Thank You Lord!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;If you are unaware of what I am talking about, then I am sorry to say that you have missed out, but worry not, because as I said before, this year is no where near over yet. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Allow me to attempt to successfully describe to you in a few sentences, the Wessex Christian Centre's 2011 so far.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Well, it all kicked off on January 9&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, which was the night that our Pastor of 25 years, Brian Downward, handed over the baton of&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;senior leadership to his son Julian. This was a fantastic night, with praise &amp;amp; worship, ministry from Geoff Malan, (Pastor Julian's best friend who flew in all the way from India, just for the day!!) and fellowship with so many friends of the Wessex Christian Centre. We are so proud of both our Pastors and love them immensely for all that they do for us and the kingdom of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;It was not long after this that the church received some wonderful news. Pastor Tim and Mandy Leech and Geoff and Karen Malan, along with their families were to move to Bournemouth and join the leadership team here at the Wessex Christian Centre. This is something were are all very excited about. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;This year, we were very happy to be able to send some of our team to Spring Harvest. This was to run an exhibition stand, handing out copies of our 'Keez &amp;amp; Jooz Kidz Praize' CD's as well as stickers, posters, badges, zippers and pens, to as many children as possible, for FREE. The team worked incredibly hard and long hours, but were so blessed themselves to be able to bless over 500 kids with the CD's and other gifts at no charge. It was such a blessing to be able to bless!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Late 2010, the vision of 'NoTicketNeeded' was birthed in the heart of Pastor Julian and in March 2011, he presented 'NTN' to the church. 'NoTicketNeeded' is a series of FREE Christian events happening throughout the year here at the Wessex Christian Centre. As we are 6 months into the year, we have already hosted 5 events and everyone of them has been sensational and anointed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;First up, we had the vibrant, the energetic, the World's No.1 Christian Reggae band - CHRISTAFARI&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a name="table_01"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;!! The band rocked us for 45 minutes and stormed their way into the intermission with a track that was so full of energy, truth be told, we didn't want to take a break. But it was worth it to have the thrill of welcoming them back on the stage with another hour of music, ministry and communion. Yes! We broke bread, all 500 of us! Well, it was GOOD Friday after all. People received Jesus for the first time, and others gave their lives back to the Lord where perhaps they had slipped away. We thank God for His visitation of grace and mercy that evening.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;The Second event of the year was a real surprise one. It all started back in October 2010, NTN was attempting to book PETRA for a 2011 gig but it all fell through. However, 5 months later, &lt;?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;PETRA&lt;/st1:city&gt; contacted the NTN office with a very unexpected request -'with only 5 days to pull it off, would you consider hosting &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;PETRA&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; at NTN after all? A London gig has fallen through'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;We accepted the challenge and got straight to work. 5 crippling days later... PETRA arrived in Bournemouth for a simply indescribable event. We were thrilled to be able to welcome and serve the band, all 5 of the original late 70’s and early 80’s members! PETRA had every age and corner of the auditorium covered and they continually kept us engaged and inspired. There was an atmosphere of joy in the house as we were led into true worship by the band with songs that lifted up the Name of the Lord. This was a one of kind night with a one of a kind band. PETRA Rocked!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;5 days after PETRA were with us, we had the great honour of serving one of the world’s greatest Worship leader /songwriters, Mr Graham Kendrick and his band. The place was packed as people of all ages came, not to be entertained and ‘performed to’ but to join with Graham Kendrick as he simply led us all into the presence of God with praise and worship. It was an incredible evening, on and on, people were lifting their voices to the Lord in worship. As was Graham's heart, it was not a show, but a corporate, collective chorus of praise. Graham Kendrick and his band are such talented but humble men and we count it such a privilege to have been able to meet them, to serve them and to be ministered to by them. It was an electric, inspiring and for many, life-changing night. God be praised!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Now, just two sleeps after that, we had another treat in store and that came in the form of Malcolm Wild and the Florida Praise band. Originally of 'Malcolm &amp;amp; Alwyn' a touring duo in the 70's, Malcolm brought his worship team over from Merritt Island, Florida, where he pastors a Calvary Chapel assembly. We were so blessed to have them lead worship and preach the Word of the Lord for the whole Day. This team, found such joy in praising God, and their excitement and passion to be in God's house could be see on their faces throughout the day. If we were to sum up what the Florida Praise band was about, it was ‘opening the windows’! Fresh air through Praise and Worship and the Word of God flooded the place on that day and we were uplifted, inspired to worship and brought closer to God. A fantastic day in the house of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;This past Sunday, we just finished 'A Time of Refreshing 2011'. 