ABOUT THE  FESTIVAL

This was the fifth year this Festival had been held in Bath.  It was a lively event celebrating the fact that the Christian life is exciting, life changing and exhilarating and challenging!

This years event was opened and closed by the Senior Chaplain to the Avon & Somerset Police Force, the Revd Andy Paget.  

Held in the heart of Bath at the Parade Gardens, the event featured vibrant music and real life stories of healing, transformation and new beginnings.  Stephen, Nicola and Nicolee, together with their accompanists, sang beautiful and inspirational songs of worship and testimony.  Tim, Debbie and Trudy also told their own remarkable stories from their own very different backgrounds.  And also during the event, Davey Falcus, from Northumberland, the main speaker, told his own story of transformation through the power of an encounter with Christ, from a life of crime and violence.

There were also marquees and displays from local and national Christian organisations and charities, including our own, local, well-regarded Genesis Trust. Also the following were represented. The Full Gospel Businessmen,  The Christian Police Association,  Gideons International,  Teen Challenge,  Open Air Campaigners, and SAT-7 (a Christian satellite broadcaster to the Middle East and North Africa).  The HOTS (Healing on the Streets) team were also there, willing to pray and talk with anyone who valued prayer for healing, or any other challenging personal situation.
