Raising the Voice of a Unified Body of Church & Faith Leaders

In this podcast we hear from Pastor Lester Freckleton: Vine Community Church. A branch of the New Testament Church of God.  England and Wales. The Keyboard Trust has engaged in several conversations with Community, Church Leaders and Political representatives for several years. In 2020, we provided several statements in response to the events that had taken place in the USA with the killing of George Floyd on 25th May 2020 and the increase in local racial justice campaigning. We have now passed the 1st anniversary of the death of George Floyd. In response to that, we want to ask the question, has anything changed? We have asked a number of key Community, Church Leaders and Political representatives across the city to share their perspectives 12 months on, including Deputy Lord Mayor, Cllr Dr Carole Johnson JP who has served as local councillor for the Ashley ward for the past 5 years (2016 - May 2021); Bishop Ray Viera of House of Praise, Pastor David Mitchell of Woodlands Church and other faith groups who are standing with us in unity. It’s only when we come together as one group, including individuals, churches and professional bodies that we can face up to the issues of racial injustices and truly stand in solidarity alongside others who are hurting. Together, fired by a common vision, we can initiate bold and strategic actions and move forward towards a better world. As people of faith we believe prayer plays an important part in all of human life and activity so alongside our actions let us pray to the Lord for the renewal of law, order and justice.
