200 people come into Night Church!


On Saturday about 200 people came into Night Church. It was a great evening with lots of opportunities to chat and pray with people. There was a real mix of ages, and some people returned from previous nights bringing friends in to see us.

















Late in the evening, I was asked by three ladies to go up to the altar and to pray for them. Moments like this the make all the hard work and the lack of sleep worthwhile! I was able to speak to them about God's love for each of them and then pray for them. One of them commented at the end, 'I wish I had been in here all night, I prefer it to all the pubs we've been in to'.

Feedback from Visitors




I have been reading through some of the feedback sheets from people who have popped into Night Church over the last few months. It has been really encouraging to see that Night Church has had such a positive impact on so many people.






Here are a few examples:



  • 'fantastic on so many levels'

  • 'really good and relaxing, better than Cruise Nightclub'

  • 'Brilliant, I wish they did something like this in Manchester'

  • 'It rocks - well done'

  • 'Absolutely amazing. Didn't think about things until now, after years'

  • 'It's a nice contrast to all the drunkeness you see in the City'

  • 'It's a brilliant idea, being able to pray for loved ones. It's really moving how much these guys care'

  • 'Friendly, understanding,doors open, non-judgemental'


These comments are a great encouragement for the team as they plan for Night Church this Saturday, on 14th May.
