The Rector Writes...
Dear friends
Having recently celebrated Pentecost I think it is worth reflecting on the
meaning of life in the Spirit. The Spirit comes to do a number of things. He
convicts us of our need for God’s love in our lives and, consequently, helps
us to understand who Jesus is and what he has done for us. As we put our
trust in God, the Spirit helps us to become like Jesus in our character and in
the way we live our lives. In other words, the Spirit empowers us to be the people of God for our own times. What does this mean? It means that
the Spirit confers gifts on us and inspires us to love other people and to build
caring communities. Quite quickly we realise that we are totally dependent
on the Spirit’s presence in our lives and this is why, with Christians around the world, we pray: come Holy Spirit!
June will be a busy month for us. We look forward to the fete on Saturday 9th
June. I look forward to welcoming as many of you as possible to support the
day and to participate in any way you can. The fete proves to be one of the
highlights of our calendar and an excellent opportunity for team work and
community building. It will also be an opportunity to see all the
developments in the Parish Centre!
Finally, you may remember that the Select Vestry and I wrote to you
outlining the importance of giving to support the day to day workings of the
parish. I am very grateful to those of you who have already been in touch.
If you have not yet responded to the invitation to review your giving may I
encourage you (gently!) to do so? It is especially beneficial to the parish if
we can reclaim the tax on the amount that you are able to give in any
financial year. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me
or Bob Wallace, the honorary treasurer. (See back of Tidings for contact
details).
I trust you will all have a peaceful and enjoyable summer.
In Christ’s love Will iam

If the date you have been scheduled for is not possible please feel free to swap with
someone else on the rota. Please deal directly with the person concerned and
remember to make contact with them in good time!
If you are reading from an Epistle please conclude the reading with the words:
Th is is the Word of the Lord.
If you are reading from the Gospel only use the wording for a
Communion service if it is in fact a communion service. Otherwise please
conclude the reading with the words: Th is is the word of the Lord.
The congregation need only stand for a Gospel reading if it is Communion.
Finally, whether you are reading or leading prayers please remember to
speak slowly, clearly and loudly ! Even with a mic’ the volume is not
sufficient for all members of the congregation.
Many thanks for your participation in our worship.

A Word From The Curate
As I write these few words, the country is preparing to ‘Go to the Polls’ in
a Referendum on ‘The Stability Treaty’ where there are essentially five
categories of potential voters. How can this be when the only option is to
vote either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’? The answer is straightforward, uncomplicated,
obvious and of course simple and intricate! This is Ireland. Why restrict
the process to a simple ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ when a ‘Maybe’, ‘Won’t’ or just
‘Don’t know’ will do?
A Proclamation was issued throughout the land that every citizen should
vote.
But ‘the call’ to exercise what is a very cherished and privileged human
right ran into difficulty. There were those who heard ‘the call’ but before
it could be explained to them, they shut their ears and eyes and declared:
‘We will not be voting’. They weren’t even inquisitive. They had decided
they nobody was going to tell them they had to use all those unnecessary
muscles—to hold a pencil! They were not going to exercise their fingers
let alone their democratic right!
Then there were those who were unsure. Would they vote No or would
they vote Yes. Choices, choices, why was everything in life always so
difficult. Why couldn’t there be just one possible answer? But if that was
case who would chose that one possibility? Why couldn’t someone else
decide? It is so unfair that decisions seem to be always left to the
undecided!
Then it was the turn of those who had decided to vote No. When asked
Why they were voting No, they responded by saying: Well, we didn’t know
enough about what we were voting about and so we thought we had
better vote No. Just to clarify the matter, they were saying Know how was
more important than No now!
So then it was the turn of all who were sure they had the correct answer.
Will you be voting? ‘Yes’. How will you be voting? ‘Yes’. Do you think
the Treaty vote will be carried? ’Yes’. Do you have a view on the
importance of this Treaty? ‘Yes’. What is that view? ‘Yes’!
Last, but by no means least, will be that mysterious group of people who
will neither vote Yes or No, but somehow will manage to vote Yes and No
at the same time! A remarkable achievement!
Perhaps we can recognise ourselves amongst these categories of
individuals. Not so much with regard to voting but with regard to our own
faith and commitment. We do have a choice as to how we respond to
‘THE Call to Follow Me.’ Niall

