Part time Team Administrator and Youth Worker posts
    The Kent Estuary Youth project is a charity based in Milnthorpe, serving the
    surrounding villages; it was founded by local churches six years ago. Our
    programmes, developed with young people of secondary school age, aim to
    provide fun and engaging activities that also create opportunities for young
    people to find ways of coping with the personal, social and emotional
    challenges they face. We have an expanding range of provision and ambitious
    development plans.

    We are now looking for an Administrator to join our growing and supportive
    youth work team. (8 hours pw; £12.50 to £14.00 ph depending on experience)
    As an integral part of the team, you will need the experience and confidence to
    take a lead responsibility for organising and delivering the administrative
    functions that support the programme of activities and the efficient functioning
    of your colleagues in the team. You will be a self-starter/self-motivated and
    identify with our activity and approach. There can be some flexibility about the
    hours, but they will be spread over at least three days.

    We are also looking for an additional, sessional Youth Worker for a minimum of
    16 hours possibly rising to 22hrs. There can be some flexibility about the hours
    worked, but they will generally be out of school time. You may or may not have
    a youth work qualification, but you will have had experience of enabling young
    people to explore issues of relevance to them and to acquire competencies
    that help them to realise their full potential. You will be comfortable with our
    commitment to youth participation.

    You can find more about KEY by going to our website:

With your support, Milnthorpe Art Exhibition has provided an
entertaining event each summer for 30 years up to 2019. The Exhibition has
been popular with visitors and artists, and together over all those 30 years we
have raised over £180,000 for the church and for many other charities and
good causes that serve local people.
The Exhibition was cancelled in 2020 due to statutory Covid restrictions and in
2021 due to the ongoing pandemic making people reluctant to volunteer. The
Exhibition is very complex and requires sufficient volunteers to help with
receiving the display stands from store and building them in St Thomas’
Church, receiving around 700 paintings, hanging about 400 paintings,
stewarding, catering, selling about a third of paintings displayed and finally
returning unsold paintings, dismantling the display stands and lighting and
moving them to store.
Sadly, the call for volunteers for the 2022 Exhibition again resulted in a
significant shortfall. The Management Committee felt it could not operate safely
or commit expenditure without sufficient volunteers in place, so it decided to
cancel the Exhibition once again.
The future of the Exhibition will be determined at the Annual General Meeting in
November 2022. Some members of the current Management Committee,
including myself, have indicated that they will not be standing for the Committee
again. It needs a Committee of around 8 dedicated Members to run the
Exhibition safely and successfully with the help of volunteers. If we are unable
to form a new Committee in November, I will be recommending that we should
celebrate our success over 30 years, but disband the Exhibition at the AGM.
If you feel the Exhibition should continue and you are interested in joining the
Committee, please contact us through our website,
www.milnthorpe-artexhibition.co.uk

Dear Friends

 letter                 A special whole-school event was being held by the
                        Christians in a secondary
                        school. By means of invitation
                        they gave out free sweets
along with a little slip of paper, which read:
‘The best things in life are free. John 3:16’.
After a while, one lad came back and asked, ‘Who
is this John I have to meet at quarter past three?
And where do I meet him?’
These curious numbers which caused the chap such confusion have been
printed in Bibles over a few centuries as a way to locate a particular
sentence in the Bible. With so many printings of the Bible, we cannot rely
on page numbers and so chapter and verse numbers took prominence.
The reference John 3:16 is one of the most quoted. You might remember
how someone in the crowd would hold it up on a placard at major football
tournaments. At FIFA World Cup matches in the 1990s, one wag made a
sign displaying ‘Jack 3:16’, in honour of Mr Charlton, the Republic of
Ireland’s then manager.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” reads John
3:16
This has been called the most famous sentence in all literature. However a
famous sentence can also become too familiar and read like a hackneyed
cliché.
It is certainly a sentence to be remembered. It speaks of love, a gift and a
hope – vital components of human existence and relationship. Yet these
priceless commodities come from outside ourselves and are quite
undeserved. The focal point of these things is the Jesus and his cross.
Not only does it seek to explain the cross, this sentence explains
Christians, what motivates and animates them. They are not do-gooders
who are trying to get into God’s good books by their charitable acts or
hymn singing. Rather as recipients of that wonderful gift of Christ and his
rescue, they have found it is made for sharing. John 3:16 is a sentence to
recall: a love that gives so generously, a gift that is undeserved completely
and a hope that is offered so widely.
The school pupil misread his invitation containing ‘John 3:16’. I hope he
recognised the invitation contained within John 3:16.
