If you haven\u2019t already put forward a View from the Pew, or even if you have, and feel moved or prompted in any way to share your own thoughts and reflections, please don\u2019t hesitate. Do send them in, either directly to Geoffrey (<a href=\"mailto:secretary@pattinghamchurch.org.uk\">secretary@pattinghamchurch.org.uk<\/a>) or to me (<a href=\"mailto:ibberson@uwclub.net\">ibberson@uwclub.net<\/a>) so that we always have a bank of Views upon which we can draw for each weekly edition. It\u2019s always best to avoid anything too political or contentious, as this is certainly not the forum for that, but it can be whatever strikes you \u2013 it doesn\u2019t have to have a particularly religious or spiritual dimension, though that is always to be welcomed \u2013 rather something about which you feel strongly, or which touches you in some way or another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which brings me to my, entirely secular, thought for this VFTP! Am I alone in feeling utterly frustrated by what one might be forgiven for thinking is the 2024 version of &#8220;The Emperor\u2019s new Clothes&#8221;? It seems to me that many are totally oblivious to the blindingly obvious facts of life (and you know what I mean here). There is also this drive to seek to re-write history (for what particular reason is often indiscernible) and here the Church also seems to have been caught up in Group Think (oops \u2013 this might be straying into a political arena \u2013 forgive me!) Frustrations too with the allegedly cost efficient, scaled-down commercial operations, which mean that it is invariably impossible to speak to a human and those awfully clever computer systems, so polite in their apologies for keeping us waiting, with their mind-numbing muzak, never actually solve our problems either. The \u2018helpful\u2019 Chat boxes online &#8211;&nbsp; where one is connected to \u2018personal assistants\u2019 with delightful names like Fiona and Darren, who respond to our request for a resolution of whatever problem we may have, with &#8220;let me have a look into this for you&#8221; \u2013 only to return, after our having watched some dots churning for a few minutes, with the teeth-clenching information that &#8220;we are unable to find records of your transaction, please ring \u2026\u2026.&#8221;!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And don\u2019t get me started on those endless acronyms! I can cope with NATO, UNICEF, SHAPE and even ASLEF, but I do struggle a bit with LGBTQ+ (remind me what the + is for?) and those others which keep appearing in our newspaper articles; when describing government initiatives and the activities of QUANGOS (I\u2019ve managed to master that one) and when one has to keep referring back to the beginning of the article to remind oneself of what on earth, whoever it is who\u2019s being referred to, is talking about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps I\u2019m getting old \u2013 as a matter of fact I am. But I was delighted to find some comfort in a recent newspaper article entitled &#8220;<strong>Text-speak for the over 50\u2019s<\/strong>&#8220;, which chimed with some of the views on acronyms I have expressed above \u2013 and here I quote:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8220;The young have their own shorthand for text messaging like <strong>LOL<\/strong> (Laugh Out Loud) \u2013 and <strong>OMG<\/strong> (Oh My Gosh). So former MEP David Campbell-Bannerman, known as <strong>DCB<\/strong>, has posted some timely text-speak for the busy over 50\u2019s. <strong>ATD<\/strong> is sent by someone At The Doctor; <strong>BFF<\/strong> means that they are at their Best Friend\u2019s Funeral; while <strong>BTW<\/strong> is a request to Bring The Wheelchair.<strong> FWIW<\/strong> is Forgot Where I Was, <strong>GGPBL<\/strong> is Gotta Go,Pacemaker Battery Low, and <strong>TFT<\/strong> is Texting From Toilet. <strong>NAW<\/strong> \u2013 Need A Wee &#8211; is also popular. I think it\u2019s time to <strong>PKO<\/strong> (Put Kettle On)&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I found that article rather reassuring and refreshing, allowing me to come up with an acronym of my own \u2013 <strong>WHTCS<\/strong> (Whatever Happened To Common Sense). Try it for yourself, it will help to keep you sane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other contributors have been so much better than me in putting forward their profound and meaningful thoughts and views, on a much higher plane than mine. But perhaps an important note upon which to finish this, somewhat frivolous, contribution, might be the only acronym really worth holding onto \u2013 that is <strong>GAWU<\/strong> (God\u2019s Always With Us).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">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\">Would you like to write a View from the Pews?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We welcome contributions for View from the Pews from anyone who would like to write one.

The Well also helps those locally in rural poverty. Last month a pallet of food was donated to Brewood Middle School; this is what they had to say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u2018We would like to say a huge thank you for your very kind and generous donation of food\u2026it has already been split into boxes and will go out to our families over the next few days. We cannot thank you enough. We would like to pass on our thanks to all concerned at the Well.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are extremely grateful for all donations. If you are looking for ideas on what to donate to The Well at the moment, the following are in short supply:<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \u2022 UHT Milk<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \u2022 Male Toiletries<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \u2022 Tinned Vegetables<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \u2022 Pasta Sachets<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \u2022 Rice Pudding<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \u2022 Custard&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At The Well we take our inspiration from Jesus Himself. We look back at His life and, even though He was the Son of God, His mission on earth was \u2018to serve\u2019, not \u2019to be served\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you think about how you might support The Well, maybe your \u2018service\u2019 is to hold us regularly in your prayers, maybe it is to support us financially if you are able, maybe to donate some food or&nbsp; encourage those around you to do so, or maybe it is to offer some of your time to The Well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many thanks for your continued support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"fete\">Pattingham Village Fete<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/fete-header_250x150.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"149\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/fete-header_250x150.jpg\" alt=\"Village Fete\" class=\"wp-image-11784\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The preliminary figures for the proceeds from the Fete show an estimated net proceeds of \u00a35,573.20.
