j They had been broken-heart­ ed at the thought of every­


T


thing ending in tragedy. The attitude of the womenfolk


on that first Easter morning was that they had gone to pay their last


j respects to the dead body of Jesus. I They would be uncertain how the body had been treated during its hasty disposal before the Sabbath began at 6 p. m. Jesus had died at 3 p. m. and Joseph of Aramathea had


I managed to obtain permission to remove the body and arrange for it

f t ■ ■ f o r t h e w e e k


HE Resurrection came as quite a surprise to the followers of Jesus,


The disciples were grief-stricken


at their loss of the beloved leader, and the apparent failure of all their


plans and hopes. Mark, who relied so much on the


memories of Peter, tells how when women, wanted to anoint the body with spices their main thought was about the moving of the huge stone rolled across the tomb doorway. Such a large stone was too heavy


for them to move, but they found it had already been moved along its channel to reveal easy access. Going inside to see what remained to be done, they expected to find the body there. As their eyes grew accustomed to


the interior gloom, they saw a young man in a white robe there, who asked them not to be so


h-


amazed at the absence of the body. Jesus, whom they sought, had


risen from the deadl "Go and tell the disciples and


Peter," he said, and suddenly, afraid and bewildered, they fled from the tomb. Did you notice those words "and Peter"? The other gospel writ­ ers omit this special mention of Peter. He remembered what the women said, and how heartening those words were to him at the time when he had been filled with remorse about his denial. Jesus had left the special word for


followers into people radiant with joy and vibrant with inspired courage. The existence of a Christ­ ian church came about through the resurrection of Jesus. Their knowl­ edge and belief in the resurrection made all the difference to them. Ever since those times, believers


Peter in his need. He was more eager to comfort the sinner than to remember the sinful denial., Peter knew from that moment


that he was forgiven. : The resurrection appearances of


Jesus changed those demoralised ■


- &


have gone forward from knowing about Jesus to really knowing him personally as a abiding friend and companion. Today historians or great biblical authorities who know all about Jesus are less knowledge­ able of Him than the humblest believer who knows and experiences Jesus daily, as a living, loving pres­


ence. Because Jesus lives, we who


■ believe live also in Him, and He lives in us. Hallelulial Joe Stansfield

Fascinating insight i n t o W a d d i n g t o n l i f e


YET another fascinating book has been published giving wonder­ ful insight into the past world of a


Ribble Valley community. "Waddington-Village Life 1901 - 1951" by retired history teacher Miss Mary Barnes follows on her earlier book about, the 19th cen-


tury there.., , Miss Barnes, a lifelong Methodist


I closely connected with the village chapel, is also a keen worker for the


I Coronation Gardens. Holder of histo­ ry and economics degrees, she has taught in several parts of the country and even in New Zealand. After Miss Barnes retired to


Waddington over 20 years ago and found that there was little published material about the village, the profes- | sional historian in her impelled a


research project. Her first book came out in 1994


and the second one has just been published and is available at local shops and village outlets.


Original research started for the first book was supplemented by personal inter­


1


views for the second. In her foreword, Miss Barnes points out:


"As a new century begins the importance of preserving archives and other sources of information, and of using them to relate life and events of the past, is evident." Details which often escape notice are


important, she points out. Miss Barnes' own interests in. education


' and religion do not in any way stop her from giving other aspects of life their full


importance. The two world wars loom large, and the


number of Waddington organisations and institutions mentioned is quite remarkable. They include the hospital, the day


school, the reading room, the parish coun­ cil, the Ancient Order of Foresters, the vic­ arnirp the assembly rooms, the scouts, uie th

started, says Miss Barnes: "The inns had lost their stables, they had been replaced by dining rooms for an increasing number of visitors. Less work was being done at the smithy, while a garage that had appeared in Branch Road was busy repairing cars and milk lorries and selling electrical goods. Nor could the addition of 86 new houses escape notice in a village that had num­


bered only 136 in 1901." The inhabitants had changed too, notes


this astute historian: "A growing middle glass with rather more leisure and better transport was developing wider interests. More changes with even greater impact were expected to take place in the next


half-century." The book is packed with personal remi-
