Pentecost Praise - 19 May


Pentecost Praise
The Christian Church throughout the city coming together to worship, celebrate and proclaim the Good News.

There is growing excitement throughout Bradford’s churches at the suggestion that we all come together on Pentecost Sunday 19th May in the City Park (3 – 6pm).The plan is to stage a colourful, welcoming and very joyful event. Things will start gradually in the afternoon with music, street entertainment, face-painting, café, arts and crafts and lots of conversations etc. At tea-time, we all sit down for a grand picnic, and then the day comes to a climax with worship, prayer and proclamation (5 – 6pm).

We want to create an event that Christians will find both enjoyable and deeply significant - one that we can invite friends to and that will engage with the passing public. We want to bring a warm, buzzing and welcoming Christian experience into the heart of the city.
Pentecost Praise is about
·       Unity
·       Empowerment
·       Praying for the City
·       Proclaiming Jesus
It is going to be brilliant!
To make it happen we need lots of churches bringing lots of people. Do please come and join us.

Which leads me to ask, have we ever wondered about who it is we are trying to communicate to, and about what?  For example, there have been many adverts in ‘ The Link’ about coffee mornings and cake....
