Organised by a huge coalition of charities, faith groups, and civil society organisations, the Together Alliance march is a *safe, joyful, and family friendly* demonstration calling for a greater focus on *love, hope, and unity* in the face of a resurgent Far Right.

Red Letter Christians are urging Christians to be part of  Christian presence at the event. Far Right groups preaching hatred of migrants are using Christian language and symbols to advance their agenda. This threatens the Church’s witness to the good news of Jesus, as our faith is increasingly associated with movements seeking to exclude and oppress rather than love and liberate.

You can join the Christian Bloc, standing alongside organisations like St Martin-in-the-Fields, the Jesuit Refugee Service, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, the Student Christian Movement, and many more.

Sign up with this link to join the Bloc and joyfully proclaim Jesus’ love for all people on 28th March: https://forms.fillout.com/t/taUVQsj1dyus

There is also a wonderful, ecumenical worship service taking place on the morning of the march, 10.30am Saturday 28th March at Oasis Church Waterloo, SE1 7QP. Sign up with this link to come and focus on Jesus before we go out and represent Him at the march: https://oasiswaterloo.churchsuite.com/events/ekzbovwd

Bible By The Beach 2026!

We often hear about living for Jesus, but what does this look like in the world that God has placed us? What does living for Jesus mean in the various contexts and frontlines we find ourselves in?

At our annual Bible By The Beach conference this year, we will be exploring just that, and we are really excited to invite you to join us! We will be joined by a number of well-known speakers on our main stage including Vaughan Roberts, Rebecca McLaughlin, and Glen Scrivener, as well as many of our partners hosting various seminar sessions, inspiring us to see how God can use us in the different life stages we’re at and the different spheres we find ourselves. And of course, we will also be running a fantastic children and youth work for our young people at this crucial stage in their lives.

Whilst the conference is open to anyone around the UK, we do want to be a particular blessing to the churches in Eastbourne, so that together we can make a difference for His Kingdom locally!

So do come along, or perhaps even come as a church: you don’t want to miss out!