8 days of ministry, worship and fellowship. What a feast we had. It was truly a week of hearing from the Lord. We thank God for the men of God who sought the Lord and so faithfully preached the Word to us. We also thank God for meeting with us and allowing us to spend time in His presence. It is our prayer that we will continue to be changed daily into what the Lord desires us to be. He is a good God!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Looking back on these past six months has been incredibly uplifting, yet humbling to realise just how much the Lord has blessed us. The amazing thing is, we are only half way through this year. Still to come, we have PHATFISH, BOSH, Kings Chamber Orchestra and Saltmine Theatre Company events. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;I have no doubt that we, at the Wessex Christian Centre, can say with King David, that our cup surely does overflow.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3616563093612350506-8399375051216342119?l=wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/feeds/8399375051216342119/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/2011-at-wessex-christian-centre-story.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/8399375051216342119'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/8399375051216342119'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/2011-at-wessex-christian-centre-story.html' title='2011 at the Wessex Christian Centre - the story so far.'/><author><name>wccbournemouth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01902788119966024699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SdtGWCubMeI/AAAAAAAAAA4/HCpFH9EmPYc/S220/Buliding+1.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3616563093612350506.post-4170115375684012458</id><published>2011-01-04T16:12:00.006Z</published><updated>2011-01-04T16:35:57.826Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;It is hard to believe that it is &lt;strong&gt;25&lt;/strong&gt; years since the commencement of the Wessex Christian Centre.

It was the 3rd annual conference we've hosted here and this one was a 'rippa' as the Auzzies put it. Did we walk away unscathed? I hope not! in fact, anyone who came that left unaffected would raise a suspicious eyebrow from me I can tell you! The ministry was direct...it was uplifting, encouraging, confrontational, mellow, full-on, quiet, loud, short, long, blue and red! We had fantastic fellowship and great time of worship. The laughs were worth the 12 month wait and everybody that attended made a difference!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you would like to come next time, keep an eye on the website (&lt;a href="http://www.wccbournemouth.co.uk/"&gt;http://www.wccbournemouth.co.uk/&lt;/a&gt;) and the info will be up by the Autumn this year God willing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In regards to St.Peter's Hall, we are still trying to and believing God that we can buy it. It has been under offer now for 2 months. It should have completed a month ago but as yet we have heard nothing and the 'under offer' sign has again disappeared. And so we wait. It's exactly what The Lord warned us would happen so there's no surprise.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/TA5VXWFE5iI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/B_0z_NIzQG4/s1600/family+low+res.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 189px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 104px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480411656108697122" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/TA5VXWFE5iI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/B_0z_NIzQG4/s320/family+low+res.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I would like to ask yo to pray for The Malan Family. They are missionaries in India and are having a greatly difficult time right now...amid great blessing actually, which may seem a contradiction but actually isn't. Take a look at their site &lt;a href="http://www.mission-india.org/"&gt;http://www.mission-india.org/&lt;/a&gt; and please, continue to or determine to pray for them every day. God bless you for your support.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3616563093612350506-5190417002407487667?l=wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/feeds/5190417002407487667/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/wow-what-week.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/5190417002407487667'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/5190417002407487667'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/wow-what-week.html' title='WOW! what a week!'/><author><name>wccbournemouth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01902788119966024699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SdtGWCubMeI/AAAAAAAAAA4/HCpFH9EmPYc/S220/Buliding+1.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/TA5VXWFE5iI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/B_0z_NIzQG4/s72-c/family+low+res.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3616563093612350506.post-3392075837362935922</id><published>2010-03-29T14:54:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-29T15:52:39.603+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Latest W.C.C Blog</title><content type='html'>Yeah, I know, I know, it's been too long since the last WCC blog! My fault! I acknowledge it fully! :-)&lt;br /&gt;Well then, coming up at WCC is an performance by our Children's group that will not be forgotten in a hurry. It's only 8 minutes long but we think it will have people on the edge of their seats! not to mention, rejoicing in our God and the victory He's won.&lt;br /&gt;In May, we will be hosting the third annual 'Time of refreshing' ministry week right here at WCC. Book in now (for free). It takes place between Sun May 30th and Sun June 6th. Various speakers from around the country will minister the Word of God and we will have loads of fellowship and Worship at the same time. Free to attend, free to register...or just turn up on the door. You can see more info by going here - &lt;a href="http://www.wccbournemouth.co.uk/"&gt;http://www.wccbournemouth.co.uk/&lt;/a&gt; Here's a video taster from TOR2009.