength she takes from her faith, and the way she values other people’s

prayers. Right at the start of her reign she spoke of devoting herself to the nation and what she called ‘our great im-

perial family to which we all belong’ but only being able to have strength to keep her resolve to do this with the help

and support of us the people and with the help of God. She has taken seriously that part of the Coronation Service

which was not on public view, when the Archbishop anointed her with holy oil to show she was being set apart to

serve and love her people in all her actions, with all her heart and with all her mind.

In many ways she leads by example. Her faith and trust in Christ, and regular church attendance, has not distanced

her from people of other faiths, but enabled her to embrace them, according them respect and dignity as she does

those who share her own faith, listening to their stories and taking an interest in them. She believes the established

church has a duty to protect the free practice of all faiths in this country. She is also someone who holds strong

family values, even when faced with difficult times and in the face of media attention. She is a woman working in a

male dominated society – so many of our nation’s politicians and the world leaders are men and she has held her

own among them all – during her reign the opportunities for women to be equal with men has grown enormously, it

would be impossible to measure the extent to which she has influenced this. And internationally she is a much loved

figure, known and respected throughout the world.

So thank you, Ma’am, for your faithful love and service to us all over so many years, I hope you have a very happy

birthday, and enjoy the blessings of good health and prosperity for many years to come. Long may you reign.

Liz

HEXAGON MEN’S GROUP SEE PAGE 7

Confirmation Preparation In April, Confirmation preparation group will begin. If anyone is interested in confirming the promises made on their

behalf when they were baptised as children, or in exploring the Christian faith for themselves for the first time, then do

come along. Confirmation can take place from the age of 12 upwards (the oldest person I have seen confirmed was 93 –

you are never too old!) Ring Liz to register your interest in the group on 01858 880351.

Our local schools

Please hold both of our schools at Arnesby and Husbands Bosworth in your thoughts and prayers as the staff and gover-

nors work out how to proceed following the government’s statement that all schools will have to become academies and

part of a multi academy trust by 2020. There will be important decisions to be made which will affect the futures of these

schools, and whatever decisions are made it will mean an increased workload for staff and governors.

Lent Groups

Thanks to all those who participated in our lent meetings this year, special thanks to those who invited us to come and join

with you at other churches and for the welcome you showed. It has been good to share in fellowship at this important time

in the church year. Every blessing to you and your congregations during this Easter Season. The peace of the Lord be

always with you.

Thank you

At this time of the year when we hold our annual church meetings in each parish it is appropriate to thank once again all

who work so hard to keep our churches going, those who participate in the day to day running of things, those who help

out on a rota basis with things like flower arranging and grass cutting, those who serve on our PCCs, readers, sidemen's

and cleaners rotas, those who assist at communion and those who lead services, the organists and singers, those who ring

the bells, those who contribute to this magazine, those who pray and who worship and who carry out acts of kindness in

our communities, those who go into our schools or help with Messy Church, those who fund raise and those who support

these efforts, those who provide refreshments and act as welcome at church. It is what you all do that makes church what

it is, so thank you for being the church. The danger of lists is that you miss someone out – so please don’t be offended if I

haven’t said what you do - accept my grateful thanks and know that God sees what you do. Let’s keep up

the good work and may God bless you this Easter Season. Liz

"The Hexagon Men's Group is hoping to make new start in April after illness and

winter disrupted its initial beginnings. The first meeting is on Wednesday 13th April at

7.30pm at 11 Elmcroft Road, North Kilworth.

This is an open invitation for all men in the parishes of the Hexagon to come along It is a group with an open agenda and an opportunity for Christian men to share and to support one another.

At this first meeting we will try to decide the content of future meetings, so come along with some ideas as

to what you think the Group should be about.

Should the time together include discussion about our faith?

Should we invite speakers on certain Christian topics?

Should we have worship together?

Should we have some Bible Study?

Should we have social time together - a summer barbecue, for example?

What are your thoughts?

Come along and tell us."

CUSTOMS AND EXCISE HARWICH ESSEX

Five men in an Audi Quattro arrived at the ferry checkpoint in Harwich, Essex.

Tracey, in her brand new uniform, stops them and tells them:

"I can't let you on the ferry. It is illegal to have 5 people in a Quattro. Quattro means four..One of

you will have to get out and stay behind."

"Quattro is just the name of the car," the driver replies disbelievingly.

"Look at the papers: this car is designed to carry five persons."

"You cannot pull that one on me. This is Tracey you're talking to here," she replies with a smile.

"Quattro means four. You have five people in your car and you are therefore breaking the law.

So I can't let you onto the ferry. It's more than my job's worth to let you all on."

The driver is now very cross and replies angrily,

"I've had enough of you. Call your supervisor over. I want to speak to someone with more intelli-

gence!"

"Sorry," responds Tracey, "but Sharon is busy with those two blokes in the Fiat Uno."

WE PRAY FOR THOSE KNOWN TO US WHO FIND LIFE A STRUGGLE. WE ASK THAT THEY MAY FEEL THE PEACE AND UNCONDITIONAL LOVE THAT ONLY YOU CAN BRING. WE PRAY FOR THOSE WHO MOCK YOU LORD IN SPITE OF YOUR SACRIFICE FOR THEIR SINS.
