||number ofprayer meetings in collaboration
with various Christian charities across
Manchester. These gatherings have
provided mutual encouragement and||||
||
||||spiritual support for Christian work in the
region.||||
|||A highlight ofthe yearwas an extended||||
|||worship and prayer event, which brought||||
|||together approximately 100 Christians from||||
|||diverse backgrounds across the city. This||||
|||event served as a powerful expression of||||
|||unity and shared faith.||||
|||We also welcomed two new trustees to our||||
|||board, who have brought valuable support||||
|||and insight during a season ofsignificant
transition.|||||
|||At the beginning of2025, MHOP concluded|||||
|||its partnership with the Message Trust.||||
|||Following mutual agreement, both parties||||
|||recognised that the collaboration had||||
|||reached its natural end and that moving on|||||
||||would be beneficial.As a result, MHOP will|||||
|||now be operating from two new locations||||