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/DBNBliQgIv8&amp;amp;hl=en_GB&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/DBNBliQgIv8&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, in other news, St.Peter's hall has finally sold to a developer in Bournemouth. He wants to turn it into a small shopping centre, flats and a restaurant. Now does this mean that our vision is dead or must now be thrown out...no! We believe that God told us that this would happen and that we must stand fast in faith and see what God would do. The planning permission hasn't gone through yet, so it may not...the completion of the sale may fall aprt...who knows...but right now, we go back to the waiting game. We knew it wouldn't come quickly or easily, but that God would fight the battle. We have no money...we have no businessmen or millionaires in the Church...just faith in God that we can make a difference with Him in this town.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Julian and Sarah have just given birth to their third Child...a boy called Joseph which we give the praise for and in just 5 weeks, Abi and Richard Jones will be welcoming their lastest addition to their family and the Church. On top of that, Ryan and Jontey Wylie have just announced that they are expecting their first child. As Pastor Brian puts it "we will grow this church one way or the other"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IN August this year, we will have our very first full length Biblez 'N' Bikez camp which will take place at The IBTI bible college in Burgess Hill, sussex. We can't wait to see what God will do in the lives of our precious children. It's very hard in this financial climate to come up with the cash for a camp like this and some of our kids are even paying for themselves to go! amazing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly, we're very excited to announce the release of a brand new album entitled :- 'Keez&amp;amp;Jooz kid'z praize adventure no.1'. It's a kid'z album of course but for all the family! It's taken 12 months to produce and record and is an 'experince' not just some CD of some kind. It has 10 songs on the CD but 22 tracks, that's because we visit a lot of different places, Keez, Joo and the Biblez'N'Bikez gang. You can pre order yours now by contacting the Church through the website. It costs £7.00 for the regular CD or £10 for a backing track split track version for you to use with your kid's group to perform live or in Sunday school. We also  have a website which is under construction just now where you can meet the gang, join the gang...get free stuff, buy a t-shirt etc. can't wait to see who joins up and who thinks they can 'out-perform' Keez&amp;amp;Jooz!.  The Disc is at the factory right now being made...more info soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless for now,&lt;br /&gt;Julian&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3616563093612350506-3392075837362935922?l=wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3392075837362935922/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/latest-wcc-blog.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/3392075837362935922'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/3392075837362935922'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/latest-wcc-blog.html' title='Latest W.C.C Blog'/><author><name>wccbournemouth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01902788119966024699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SdtGWCubMeI/AAAAAAAAAA4/HCpFH9EmPYc/S220/Buliding+1.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3616563093612350506.post-9083809138107772038</id><published>2009-12-22T13:43:00.012Z</published><updated>2009-12-22T15:25:05.739Z</updated><title type='text'>Christmas @ wccbournemouth</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SzDQ51c0NVI/AAAAAAAAAF4/mjlJz5ew4IA/s1600-h/BeckyBlog.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 260px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418060043745768786" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SzDQ51c0NVI/AAAAAAAAAF4/mjlJz5ew4IA/s320/BeckyBlog.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well it is Christmas time right now and here at the Wessex Christian Centre we are having a great time celebrating this season. We began our festivities by sharing together our annual Christmas meal. It was held at the Premier Inn hotel and was a time of great fellowship and good food, as well as a wonderful message from Ian Coffey, Faculty member of Moorlands Bible College.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We continued the celebrations on Sunday evening by holding our Carol Service, during which our W.C.C kids performed their Christmas Production. A presentation that taught us who Christmas is all about, Jesus. It including songs which were written and recorded by Julian Downward and Keeley Morgan, which coincided with the release of our NEW Kids Praise CD, "Keez &amp;amp; Jooz Kidz praize adventure no.1". You can purchase one online at wccbournemouth.co.uk for just £5.00. (or 3 for £10) This coming Sunday, December 27th, we will be having a repeat of the production as well as singing more carols. We would love for you to join us and invite your friends and family, starting at 6:30pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the last few weeks, our Pastor and his family all underwent surgery. Jose had a Parathryroid Gland removed, whilst Pastor Brian, Julian and Cerian each had investigative procedures. We thank God that all were giving clean bills of health and we praise Him for Jose’s quick recovery. We also say thanks to all you who prayed for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This New Year we are looking forward to A Time of Refreshing 2010, which will be held here from May 31st - June 6th. We are very excited and trust it will be a great week.

