Loving God, we pray for all children
as they prepare for a new season in their lives. As they start nursery or school for the first time –
give them joy in new experiences.
As they move to new classes – give them confidence in growing friendships.
As they move to new schools –
give them strength in their growing independence. As they move on to college or university –
give them wisdom in their maturity.
And for all the teachers, assistants, helpers, carers and volunteers who teach and nurture our children and young
people, we ask for your blessing, your joy, your wisdom and your patience as they get ready for the new term!
We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Letter from Kathryn
I have always enjoyed detective fiction, from Miss Marple to
Morse and over the Summer I have been reading detective novels by Peter Robinson about DCI Banks. Some of the books have been televised. The descriptions of the
countryside and the urban landscape bring to life areas I know well. Whether it’s the beauty of Richmond and the dales or the busyness of Leeds city centre, the bleakness of
Scarborough in winter or urban landscapes of Beeston and Gipton, Peter Robinson knows how to describe God’s own county.
At the centre of a good detective story is death - a life cut
short by someone else’s actions. DCI Banks task is to explore the mystery of life and death and the relationships that surround the central character. The task is “whodunnit” but
the exploration reveals so much about the person who died and the people who were involved in that life both before and after the crime. Through the death of the victim relationships
with people and places near and far are described and analysed and the connections and links are uncovered until finally we know the truth of who dunnit!
Our faith focuses on the death of a person - the mystery is not who killed him, that is attested to in our gospels, but how he
influenced the lives of those who knew him before his death and how after his death he continues to influence so many generations of people across the globe. As we gather as
church on a Sunday morning we explore our links and connections with God, with each other and with those we don’t know. It’s a different sort of detective story and the climax is
not the discovery who dunnit but a discovery of how to live out the connections in the most loving way. We don’t always
realise the connections or understand the influence of God on our lives or of our actions on the lives of others. “No man (or woman) is an island, complete unto itself” writes the poet John
Donne. Detective stories, poetry, scripture all encourage us to reflect deeply on our relationships, with each other and with God, so that we will know the truth, the truth that ultimately
sets us free.

Thinking about Confirmation?
Both the Methodist and the Anglican Church offer confirmation for young people and adults to make a personal commitment
to following Jesus. This means taking up for oneself the promises made by Godparents at baptism. Baptism with
confirmation is also offered to any adults who, for whatever reason, were not baptised as children but now want to make a public declaration of faith in Jesus.
Bishop Nick will join George and Kathryn on Sunday 3
December for our Oakwood Confirmation service.
In preparation for confirmation, we will be offering both adult
and young people’s confirmation classes. If you are interested, please contact Kathryn or George for an informal
conversation.
Oakwood Book Group
We meet once a month, in the sanctuary at 19.30. Please join
us if you’ve read the book, would like to read the book or are interested in a discussion on some of the ideas in the book!
The Autumn programme is:
Tuesday 19 September Biblical Authority After Babel by Kevin J Vanhoozer
led by George Bailey
Tuesday 7 October How Then Shall We Live by Samuel Wells
led by Helen Reid
Tuesday 21 November Free of Charge: Giving and Forgiving
in a Culture Stripped of Grace
by Miroslav Volf led by Sonia Kasibante
There are copies of the books available at the back of church.
Other books that have been discussed are also there for
you to borrow.

YOU'RE INVITED TO OUR

Unlocking and Locking the Building on Saturdays
Our building is greatly appreciated by the local community
and booked out almost every Saturday for many different activities.
It would be a great support if people from church who live locally would volunteer to open and lock up on a regular but
not frequent basis. All that's necessary is orientating people into the building, kitchen toilets etc and then locking up
afterwards making sure the toilets are clean and the rooms are tidy, lights are turned off and doors are locked.
At the present time this falls on me to do almost every Saturday and a little help would be really appreciated.
Please give me a call if you could help, maybe just once a
month.

An Inconvenient Sequel "Truth to Power" ...
a Personal View August 2017
Recently the above film was given a British showing at the
Picturehouse Central in London with live links to cinemas around the country.
A pre-show interview was screened with Al Gore (who produced a film 10 years ago; and has subsequently invested
much time, energy and finance in addressing the world-wide problem of climate change) answering questions sent in on social media.
This film is the sequel. He has
filmed in locations all around the planet; from Greenland to the Philippines, Paris to Africa
showing the extreme effect of changes in weather patterns and the risks to life, limb and
livelihoods which are already being experienced and may increase: temperature rise, sea
level rise, rain bombs, floods, droughts and hurricanes. Also risks to habitats and subsequent
adjustments of fauna, flora and micro organisms.
The emphasis of the film is: we must make changes in our lifestyles immediately. Now is the tipping point. For the
sake of our children and grandchildren, consider your use of the planet and its resources. Are there changes you could make, and will you?
Although the film is a self congratulatory tribute to himself, his passion and achievements, if you have the opportunity to see
it - do (not suitable for children).
Our power base may not be as great as Al Gore's but we can certainly take advantage of what he has engaged in.

