YOUR VICAR
My dear Friends,
“In my end is my beginning” are words that Mary, Queen of Scots is reputed to
have said shortly before she was executed. TS Eliot uses similar in ‘East Coker’ one
of his poems in his Four Quartets, but he also said the reverse “In my beginning is
my end”. Each time we have a new beginning, there is a joy of new hope. I often
feel that sense, when I have the privilege of baptising a baby; we may not know
how this new life will work out, but we can have a renewed hope for the world,
that this baby will grow up to play their part in making our world more as God
would want it.
2018 is past and over. For all of us there will hopefully have been many good times
and their memories will live on but there may have been times when we wish
things had been better. What will 2019 bring for each one of us? We may well
have our own hopes for ourselves but I trust we are all united in our greater vision