St Matthias’ Church—Our Parish’s History
(Below is a piece written by the author for the Illustrated History of the
Church of Ireland book to be published in the Autumn. Each parish was
asked to contribute 300 words about the parish history.)
The Ballybrack Dolmen off Shanganagh
Road is evidence of human habitation here some
5000 years ago. On Marino Avenue West, the
little church dating from the 6th Century, Cill Iníon
Léinín (the name Killiney is derived from this)
means the Church of the daughters of Prince
Léinín. In the 16th Century, Henry VIII abolished the monasteries and Killiney
eventually came under Monkstown parish at Carrickbrennan.
In the 19th Century, Dun Laoghaire pier was built and the railway line
extended from Dublin to Bray. This
encouraged wealthy people to move to the
district and in 1828 a group of Protestants
established a temporary church in a private
house, Templeville, on Killiney Hill Road.

The Architect, Frederick Darley
designed a new church on a site, now on
Church Road, given by Sir Compton
Domville, Bart. In April 1835 it was
consecrated and described, 'It is in the
later English style, and is built of the
white granite that is found in great
abundance locally; at the east end is an embattled tower with
pinnacles.'“ The chancel and transepts were added in the 1870’s under the
supervision of Welland and Gillespie, architects. This was a time of
extensive church building in Ireland and much of the church furniture,
stained glass windows and silver plate were presented in memory of
parishioners and their families.
The original Rectory (now Woodfield) was built in 1877 and in 1887
the parish hall was built beside the church. The Hall is currently being
extended and refurbished to better suit the needs of the community. The
Hall completion is due later in the year.
Parishioners who served in World War I are listed on plaques and in
1941 the parish hall was designated as First Aid Post in the ‘Emergency’.
Three adjacent parishes, St Matthias’, Holy Trinity and Glenageary
established a jointly managed new Primary School that opened in 1973 at
Wyvern.
Links are currently established with St
Matthias’ Parish in Gahogo, Shyogwe Diocese,
Rwanda.

Sunday Club
The season of Sunday Club has ended with the End of Year Sunday Club Service and Children’s Day Barbecue following the service on 20th May.
Thank you to all who attended the Children’s Day Barbecue and to everyone who helped out, especially Rob and Jason who set up during service and cooked everything to perfection, helped by Ronan (9) who I suspect was motivated to help once he knew he would be missing prayers!
Thank you also to Peter Doyle and Jordan who took on ‘kitchen duty’ and who I’m not sure even managed to get any food…Peter—your washing up skills did not go unnoticed!
And thanks to everyone else who helped set up and clear up afterwards.
Thank you to William and Tanya for the beautiful rose bush, hopefully I shall enjoy my “carefree days” for a long time to come.
I have really enjoyed working with the children in Sunday Club and getting to know them all, I shall cherish watching them grow as much
as I do my own. Maria

The Parish of Killiney, St Matthias and Holy Trinity came together to celebrate
the Holy Communion on the feast of Pentecost—the birthday of the Church—
on 27th May at the old ruin church of Cill Iníon Léinín off Marino Ave West.
We were blessed with a glorious summer’s day and was well attended by
about 120 parishioners from the three parishes. The message of Pentecost
day was summarised by our rector, Rev William, using the 3Ps—Power,
Presence and Promise—when we embrace the Holy Spirit.

FINAL UPDATE We are pleased to record that P.C. (Practical Completion) for our project was
achieved on 18th May. Presently the limited number of items on the snag list is
being corrected.
The kitchen equipment, heating, fire alarm and electrical systems are all complete.
The moisture content of the concrete floors will be checked during the summer
months. The results will indicate the date for laying the timber and vinyl floors.
Finally, we express our thanks to all those who worked on this project—Architect,
Surveyor, Engineer, Collen’s Contracts Manager, Foreman and Tradesmen. The
ambiance on the site was always positive and helpful.
Parishioners can purchase from Tanya Olhausen keys at 5 Euro each for the Hall.
If you have a Yale key for the lock on the old main entrance to the Centre, retain
this key. This lock is presently on the door to the escape stairs and will be shortly
moved to the old porch entrance.

