Following Jesus brings me hope because it helps me to realise that I'm
here for a reason and that my life matters. It brings me hope to realise
that we can do something about the state the world is in.

Being a Christian gives me hope for my future. I love the verse from Jeremiah that says "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to give you hope and a future." By putting my trust and hope in the Lord I don't have to worry about what the future holds as God has my future in His hands and has a purpose for my life.

During the summer of 2006 I started to attend the a youth group at Holy Trinity, because I wanted to know more about the church. As time went on and I became a regular member of my cell group, I found that my answers and my support did lie in Jesus and so I made a decision to commit my life to Him, which I have done and never looked back!

Eleven years ago I decided to do an Alpha course where I learnt that God is always with me and wants to be part of my everyday life. Since then, knowing Jesus has completely changed my life. I now live with the hope of God’s love and His purpose for my life. I know that God longs for everyone to experience this love.

I became a Christian in 1984 when I had just turned 56. All my life I had no interest in Christianity but then certain things happened which changed my mind. As I look back over my life I wonder why it took me so long to become part of God’s wonderful family.

James McMullen
Since becoming a Christian I have become very conscious of the hope that only Jesus Christ can bring as he has remained faithful to me through the ups and downs of the last forty years. During that time it has been my delight to share the hope that Jesus gives with many youngsters, and I long to see God bring back those youngsters who have passed through our churches over the years.