If not, Abi will have to have metal bars fused to her spine to straighten her up. Without this operation, further complications will ensue. At the same time, Geoff and the family have had terrible unforeseen visa issues which, thank God, have been resolved! We give God all praise for this family and the work they are doing and we are so proud to have them as members of WCC. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;"&gt;You can read more on these and other news subjects on the mission India website at: &lt;a href="http://www.mission-india.org/"&gt;http://www.mission-india.org/&lt;/a&gt; hit 'latest news' tab.

They have leased an ex-nightclub and have renovated it to make it a great venue to meet as a Church. As we arrived, Pastor Renato asked Pastor Brian &amp;amp; Jose to be the first to cross the threshold. Climbing the stairs we entered at the top to find a fantastic venue just waiting to be filled with the praises of God, and it was! Since leaving WCC on Hinton road, the whole church was led by a procession of dancers and singers!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFXKKXpQsI/AAAAAAAAADA/IW22HHC0AcE/s1600-h/DSC_1454.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332639265877213890" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 112px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFXKKXpQsI/AAAAAAAAADA/IW22HHC0AcE/s200/DSC_1454.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFW-ghJEZI/AAAAAAAAACw/D6Y9Y78D9s8/s1600-h/DSC_1415.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332639065664197010" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 174px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFW-ghJEZI/AAAAAAAAACw/D6Y9Y78D9s8/s200/DSC_1415.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pastor Renato then said some very complimentary words about Pastor Brian and asked him to pray a prayer of dedication over the building and the church body.

He/she asked, "why do you need to buy St.Peter's hall when you have such a big venue at the top of the road?"..Well the answer to that is both simple and complex..but in a nut shell - first of all, one important word:- 'VISION'. This church has been claiming back that building for the kingdom of God for some 15 years and we have been praying against some of the things that have gone on there over the years. Not one night club has succeeded there in more than 20 years! (even during the boom period!). We believe it's God's land and God's building. It was consecrated to Him when it was built. It still IS His!. But that aside, when it comes to vision, it comes down to this:- The building we have at the top of the hill is simply not big enough and will not be able to accommodate the plans we have for St.Peter's hall. The 2 venues are completely different. St.Peter's could host 3 children's and young people's groups simultaneously, Run a coffee shop, old folks group and kids play group in the day, run a Christian 'Night club' (for want of a better term) every friday and saturday with facility for 30- 400 kids. It has twice the office space of wcc and can function as all of the above without hardly changing a thing around between events....something WCC can never do. WCC is primarily a Church, with, in one case, fixed seating and the venue we have downstairs will only host around 150 people at its max! On top of all of this, we want to turn it into an evangelistic centre and for that, a change of venue and its position is crucial. To sum up on that score, there is literally 50 times the pedestrian traffic at the bottom of Hinton road as at the top (even in the middle of the day...never mind friday night) and approx 15 times the vehicle traffic too. This says a great deal. Finally, in answer to the question posed...I say this....why? because God told us to!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now then, the main reason for writing again about St.Peter's today was to inform you if you didn't already know, that we have now made a formal offer on St.Peter's Hall on Friday the 24th of last month. We will see where it takes us but we truly believe after seeking God about this for a month, that this is His plan. Where's the money coming from? well certainly not the lottery, but rather, we are waiting for a miracle, yes! But we are also giving ourselves! This Sunday, £8,000 came in for the VISION and we will wait for the rest as God challenges and provides.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Thank you for your continued prayer and support.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Julian and Team WCC. &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFuAhi3VXI/AAAAAAAAAEA/KPhbl93oAw8/s1600-h/Ju+with+tea.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332664389067036018" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 87px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 126px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFuAhi3VXI/AAAAAAAAAEA/KPhbl93oAw8/s200/Ju+with+tea.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3616563093612350506-838455857465947328?l=wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/feeds/838455857465947328/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/its-been-exciting-2-weeks.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/838455857465947328'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3616563093612350506/posts/default/838455857465947328'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wccbournemouthblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/its-been-exciting-2-weeks.html' title='It&apos;s been an exciting 2 weeks!'