With Special Guest Speaker - Nik - Many lives, one Great God …

"From living on the streets as a child, drink, drugs and violence, grief, life as a single parent, disability and unemployment, it is fair to say that Nik has known uncertainty and fear. But through a strange encounter and a bizarre twist of fate, Nik found himself lost in the shadows, living a life where no one could be trusted and you had to become close to the very monsters of your nightmares. Nothing was ever certain; lines were crossed, and death was never far away in this world of countering terrorism. Having so recently been held captive, nearly losing his own life and seeing others lose theirs, what drove Nik to risk it all, undertaking such an audacious operation deep in enemy territory to save the life of a terrorist?"

The cost is £10 per person for unlimited breakfast , tea & coffee plus a suggested £5 speaker donation

Spaces are limited so please contact Steve Hurley on 07921 - 875007 to book your place.
