Back to Church launch in Derby

Wish you were here x x xFriday September 15th was the press launch for Back to Church in Derby outside Derby Cathedral. Members of the Cathedral choir sang beautifully to capture the attention of passers by. This was followed by a speech by the Rt Rev’d Dr Alastair Redfern, Bishop of Derby, explaining what the initiative was about.

Around 100 balloons with a Back to Church invitation attached were release - a gesture to demonstrate that the invitation to return to church and to God is extended to all people. Back to Church goodie bags were given out to spectators at the end.
