New Wine Festival in South West
In previous years, a number of you tuned into online broadcasts from the seminars and worship from the New Wine summer festival from people like Peter Grieg from 24-7 prayer.
Last year the festival moved back to the south-west and the good news is that it is staying in the Bath and West Showground.
As ever there is amazing provision for children and youth and, lots of seminars for adults as well as daily worship and teaching, opportunities for prayer ministry, and cafes to just chill out in and talk with friends.
