CHRIST CHURCH LILLE WELCOMES YOU

 

Christ Church is the only English-speaking church in the city and
surrounding area. Our services and most other activities are held in English.

 

We extend a warm welcome to all Christians who wish to worship in English. In fact our congregation is multi-denominational and multi-cultural. During a recent survey taken on a Sunday in October 2010, 21 nationalities were recorded and 15 languages spoken at home. There are international students from the universities, people working for an international company in the area, long and short-term residents, tourists and visitors.

In John 2:1-11, where Jesus transforms water into wine for a wedding celebration, an amazing thing happens:  water stops being water and starts being something else, because Jesus needed it to. He doesn’t seem to put any effort at all into the transformation, as if it simply isn’t necessary. It just happens, easy as breathing. The ease, the apparent lack of exertion, makes the miracle all the more astonishing. Jesus does the impossible, and it’s like he doesn’t even have to try.

God is the same now as he was then, and this effortless power, this complete control is also the same. God is more real than reality, and nothing will keep him from doing anything he has in mind to do — the same in my life as in six water jars...
