The Pearl of Great Price

From Phil Stone Jesus speaks of the Kingdom of God as like a merchant looking for fine pearls. He finds one of great value, then goes and sells everything he has to buy it. [Matt 13.45-46] So what is the pearl at Scargill? What has God shown of himself that is so precious, so valuable, that we would never want to lose it? Di and I have been here now almost six years, and what is for sure is that we won’t be here for ever. So what have we learnt since Scargill’s resurrection that we would want to treasure and nurture? Where do we see God’s Kingdom shining through? Here are a few pearls - the trinity of laughter, love and silliness, the strength of flexibility, a generous hospitality that has a genuine valuing of our guests. Yet the most obvious – which needs to be said - is the desire to keep Jesus at the heart of our life together. Lives shared, lives transformed with the lordship of Jesus Christ at the centre. So one of the pearls is the Community’s rhythm of prayer. It punctuates our day, refreshes and focuses us on our gracious God. Praying together is so important in a life of service that is costly and often tough. And Community life is tough; it can be a most difficult place, as our own limitations are revealed. Keeping Jesus at the heartbeat of our life together allows the Holy Spirit to bless our fragilities as well as our strengths, which can then be used to bring life to one another and to the guests who come through our doors. That leads to the pearl of genuine valuing of our guests. Our guests matter so much to us and our call is to love and care for them, just as they are. This gives space for God to begin to show them his gracious love. It has often been said that Scargill is a safe place to say

dangerous things; a place where people can feel at home in their joys and difficulties; and where they can truly join in the life of the Community. Community life is tough but also a place of joy and celebration. Adrian Plass speaks of the very serious business of cultivating and maintaining love, laughter and silliness. We’ve enjoyed that since our reopening. One of those places where it is experienced is the dining room. Eating together it not just enjoying good food (an unofficial catch phrase is ‘never knowingly under fed’) but enjoying companionship and laughter, sharing stories and playfulness. You cannot be serious if a piece of orange peel lands on your nose. Jean Vanier writes: ‘A meal is an important community event, which has to be well prepared and fully lived. It is a time when the joy of eating will merge with the joy of meeting – a marvellous human moment….. Laughter is excellent for the digestion.’ I would say that laughter is excellent not just for the digestion but for our inner being. Another pearl is the strength of flexibility. We are reminded of this every time the wind blows in the Chapel. It creaks and moves in response to the wind, bending rather than breaking. An organisation where the structures have become so rigid that it cannot bend or adapt, can feel like a suffocating experience. It’s hard to breath, and the welcome feels thin. The flexibility experienced by guests at Scargill has a ‘bespokeness’ about it. It’s a desire to respond if at all possible to a guest’s or group’s request, acknowledging that God has a plan for each one of them, and not a one-size-fits-all approach. This can bring some tension, with inevitable echoes of childhood murmurings ‘It’s not fair!’ The Kingdom of God isn’t fair; it’s overwhelmingly generous. To have a bespoke attitude we will always need a bucket overflowing with wisdom and kindness. Some people, when they come to Scargill, look out of the Sun Lounge window and say, ‘Look at that view!’ It is amazing, the pearl of the Yorkshire Dales. Some people go down to the Walled Garden which is such a precious and life-giving space – a real pearl. Some people go into the Chapel and experience peace, and for many they associate Scargill with the Chapel – a pearl that shimmers beautifully across the Dale. But the pearl that is so precious above all of these is a bunch of ordinary, diverse folk obediently trying their very best to be God’s generous offering to one another and to all who come through Scargill’s doors. It will never be straightforward. It’s risky. It’s messy. But it is the grit in the oyster that produces the pearl of great price.

Creating community in Hungary From Peter Kovacs in Budapest In Nehemiah chapter three, we read about all the people who took part in rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem. Among them is a group we don’t know much about, only that they were from a town called Zanoah. Yet they found themseves in the middle of a great work that would fulfill God’s promise to restore his people and ultimately bring salvation to the world. Since 2010, around 40 people from Hungary have joined Lee Abbey Devon and Scargill Community. Most have returned home with a renewed passion for Christ. Why would God call this many people to join these communities and then send them back to their own country? Could He have a greater plan for us, with our specific experiences? If so, what? That’s the question we’ve been wrestling with for a few years. It’s why we started a Hungarian Friends Group (where we have been praying for Lee Abbey and Scargill). We also went to Devon for the Friends week – and found ourselves in the book of Nehemiah studying this picture of rebuilding the wall. Hungary has been through a lot of oppression including, most recently, Communism. But the nation has survived. Spiritually, it looks like a broken wall. Our Christian roots go deep, but after 26 years we are still slowly waking up. Since the end of Communism, our local churches and Christian schools have reopened their doors, so there is a vast opportunity to reach people. I believe our call is to get alongside these churches and schools and other organisations and build the Kingdom together. We are mainly a dispersed community at the moment, although four of us live in the same house. We have started a rhythm of prayer and many of us, whether pastors, missionaries, teachers or witnesses to Christ in other ways, are already involved in various missions. This gives us the opportunity to support them and to be mediators of unity across denominations and organisations. For example, there are two youth movements in the Reformed Church, SDG Student Movement and REFISZ. One focuses on secondary school students; the other on local church youth groups. But there are countless opportunities the two could share. By having community members involved in both, we can build bridges between them. But it has been a challenging first year. Living spread out in a city with very different lifestyles is completely different from living in a residential community with a shared rhythm of life. So we would really appreciate your prayers for God’s guidance! If you would like to find out more about what we do, please visit our website: www.zanoah.org

