We invite you (and as many people as possible) to an evening of prayer and envisioning, led by the Rector of St Ann’s, Rev Nigel Ashworth and the team. The “We are One” walk will take place on Saturday 28th November 2009 going from Salford Cathedral to Manchester Cathedral. At the sharing the vision evening we will

· pray for God’s guidance and support on that great day

· share the draft ideas for the walk

· enable you and your Church to get involved

In January 2000 hundreds of Christians from all over Manchester met at Salford Cathedral (Roman Catholic) for worship and walked with church leaders through centre of the city to Manchester Cathedral (Anglican). Please visit the website www.weareonemanchester.org.uk to watch a video record of that wonderful day, when regardless of our traditions and denominations, we were truly One in Christ because we

· prayed and praised as one

· were seen by the world to be one

· our message was simple and direct – WE ARE ONE.

In November 2009 we will walk in witness again, joining across the nationalities and traditions - African, American, Anglican, Asian, Baptists, Caribbean, Catholic, Coptic, Chinese, European, Episcopalian, Evangelical, Indian, Methodist, New Churches, Orthodox, Pakistani, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, Salvationist, United Reformed – indeed everybody who believes in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Hope...Unleashed!!!

Hope has been Unleashed in Greater Manchester's high schools throughout 2008. Starting in Macclesfield in January, 7 gigs later it finished in Manchester's Apollo in November to a packed auditorium of 3,500 people. The bands that went into the schools throughout the year, thebandwithnoname, LZ7, BlushUK and Twelve24 gave some amazing performances and our thanks goes out to them for all their hard work.

So what next? Unleashed 2009? That's right Hope Unleshed will be back next year with the bands going into more schools than ever before.
