SCRIPT:

A UK Christmas campaign ‘Shine Your Light’ has been launched to call hundreds of
thousands of Christians to unite in towns, villages and cities to share the real reason for the season out on the streets through open air services.

The initiative is led by the National Day of Prayer and Worship in collaboration with many denominations and key ministries; NDOP’s Convener Jonathan Oloyede says this campaign comes off the back of their recent Back To Pentecost initiative and the response has already been overwhelming:

“We’ve invited the whole church, all the denominations to take part in stepping out into shopping malls, high streets, pubs, railway stations in different public spaces. And to our surprise all the denominations have said yes, they’re going to go ahead with this. They all like the idea.”

And the hope is that at least half a million Christians from all denominations will take to the streets this Christmas to Shine Their Light across the nation. Peter Wooding reporting for the Global News Alliance.
