M:Power is a unique project to train and equip people to share the good news of Jesus in urban communities.

Quite simply, M:Power is for anyone who loves Jesus and lives in an estate or urban community! The unique style of M:Power means it is particularly suitable for people who are nervous of education and learning.  

Perhaps you had a bad experience at school, don't like writing, or haven't done a course for many years  M:Power is for Christians from all church traditions, and our tutors represent the diversity of  Church of England traditions.

Why would someone want/need to do the course. 

If you want to make a difference in the estate or urban community you live in, want to grow in confidence, learn new skills and meet others with a similar passion, you should do M:Power!

When and where will it happen?

This year the programme begins in the week beginning October 30 and runs until June next year. We will have five Hubs (venues).  You can choose the one closest or most convenient to you.  

The Hubs are:

• Morecambe: Monday evening
• Blackpool: Tuesday daytime
• Colne: Wednesday daytime
• Lower Darwen: Wednesday evening
• Preston: Thursday daytime

What is involved in the course if you attend?

M:Power is fairly unique in that there is no homework! Most of the learning takes place through conversation, with tutors teaching in an interactive and visual style. There is one project to complete during your time on M:Power, which is to lead a mission event in your parish. Over the years each event has been unique to the participant and we give you lots of ideas and support.