Joining the dance of the Trinity From Amy Daniel in Singapore Last summer, I was drawn to that exceptional corner of the English Yorkshire Dales, Scargill House. The Scargill Movment logo, ‘Lives shared, lives transformed’ had proved true for me last year, and I was greedy for more. Having signed on as a Scargill ‘Friend’, I arrived for the ‘Celebrate Scargill’ weekend, Scargill‘s 56th birthday party. The many Scargill Friends and Companions were joined by folk from a L‘Arche Community in Wales - a group of adults with learning difficulties and the volunteers who live in community with them. During the weekend, Chaplain Jackie Reily introduced the Holy Trinity as the dancing trio - the Father, Son and Holy Spirit dancing together as equals and in rhythm! This God is asking us, ‘Will you have this dance with me?’ Nothing in my 12 years of convent education, nor a lifetime of (often turbulent) journeying with my God, had prepared me for such an image of the Trinity. Then, surprise, surprise, we were invited to do a dance, and there we were, adults, even senior citizens, all dancing around the room to live music. Scargill‘s other chaplain, Andreas Andersson introduced the fascinating notion of Christian community as a ‘flawed and floundering’ community of real people, journeying together in an adventure in God‘s grace - warts and all! How profound is that! He also introduced us to John Lynes who has decided to spend his 80’s in the Hebron Valley in Israel, trying to ‘minimize the violence’. Asked why he was doing this instead of ‘retiring’, he replied, ‘Christians need to be vulnerable.’ I was blown away by such a radical way of living out the gospel message. Yet Jesus made a conscious choice to be murdered by violent torture on the cross. Could there be a more graphic image of human vulnerability? Thanks to the L‘Arche community and to Paul (Jackie’s husband), the Sunday Liturgy will remain etched in my memory. We marched into the chapel to rhythmic L‘Arche drums - to find party poppers and hooters in the pews! I’d never seen such things in church before. Then, instead of the gospel reading, the L‘Arche community dramatised the story of the Good Shepherd, most of them acting as sheep, sound effects and all! Praying the Lord‘s Prayer in sign language was also most memorable - words cannot describe the experience. Praying with our bodies is simply transformational. After Holy Communion, we danced the conga, snaking down the aisles between the pews while singing, ‘We Are Marching in the Light of God’. So…my second visit to Scargill was even more ‘transformational’ than my first. Scargill is a spiritual powerhouse where God‘s presence is palpable and his mystic manoeuvres are translated into memorable milestone moments. And I got a glimpse of God‘s Future as manifested by a ‘flawed and floundering community’. No real surprise that a few days later saw me making the Promises, all by myself, at the Holy Communion service, to move from being a Scargill ‘Friend’ to a Scargill ‘Companion’ and choosing to live the Scargill Pathway of Life.

Planning for the future From Stephen Weatherley, Chairman of the Project Development Committee As I look back to when we first purchased Scargill, we have much to praise God for! We have seen the amazing growth of the spiritual ministry with the Community sharing their love of Christ through generosity and hospitality to a wide range of guests. Four phases of work have already been completed and we have witnessed overwhelming generosity from so many people. The gifts of their time, talents, and donations have enabled so much to be achieved. In 2013, we reviewed our Masterplan in the light of the expanding ministry at Scargill. Now we have submitted new plans to Yorkshire Dales National Park, who asked us for a long-term Masterplan rather than piecemeal applications. The first four phases Looking back, in Phase 1 (2009), we dealt with issues such as: electrical wiring, plumbing, drains, fire alarms, roof repairs and making Community buildings habitable. In Phase 2 (2011), we refurbished Cragdale to give us much needed en-suite bedrooms, The Chapel Lift from the outside, with the new installation for UV water treatment, in line with our three standards for landscaping and fire escape. developing Scargill: Quality, Beauty and Simplicity. In Phase 3 (2013), we replaced our oil-fired boilers with ‘Baldwin’, our new biomass boiler. This has substantially reduced heating costs and our environmental impact as well as making Scargill warmer for everyone. Phase 4 (2015) was the construction of the Chapel Lift, which blends in so well with the iconic lines of our beautiful chapel. The new planning application is necessary for us to proceed to the next stages of development. These are: replacing the Marsh Lounge roof; raising the Aysgarth roof to give better headroom on the first floor, a necessary prerequisite for future development; step-free access to the chapel lift without leaving the main building. Subject to planning and funding availability, we would like to start this Phase 5 work in 2017.

