The Cathedral Church of St. Anne, Belfast is going to celebrate Lewis’ Legacy this November. From the PDF:
“All their life in this world and all their adventures had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on for ever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.” (The Last Battle)
To mark fifty years since the Belfast born story- telling scholar, teacher and Christian apologist began what he called Chapter One of the Great Story. Whatever age you are why not visit Belfast Cathedral and record in a specially provided book how you have been influenced by his writings and his stories.
The Book will be available in the Cathedral from Friday 22nd November the date of his death to Friday 29th November his birthday.
Groups are welcome please arrange in advance with mary@belfastcathedral.org
The life and writings of C.S. Lewis have been a long time positive force for me as I have struggled with my humanity vs. my spirituality. His honesty and integrity encourage me to continue my own struggle, as I stay connected to the Christian community God has led me to.
His deep and ordained insights both amaze and motivate me to continue to “fight the good fight”. Thank you for keeping the Lewis Legacy alive and well.
CS Lewis (Jack) has had a profound influence in my life and the lives of my children. His legacy is eternal, his books have reached out to generations. Thank you for continuing to keep the candle lit. I am looking forward to meeting him and Joy in Heaven
Next to the Bible his works are my steadfast friends and help in times of need. His gift for sophisticated language made profound and simple is a great reminder that God asks us to have the faith of a child with the wisdom of adulthood. He really makes one think and think deeply about what really matters. Thank you God for men like this.
Sorry, I have no love for Belfast. Since the news of Lennox’s death and the execution of the BSL laws, I vowed I would never visit that place not even for Lewis. I love Lewis, but not Belfast.
