Did you know that there is a story in the Bible about a whale - or it may have been a big fish ?
I'm going to tell it to you now - The people standing behind me will help by miming parts of the story. | ||
| ( SHOW CARD 1 ) | |||
|
One day God spoke to Jonah -
"Jonah, go to the big city, Nineveh, and tell the people that I am very angry with them because of all the naughty and wicked things they are doing". | |||
| ( Mimer 1 and Mimers 3 - keep still ) | |||
| Jonah was much too scared to do this ! He was so scared that he shook with fear at the thought, so instead he ran in the opposite direction. | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - Shake with fear ) | |||
| He ran and ran and ran until he reached the sea. | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - Run on the spot )
( SHOW CARD 2 ) | |||
| He found a boat about to sail to Spain.
He ran up the gangway, bought a ticket and ran down into the darkest part of the boat and went to sleep . | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - Go to sleep ) | |||
| Surely now he would be safe from God.
But he was wrong - for God is everywhere. He's at home, at school, at work - God and His love is everywhere. You can't run away from Him. | |||
| ( SHOW CARD 3 ) | |||
| The boat set sail to Spain, and Jonah slept. | |||
| ( Mimer 1 - quiet sea; Mimer 2 - sleep ) | |||
| Then there was a big storm.
The waves got bigger and bigger, and still Jonah slept. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy sea; Mimer 2 - sleep ) | |||
| The waves got so big that they kept breaking over the boat, and still Jonah slept. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - even more stormy; Mimer 2 - sleep ) | |||
| The waves got so big that the sailors were frightened and thought the boat was about to sink. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 - frightened; Mimer 2 - sleep ) | |||
| They were so frightened that they threw everything they could overboard to lighten the boat and stop the waves from coming on board, and still Jonah slept. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1- throw stuff overboard; Mimer 2 - sleep ) | |||
| The storm got worse and the sailors started crying out to their gods - "Save us, Save us" but the storm continued and still Jonah slept. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 - kneel and pray; Mimer 2 - sleep ) | |||
| Then the Captain realised that Jonah was not with them so he went looking for him. | |||
| ( SHOW CARD 4 ) | |||
| The Captain found Jonah in the darkest corner of the hold still fast asleep.
"Jonah, Jonah, wake up !" he said, shaking him. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 - shake him; Mimer 2 - wake up ) | |||
| "The boat's about to sink in this terrible storm - come up on deck and pray to your God that we might be saved !"
They went on deck. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 and Mimer 2 -walk ) | |||
| The sailors asked Jonah, "Who are you ? Where do you come from ?" | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 and Mimer 2 talk to each other ) | |||
| Jonah said, "I'm running away from God - the God Who created heaven and earth and all living things. That's what I'm doing".
"What shall we do with you ?" they asked.
Jonah said, "The storm is my punishment for disobeying God. If you throw me into the sea it will stop". The sailors were horrified, and replied, "We can't do that ! It would be murder". "Just do it", said Jonah. "No, no", they said, "we'll try to row to safety". So the sailors rowed as fast as they could but the storm still kept raging and the sailors were too tired to row any more. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 - row; Mimer 2 - watch ) | |||
| "You must throw me overboard", Jonah said. | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 and Mimer 2 talk to each other ) | |||
| So the sailors lay themselves on the deck and asked Jonah's God to forgive them for throwing Jonah overboard. | |||
| ( Mimers 3, stormy; Mimer 1 - pray; Mimer 2 - watch )
( SHOW CARD 5 ) | |||
| They got up, picked up Jonah, and threw him into the sea. SPLASH ! | |||
| ( Mimers 3 - stormy; Mimer 1 - throw Jonah overboard; Mimers 3 - on word "splash", STOP; Mimer 2 - lie down ) | |||
| When Jonah hit the water - the storm stopped immediately;
The wind stopped roaring, the rain stopped falling and there was silence. | |||
| ( Mimer 1 - be still ) | |||
| The sailors were so amazed that they once more threw themselves down onto the deck of the boat and worshipped the God of Jonah. | |||
| ( Mimer 1 - pray ) | |||
| What about Jonah ?
He sank and sank and sank right down into the water. He was sure he was drowning. | |||
| ( SHOW CARD 6 ) | |||
| ( Mimer 1 and Mimers 3 - open hands and on word "gulp" bang them shut ) | |||
| But suddenly he saw a big mouth opening up before him and GULP.
