  • Our Annual Review
    ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty. Zechariah 4:6 Annual Review September 2014 – August 2015 Celebrating what God’s been doing among us… in pictures, numbers and stories www.thesanctuarycentre.org/whereworldandworshipmeet Together, this year we prayed Every day, Monday-Friday, at 9am, 1pm and 5pm (and quite a lot in between) for 42 weeks of the year in a way that was worshipful, thankful, hopeful, united, outward-focused, varied, creative, and led by what God was laying on our hearts. Our minds were blown by digging deeper into God’s character and into scripture… … and our hearts, lives and confidence to go without fear were transformed in and through his presence. We welcomed quite a few new pray-ers into our local 40-50 strong cross-church community and grew in sharing a deep sense of community with old faithfuls and newcomers alike. And we involved many more beyond our walls in the rhythm by putting the trusty white-board up online every day! Our monthly special foci on: environmental justice (1st) and 21 for freedom – trafficking (21st) have seen us grow in understanding, weep with those who weep – and marvel at the change God is bringing. And peace was on our hearts and in our prayers again and again in daily rhythms and at our special peace vigil last November This amazing picture was painted by Barbara Macnish during our night of prayer – Awaken the Dawn – for the nation just before the elections And she wasn’t the only one to leave prayer debris behind after a significant night of prayer… And together, we’ve been part of hundreds of amazing answered prayers at personal, community, national and international levels These highlights are just the tip of the iceberg but we especially loved: • The incredible breakthrough and specific tie in of timings and events that were involved in our prayer for the new Iris Ministries centre for vulnerable and trafficked boys opening in Cambodia.

  • News from West Winds in Buckden at the Heart of the Yorkshire Dales 27 August 2009
    News from West Winds in Buckden at the heart of the Yorkshire Dales 27 August 2009 West Winds tearooms shortlisted for White Rose Award We’re very pleased, and rather proud, to announce that West Winds is a finalist in the White Rose Awards for Tourism, run by Welcome to Yorkshire, the new name for the Yorkshire Tourist Board. In fact, West Winds is the only establishment to be shortlisted for a White Rose Award from the whole of the Dales. The tearooms are one of six finalists in the Taste of Yorkshire category, which rewards use of local produce and recipes. This is one of 15 categories in this year’s awards. A total of 71 hotels, attractions, restaurants and other tourism businesses are on the list of finalists. Awards will be presented in October at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds. At West Winds we’ve tried hard to use as much produce from the Dales and wider Yorkshire area as we can. Lamb, beef, gammon, ham, venison and rabbit all come from named Yorkshire farms; cheeses are made at Hawes, Thirsk, Horton‐in‐Ribblesdale, Richmond and Teesdale (Teesdale used to be in Yorkshire!); free‐range farm eggs come from Hubberholme and Rylstone; preserves are made at Semer Water or are home‐made at West Winds; most vegetables and fruits are delivered by an organic supplier based at Richmond or grown in the garden at West Winds or picked locally; bread is specially baked for West Winds at Cracoe; ice cream is made at Jervaulx; and chocolates are made in Skipton.
