Those serving Lancaster Church, have found that the old building they are in, needed some building repairs. These can be costly and along with running costs, found themselves struggling. Here at Blackburn Spiritualist Centre, we decided to help our friends out at Lancaster and hold a Fundraising Event. (See Poster <).
This was going to be a night of Mediumship with a twist.....
Chris Burgess was going to be our Guest Medium and would deliver messages from our loved ones in Spirit, with love, compassion and song. Yes that's right! Messages with an added extra of some love and laughter through music and dancing. For only £5.00 each to attend it promised to be a fantastic and fun night.
Unfortunately the day before our Guest Medium had to cancel as she was diagnosed with a chest infection, and travelling all the way from wales would not be ideal.
So Elaine our President had a small panic and put the call out to others for help.
At Blackburn Church, we have an amazing group of friends, and they answered Elaines Plea. David Lee from Darwens Connection of Light Church, who had closed their Church to come and support us, contacted Paul Deleth, who agreed to step in, We also had our own Carol Jackson (who runs the Awareness/Open Circle on Monday Nights at our Centre), agreed to help also. Also Ivy Love who has served our Centre for a long time agreed to join in too.
SO we had 3 Mediums to take the Rostrum on the night, and the night still had singing, laughter and love and support from spirit.
Gordon Walsh another of our friends and Medium offered a free private reading for our raffle.
We would like to extend our gratitude out to all those who helped us in our own hour of need, but to all those who attended and shown support for raising much needed funds for Lancaster Church.
Thankyou. Thankyou. Thankyou.
