‘Surprised by Joy’ – August Bank Holiday 2010
Thursday 26th - Monday 30th August
Come and Visit the Flowers!
From 10.00am till 6.00pm each day come and see Biblical themes unravelled in spectacular displays of wonderfully presented flowers. Easy parking and plenty of restaurants on site.
Come and Stay!
During the last twelve years the Gorsley Festival has grown from around 40 adults and 50 children to around 1500 adults and 600 young people. It's put together in such a way that people at all ages and stages in life can discover not only what it means to know Christ in a personal way but also, be 'built up' and 'encouraged in their faith.'
We do all this in a really down to earth and relaxed way, where people have time to get to know each other as well as rub shoulders with some great speakers and leaders.
Last year over 5000 people visited the festival and returned home ‘fired up’ to serve in their local churches, and an amazing amount of young people and children made commitments to follow Christ. Why not join us this year? If you need any further brochures or we can help you in any way please give our office a call or email.
You can also download a booking form or a brochure or a pdf for your church screen or bulletin. For the first time you can also book your camping and London Community Gospel Choir tickets online
