Dear friends and supporters,

Welcome to the May edition of the People without Limits eNews.

We're looking forward to being at the CRE this month, with an exciting stand, lots of new advertising, and even a little competition for our visitors!

If you haven't seen our new ads, check out our full page ad currently in Sorted, the mens magazine. Our new Detling Youth postcard is also attracting a lot of interest.

Coast to Coast Walk - April 2010

We mentioned last month that on Tuesday 6th April, as part of a fundraising effort for People Without Limits, a team of Detling stewards were leaving St. Bees Head, on the Irish Sea coast of Cumbria to arrive in the village of Robin Hood’s Bay on the North Sea coast of Yorkshire 12 days later.

Well, the team endured inclement weather, sore limbs but kept their spirits high and completed the walk on schedule, triumphant and elated. Photos taken during the 12 day trek are available to view on the team’s dedicated Facebook site.

It's not too late to support the ministry of PWL and donate online through www.justgiving.com/coast2coast-detling.

General Election 2010 - Make the Cross Count

As we draw closer to what could potentially be a new government in this country, why not think about making what we believe stand for something in this election? For more information, visit the Make The Cross Count website.

Why should Christians be involved in politics?

J. John has written an insightful article into why Christians should be involved in politics. It talks about moral, Christian-based, historical and pragmatic commitments. To read the article in full, please visit www.detling.com/latestnews.

Detling 2010 Evening Entertainment

We are putting the finishing touches to our evening entertainment programme. Confirmed so far are:

The Thrill Factor - Steve Legg returns with a packed programme including Beverley Trotman (of X Factor fame), Graham Cole (PC Tony Stamp from The Bill), Tough Talk, and Danny Owen as Neil Diamond, certainly not an evening to be missed. Stuart Pendred will be the resident musician for the week.

Other after-hours events taking place in the main venue include an evening with Graham Kendrick, Ishmael's Revival Band, Paul Field and Dan Wheeler, a special screening of Faith Like Potatoes and the return of Jonathan Veira!
