Another Fantastic ‘Country’ Night Out
At ‘Lion Country’ Country Music Nightspot!
With the culmination of the CAFÉ appeal
recently being achieved by the presentation
of the new ambulance on 3 May, the
organisers of Lion Country would like to
publicly thank all their supporters during
the last five years for helping them to
help make this tremendous gift possible!
Following some discussion, the organisers
have decided to nominate Camposol’s
FAST project to take over as the prime
beneficiary of any net profits gained by the
Lion Country.
Getting back
to the ‘nitty
gritty’,
following
April’s fantastic
night
of Country
Music entertainment
provided
by Costa
Blanca’s ‘X
Factor’ finalist,
Cherry
K, the programme for Friday 17 May heralded
the return of yet another favourite
‘Country Style’ entertainer, the fabulous
Marty Ross. Always guaranteeing us a
great night’s entertainment, whether he
sings solo or as one half of the fabulous
‘Beagles’ duo, when he puts on his ‘country’
hat, Marty really becomes a force to
be reckoned with. Once again he didn’t
disappoint on the night and a tremendous
time was enjoyed by all. You’ll curse if you
missed it!
Staying with the subject of brilliant entertainment,
the scheduled entertainment for
Friday 21 June features the return of the
magnificent and multi-talented, four-piece
CM Band, Grumpy Old Men at La Molata
Club Socio, nr Los Munoces on Friday 21
June. Doors open at 8pm. Entry just €5
per person
at the door.
With the inimitable
Phil
Brady lined
up to appear
on Friday
5 July,
(that’s the
FIRST Friday
folks), Lion
Country will
be closing its doors for the summer break.
They re-open on Friday 20 September
with another favourite, the fantastic Red
Strokes!
With its new sound and lighting system
in place, Lion Country is by far the biggest
and best Country Music Venue in the
Murcia Region. Boasting a large dance
floor, the venue is also a licensed premises,
with drinks at Spanish prices and
their hosts, Antonio & Cheryl, maintain a
superb kitchen. Advance bookings for food
are strongly recommended to avoid being

the evening, should you want to ‘top up’
your line dancing or western regalia or just

SAINT PAUL, APOSTLE
Paul was
born about
the same
time as
Jesus, or
slightly later.
He was
converted
to faith in
Jesus Christ
about A.D.
33. Paul referred
himself
as being
“of stock of
Israel, of the
tribe of Benjamin,
a Hebrew
of the
Hebrews, as
touching the law, a Pharisee”.
Before becoming a follower of Jesus, Paul
zealously persecuted the newly-forming
Christian Church, trying to destroy it. He
held the coats of those who stoned Stephen,
the first Christian martyr, to death.
While travelling on the road from Jerusalem
to Damascus on a mission to “bring
these people as prisoners to Jerusalem to
be punished”, the resurrected Jesus appeared
to him in a great light. He was
struck blind, but after three days his sight
was restored and he was converted.
Paul’s conversion dramatically changed
the course of his life. He began to preach
that Jesus of Nazareth was the Jewish
Messiah and the Son of God. Through his
missionary activities and writing he eventually
transformed religious belief and philosophy
around the Mediterranean Basin.
The influence of Paul’s writing on Christian
thinking has been profound, due in
part to his association as a prominent
apostle of Christianity during the spreading
of the Gospel through early Christian
communities across the Roman Empire.
Paul the Apostle is perhaps the most
influential early Christian missionary and
leader of the first generation of Christians.
Among the many other apostles and missionaries
involved in the spread of the
Christian faith, Paul is considered to be
one of the most important in the history
of Christianity and one of the greatest religious
leaders of all times. Almost half of
the books of the New Testament are credited
to his authorship. The Bible does not
record Paul’s death in his writings. Paul
writes about anticipating his death. Ignatius
notes that Paul had been martyred.
He probably died in Rome c. A.D. 60-64.
