Christian Christianity Church Help Smile Assist Wishing Well
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print from 1988, we see a beautiful wishing well put up by Ann Self from St Oswalds Church in Belle Vue, Middlesbrough. The well serves as more than just a decorative piece; it acts as a catalyst for community engagement and support. Passers-by are invited to answer three thought-provoking questions on how they can assist the elderly and housebound individuals in the area. Captured at the wishing well are two remarkable women, Barbara Brown and June Whitehead of St Oswalds. Their warm smiles radiate kindness and compassion, embodying the spirit of Christian values that underpin their actions. As members of this church community, they dedicate themselves to helping those in need with unwavering devotion. This snapshot encapsulates the essence of selflessness and faith-driven service that has been integral to St Oswalds Church throughout its history. It is a testament to the power of collective action when driven by genuine care for others. The image transports us back to an era where simple gestures held immense significance – where communities rallied together to uplift one another without hesitation or expectation of reward. It reminds us that even small acts of kindness can make a profound impact on someone's life. As we reflect upon this touching scene frozen in time, let it inspire us all to embrace empathy, extend our hands towards those who require assistance, and create spaces where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported – just like Ann Self's wishing well did all those years ago.
