And lift Him high we did - at themorning service and in the afternoon, whenwe looked at the team’s vision for theCCHC going forward. (See pages18-20 formore on Thanksgiving Day.)I have been coming to the Centre for nearlytwenty years now, making many lovelyfriends, and during that time, have seenmany changes in personnel and routine, butno matter who comes or goes, I know thatthe Lord will always be ‘in this place.’ Afterevery visit, I come away with a fresh touchof Jesus, through His Word in the servicesand through the love and care that is givenby the Chaplaincy team, Prayer Ministersand hospitality/catering staff.The ‘new thing’ is, and will continue to be,a ‘work in progress’ as step by step, theLord continues to lead the team forward.The successful outcome of the Gift Days inApril has confirmed the belief that the Lordis guiding the team and taking them forwardwith their vision.The buildingSome much needed work has been carriedout this year. In July a new carpet was laidoutside the kitchen and the corridor, whichwas also redecorated. A new UPVC slidingdoor has replaced the old aluminium one inthe sun corridor and as you can see from thephoto (top right), a new door and windowsFacebookAt the time of print, we are up to 408 ‘likes’!Henrietta Blyth, who was staying at the CCHCin July, was our 400th ‘liker’ and during her stay,Esther from the office, who is also in chargeof our Facebook and Twitter accounts, tookthe opportunity to take a celebratory photo.Henrietta is proudly holding the ‘400 likes’poster.
