TOYS FOR UKRAINE

The collection of toys for Welcome House has been a great success.

THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed, particularly our friends in Scarborough who have filled my car to overflowing on more than one occasion! One of our volunteers and myself spent all of Saturday morning, sorting and bagging teddies, books, and toys so they are ready to be distributed.

We see many Ukranian friends regularly in the Minster and throughout August a Ukranian artist will be displaying her work down the north side of the church for all to see.

The people we see are happy to have been hosted by someone local and many now have flats or houses of their own. Frequently they tell me of others that would love to have a host family so if you are in the position to host a family for three or six months do let me know and I will put you in touch with the appropriate person.

We have so much, they have so little, and unfortunately, the fighting continues.

WE PRAY…….

Heavenly Father, hear our prayers for our brothers and sisters in Ukraine. Lord, we ask for peace for those who need peace, reconciliation for those who need reconciliation, and comfort for all who don't know what tomorrow will bring. Lord may your Kingdom come, and Your will be done.

BE PREPARED!

JON MAJOR – FREEDOM OF THE CITY

I think the young man might be thinking that the hat suits him more than his grandfather

As Chaplain of the 11MCM made up of the Northella, Junella, Cordella, Farnella and Pict, I felt very privileged to be present as the crews of these and other vessels, that were part of the Falklands conflict, received Freedom of the City of Kingston upon Hull.  It was particularly special as our Verger, Jon Major, was one of those honored. Rev. Irene

This little boy’s grandad was one of those receiving this honour, unfortunately, I did not get his name, however, the young boy was so proud to wear his grandad’s cap!

WELCOME CAFÉ (from strangers to friends) & LISTENING SPACE

Welcome Café is held every Thursday morning 10:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Please do quickly visit and support whenever you can.  We hope to grow this facility and invite many different groups along. There will be newspapers, games, table talk and much more with coffee and cake supplied. It is extremely important that our church family pop along on occasion, as we need people to welcome and chat to those that may be visiting for the first time.

From 12:30 soup will be served and drinks throughout the afternoon until 3 p.m.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

It is great to have ReNew and Hull City Council present during our Welcome Café held every Thursday in the Minster. These groups are there to help anyone with concerns or queries.

I must emphasise that this is available in the same way the Welcome Cafe and Listening Space are: to absolutely everyone.  That means you, your friends, family members, and even those who walk into the church for the very first time.

If you have any questions about either of these two organisations, or how you could be part of the Welcome Cafe and Listening Space team, please don’t hesitate to ask either Rev Irene or Tim.

RACE FOR LIFE.

Thank you to everyone who has sponsored us, we are so chuffed with the result.

LUNCHTIME TALKS AT THE MINSTER

TEDDY BEARS PICNIC

On 30th August 2023 we are holding our annual Teddy Bears Picnic and we are needing Childrens' books, toys (good condition and complete) and teddies for the tombola, again must be in good clean condition.

You can drop them off and give to Rev. Irene or Shirley  Ask your friends and neighbours.

SATURDAY CONCERTS

Sorry for the misinformation last week – the next concert is on August 12th.

PLEASE NOTE: there are many road closures in and around at the present time.  In particular, the A63 is closed from Friday evening until Monday morning between the Hull Royal turn-off and the Minster. Please allow extra time for your journeys.

INDIA

You may recall that over the past few weeks, we have asked for prayer for those Christians living in Manipur.  You may have seen in the news or online this week that there have been terrible things done to the women – making them parade naked.  The Prime Minister said it had ‘shamed’ the country.  We need to keep on praying for those living there and those working with the Christians.  Those living in foothill villages in close proximity to warring groups are the most vulnerable in Manipur’s conflict.

PRAYER POINTS FOR THE FOURTH WEEK OF JULY

• For those we know who are sick or bereaved or awaiting hospital procedures, for healing and comfort.

• We pray for all those who come along to our summer holiday activities. That these occasions will be refreshing and encouraging for all who come along.

• For all those living as Christians in Manipur who are suffering. Particularly for Kamsat and his ministry there.

• For all involved in schoolwork. For a restful holiday throughout August and for the safety of all pupils and their families

Thank you to all the volunteers that attended, supported, and catered at Margaret Nicholson’s funeral.  A volunteer final farewell for Margaret on her final journey!

Margaret’s family would like to thank everyone at the Minster who helped at or attended her funeral. We are sure she would have been very pleased and grateful for the number of people who did so. The Minster really was her second home, and it was lovely for us to meet so many people there who had been her friends, often for many years, and thought highly of her.
The collection for Amnesty raised £270 which also would have pleased Margaret as it was one of the charities she most keenly supported so thanks again to everyone who contributed.

GREAT FUN AT JUNIOR CHURCH

The lesson this week was based on John 6 – the feeding of the five thousand.  Having read and talked through the lesson, each person (young and old!), was given a piece of paper.  We used to make these when we were at school many(!) years ago and called them fortune tellers.  However, today they were aiming to make sure everyone understood the importance of this miracle performed by Jesus.