Looking further into the future, we are planning the following: a major development of Three Peaks to give more bed spaces and upgrade accommodation; relocating the kitchen into Lower Aysgarth and enlarging the dining room by roofing over the gap between the two buildings; upgrading all the old house bedrooms; modifying the entrance area and roofing over the courtyard. The final stage will be new community accommodation to replace Pent, Pentex and Jubilee. This long-term development plan is likely to take us perhaps 15 years or more to complete. I would like to thank the many people who have helped us on this journey, not only my fellow members of the Project Development Committee but also the Scargill Council and Community as well as the architects, quantity surveyors and contractors who have worked with us. For me, Scargill continues to be an Adventure of Faith and calls for much prayer and guidance from our Lord as we look ahead in faith. God has blessed us mightily thus far. We pray for His continued blessing for the future.

Up and running! ‘Lazarus’ as the Chapel Lift has been named, is up and running. The installation of the lift is a statement of intent, and demonstrates our commitment to making the chapel accessible to all. It is also Stage One of the overall plan to make access to the chapel possible without the need to climb any stairs at all. Stage Two, which is part of the new Master Plan, includes another lift enabling level access all the way as well as to large parts of the rest of the house. The lift project took some 20 weeks and cost overall about £160,000 including professional fees. Because the chapel is a Grade 2* Listed Building, this entailed extra work and the specification and materials had to comply with special regulations. Other work was involved as well. We had to reroute our main water supply. At the same time, we installed an Ultra Violet water treatment unit. This makes our water treatment much more robust and enables us to halve our chlorine dosing level. We have also improved surfacing in the Marsh Lounge garden and the fire escape route from Cragdale.

The lift can carry up to 8 people (plus or minus dogs!) Helen , on the right, was here recently with her assistance dog.

Where possible we try to use local tradesmen, so the main contractor for the lift project was Roger Tiffany of Skipton. We look forward to welcoming all those involved in this project to a celebration meal before Christmas.

Adventure of a (mid) life time From Jon & Ella Sharples Approaching 50, having spent 20 years in church leadership and with our four children grown and flown, we took the decision to sabbath: to take time to discern God’s leading and his invitation to us as individuals for what lies ahead in the next 20 years. We felt a strong call to simplify life and part of that was selling and giving away 90% of our possessions - a scary but ultimately incredibly releasing process. It funded Ella & Jon Sharples in New Zealand a six month journey across three continents in over 60 homes. We often stayed with Christians who were living and working in radically different contexts, including Benedictine and contemporary monastics, pioneer ministers and small missional communities. (We also did couch surfing, air B & B, sleeping in cars and a brief stay in a commune run by an insane cult leader.) Part of the purpose was to meet as many people as possible who could articulate a sense of vocation about their life and work, both laity and clergy. Our intention was to learn something from them about God’s calling and their discernment in different contexts and at different stages of life and ministry. We also wanted to understand a bit more about vocation in mid-life. (And because we’d come up with a great name for a blog “amidlifechristis.com” you can follow some of the journey on that.) We resigned from the parish jobs we had and became jobless and homeless, embarking on what our children called our ‘hippy gap year’. The people we met, the adventures we’ve been faced with - from crocodiles and charging elephants to dreadlocked bishops and Maori Hells Angels; from armed escort in Johannesburg to the simplest of living in a remote New Zealand monastery - this year has been filled with so much that we will be learning from it for years to come. We have experienced new and ancient ways of being church and are convinced that taking time out in mid-life brings huge personal benefits. We find ourselves journeying for a while with the Scargill community as we move through the end of our sabbath year and on into the second half of life, excited at the path ahead.