He was in the stomach of a huge fish ! and, most amazing of all, he could breathe ! It was dark and smelly and yucky in there but he was alive. | |||
| ( Mimer 1 - sit down ) | |||
| Jonah was so pleased that he was safe that he began to sing praises to God right there in the stomach of the whale, and thanked God for rescuing him from drowning. | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - sing ) | |||
| and after three whole days
God told the fish to spit Jonah out onto a beach and he did. YUCK ! | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - move a bit ) | |||
| I think Jonah needed a good wash in the sea to get rid of the slime from the fish's stomach. Don't you ? | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - wash ) | |||
| Then Jonah heard God telling him - | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - listen ) | |||
| "Jonah ! Go to the big city Nineveh and tell the people that I am very angry with them because of all the naughty and wicked things they are doing".
and this time Jonah did as God said. | |||
| ( SHOW CARD 7 ) | |||
| He walked and walked and walked - trudge, trudge, trudge towards Nineveh. | |||
| ( Mimer 2 -walk ) | |||
| When he got to Nineveh he found it would take three days to walk through it.
So on he went trudge, trudge, trudge for a whole day. | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - walk ) | |||
| Then he stood on a street corner, so frightened that he was shaking like a jelly, and he yelled as loud as he could : | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - shake ) | |||
| "God has told me that in forty days Nineveh will be destroyed." | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - shout ) | |||
| He expected to be killed, or at the very least taken prisoner - but he couldn't believe it : the people who heard him believed him and told others WHISPER WHISPER WHISPER | |||
| ( Mimer 1 and Mimers 3 - stand up and whisper ) | |||
| and soon everyone had heard God's message and all believed - even the King !
"What shall we do ?", they said to each other, "What shall we do ?" | |||
| ( Mimer 1 and Mimers 3 - whisper, Mimer 2 - sit down ) | |||
| "We need to put ourselves right with God. How can we do that ?" | |||
| ( SHOW CARD 8 ) | |||
| The King issued an order -
"Everyone must stop eating and drinking, everyone must take off their good clothes and wear dirty old sacks, everyone must sit in ashes to show God that they are sorry for all the wicked and naughty things that they have done" . | |||
| ( Mimer 1 and Mimers 3 - change clothes and sit ) | |||
| And they did. Even the king ! | |||
| ( SHOW CARD 9 ) | |||
| God was pleased at their changed ways and he said
"I will not punish you."
And the whole city washed themselves, dressed in their best clothes and went out on the streets dancing and singing and praising God - | |||
| ( Mimer 1 and Mimers 3 - Dance and mime singing ) | |||
| - all except Jonah, who went away sulking because God had been merciful to the people of Nineveh. | |||
| ( Mimer 2 - sulk ) | |||
| Narrator | Together we pray - | ||
| All | Thank You, Lord God, that You are a loving and merciful God, always patient, always kind, and always ready to forgive us, when we say we're sorry and are willing to change our ways. | ||
| Narrator | Please stand for the action song | ||
| |||
| Narrator | Please sit. Thank you, children - you did very well. You can go back to your seats now. | ||
| Children and actors return to their places.
| |||
| ( Child 1 and child 2 and Granddad sit at front, monks with the cross stand at the back of the church on the organ side ) | |||
| Narrator | This church is named after St. Augustine of Canterbury. May is the month when we remember him in our church calendar, so we decided to tell you some of his story today. But then we thought it would be better to get the story from someone who was with him then - so here's an outside broadcast from 625 A.D. | ||
| Child 1 | Go on, Granddad - tell us a story. | ||
| Granddad | But I told you one last night. | ||
| Child 2 | Please tell us another one ! | ||
| Granddad | Which one should I tell you ? | ||
| Child 1 | How you came to Canterbury and met Grandma and settled down here. | ||
| Granddad | Oh, not that one again ! | ||
| Child 2 | Yes, yes, it's a great story. | ||
| Child 1 | Please tell us, please ! | ||
| Granddad | Well, it's simple really.
I was employed as a guide to bring Augustine and all his monks to England in 596 AD. End of story. | ||
| Child 1 | No - we want more than that. | ||
| Child 2 | Tell us about their journey. | ||
| Child 1 | And their clothes, tell us everything. | ||
| Granddad | Oh, all right. Well, it was like this. As a young man I was a bit of a wanderer and travelled all over France and England. I just couldn't seem to stay in one place for very long. | ||
| Child 1 | Like our baby - he just can't keep still. | ||
| Child 2 | Were you as young as me ? | ||
| Granddad | No, I was older than both of you put together, and you know the baby will keep still once he's older.