INDIA

Following on from the article in the last two editions of Lifeline, we would ask that you continue to pray for Pastor Kamsat and his family.  The suffering the people of that region are enduring is beyond anything we can imagine, so we need to support them with our prayers.  Let us commit to praying for them daily – it is the least we can do and the most we can do.

RACE FOR LIFE

Becca and I are taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives.  One in two people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor us if you can. We joined in a few times some years ago (whilst my hair was still brown!), and now we want to try to get a little money together again for close friends we care about who are fighting this disease, as well so many others. If you can, please sponsor us! I will have sponsorship forms in on Tuesday and Wednesday and Robin will have them in on Sunday while we are “racing.”  Gill Alden

In addition to ReNew being present in the church as part of the Welcome Cafe and Listening Space that is open to absolutely everyone each Thursday, on the 6th July, a representative of the Hull City Council Wilson Centre information team will also be there.

This person will be able to take concerns or enquiries you may have about any of the City Council departments, from footpaths, planning applications, to Council Tax. 

Initially, this will be available from 11:00 until 12:30.

Naturally, we need to see what response there will be to this new service. This, like the situation with ReNew, will be monitored in order to gauge the interest for such information. If necessary, we will extend the time the two organisations are in church.

I must emphasise that this is available in the same way the Welcome Cafe and Listening Space are: to absolutely everyone.  That means you, your friends, family members, and even those who walk into the church for the very first time.

If you have any questions about either of these two organisations, or how you could be part of the Welcome Cafe and Listening Space team, please don’t hesitate to ask either Rev Irene or Tim.

JUDAH’S BAPTISM

On Sunday, Judah, son of  Revs. Hannah and Rob Suekarran, brother to Reuben, was baptised during the 11 o’clock service.  His grandmother created this wonderful tree, each leaf of which holds a message.  The verse of scripture underneath beautifully sums it up:

“Before I formed you in the womb  I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.”   Jeremiah 1:5

SATURDAY MUSIC IN THE MINSTER

The luscious sound of fifty wind, brass, and percussion players could be heard resounding throughout the Minster last Saturday. The afternoon concert was a collaboration between the Yorkshire Wind Orchestra and the Eclectic Wind Orchestra. Their programme included contemporary concert band music such as the Paris Sketches by Martin Ellerby and O magnum mysterium by Morten Lauridsen.    Ben Newton

Careforce workers 2009/2010

Do you remember the support given to Holy Trinity when we had Kamsat and Poacha Chongloi working enthusiastically with us as Careforce members on the Great Thornton Street Estate during 2009/2010?

I have recently received the attached email message from Kamsat with very disturbing news regarding the freedom of Christian worship out in Manipur; an area known as ‘land of gems’, in NE India. After you have read the message, please remember their communities in your prayers and pass on our concerns wherever possible.

With worrying concerns.

 Hi Jean,

Hope you are well. It been a very longtime since I left Hull and the Church that I still love.

I am writing to you this email asking for your valuable prayer support.

My people in Manipur are suffering, more than hundreds of Churches are burnt to ashes by some radical meitei people. The meitei are Hindus. They raped our women, killed even children and the elderly. 50.000 people are displaced everywhere in the country. Please search (if you have time) Manipur violence on the net. 

I want you share this story in Church. Right now I am save as I am in neighboring state. Internet has been suspended for 26 day now.

The State force, our CHIEF Minister is against us. The center Govt watches us from afar. BJP govt is against Christianity. 

There are refugees everywhere. We are lebelled as illegal immigrants/ terrorists. We have to defennd land, our villages and towns by our own.

We need world attention.

We have been asked by Olga, our Ukrainian friend, whether we are able to collect small toys for use at Welcome House. Welcome House provides daytime facilities for Asylum Seekers and Refugees in Hull and the East Riding. Often these are families with small children and at the moment they do not have toys for the children to play with.

If you can help, please bring things into the Minster, and leave for Irene. Thank you!

EXCITING JUNIOR CHURCH

It was great fun this week as children had to make decisions about what LOVE IS and what LOVE IS NOT.  They had a pack of ‘hearts’ saying such things as ‘kind’, ‘patient’, ‘grumpy,’ ‘jealous’, and they had to decide on which large heart on the board to paste these.  They were supposed to walk quickly but as you can see, that turned out to be more like running.  It was great and everyone enjoyed it, whilst learning important lessons

It was such a pleasure to be joined by Corey, Ellis, Jacob and Josh,this week when they visited the Jewish Living Experience Exhibition.  They first came to Hull Minster for a primary school education visit when they were pupil at Bude Park Primary School.

Now apprentices at Ron Dearing UTC, they remembered the communion activity they did with Jane and Irene and were able to relate this to what they saw in the exhibition.  We often wonder what impact education has on the youngsters we meet and have to wait a long time to find out.   They feel welcome and comfortable at Hull Minster and often meet up with their friends during their long Thursday lunch break. I think we can call this success! Jane Owen
