This weekend is a &#8220;Pause&#8221; for someone else, but last month it was down to me and after some reflection and a further discussion with her, I suggested the theme might be &#8220;challenge&#8221;. That one word was all that was needed for Barbara to conceive, design and produce a wonderful service that our Youth Group delivered and I have no doubt at all that this weekend\u2019s service will be equally inspiring.<br><br>Last month, we heard of the challenge of Ananias\u2019 fear of Saul, which he overcame, enabling him to restore his sight and totally transform Saul\u2019s persecution, into forceful support for Jesus and his disciples. Fear was overcome too in a delightful little playlet between two birds \u2013 the one encouraging the other to take the first leap towards being able to fly, which pointed up that the crucial first step towards conquering our anxieties, leads us to realise that often we worry needlessly and that things are not always as bad, or as difficult, as we first thought.<br><br>A reading by Jessica underlined the message that with any ambition we may have, we must just take those first steps, however small, to help us achieve our aims. She mentioned Baird with his television dreams and a wonderful story how, after a simple idea to use cans discarded in the desert in which to plant seeds, grass and ultimately crops appeared over a huge area previously barren. We have only to think of Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk and others who have become household names today, recalling that each huge organisation they have grown, which have had life-changing effects on us all, started either in a garage or a bedroom; we only have to think of them to realise that by rising to a challenge, great things can be achieved.<br><br>Malachi read from Luke\u2019s gospel, which was was tough in a different way, with Jesus urging the Rich Man to give away all his wealth and possessions and follow him if he wanted eternal life. We wondered whether he did change his mind after all and rise to Jesus\u2019 challenge? Moreover, it causes us to think &#8211; where do we stand? How would we react to being urged to give up all we own in our material lives? And even if not all we own, how much do we sacrifice for the benefit of others, whilst seeking to live what we believe is a Christian way of life, following the principal commandments to which Jesus referred in that reading. Tough questions are they not?<br><br>But challenge doesn\u2019t need to be all about fear or risk of failure. We can challenge someone\u2019s views or beliefs, without resorting to pistols and swords as used to happen centuries ago, and maybe learn something about ourselves in the process. We can challenge ourselves, either physically, for example by climbing mountains, running marathons and cycling hundreds of miles (like my family love to do), or simply walking more to benefit our health; by learning new skills, a new language perhaps, how to cook maybe; read more and learn about other countries, other faiths perhaps, which I confess I know all too little about. We tend to talk about the challenges of life, whether they be world and political matters, or personal physical, mental or financial issues, in a more or less negative way; and I suppose this is inevitable, since 24 hour news is constantly feeding us with the worst of what is happening around us, with only rare glimpses of heart-warming stories and news of the opportunities others are taking, to try to make the world a better place in which to live.<br><br>And opportunity is what I wanted us to focus upon and take away from that service a month ago, for in challenge there is also positive opportunity.<br><br>We in St Chad&#8217;s are currently facing enormous challenge \u2013 we haven\u2019t had a vicar for more than 2 years and much of the weight of keeping this Church fully functioning has fallen on a small but very willing and efficient number of shoulders. We hope and pray that a new incumbent will be found in the coming months, but just like us, other parishes are also without a priest, in the same position as ourselves and the pool of ordained clergy is hugely diminished.<br><br>We took a moment to look around us in Church that morning. Apart from our splendid Youth Group and members of their families, how many young faces did we see? Not many were there? And we are an ageing Church community. When you really think about it, the harsh reality is that St Chad\u2019s Church and all that happens here, for 80% of this community, apart from being an attractive building, is considered to be irrelevant. In 10 years or so, when many of us will no longer be here or unable to take active roles, will there be a functioning Church at all? What are we going to do about it?<br><br>Well, a lot of thought and work has already been put into this and you know that plans are made and seeking approval from the Diocesan authorities, to convert the North Aisle to create a more welcoming space, enabling a much broader range of activities to take place within our church building, giving us the opportunity to respond more widely to the needs of the community. This idea has been in discussion for years and the PCC are now fully committed to bringing it to fruition.<br><br>Allied with this, discussions are at an early stage about the possibility of offering part-time employment to a Families and Children\u2019s Worker, to help develop new interest and activities for our young people, pioneering new work that will enable children and families to encounter the love of God in the gospel of Jesus and to become part of our church as a more inclusive, all age community of faith. The PCC will be considering some proposals on this in the coming weeks and more detailed plans will be forthcoming, but please think about this and pray that it may be one of the ways in which we can overcome some of the challenges we are currently facing. We simply cannot afford to allow this plan to drag on for as long as those for the North Aisle have&nbsp; done \u2013 we need to rise to this challenge and have the courage to take those first steps towards a joint ambition.<br><br>Other opportunities are right before us, to build on the work which Tracey Williams has started in caring for those with dementia. The opportunity to create and nurture, within this planned new space, more activities for our young teenagers; to build on the formation of our new Kidz Club. The opportunity to host other events using the proposed new kitchen facilities; perhaps to combine a meal together before or after our services \u2013 something which happens regularly in other church denominations. These and other possibilities will all be open to us.<br><br>And with these plans and objectives, allied with all that we are already doing, how much more attractive might St Chad\u2019s be to any future incumbent?<br><br>Much to think about and pray about, is there not? So, just like those birds in the story I mentioned above, we need to take those first steps, have the faith to embrace the challenges we face, embrace the change which will inevitably have to take place, but welcome the opportunity this gives us to grow and develop as a church family, better to ensure that St Chad\u2019s endures for future generations.<br><br>Henry Ibberson<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"would-you-like-to-write-a-view-from-the-pews\">Would you like to write a View from the Pews?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We welcome contributions for View from the Pews from anyone who would like to write one, It does not need to be on any particular subject.