Well, at this particular time I was on the South Coast of France, near Arles. I was looking for work and someone told me about a group of monks from Rome, who were looking for someone to guide them to England. | ||
| Child 1 | Monks. What are they ? | ||
| Granddad | They are people who have dedicated their lives to Jesus and want to follow His way and have joined a religious order.
I went and spoke to the head guy. He was a man named Augustine and he employed me to guide him and forty other monks to England where they had been sent by Pope Gregory.
To begin with I was embarrassed being near them. | ||
| Child 2 | Why, Granddad ? | ||
| Granddad | They wore different clothes - all of them identical - like a uniform. | ||
| Child 1 | And what else ? | ||
| Granddad | Well, they walked behind a cross - | ||
| ( Monks walk behind cross from organ side to hospital side as the story continues and prop cross up against the wall. ) | |||
| Child 2 | Why did they do that ? | ||
| Granddad | It was their sacred symbol - because Jesus had been killed on a cross, and rose again, so they carried a special cross with them AND a lot of the time they sang scriptural songs as they walked. | ||
| Child 1 | Oh, that would be so embarrassing ! | ||
| Granddad | Eventually I got used to it and at each stop I got to know them all a bit better.
They sure were scared people. | ||
| Child 2 | What were they scared of ? | ||
| Granddad | Bandits, thieves and robbers - and there were a lot of them around. Also, wild animals, and there were plenty of those too. But mostly, I think they were scared of the English. | ||
| Child 1 | Who ? Us ? | ||
| Child 2 | But there's nothing wrong with us ! | ||
| Granddad | Well, they kept hearing all these stories in France about how terrible England was. People kept saying how much worse it was there than in France and they found France frightening enough. In fact one night they nearly all gave up and went back to Rome. | ||
| ( Monks act scared ) | |||
| Child 1 | Why was that, Granddad ? | ||
| Granddad | They had all worked themselves up into a state of fear - they seemed to have forgotten about Jesus and how to follow Him. They were just plain scared. After their evening meal ... | ||
| ( Monks sit down in hospital corner ) | |||
| ... they sat around Augustine and had a complaining session. | |||
| Monk 1 | We want to go back to Rome. | ||
| Monk 2 | We can't go any further. | ||
| Monk 3 | We're all too frightened. | ||
| Monk 4 | And there's still the English Channel to cross. | ||
| All Monks | We won't go any further. | ||
| Child 2 | What happened then ? | ||
| Child 1 | Did they go back ? | ||
| Granddad | Not quite. Augustine talked them into staying where they were whilst he went back to tell Pope Gregory of their fears. | ||
| Child 2 | Did that take a long time ? | ||
| Granddad | Yes, Augustine and I set off back to Rome. | ||
| ( Augustine moves back to organ side ) | |||
| I was glad to get away from all their complaining. Augustine was so sad and discouraged. Then when we got to Rome Augustine had a meeting with Pope Gregory and they prayed together. I've never seen such a transformation. Augustine was miserable when he went in to see the Pope but he came back to me radiant and excited about returning to his monks and going on to England. | |||
| Child 1 | That was brave of him. | ||
| Granddad | Yes, it was. It also had something to do with that prayer-time with the Pope. He had also been given a letter asking other kings for safe-conduct for them all through their territories.
So off we hurried to France again. While we were at Arles, in the South of France, Augustine was made a Bishop. | ||
| ( Augustine moves to centre of altar hospital corner ) | |||
| And amazing things had been happening to those monks waiting in France. | |||
| Child 2 | Like what ? | ||
| Granddad | As soon as Augustine was seen approaching, the monks came hurrying out to see him. | ||
| ( Monks move to meet Augustine in the centre behind Granddad. ) | |||
| Monk 2 | I've decided to go to England - God spoke to me about it in a dream. | ||
| Monk 1 | And I'm going too; God gave me a vision about going there. | ||
| Monk 4 | Yes, God spoke to me and I'm ready to die for Jesus in England. | ||
| Monk 3 | God's given me such a peace I'm ready to go too. | ||
| Granddad | Right through the whole forty of them, God had been at work and they were all eager to go. | ||
| Child 1 | What did you think of that, Granddad ? | ||
| Granddad | Well I found it hard to understand - but they surely were changed, and off we hurried to England. | ||
| ( Monks move with the cross to front hospital side, and prop cross against the wall again. ) | |||
| We arrived on the Isle of Thanet in Kent and rested there. Augustine sent a message to King Ethelbert. | |||
| Child 2 | Was that our King ? | ||
| Granddad | Yes, our King Ethelbert, and he himself came to the Island and welcomed them all. He offered them an old church building and land to build a monastery in Canterbury. They all went there and cleaned up the old church and built a monastery too. | ||
| ( Monks build ) | |||
| But the monks did so much more than that. They went throughout all the neighbouring land and told people about Jesus.
