Finding Your Oasis “O
ne for the memory bank.” A friend and I were reminiscing on a particularly memorable time away on a schooner in the Greek islands. Especially the time when we arrived off an upmarket beach with the eyes of all on the beach on us! Perhaps we were very successful businessmen? Hopefully they didn’t see us as bankers, politicians or footballers! Then there was the time when the potholed track seemed to go on forever. In reality it was probably no more than a mile but it took all of 5 minutes to reach the end. The end of the road revealed a structure which, it has to be said, did resemble something like the picture on the website and after parking the car we took the key from the old lady and ventured inside. Interesting place architecturally, but the presence of scores of weird looking statues and ornaments, most with their heads missing, was disconcerting to say the least. Stifling the urge to head for the door, we somehow managed to fashion a week’s holiday before heading home a day early. My wife and I decided not to go back there. It wasn’t a long discussion! Finding a good and peaceful place to stay can be a bit of a lottery, especially when lotteries might not be your thing. Fortunately there are hundreds of comfort-

SNEATON CENTRE A VERY SPECIAL VENUE
Finding Your Oasis continued able, attractive and peaceful places out there if you know where to look. Many Christian residential centres have self catering units available with the added bonus of events, sports facilities and other attractive features on hand. Above all, the assurance of a warm welcome and an atmosphere which reminds you of all that is good in your life, is priceless. Chris Edmondson, Bishop of Bolton says “My experience is that in our stress-filled, hurry-sick world, it has never been more important that people have places where they can step back and be refreshed in body, mind and spirit.” Many of these oases can be found on the holiday search facility contained on the CCI website – www.christianholidays.org.uk. So, unless you crave the dubious excitement of the totally unknown, seek out a great place to stay on holiday in 2011. As someone once said, “The circumstances of life don’t determine your destiny, it’s the decisions you make.” Keith Wagnell
