�Mission Real Lives�- Real People, Real World, Real Hope,
organised by Lisburn Baptist Church and Emmanuel Baptist
Church will be held in the Island Civic Centre from Sunday
26th of March to Sunday 2nd of April 2006.
The theme of the Mission is �let me tell
you my story� and the speaker each night is Roger Carswell, a
well-known evangelist from Leeds. In addition to telling you
his story, Roger will be conducting a Michael Parkinson style
interview each evening with a variety of people about their life
experiences and the difference their Christian faith has made to
their lives. Others taking part will be John Mosey and his wife
Louise, who lost their daughter in the Pan Am Flight 103 over
Locherbie; and Mike Mellor and Alison Kavanagh who both overcame
their struggle with addiction; and a number of high profile
sports personalities like Michael Ferguson.
Over the next number of weeks an invitation
to this event will be dropped through the door of every home in
the Lisburn area, giving details of the full programme and those
taking part. There will also be a large banner in Bow Street
advertising the �let me tell you my story� theme of the Mission.
During the week of �Mission Real Lives� the
Island Centre will be open during the day for a variety of
related activities including an International Friendship Day on
Wednesday for those who have come to live in Lisburn from other
countries and on Thursday a Leeds University professor who
believes in creation, will be available to answer your
questions. On the week before the Mission, the Ulster Star will
publish a large advertisement giving full details of all the
events. There is an exciting programme planned and what is even
more exciting is that probably for the first time admission is
free to an event in the Island Civic Centre. So, watch this
space.
