On Sunday, 14th October at 10am, a generous amount of holy oil, blended with olive oil from the Holy Land will be given FREE OF CHARGE to everyone who attends.
This oil will serve as a point of contact, a tangible way for you to use your faith and connect with God.
We challenge you to come with your problems and see for yourself what God can do in your life.
