Bassenfell '06 - "Power For Living"

This was our second church weekend at Bassenfell Manor and what a great weekend it was. an improvement even on last years event, though that may seem hard to believe!

This year we were joined by John Flanner from Solihull and Phil Jenkins from Bath, who were our main speakers. They brought us teaching and exhortation on the theme "Power For Living", which was basically about the lordship of Christ and our submission to him as Christians. To summarize what they said; knowing our position in Christ is vital to us and will determine how we live, what choices we make, what decisions we take and what examples of living we set for others.

Thanks To Darren & Sue our new Youth Pastors for their great work with our youth over the weekend, by all accounts everybody had a lot of fun and enjoyed learning about discipleship.

Jennie Novotony (Tina Turner) lead the children's sessions based on a super hero theme. along with a lot of cutting, gluing, sticking and painting the children learnt why Jesus Christ is a real super hero! Thanks Jen.

On Saturday afternoon, people enjoyed various activities around the Lake District one of which was a lovely walk going from Ashness Bridge up to High Seat, on the Saturday night we had a superb evening of fun filled family entertainment, lead by our very own master of ceremonies himself, the one and only Mr John Pearson. The night ended in a grand finale of fireworks. Thanks to everybody who took part on the night.

Special thankyou to Marie P and Jenny G For Helping to organise the weekend and thanks everyone for "muckin' in" and making the weekend so memorable, now lets live out what we have learnt from the weekend and build on it!
