As Christmas draws closer a nationwide campaign by church leaders is encouraging people not to forget the true message of the season. Shine Your Light events are taking place across the country, including hundreds of flash mob style carols and nativities.
Brilliant to be with Transform Newham last night for their civic & carol community service - well done @SimClinton for bringing it all together!
As well as the mix of carols, it was great to hear testimony & gospel drill from ‘Goons4God’.

This is what the Lord Almighty said:
Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another.
Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the foreigner or the poor.
Zech 7:9-10a
Justice protects the vulnerable, it does not criminalise those seeking refuge.
