HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.‘ Now that St. Peter's, Bridge has become the Parish Church of the uni ted parish of Patrixbourne with Bridge, it is inter- esting to read this echo from the past — 1557 — quoted from :1 letter written to the Vicar by the Kent historian, V.J.'.I‘orr. "I think the following extract will interest you, from the Elarpsfield MS (A.l).1557) in the Cathedral Libary. It contains a lot of data. for all 3 Churches, and in time I will supply them for the magazine, but meantime here is this for Bridge, "a chapel annexed to Patrickesborn rectory":- "lIIemor:.nd11m that the perishoners of Bridge doo require that ther saide chappell of Bridge may be appoyncted to be "the hed churche to Patricksborn bicause as they saye ther saide chappell standithe in the myddest parts of the inhabi- tauntes of bothe parishes and that Patricksborn standeth in thuttermoste parts of the dwellers of the too parishes verey farre out of the waye". A rather highly—co1oured picture, but of course establish- ing that Bridge has always been the populous place. As, how- ever, it was always a mere chapel, it is remarkable that it named the whole deanery. .(Bythe did not, however —- as another chapel — being always in the Deanery of Elham). " It is proposed to print in the Magazine, monthly extracts from the history of the parishes, which Mr. Torr has kindly undertaken to write, and these will be of the greatest interest to us all. 4 FAMILY BUTCHERS CHAS.

This h3_.s been 3. 7 peculiar summer and I don't knov: yet whether the harvest and fruit crops are good._'- but there is much to be the.nlcf‘ul for and we shall look for.‘~Iard__te decorating the churches, ‘ with your best offerings of fruit, flowers,-‘wheat, hops etc. I hope that many of you will come :early on the Sxturday morning preceding your Harvest Festival Smday, and help to decorate. ‘ . At Bekesbourne I should very much like us to have a HARVEST SJPPEE in the new Hall at‘ the end of September. If the idea meets with approval we will announce the details later.

JUNIOR CHURCH NOTES Irnnuel Outing: We hztd perfectly splendid day at Folkestone ‘on 27th July and all of us thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was one of those days when we “.11 feel that we are members of one big family with parents and aunties and children all enjoying ourselves together. Junior Church — pest and4present. The holidays for this year are nearly over and it will soon be back to school once more. We shall start our class teaching on 10th Sept. and we hope to wclcone all our old members. To have roe: for any newcomers who care to join us and teachers who are keen to welcome them. All children from 3 years old are eligible to join us and, indeed, the most flourishing part of our Junior Church just new is the thfies with Janet Dove as their very competent teacher. it the other and we have a very skilled person in Hrs. Keigh, but very few of the older children, who would benefit from her \I_ knowledge and experience. '\_ -. There T‘.I‘t_; quite .2. number of children in Bridge who are ‘ growing up with no religion whatever in their lives and I ‘ would urge the parents of these children to think seriously about this prsblcm, which is theirs even more than it is ours. The neglect of Christian teaching of children in a Christian land is a serious business, both for the individual and for the country as 2 whole. The parent whose child "goes wrong” is responsible. The parent whose child his no religious teaching is harming the child. So many parents have under— taken the duties of Godparents to their own children in Baptism, and made no attempt to carry out their promises. We do realise that in many céses children do receive religious training at home, which is very valuable, but these children miss the fellowship of membership in the family of the Church, with all its privileges and responsibilities. Do please Semi the children to us, and let us help you and them. Xe want to.

No State aid or help from central Church funds is available. The F.W.O. Scheme enables you to pay your share regularly even if you are not able to come to church. Assess for yourself how much you should give each month, as a Thank-offering to God, place your contribution in the small F.W.O. envelope supplied with your Parish Magazine, and give it to your Magazine distributor or put it in the Collecting Bag or Alms Box at Church. If you care to pledge a definite amount by a seven-year Covenant (which by Income Tax refund almost doubles the amount you give) please contact the Vicar, or F.W.O. Secretary.

CHURCH DEDICATIONS The next thingrto consider is an important one _ church dedications. Every church, as a "House of God", is of course primarily consecrated to the Almighty; but only a F! thedral, although in course of centuries it has wavered betwefin 1711159 The H013!’ Trinity, and St. Thomas Becket), St. Saviour, the Holy Ghost (or spirit), and? comp-,rehgnsj_Ve]_y’ But from really early times it has been usual to dedicate a. church to some venemted humanbeing; in which C,-35¢ you must <'_11W?-bis understand the name of God behind this holy person, who 15 t‘3C-‘mic?-115’ known as the "patron saint" of the church. sometimes, however, there is found to be more than one? e_g_ SS’_Sim°n and Jude? Peter find P?-U]: Philip and James, and so on. It is probable that the oldest dedic,-ltions of all related to 73*”-1'tZ¥‘1'Ss <#-€- -3t"$I_3hC’Y1s Lawronccc, Alhan, and so forth. In such Cases the Church 111 question was sometimes built over or near their reputed. place of suffering for Christ; and others elsewhere would take over the same name. If you study ancient dcdications throughout Blgland, you will find that the greatest number of churches is dedicated to St. Mary, sometimes with the varied. title of our Lady. This Mary is of course not the Magdelen, nor any other mentioned in Holy Scripture, but the Blessed Virgin, mother of our Lord. The second place is taken by All Saints, or All Hallows. This is a Saxon dedication, and it is significant that within your own rural dcanery, the church of Stoumouth (All Saints‘) still displays a few remains of pro—Conquest buildi__ng.. -. —But it is'of“specia1 interest that in Kent alone of English counties, All Saints'give way, as to second place to the Apostles Peter and Paul, who have always been con- sidered the patrons of Christian Rome, just as were Romulus and Remus in its pagan times. The original dedication of the now destroyed, but once mighty abbey church in Canterbury, Which for ages before its end. was known as St. Augustine‘s or Austin's, was to this martyred pair, Peter and Paul. The re—eva.ngelisation of Kent was » - entirely under Roman influence, and this may go far to explain why in this particular county the Roman protectors became so popular. After the a.bbey's change of title, however, we begin to find St. Augustine appearing in country churches, and in most cases these are known at one time to have belonged to that abbey. In a. few cases, as at Elmstono, near Wingham, the dedication‘ is unknown. In others, it "has always been constant, but rests on nothing more than tradition. Some churches now merely called St. Peter's can be proved originally to have - home the joint title to him and to St. Paul, that wonderful man who more than anyone else made struggling Christianity a. seed which took firm root. -_ AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAA A A AAAAAAAAAAAA-.___ Established 1786 Deliver‘ Daily Throughout Bridge FM AA AAAAAAAAAA :3:2.:.......
