Programme for Summer 2009
We shall be looking at the Book of Acts, surely one of the most exciting books in the New Testament as it records the significant growth of the Christian Church in the 1st Century.
Under the leadership of the Bishop of Manchester our diocese is committed to seeking growth in the 21st Century. There must be lessons we can learn from the early Christians which we can apply to improve our performance in the today's era.
