On Thursday 23rd August, Shine Your Light had two excellent Zoom meetings with hundreds of Shine Your Light Champions and some of you. Around 130 joined at lunchtime and then over 300 in the evening with a further five hundred viewing via Facebook and YouTube.
They shared some exciting updates, including the launch of the Save the Date Video and a Shine Your Light conference at Stockport in November targeting local networks and Churches across the North.
They also shared an update on how to purchase resources and the sponsorship of the Christmas Programme Booklet.
They've seen hundreds of registrations already which is so encouraging.
As partners and supporting ministries, they would love your help in a number of ways:
1.Share the Save the Date Video across your networks
