Very few families are not impacted in some way by cancer.
When it came to the ‘door’ for Ian Harbinson and Julie Peake-at different times, it impacted their lives massively. Ian went through surgery and treatment for a pancreatic tumour and Julie faced likewise for breast cancer. Both had been in ministry, Ian as a PCI minister and Julie as a deaconess with PCI.
“give us this day, our daily bread”
Matthew ch 6
Together they felt God’s direction to support others on a cancer journey, and jointly formed Semeron Cancer Support. Semeron is the Greek word used by Jesus in the original New Testament for ‘this day’ in Matthew ch 6 -“give us this day, our daily bread”.
Many cancer sufferers come to new appreciation of the worth of ‘this day’ which God has given. As Christians we want to live fully for God in ‘this day’ and share His grace and the hope He alone can give.
Open to all – Saturday 17th September.
On Saturday 17th September, Semeron is holding an event for cancer sufferers and their loved ones at Lodge Hotel Coleraine with guest speaker Hazel Reid, who is a chaplain at Causeway Hospital and has been impacted by cancer in her immediate family.
It is open to all, and begins at 10AM running until 12noon.
To help with arrangements and catering please confirm you plan to come either through registering on Semeron website www.semeron.org or phoning Ian on 07458038402.