Where do you live?
I live in Oakdene off Ballinclea Road Killiney with Terry, my
husband, and sons Robert and David. We have lived here for 30
years now. I must mention our cat Blake who is a very important
member of the family—he is now 19 years old. I was born in
Dalkey and have always considered this area as “home” even
though I have lived in different areas in my life.
How long have you been coming to St Matthias’?
We have been going to St Matthias Church since 1992 and feel very
at home in the Church and have many good friends in the
congregation.
Where do you sit in Church?
We sit in the fourth pew from the front on the left hand side. From
here there is a beautiful view of the window behind the Altar. For
Evening Service I sit in the Transept which gives another view of
the Church.
What do you most like about St Matthias’?
I think St Matthias is a beautiful Church and an oasis of calm
beside a very busy road. It is lovely to hear the traffic pass by
outside and to feel the peace and serenity inside the Church.
There are beautiful stained glass windows and as well as the main
window it is wonderful we have the window depicting the painting
of Christ—’Behold I stand at the Door and Knock’.
About the Interviewee
B a r b a r a B a t e s loves living in Killiney as she was born in Dalkey and went to School for a few years in Glenageary. She worked in the Royal Bank, like her father had, met her husband Terry there too. Shw had to leave the Bank when she got married. In later years she worked for a GP in Dalkey and really loved that job.

……continued from previous page Under the Spotlight—Barbara Bates
If you were the Rector, what is the one thing you would like to change?
It must be very difficult being a Rector of an established Parish and
trying to bring about change. I would find it very hard to pinpoint
something I would feel like changing. It would be good though if more
people liked going to the Evening Service as it is a very meaningful time
with beautiful Services like Compline.
Do you ever feel close to God? When do you feel close to God? What do you
do to feel close to God?
Yes, I do feel very close to God. I was greatly influenced by my
Grandmother who lived out a very spiritual life and taught me about the
gift of a strong faith in God. In this busy world, it is so easy to get caught
up in other things and forget about God who is present with us all the
time and watching over all we do. I find it essential to keep his Presence
in my heart and mind as I go about my daily life.
What is your favourite Gospel story and why?
In the Bible, I love the verses in which Jesus talks about being the Good
Shepherd. We are his flock and we follow His voice and are known by
Him. It is such a comforting thought and such reassuring verses to hold
on to. There is reference to the Good Shepherd in the Old Testament and
it is wonderful how Jesus brought it into his own teaching. In the Old
Testament, I love the story of Ruth and studied it recently in Bible Study.
Name one great blessing you got this year so far.
The greatest blessing so far this year is that I am recovering from the
operation I had and the two stays I had in Blackrock Clinic. It is a great
blessing too that Terry is much better than he was this time last year. Our
health is something we can take for granted and it is not until we, or
someone we love, is ill that we realise how our good health is a gift and
not to be taken as a matter of course.
Do you pray? Do you have a favourite time to pray and when?
Yes, I do pray and I believe in the power of prayer. I would say that it is
more of a continual conversation I keep up with God during the day. I
do have longer times of Prayer especially at night. I keep the names of
the people on the Prayer Chain very much in the forefront of my mind.
When people have told me that they prayed for me I am aware of having
felt that I had been carried through a difficult situation with some
strength that was not my own. I hope and pray that others can feel
carried through their own situations by my prayer.

Hobbies & interests ~ Jamie Aherne ~
My name is Jamie Aherne, a 20 year old scout leader from 47th Ballybrack
scouts. I am a third level music student in NUI Maynooth and commute to
and from there each day. Although I have many interests, Scouting is a huge
part of my life. I have been involved in the troop for over 8 years and have
worked my way up through Thursday night scouts and am now the section
leader on a Thursday night. I personally have got so much from being
involved in scouts and
have gained some
amazing people as
friends. From my own
experience, I think scouts is
such a valuable thing for
young people to be
involved in. Being in
scouts gives you a
different perspective on
things, a greater
appreciation for the
smaller things in our lives
and for the friendships we
have. I feel very
privileged to have been involved in 47th Ballybrack scouts for so many years
and hope to continue my involvement for many years to come.
Although I live very locally in Watsons, I do not attend St Matthias’ church on
a weekly basis. I sing in a folk group in Mass in Johnstown church on a
Sunday so I don't regularly attend services in your church. I do, however, visit
your church as a representative of our scout troop a couple of times a year. I
must say, I always enjoy being involved in the services with my scouts and I
know that they feel the very same. St. Matthias is a very friendly and
welcoming environment and we from 47th Ballybrack are always made to
feel very welcome by the congregation and particularly by William.

