The Heavenly Man
1 June, 7.30pm at the
Greenway Centre
Come and hear the
amazing story of Brother
Yun, author of “The Heavenly Man”.
After many years imprisoned for his
faith, Brother Yun escaped from
Zhengzhou Maximum Security prison
from which it is reported that nobody
had previously escaped. He described
how he heard the voice of the Holy
Spirit, telling him to simply walk out of
the heavily guarded prison gate
despite having had both his legs
broken. “If God can release me from
the solitary confinement of China’s
highest security prison,” he declares,
“then He can certainly release you
from whatever is holding you.”
Pentecost Sunday 27 May
2-6pm (Doors open from 1pm)

churches & spheres of society in our city.
A cross-church gathering of this breadth
has probably never happened before in
Bristol's history!