The people listened and many of them became Christians. After a few years Augustine was sending back to Pope Gregory for more people to help convert England and eventually Augustine was able to make twelve other people Bishops too. | |||
| Child 1 | Why did you stay here, Granddad ? | ||
| Granddad | Well, I met your Grandmother and no longer wanted to wander everywhere. | ||
| Child 2 | Is that when you became a Christian ? | ||
| Granddad | Yes, I saw so many changes in those monks that I wanted to be a Christian too. | ||
| Child 1 | Did every thing work out well for Augustine ? | ||
| Granddad | Some things went amazingly well.
But other things didn't.
The Pope had hoped that Augustine would be able to combine the church in southeast England with the Celtic church in Wales but that just never happened. Now you must both go to bed. | ||
| Children | Oh, must we ? | ||
| Granddad | Yes, off you go ! | ||
| ( Children run to back, with Granddad following more slowly, monks return to their places. ) | |||
| Narrator | Thanks to our correspondent in 625 for that outside broadcast. And that's why Canterbury still holds a very important role in the Anglican Church today. Now we return to our normal 2004 programme. | ||
| Narrator | Please stand for the hymn | ||
| |||
| ( At the end of this hymn Jonah and Augustine come to the front down different side aisles. ) | |||
| Narrator | Please sit for | ||
Joe and Gus | |||
| Narrator : | Now for our second outside broadcast we cross to our camera crew in heaven. | ||
| ( Heaven. Jonah and Augustine enter from opposite sides, meet in the middle. Jonah always speaks in a chatty way, Augustine is prim and correct. Don't overdo it ! ) | |||
| Jonah | Gidday ! | ||
| Augustine | Good morning ! It is a particularly good day, isn't it ? Have you been here long, Mr. ... er ... ? | ||
| Jonah | Ah, they usually call me Joe. Me real name's Jonah, but that's .... | ||
| Augustine ( excited ) | JONAH ? Well, that's a surprise ! We know about your rugby even up here. I wasn't expecting to see you here yet, though. And you look a lot smaller than your pictures on television and in the newspapers. | ||
| Jonah ( waves hands dismissively ) | Nah, not that Jonah. I been here about two and a half thousand years. How about you ? | ||
| Augustine | Oh, that makes me quite a newcomer ! I've been here only about half as long as that. And - er - call me Gus. It's short for Augustine, but that's a bit formal for friends, so I usually stick to Gus. | ||
| Jonah | Hey, you're not Saint Augustine, are you ? | ||
| Augustine ( embarrassed ) | Well, actually, yes, but ..... | ||
| Jonah ( excited ) | That's great ! I've wanted to meet you for ages ! I've been a fan of yours ever since you saw through all that pagan stuff in Africa and became a Christian, .... | ||
| Augustine ( also waves hands dismissively ) | No, no ! Not that Augustine ! He was Augustine of Hippo. I was much later than that - I'm Augustine of Canterbury. | ||
| Jonah | Aw - yer a Kiwi, then ? No wonder you got mixed up with the Jonahs ! | ||
| Augustine ( now deeply embarrassed ) | No, Joe - it's not that Canterbury either. My Canterbury's in England. | ||
| Jonah | Aw. You mean there are two of them as well ? Why don't different things have different names ? Well, never mind. It was just that I'd hoped to meet the other Augustine some day, because of the hippo - I've had something to do with big animals meself, and I thought we might have an interesting chat, like. | ||
| Augustine | Look, I think you've got it wrong there; it isn't the hippo - just Hippo. The other Augustine's Hippo wasn't an animal - it was a place in North Africa. | ||
| Jonah | Really ? There's another illusion gone. But it was a long shot anyway - I've had more to do with whales. | ||
| Augustine ( reacts strongly ) | Wales ? I had quite a bit of trouble with people from Wales. | ||
| Jonah | You mean there are more of them too ? I thought I was the only one. | ||
| Augustine ( puzzled ) | But Wales is full of people. Lots of them are Celtic Christians, and they do things differently. And, come to think of it, they're very fond of rugby. Are you sure you're not that Jonah ? | ||
| Jonah ( somewhat worked up ) | Look ! If this weren't heaven, I'd get cross. First of all, I am not that Jonah; I'm this one. Furthermore, I bet I've more experience of being in whales than you have, and I know there was only me there, and I'd have noticed a rugby team. And, finally, yer grammar's going off - it should be "Whales are", not "Whales is". | ||
| Augustine | What ? Wait a minute. If you've been here 2500 years, are you the other Jonah ? - the one with the whale ? | ||
