The next Coventry Praise event is fast approaching on Saturday 13th Sept! (Please note this was changed from the previously scheduled date.) These well attended events provide Christians across Coventry and the surrounding areas the opportunity to gather together in worship and prayer. It also provides a platform to inspire us about what God is doing across our communities. The speaker will be the Rt. Rev'd Sandy Millar, known for his post as the vicar at Holy Trinity Brompton through the development of the Alpha Course and Sandra Godley will lead worship. We'll be praying for autumn Alpha courses and other Hope Explored initiatives of Hope '08.
