Shine Your Light  at Parliament

A big thank you to Pat Monroe and Gabby Connell who represented Transform Work at the Parliamentary Reception for Shine Your Light that takes place at Christmas.

Pat Muotto
It was a pleasure to attend The National Day of Prayer (NDOPW) and Worship Shine Your Light 2025 Parliamentary reception on 7 May 2025. Jim Shannon MP, event sponsor as a Christian Member of Parliament welcomed the Christian leaders attending. He is also a Special Advisor to the Government on Matters of Faith and has been in politics for over 40 years. A couple of leaders were invited to share brief highlights from the December 2024 Shine Your Light campaign and concluded with a lively, inspirational speech from Dr. Jonathan Olayede, Convenor and Founder of the NDOPW. 

I was invited to attend on behalf of Transform Work as I am based in London and I learnt the Shine Your Light campaign to take the gospel outside the walls of churches onto the streets, places or work etc during December 2024 was successful in mobilising over 200,000 Christian’s to reach 2 million people in the UK. The room was filed with representatives that had taken part in the campaign from across UK regions. As Co-Chair of the Greater London Authority (GLA) Christian Staff network we hosted a Christmas Praise event in support of the Shine Your Light Campaign.  The event was held in the chamber at City Hall with live gospel music and traditional Christmas hymns sung which was very well attended by staff, family and friends.We also used the branding and prayer points suggested as part of the campaign materials.  

Dr. Olayede announced the campaign will run again in December 2025 Shine Your Light and we are looking forward to participating and would encourage you all to consider supporting this great evangelism initiative.
