Liza shows she’s not planning retirement

A CHRISTIAN who began volunteering for an environmental project aged 74 will deliver a talk at Milton Abbas Church tomorrow.

Liza Fawcett joined the Eden Project, the Cornwall-based environmental complex, after an appeal went out for volunteers at the New Wine' Christian festival.

Mrs Fawcett has since left the Eden Project and continues her Christian work in Harpurhey, Manchester.

A spokesman for Milton Abbas Church said: "She really is a fascinating woman who felt God was calling her to move to Harpurhey. She will discuss her motives for moving, her work and other topics, including her time at the Eden Project."

Milton Abbas's vicar, The Rev Robin Hungerford, added: "Liza's story just goes to show that a Christian never retires."

The talk will begin at 6pm tomorrow and is open to all to attend, free of charge.

Refreshments will be served afterwards.

For more details contact Mr Hungerford on 01258 880482.

Mrs Fawcett became a Christian 40 years ago and lived for many years in Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire before she moved to Cornwall to volunteer with the Eden Project and most recently to Manchester.
