Dear friends,
It is with great sadness that we have reached the decision to cancel Capernwray’s Holiday Programme for the Spring Break 2020 and our Spring Bible School 2020. The Long and Short Ladies Weekends and Connect for the 11-13s will not now go ahead. We realise this will be a great disappointment to all of you who have been looking forward to the fellowship and Bible teaching which Capernwray offers.
We are conscious of our need to protect the health and well being of our guests, students and staff, and have been following Government guidance accordingly in this fast changing situation. Our decision is not taken lightly but we consider that cancelling is the wise response to the Government’s advice of 16 March to avoid non-essential contact and unnecessary travel, and the wider international situation.
We will be in touch with those who had booked to arrange refunds. However, as the bulk of Capernwray’s financial costs (staff and maintenance of the buildings) continue even during closure, if you felt able to consider donating back some or all of the refund due, that would be most welcome.
Thank you for your prayers for Capernwray. We ask that you continue to pray with us for wisdom for our governments and the Lord’s fatherly hand on all affected by this pandemic.
In Christ,
Brian Sweeney
Chairman of the Trustees
