Ev 104 City of Angels: Blessing Your Community by Hosting an Angel Festival (2013)

£2.77

People often believe in angels when they cannot believe in God. For Christians, angels are the messengers, not the message itself, but folk-religious beliefs about angels can be good news, because they provide areas of common ground and an important place of encounter.

Holy Trinity Church, Ripon hosted an Angel Festival to bless the city and start a conversation asking what messages God might have for us today. This booklet explains how the festival was conceived and organized and what the church learned from it, in the hope of inspiring generous yet engaging ways of blessing the community whatever your local context.
