The Lantern Church Merley

The Lantern Church Merley The Lantern is a lively Anglican church (part of the Canford Magna Team), just south of Wimborne Minster, Dorset. and we pray will continue, into the future.

Right from the beginning in 1976 the lantern has been “buzzing”. Literally thousands of children and teenagers have heard about God through the youth work, and countless folks have come closer to God through great services, great people and the blessings from our great God. The ripples from this community of faith keep flowing out, and we pray will continue, into the future.

The weekend before Easter, the Lantern Church took 70 of their teenagers away to Heatree Activity Centre for their annual youth house party. Supported by 30 volunteer leaders, the 4-day weekend included games, Bible studies, worship and lots of food (including a ‘bushtucker trial’ one evening!), with the teaching theme for the weekend being Adventurous Faith, based on Hebrews 11. The Revd Mike Tufnell said, "One highlight was the Saturday evening meeting, which extended to four hours because the young people didn't want to stop worshipping and praying for each other, with several accepting Jesus as their Saviour for the first time.

The following weekend, on Easter Sunday, several of the young people joined others (ages ranged from 13 to 80!) who had also recently come to faith in Jesus in being baptised or reaffirming their vows. It was a beautiful and joyful day celebrating the Risen Jesus and the new life he brings."
