RECTOR'S LETTER.

My Dear Parishioners,

In this issue of our Parish Magazine we print a

detailed statement of the result of the appeal sent out

by the Select Vestry, asking you for a thank-offering

for peace, as well as for the blessings of harvest, on

Sunday. Oct. 16th. Behind that very moderately

worded appeal lay the very gloomy situation, viz., that

unless £100 could be found now, the parochial balance

sheet would show an adverse balance running into

three figures on December 31st, when our accounts

close for the current year. On Sunday morning, Oct.

9th, I deemed it my duty to draw your attention to

the circumstances which prompted your Vestry's appeal,

and I then expressed my belief, that if you realised

the need, you would not allow such a state of affairs

to exist. The result has more than justified my

confidence in you. I thank Almighty God for your

response to that appeal, it shows that Church people

still value their Church, its ministrations and services

and what it stands for in this changing, perplexing

world. In 1870 when the Church of Ireland was

dis-established and dis-endowed, the outlook was very

black, its enemies and pessimists prophesied its

destruction. But what happened? Her enemies were

disappointed, the pessimists were wrong. Why? The

laity of their Church saw the need for their help, they

realised their responsibility, they acted promptly, with

self-sacrificing devotion in making provision for the

maintenance of their Church's services and what then

seemed disaster has proved to be a blessing. That

spirit of self-sacrificing devotion for Christ's Church

in this land so evident in 1870, is still with us.

No Churchman worthy of the name will ever stand

by and see the Church's work suffer or curtailed

through lack of financial support. John Wesley was

indeed expressing the mind of Christ our Master, when

he said: — “the work of God will never stand still for

want of money so long as He has the hearts of all men

in His hands." It is most gratifying to see the names

of so many of our young people in the thank-offering

list, and I know that very many of you, young and old

have made a real sacrifice, for this let us all thank God.

You have responded generously to this appeal to

enable your Vestry to balance their accounts for 1938

But what of the future? The appeal was a dual one—

(1) for an immediate response on Oct. 16th, (2) for

greater and wider support by you for the Weekly

Freewill Offering system of this parish in 1939. With

the strictest economy it takes £600 per year to maintain

the Church services, etc. For the past two years

to meet this the Vestry has received from W.F.O. and

Church collections £450 per year. This means that

another £3 per week must be found. This should not

be a hardship in a parish such as ours which boasts

of thousands of Church-people. The idea behind the

Weekly Free Will Offering system is that it enables

each wage-earner to contribute weekly an amount

which at the end of the year amounts to a sum which

could not be given annually or even quarterly. On

behalf of your Select Vestry, I appeal to every

wage-earner in this great parish prayerfully to consider

for 1939, whether you could not increase your weekly

contributions by at least 3d per week. Let our standard

be not what others give, not how little can I give but

how much can I give. If this is done our 1939 report,

when printed, will not show, as previous ones have

shewn scores of meagre contributions, which are, to

put it plainly, an insult to Almighty God. When each

parishioner does his or her bit, just as you have done

it with reference to the Harvest Thank-offerings, in

a self-sacrificing spirit, realising the seriousness of the

issues at stake, I believe your Vestry will be relieved

of the impossible and intolerable position in which they

have been placed during the past few years.

Again, I am confident that you as individuals will rise

to the occasion, when you weigh the matter, as I have

tried to put it to you. If you are satisfied that in

God's sight you are doing all you can for His Kingdom

in this place, encourage others to take their responsibility

seriously. Pray earnestly that neither here nor anywhere

in the world God's work may be hindered by lack of

support from the people, who profess to be His servants.

Pray, too, that you and all His people may be enabled

to witness for Him in daily life, — and let us not forget

that one of the most effectual ways of witnessing for

Him is by regularly attending His House on Sundays,

to ascribe Him the worship and honour due to His

Holy Name.

Your sincere Pastor and Friend,

JOHN W. APPELBE.


THE HARVEST FESTIVAL SERVICES.

Commencing on the last Sunday in September there

took place each week-end up to and including Oct. 23rd,

a service or services at some centre in the parish for

the blessings of Harvest. As usual the various halls

were tastefully decorated and reflect great credit on the

helpers in those halls. It was no easy matter to provide

fifteen special preachers, but through the kindness of

our neighbouring clergy this was satisfactorily arranged;

we owe them a deep debt of gratitude for their helpful

addresses, which were much appreciated.

The change of the week-night Harvest Festival service

from Thursday to Monday night has more than justified

itself, and we intend this to be our custom in years to

come. In spite of the wet, stormy weather, a splendid

array of flowers, etc., was sent in to decorate the Church.