Just a few words
of appreciation to the whole church family for all the concern and caring shown to me during my recent illness.
I cannot find words to express my feelings for all the
enquiries, telephone calls, visits, cards, flowers and prayers offered on my behalf. I felt truly surrounded and supported by our church family and am convinced the Lord heard all
the prayers and gave the surgeon, doctors and nurses the knowledge and skill to perform a miracle - I am living proof
of that.
I really have been overwhelmed and I cannot find words to express my gratitude so all I can do is say a very simple but
heartfelt
Margaret Burgess

GREAT THINGS HAPPEN AT
Our
Every Monday during term time from
10.30 until 12.00
The Monday Cafe is a great place to meet your friends and catch up and make new
ones. Everyone is welcome, we have homemade cakes, buttered toasted tea cakes
and, by special request, we have added delicious bacon butties.
The Monday Cafe and Martin's Market, including the sale of jams and pickles, has had its most successful year since it
started in 2014.
In addition to making donations to the church of £2,229 we have made donations to Macmillan cancer care, Methodist
Homes for the Aged, HELP (Harehills English Language Project), Leprosy Mission, Action for Children, Great
Ormond Street Hospital charity and Dementia Care totalling £608.00.
This is an incredible achievement with thanks to our loyal
band of Monday customers and the help of Sarah Cohen (head baker and cook), Hannah Laycock (head tea and
coffee maker) and Haydon Cooper (head waiter), without whose help this wouldn't happen.
We will open again on 11 September with home baking, bacon butties and toasted tea cakes. We also offer space for children to play and time for everyone to catch up with
friends.
A big thank you to everyone.

Family News
Please hold in your prayers -
Joyce Kilvington as she recuperates after a fall whilst on holiday in which she suffered a head injury. We also keep Ian,
Anne and Jane in our thoughts and prayers too.
We continue to hold Gary Dearlove and relatives in mind as they come to terms with the death of David Dearlove on 9 July. David was a wonderful Christian who had been a steward

celebration of David's life was held at Oakwood Church on 19 July.
Debra Cooper and Colin Simpson would like our prayers as
they recuperate and we ask the Lord's blessing on all mentioned above.
We are so pleased to see Margaret Burgess and Molly
Stallworthy back at Church and wish them the best of health.
We also hold Anne Kirkland and family in our prayers on the
death of Anne's cousin.
Congratulations to -
Doreen Smith on the birth of her great granddaughter, Alba.
Liz Gage on the birth of her daughter, Jessica.

Thank you - Martin Shipley

Circuit Charity Market Stall in Aid of Methodist World Missions and
Methodist Mission in Britain
Jean Hopkinson at Gipton Methodist Church held her annual market stall fundraiser for Missions from 10.00 to 15.00 on Thursday 13 July. A small group manned the stall (at the
Leeds outside market).
Jean collects items throughout the year. She sorts them and sells many of the donations prior to the market event.
The total amount raised at the market was £805.00 (£405.00
on the day plus £400.00 which Jean had already sold either to folk she knows or on Ebay).
This amazing amount has been split equally between World Mission and Mission in Britain; everything was donated (mainly
“throw away” items) which folk don’t want but obviously someone else did.
If you have anything which you think Jean would be able to
sell please let her know on 0113 2933961 or at [email protected].
She's already started collecting for next year!
Thank you

Did you know one of MHA's Care Homes is in Gledhow?
Donkeys are not usually among a care home’s frequent visitors, but Gledhow is always looking for imaginative ways to
delight its residents. The home has regular visits from four-footed friends who can even make personal appearances in
residents’ rooms if required – just one of the ways in which residents enjoy richness and fulfilment in their lives.
Purpose-built in 2000, Gledhow provides nursing care for up to 50 people and goes to great lengths to fulfil all residents’
needs, both physical and spiritual. The home is well connected
to the wider community - it even has its own minibus for residents to get out and about – they have been known to use it to attend weddings or other functions.
All the private bedrooms are single and en suite, with several
communal lounges and dining rooms for company and socialising and the surrounding gardens are graced by a water feature. A full activity programme is led by residents’
suggestions and wishes, while MHA’s highly trained and caring staff members work hard to ensure the right balance of privacy and company for each individual.
Each resident can be assured of the person-centred care that lies at the heart of MHA’s values. Alternative therapies are provided such as reflexology and music therapy, which do
much to promote personal well-being, while the Chaplain provides one-to-one support to meet individual spiritual needs. In these and countless other small ways, everyone works to
ensure that all the residents at Gledhow can live life to the full in the way that they choose.
Please look out for copies of "Heart and Soul", in The New Room, MHA's magazine which is issued three times a year.

USED STAMPS RAISE
THOUSANDS!
We have been involved and supported Hearing Dogs for the Deaf for many years by saving used stamps which help to
raise money for their work.
Just cut around stamps (make sure you
leave a border), then bring them to Church, put them in the plastic wallet on the charity noticeboard or the noticeboard
in the back porch. I will collect them and then send them to Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Every stamp helps and they add up to so much.
Enjoy recycling your stamps, knowing the impact you are
making by helping to train a hearing dog which will change a deaf person’s life.
Thank you - Martin Shipley

House Groups
Early Methodist gatherings were called 'societies'.
John Wesley encouraged different kinds of small group to develop, so that both leaders and members
of the societies could receive support and challenge in their faith.
These groups, called 'classes', met regularly, and the
idea was to be accountable to each other about how each person was living the Christian life. So, people had to be very open and willing to be changed by the
experience.
In the twentieth century, it became less common for classes to meet in this way but recently many
Methodists have been trying to reclaim the tradition.
The supportive small group has been found to be one of the most powerful ways for people to feel that they
belong, and to learn, grow and expand their opportunities for Christian conversation about the things that matter.
