The charity has tackled the problem of poverty in isolation for over 70 years, extending a lifeline to isolated communities in 27 countries across the developing world. This is largely due to the belief that nothing should stop people from receiving the love of God and the essentials of life. They operate in the most remote corners of the world; flying medical relief and life-transforming help to vulnerable people in hard-to-reach places such as Angola, Chad and Haiti.
The Festival has been endorsed by the many national leaders including Director of the Evangelical Alliance, Gavin Calver saying “This exciting new gathering has the potential to greatly equip Christians in the north and see many come to faith as well. I wish it all the very best.”