/><author><name>wccbournemouth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01902788119966024699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SdtGWCubMeI/AAAAAAAAAA4/HCpFH9EmPYc/S220/Buliding+1.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/SgFusnpgF1I/AAAAAAAAAEI/oiyZUBwv5UU/s72-c/DSC_1316.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3616563093612350506.post-4541040451730427528</id><published>2009-04-22T12:14:00.011+01:00</published><updated>2009-04-22T13:19:42.073+01:00</updated><title type='text'>The Giorgiani's depart</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/Se8GJjZTSJI/AAAAAAAAACA/pNYllm13bTM/s1600-h/cez+m+blog+1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327483645392537746" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ie1NMd9-eIQ/Se8GJjZTSJI/AAAAAAAAACA/pNYllm13bTM/s320/cez+m+blog+1.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sadly, &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;this Sunday evening was the last for the Giorgiani family!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Cerian is one of the founding members of WCC being part of the Downward family and she has headed up the children's ministry for years as well as setting up and leading 'mum's unite'.

It's for sale!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;It's for sale for offers in excess of £750,000&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;I'm so excited about this place I can't put it into words!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;My whole life I have witnessed the most incredible acts of faith ...and they were undertaken by my own parents. This, however, is different, because this time that faith has to be my own. Yes of course, it has to be the faith of the Wessex Christian Centre people too, that's essential! but there always has to be one person who spear heads the venture...receives the initial vision and is given a 'gift of faith' by God to carry out His word.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;On Tuesday night, we had our 4th evangelism course module. Myself and the band sang 'Here I am send me' a song by the mighty and prophetic Delirious? It got deeper into my spirit than ever before...but following that, we watched a film lasting around 25 minutes from Reinhard Bonnke...which was all about faith. No-one knew what had been surging through my heart and mind for the previous few days except my parents &amp;amp; wife - Sarah...yet the film we saw that night, was all about faith!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;I began to pray..I found myself saying over and over and over..."You can do it Lord, you can do it Lord, You can do it Lord..."As I was praying, I felt the anointing of God coming upon me, over me and certainly THROUGH me. How do I know it was that? well, if I could describe it, I would be able to tell you how I know....I just know, because it's not the first time. By the time Ian was on his feet and speaking, I was being pulled apart by the gentle Spirit of God and literally streaming tears for the entire message! when we got back up to worship at the end of the Word, I could hardly hold a note...God was on me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;I did something else after that meeting that I will not divulge just now, but safe to say, I was calling on God for a word. A 'Yes', a 'NO', a 'WAIT'.... whatever the word, I would act. guess what He said:- absolutely nothing! Nothing at all! He remained silent!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Praise God! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;what?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Praise God?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;YES! Praise God&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#3366ff;"&gt;why?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Because He didn't say NO yet, that's why!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;It is so important for me to express something to you:- I have tested myself and my motives for wanting this place for weeks! I have asked myself over and over and over -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;"why do you want it?...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;why Downward?" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;"what's your motive boy?? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;tell me...and be honest!" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;well I can say with true honesty, I want it for the Kingdom of Light! and the Light of life!

The land of Bournemouth!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Yes there are giants, yes, there are walls...but have you seen the grapes? they take 2 men to lift them!

I'm not gonna get to 65 and say, "Oh man, why didn't I have a go at this or that for God...I have too many regrets.." Let me tell you - the grave yard is full of dreams never lived (Yes Ian?)....By God's grace, I'm not gonna be that! "He shall not, be forgotten!" God's name will be raised in Bournemouth beyond anything seen before...."I've been down the road where they angels have been....where the kids are seeing things that we have never seen!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Come Lord Jesus, take Your place...You've earned it.