To those who sent flowers, vegetables, etc., we convey

our best thanks and also to those who helped to arrange

them in the Church.

The choir's rendering of the anthems and special

music was of a very high standard. Miss Montgomery

took the solo part of one of the anthems on Sunday

night and Monday night with dignity and expression

in a manner worthy of the occasion. Our Parish

Church choir is one of which any country church might

justify be proud, and we congratulate Mr. T. H. Wilson.

who trained them, and Mrs. Casey, who played, on the

success of their efforts.

We missed Miss Rachel England at the Harvest services;

she was absent through illness. She is a regular and faithful

member of our choir, and we hope she soon will be able to

be with us again.

ADVENT.

The season of Advent, which marks the beginning of

the Church's year, begins this year on Sunday, Nov. 27th.

During Advent there will be a mid-week service in

the Parish Church each Wednesday evening at 8 p.m.,

commencing on Wednesday, Nov. 30th, which also

happens to be St. Andrew's Day. The Edenderry mid

week services will be discontinued during Advent.

The Sunday School year of our Parish ends on

Sunday, Nov. 20th. Sunday School Superintendents are

reminded to make up their prize lists up to and including

Sunday Nov. 20th. Advent Sunday is the beginning of

the Sunday School year. This is a suitable opportunity

to grade the classes in the various schools.

ARMISTICE-TIDE SERVICE.

In accordance with our usual custom the annual

Armistice-tide Service will be held in Seagoe Parish

Church, on Sunday, November 6th, at 11.30 a.m. The

preacher will be the Rev. Herbert Lyndsay, Rector of

St. Bartholomew's Parish, Belfast and the collection

over and above the average Sunday one will be in aid

of the Earl Haig Poppy Day Fund for Wounded

ex Servicemen and their dependents.

OBITUARY.

In this issue we regret to chronicle the passing

amongst us to the “Church Triumphant" of three

parishioners. Mrs. Walker had reached a great age;

most of her life she had spent in Drumcree parish,

but she lived with her son in this parish for some

years and she preserved her simple faith strong to

the end. Mrs. Dermott and Mrs. Weir were both

called in the prime of life, both will be sadly missed

in their homes. For the bereaved we pray that in

their sorrow they may be strengthened and comforted

by our Master Jesus Christ, in whose loving care

and protection those who pass on still live.

C.L.B. GUEST TEA.

A very successful guest tea, organised by the officers

of the C.L.B., was held on Tuesday, Oct. 25th, in

Edenderry Parochial Hall. The gross receipts amounted

to £12 8s 6d; miscellaneous expenses £l 8s 6d, leaving

a balance of £11.

After a sumptuous tea, provided by the officers and

their lady friends, a varied programme was given by

the following artistes: —Miss Rutherford, A.L.C.M

violin selections; Master Sam Crabb, recitations;

Mr. Norman Lyttle, songs; Mr. J. Hynes, songs; and a

Short sketch by Messrs. Hynes and Sinton. Miss T.

Wilson L.L.C.M., played the accompaniments.

The Rector, on behalf of the Parochial Hall Committee,

expressed his thanks to Capt. Mitchell and the

officers of the C.L.B., the artistes, and their helpers

for their practical help; also, to the audience for their

generous support. The net proceeds will be devoted

to the Parochial Hall Renovation Fund.

THE MOTHERS' UNION.

The monthly meeting took place on Tuesday, Oct,

13th, in Seagoe School at 7.30 p.m., when the Rector

(in the unavoidable absence of Mrs M'Curry, who had

promised to speak) gave a short address on prayer.

The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 8th

at 7.30 p.m.

A most successful cinematograph lecture under the

auspices of the Mothers' Union was kindly given by

Mr. Chas. Lamb on Tuesday, 29th Sept., in Edenderry

Parochial Hall to a large and appreciative gathering.

As a result, almost £11 was realised for the Rectory

Building Fund. The films shown dealt with the

Coronation, the Royal Visit to Northern Ireland, a trip

to the U.S.A., and a film of local interest showing a

recent carnival in Richhill. The pictures were excellent

and Mr. Lamb's running commentary was both

humorous and illuminating.

On behalf of the M.U., the Rector, who presided,

conveyed an informal vote of thanks to Mr. Lamb for

his kindness and trouble in coming to show his interesting

films.

About

Seagoe Archives

In March 2019 this website was launched by Seagoe Parish. It contains digital access to the earliest editions of the parish magazines from 1905 until 1935. This project was supported by Heritage Lottery Fund and completed in early 2020. In the winter of 2020-2021 the earliest Seagoe Parish archives from 1672 to 1734 were published.
