Ordinary People, Extraordinary God September at Lakes Ordinary People, Extraordinary God Lots of people who know me now might not think I am that ordinary. I seem to have everything that everyone would want. People think I have everything but they have no idea of where I came from or what I was like pre-Jesus or even pre-Berry family. I came into the family of Jesus about 4 years after I came into the Berry Family. Probably would've helped if it had been the other way round! But our extraordinary God knows it all. I lived a very ordinary life, but even as I say that, of course it wasn't. An extraordinary God was surely there way before I knew Him or was aware of Him. Although I came from an ordinary family in Bermuda, He prepared me all along for the extraordinary life I would lead knowing Him. The extraordinary life I now lead here in the Lakes with Simon, the next High Sheriff of Cumbria. That's pretty extraordinary. So yes, God is extraordinary, but His great desire is to help us all to know how extraordinary we are. To know the extraordinary lengths Jesus went to, so that we could know that we too are extraordinary in Him. You see it's not to be extraordinary, but to know we are, that is what makes all the difference to us and to the world around us. God bless, Diana Berry September at Lakes All are invited to the next F3 Lakeland Sports and BBQ at Cockshott Point at 6pm on Saturday 2nd September.

READ MORE READ MORE New Sunday Series We are looking forward to our new Sunday Series titled 'Ordinary People, Extraordinary God' looking at a group of various people that God worked through in amazing ways. We pray that this series encourages you in your own individual walk with our Lord. Home Groups Home Groups are an integral part of life at Lakes Christian Centre and we really recommend everyone taking part in one. We have different groups across the South Lakes, so if you're not already in a Home Group and would like to be, then please speak with Pastor Mike. One Another As part of Arise Women's Ministry, we will be starting a new group for the ladies of LCC this autumn. It will run for 12 weeks and will be called ‘One Another’ to reflect the Biblical teaching that we should love, pray for, care for, build up and encourage ‘one another’ as well as sharing one another’s burdens. We will plan our programme together at our first meeting, an ‘Open House’ from 11am – 3pm on Wednesday 20th September in the Coffee Lounge. Tea, coffee, cakes and biscuits will be provided but please bring a packed lunch with you if you plan to join us over lunchtime. We will always meet on Wednesdays at various times between 10.30am and 4pm and expect most events to last 2-3 hours, either in the morning, over lunch or early afternoon but we may have one or two longer sessions. Each week will be different – chatting, praying, studying, eating, reading, ‘crafting’, discussing, maybe even walking, cruising or shopping – but the aim will always be to get to know ‘one another’ better, share our daily walk with Jesus with ‘one another’ and enjoy our time with ‘one another’. Please email the Office or ask Maggie for more details. Coming Soon... Looking ahead to early October, the next F3 social will take place at 1pm on Sunday 1st October after our 11am church service. It will be a fun Walking Treasure-hunt around Windermere. Please remember to bring your own packed lunch to eat at church first in the Coffee Lounge. Unite Autumn will take place on Sunday 22nd October at 6.30pm. Come along for an evening of praise and worship, prayer for healing, and encouragement through a short message and testimony. This is a great night to invite those along who need a healing touch from God. House of Prayer Please continue to pray for Joe, Kay and Ian who were baptised in Lake Windermere last month. It was such a joyful special evening celebrating with those who have committed their hearts and lives to following Jesus. God bless them to overflowing! Congratulations! A big congratulations to Peter and Judith Bell who were recently married on the 12th August in Harrow. It was a wonderful occasion and God certainly blessed their special day. Please keep them in your prayers as they embark on life as a married couple in Manchester. Thank you for your perseverance in prayer as we move forward in our journey to buy the church building from the Bowness Methodists. Walk 4 Freedom Windermere 'The Walk for Freedom on Saturday 14th October 2017 will be a fantastic day to be a part of. We walk silently through Windermere and Bowness to give a voice to those who are trapped in some form of slavery across the UK and worldwide. Our part in it seems small but our slogan 'One step at a time, one life at a time', is at the heart of the gospel. Jesus came to die for the world and to bring freedom to the captives. Please register via the A21 website and join us as we walk again to raise awareness more determinedly, until we see this crime exposed and dealt with, and more people rescued.' Julie Ross. The Noah Initiative News Recently we have attended multiple prayer days. These are events organised by the schools to dedicate their Form 4's to God before their final exams. They pray for good results but also, wisdom and favour for the students, both in their exams and after they leave school. For some of the boys we are their parents and for others we are supporting their parents, so it is a great honour to stand with them during this time of dedication and prayer. The Noah Initiative is planning to start two new groups of boys in January. If you would like to support us in this, your donation will be matched (doubled) by another UK based foundation, then please email [email protected]. Blessings, Ell & Mety Berry Lakes Gospel Choir Concert Video Weekly Thank You!

  • An Introduction to the High Sheriff of Cumbria's Special Recognition
    An Introduction to the High Sheriff of Cumbria’s Special Recognition Awards The High Sheriff of Cumbria has launched a new Special Recognition Award to honour volunteers and individuals going above and beyond in their work, who give outstanding support to others during the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 is the biggest crisis of our generation and has brought about so many difficult challenges within our Cumbrian communities. High Sheriff of Cumbria, Julie Barton said that, “each day I hear stories of volunteers and individuals who give so much to selflessly support their fellow Cumbrians at this time. Their acts of kindness, thoughtfulness, compassion and neighbourliness are so often directed at complete strangers. I want to recognise, thank and celebrate their exceptional contributions during the current pandemic. The theme for my year in Office as High Sheriff of Cumbria is tackling social isolation and loneliness. I would particularly welcome nominations for those who are exceptional in the ways they help others to feel or be less lonely during the current crisis.” Anyone can nominate a volunteer or voluntary group or individual they feel deserves their amazing acts of kindness and generosity to be uniquely acknowledged and thanked. The nomination form is quick and straightforward to complete. Nominations will be considered by a panel. Successful nominees will receive a personal certificate and letter of thanks from the High Sheriff of Cumbria in appreciation for their outstanding contribution. The High Sheriff of Cumbria Special Recognition Awards Nomination Form NOMINATION OF VOLUNTEER/VOLUNTARY GROUP/INDIVIDUAL for their exceptional contribution to their community in Cumbria during the Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020.
