City Vision day at Heath Hall

Monkeys aren’t sharing the bananas through the cages!!

Thank you Tony for peaking our interest right from the get go. It was that saying along with a few others that you have gathered along the way which always makes us think.

The one thing we need to focus on more is that you can’t see the culture you are most familiar with. What does that mean to you?

However the question that soon ran throughout as it does in many of our meetings - What is the narrative and who is actually setting that for our city? -

What many may fail to realise is that we still have broken churches trying to reach broken cities and until we have a healed church we won’t be able to have a blessed city.

Much of this has to do with our perceptions and are we serving our community well in ALL areas not just one or two.

Even though there are many other religious groups who seem to be determining the narrative already - we must always remember that we will NEVER be able to stop GOD bringing His narrative.

These conversations as we come together are to help us learn from one another but also to challenge us to do something to begin to make room for God’s narrative to break through.

Will it be the same for every city? Probably not because every city has different needs- different leaders etc but wouldn’t God already be aware of that before you started?

Even though we were privileged to hear stories from different cities and even our international team of what God is doing in their areas - we are looking to engage as many of you as possible to join forces and be a part of the conversations that are bringing solutions- connecting people divinely and empowering each other to join together collectively to make a difference across the UK in our cities.

Our next gathering will be announced soon - let’s start sharing the bananas.
