!Audacious Church Manchester - Unique
Manchester, England is perhaps best known worldwide as the home of two leading football teams and the new Media City enclave, which houses studios for some of the UK's leading broadcasters.
But there may soon be much more to celebrate within this great city - that's if !Audacious Church continues its present growth, in both size and community influence.
On a recent speaking visit to the church, Mal Fletcher found a group of people who are passionate about their city and nation, in what is arguably one of the fastest growing churches in the nation.
Pioneered and led by Pastors Glyn and Sophia Barrett, who are strong friends of Next Wave, the church is built around a strong sense of vision for adding to the quality of life in the city, along with a strategy to engage with civic leadership.
Whilst there, Mal launched the 2020Project which will kick off in Manchester early in 2014 (watch this space). He met with the local Strategy Team who will be responsible for the project and was very encouraged by the quality of people involved.
After his visit, Mal said: 'I visited !Audacious Church once before, in its very early days.'
'Standing on the stage this time, in their much larger building, it was hard to believe they've only been going for five years!'
'I can say with conviction: there is definitely more to Manchester now than football and media!'

Mal, I just wanted to thank you for visiting Abundant Life and RN06. I am a psychiatrist in the NHS and agree very much with what you were saying about the secular services coming to us in 20 years for advice on how to do things. A group of us are starting a ministry to be ready to be asked!

Mal, it was a great honor to have you here at The Living Room USA for Masterclass. It has opened up a whole new dimension to our vision...Thanks so much for all the valuable material here on your website. We promise to put it to good use.

Fantastic and inspiring article Mal about the London bombings. I will be passing this on to others. May God continue to bless your unique and powerful ministry.