In the soup By Helen Brocklehurst It’s lunchtime; as you enter there’s a kettle by the door. It’s full of soup made out of things you might have seen before. It’s made from last night’s vegetables and some of Tuesday’s too, a glut of parsley from the greenhouse and a bit of Thursday’s stew. When tidying the cellar we found parsnips left to rot but we chopped off all the bad bits and the rest are in the pot. There was a funny-looking beetroot – we couldn’t serve it whole but in the mix and liquidised it ends up in your bowl. There’s even crouton garnish made from this morning’s toast and a lonely Yorkshire pudding, the last of Sunday’s roast. Our daily offering’s unique, it’s never the same twice! The recipe sounds awful but surprisingly it’s nice. So join us at the table, you’re welcome as you are – with gifts and strengths and weaknesses, sorrows, joys and scars. You learn the thing that nourishes, the love you find outpoured is made from broken folks like us, creatively restored.

Much to celebrate! With more challenges ahead! This last year we managed to pay the final instalment of the original £1million that enabled us to buy Scargill at the end of 2008. The Mountain has been moved (!) thanks to the generosity of people who have caught the vision of what God is doing at Scargill. We are so grateful for your support as this is definitely an important milestone in the life of the resurrected Scargill. However, we are still not debt free as we have loans which amount to £145k. These loans have been used for development work and are repayable on various dates up to September 2018. With Scargill now well established, fee income covers our running costs on an annual basis. We also have a healthy working balance to bridge any gap between income and expenditure. It has always been vital to ensure that our buildings remain fit for purpose. With that in mind, plans for 2016 include: creating additional community accommodation and facilities for campers in the garage under Pent; refurbishment of the ‘old house’ bedrooms; making the walled garden wheelchair accessible; improving the volunteers accommodation in Aysgarth; installing locks to more bedrooms. Looking further ahead to 2018, we plan to improve internal disabled access and make the Marsh Lounge watertight (maybe for the first time in its history!). So, is gift income still needed? Oh Yes! We will use it to replace equipment and carry out improvements to the buildings and estate. We also need it to fund major work and to cover reduced activity during the planned ‘build’ periods. Gift income makes it possible for Scargill’s ministry to continue to flourish whilst further development is carried out.

In July this year, the Community had great pleasure in welcoming 38 young people from the USA, Germany, South Africa and the UK. Ablaze had been two years in the planning and was an event hosted in partnership between the Scargill Community and the West Yorkshire and the Dales Diocese. The vision for Ablaze was to bring together Christian young people from across the world. The aim was to enable them to discover together what it means to live a life of faith alive in Jesus, experiencing God’s love through hospitality, respect, genuine welcome, laughter and love. Steve Grasham, Children’s and Young People’s advisor for the Diocese said, ‘Ablaze surpassed many expectations as young people shared their faith and grew closer to God.’ The young people took part in a varied and interactive programme based on ‘Hearts on fire …’ for Jesus, for mission, for love etc. The days were a mixture of teaching, small group time and lots of group activities and fun. The house (and quite possibly the Dale!) was positively shaking in the evenings to the sound of praise and laughter, as we gathered together for an International evening, ceilidh, quizzes,

Taize service, prayer and praise and a grand finale concert with Jonny Walker and band. It was a privilege to have been a part of the planning and facilitating of such an exceptional event. The prayer and praise evening in particular reduced me to tears.’ When asked about their best bits, one young person from South Africa said, ‘I’ve had an amazing experience in the UK that is built on friendship. I have a new family from all over the world now.’ Another from Germany said, ‘Ablaze has helped me to let go, and let God in.’ The best bit for me was being able to open our home to these marvellous young people, to create a safe environment for them to be themselves and explore what it means to be a follower of Jesus. We are very excited to announce we will be hosting Ablaze 2017. Don’t forget to pack your dancing shoes! Linzi, Youth & Children’s Worker at Scargill House

Friends abroad Martyn and Gini Crompton, Scargill Friends & Companions, are currently in Bangkok. Martyn is working there as Associate Minister in a voluntary capacity for six months with Tim Eady, Vicar of Christ Church, a friend from days at Cranmer Hall 33 years ago. ‘The rush hour(s) of traffic,’ they write, ‘are rather different from the Yorkshire Dales! Life here is rich and varied. We’ve been with ex POW’s to the River Kwai, also to the Immigrant Detention Centre, where several church members are incarcerated and will go again. Church life is busy with two Sunday services, at 7.30 and 10am, attended by up to 30 different nationalities followed by lunch and an Alpha course. We are both involved in Bible Studies and teaching English conversation during the week.’

Scargill made quite an impact at the Kettlewell Horticultural show. With a total of 101 entries in the various categories, we carried off 39 prizes, won by 39 different people. Back in June, Paul Reily, our fundraiser, organised a sponsored Three Peaks Walk. This raised about £14,000 for the Chapel Lift project, partly through sponsors and partly through other friends who caught the vision and made additional contributions.
