This
long established annual event provides an unequalled opportunity to meet
other members and supporters of Crosslinks. There will be time to pray for
God's world‑wide church, listen to God's Word and be encouraged and
stimulated in our mission involvement. There will be opportunities to hear
news from churches around the world, and to ask questions and clarify
issues. The afternoons are free enabling you to explore locally - there are
cliff-top walks at hand; by car Dartmoor is but minutes away; or stay in and
snooze, swim, or chat.
Cost

Brunel
Manor Christian Centre
Brunel Manor is the present home of the Woodlands Trust, started in 1942 in London through the prayers of two ladies. The Trust was formed to run a home to provide spiritual, physical and mental refreshment by way of holidays, houseparties and conferences. The work moved to the present site in 1963.
The
Manor and the furnishings in it have been provided by the Lord in answer to
prayer. The indoor heated swimming pool is open all the year. Most rooms are
now en suite and the ground floor bedrooms have facilities individually
designed to meet the needs of different disabilities; The recent addition of
a lift means that there is no need to climb stairs to access any bedroom.
Please let us know of your special requirements by adding a note to the
Booking Form. Special diets, required on medical grounds, can be provided if
notified in advance. All rooms have tea making facilities. For further
information, 'phone Priscilla Gurney.
