It was a day to feel more connected and aware of the work still to be done. The reconstruction process is in full swing and every month that passes, neighbouring communities begin to see how they re-build their houses. No European city has suffered destructive earthquakes like Lorca, but we cannot fall into complacency. After reconstruction we have to continue promoting the city’s economic revival. The investment package will convert Lorca that not only has overcome the most destructive catastrophe produced in Spain, but also reinforce to achieve the difficult economic situation and the challenges that lie ahead. We operate globally and develop activities in sectors as crucial as agriculture, livestock, industry, tourism and trade, and support entrepreneurship by establishing measures to encourage the creation of new projects, enabling support instruments entrepreneur. 3.3 million euros has been granted for the Construction Of A Sewage Treatment Plant on the river Turrilla in Lorca.

There is a Proverb which says ‘Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a desire fulfilled is a tree of life’…Prov 13v12. We do a lot of hoping day by day … careful with the typing there as I am sure we do not do a lot of hopping! We hope the weather will be good; we hope people are on time and we hope we get better soon, and so on. The dictionary defines hope as ‘to cherish a desire of good with some expectation of fulfillment, or to have confidence’. It is great to have hope, but as the Proverb says, when it is dashed it can knock us back. I think most of us have given-up any hope that our governments will manage the current financial crisis. Perhaps the ‘Pastie’ tax and now the ‘Bedroom’ tax have clinched that! Other areas of life appear to be hopeless as well, especially if you are looking for employment, or playing the Lottery? Unfortunately, without hope we are really left with uncertainty or despair. This of course can make the heart sick. But don’t give-up! The Bible speaks of a different kind of hope. In fact a hope that simply requires us to wait for the right timing because the things we hope for when we are dealing with God are guaranteed and we will not be let down or disillusioned or disappointed. We are studying the letters of Peter at the moment in our Wednesday studies and despite the oppression and persecution his readers were experiencing, Peter tells them to ‘.. set your hope fully on the grace that is coming to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ’ 1 Peter1v13. This kind of hope placed in God leads to a fruitful and living hope which will never disappoint….a tree of life.