Parade Service for Scouts, Guides and Cubs on 13th May. If you would like to find out more info, pls contact Sean Hayes 01

Dear Friends,
17,000 have now booked in to attend part or all of the Eucharistic Congress Week
from Sun 10th to Sun 17th June in the RDS. Alpha will be very involved in the Congress and
we need your help.
Don’t miss the great opportunity to hear Rev. Nicky Gumbel speaking on
“Communion in our Common Baptism” on Thursday 14th at 7.30pm in the main arena. As
you know Nicky is the Pioneer of the Alpha Course which is growing all over the world.
Altogether Alpha will be involved in three events at the Congress and will also be involved
in the exciting Host Church programme. Please see centrefold for a flyer featuring further
information.
The Host Church programme will see a “Mini Alpha” being run by Alpha
International in Whitefriar Street Church throughout the week of the Congress. There is no
cost for this Mini Alpha programme—see times on the centrefold leaflet. There will be 6
Alpha Sessions. We urgently need Volunteers to help with this Mini Alpha programme.
Could you commit to one or all of the 5 Lunch time Sessions and the 2 evening Sessions by
helping to give out flyers from 8am to 11.30am OR from 12 till 3pm from Wed to Sat? Really
value if you could drop an email to volunteer.
We are very pleased that Archbishop Fisichella, President of the Pontifical
Council for Promoting the New Evangelisation, has recommended Alpha as a practical
tool for evangelisation. Please see the clip of an interview on Salt and Light Television (in
Canada) with Archbishop Fisichella, in which he states that the “Alpha Course is a new
way of announcing the gospel”. You can watch interview at http://uk-england.alpha.org/
catholic-context/home.
It is great that Church of Ireland Archbishop of Dublin Michael Jackson,
Metropolitan Hilarion Alfeyev of the Russian Orthodox Church, and Rev Ruth Patterson of
the Presbyterian Church are joining Archbishop Martin on the first full day at the RDS, on
Monday, June 11th.
The Congress is an amazing opportunity for us all to reach out with the Good News
of Jesus. If you have never been to an Alpha why not attend Whitefriar St. during the
Congress. For Whitefriar St. to be successful we need VOLUNTEERS to come along side
us. Look forward to hearing from you,
Paddy Monaghan

C r a c k e d P o t , a r e y o u o n e ?
(Author Unknown)
An elderly Chinese woman had two large
pots, which she hung on the ends of a pole that she carried across her
neck. Every day she would make the long walk to a stream to fetch
water for her home. One of the pots was in perfect condition, and
always delivered a full portion of water. The other pot had a crack in it,
from which water leaked. As a result, by the time the woman returned
home, the cracked pot arrived only half full.
For two years the woman made her daily trek to the stream, each
time returning with only one and a half pots of water. The perfect pot
was proud of its condition and of what it could do. The cracked pot,
however, was ashamed of its imperfection and of the fact that it could
do only half of what it had been made for. One day, the cracked pot,
overwhelmed by what it perceived to be its bitter failure, spoke to the
woman at the stream. “I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in
my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house.” The
old woman smiled at the pot and replied, “Have you noticed that there
are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side? I
have always known about your flaw, so I planted flower seeds on your
side of the path. Every day, on our walk home, you water them. For
two years now I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to
decorate the table. Without you being just the way you are, there
would not be this beauty to grace our home.”
Each of us has our own crack, our own unique flaw. It’s these
cracks and flaws that make our lives together so very interesting and
rewarding, and it’s often these cracks and flaws that enable us to do
good. Accept people for what they are; look for the good in them and
the good that they do. And don’t miss the flowers on your side of the
path.
So, to all my crackpot friends, have a great day and remember to smell the flowers on your side of the path!

Here are some photos of the gravel spreading at the last weekend.
It was organised by Richard Hill and Bill Fleeton—Two trucks of gravel + ten volunteers + one rector = Job done in about an hour!
There will be a call for more volunteers during the summer to help tidy up some hedging and landscaping, so anyone who feels they missed the gravel can help with the landscaping! Rob & Pat
Big Celebration Thank you William for the wonderful surprise on Sunday 13th May 2012. It was the day when the parish discovered that I was not 100 after all! It was the day when everyone, well, nearly everyone discovered that I am only a young fellow. Very many thanks for the kind gift and greetings and all the good wishes. It is only now I am beginning to realise that there are so many youngsters of my own age in the parish!!