| Jonah | Yeah, that's me. I said I had experience of whales. I don't flash it about, though, 'cause I'm not exactly proud of all of it. But what's that got to do with grammar ? | ||
| Augustine | Well, it's a bit like Hippo. A whale is an animal, but Wales is a place, next to England. | ||
| Jonah | This must be my day for learning things ! But in any case go easy on the whale stuff. | ||
| Augustine ( surprised ) | Why ? It's a good story. And what's wrong with the whale ? | ||
| Jonah | It's a good story of some idiot always trying to get out of the job he was supposed to be doing, and having to be knocked back by God time and time again. And I don't know whether it was a whale or not. | ||
| Augustine ( astonished ) | You mean there's some doubt ? Why don't you know ? | ||
| Jonah | Well, Gus, just think. When I was thrown into the sea, I didn't waste time studying the local wild life, and when I came out I'd been inside it for three days, and didn't feel like doing anything at all. And it's hard to tell from inside a large sea creature what's on the outside. | ||
| Augustine ( impressed by the argument ) | I'd never thought of it quite like that. But you're not the only one who tried to get out of doing his job. You didn't want to go to Nineveh - I didn't want to go to England. There were little tribes all over the country always fighting each other, and a lot of them were pagans. They were quite barbarous, and didn't speak any civilised language. | ||
| Jonah | Doesn't sound that much different from now, but if you say so .... | ||
| Augustine | It was certainly enough to put us off. We tried to get out of it, but we ended up turned round going back to England. | ||
| Jonah | Now, that sounds very familiar. I ended up going to Nineveh. Even trying to escape by ship didn't help me, thanks to that dratted whale. Or whatever it was. | ||
| Augustine | We had a sea voyage too, but once we got to England, there was nothing for it but to go ahead and do what we knew we had to do. So we did that - and all the dreadful things we'd imagined just didn't happen ! | ||
| Jonah | Same here again. As I walked up that road to Nineveh I thought it'd be the last time I walked anywhere. But then I gave 'em me speech, and they all agreed ! | ||
| Augustine | Yes - that's the sort of thing that happened to us ! We were extraordinarily relieved. I bet you were too ! | ||
| Jonah | Well, yes. But I was pretty cross about it at the time. I'd done me job, told 'em all that they'd been wicked so God was going to destroy the lot of them - but they all caved in, said they'd do better, and God let 'em off. Made me look a right Charlie. | ||
| Augustine | Oh, come on ! Because of you, a catastrophe turned into a triumph ! - and you're complaining about a bit of embarrassment ? We had to go on working for years, and it wasn't always rewarding. I suppose that's how it is for most people. Looking back now, it was all worthwhile, but we didn't always think so at the time. | ||
| Jonah ( thoughtful ) | I suppose that's true. If we hadn't done what we did, a lot of people would have been a lot worse off. ( Likes the idea. ) Hey, we're pretty good fellas, aren't we ? | ||
| Augustine | No, Joe, we're not. We're just the same pig-headed idiots as we were ten minutes ago - but we have a pretty good God Who's willing to keep pushing us in the right direction however unwilling we are. And if we'd given up, then perhaps God would have found someone else to do it anyway. Like you said, we haven't a lot to be proud of. | ||
| Jonah | That's true enough. But I'm glad God kept on at me until I did the right things. It's nice to know that I did do something right at last. | ||
| Augustine | God's like that. He'll always give us another chance. But wouldn't it be better if we took the first chance ? | ||
| Jonah | Maybe so - but nobody's perfect, and we all miss chances because we're not looking, or because we're too fond of our own comfort, or because we don't even realise the chance is there .... | ||
| Augustine | ... or maybe because we don't expect God to be asking us to do things for Him ? So what we should do is keep looking out for the next chance to do something for God ! | ||
| Jonah | Sounds good. Look, thanks for the chat ! You've sorted quite a few things out for me ! | ||
| ( They start to walk out together down the centre aisle. ) | |||
| Augustine | Well, Joe, thanks to you as well - I've learnt something too. I wish I'd worked that out while I was alive ! | ||
| Jonah | Yes - it's a pity we can't tell all those people on earth. If only they could overhear us ..... | ||
| Narrator | Well, that's what I call reality television. But now we must return to our studio broadcast. | ||
