We Are Men United’ Kicks-Off Major Movement in the UK at Stoke City Football Club

By Peter Wooding, European Bureau Chief for the ASSIST News Service

STOKE-ON-TRENT, UK (ANS - June 23, 2016) -- As the UK votes today on its future in Europe, a group of men from very different walks of life are launching a powerful movement to ignite purpose and passion in men from across the United Kingdom.

“We Are Men United” is set to be a significant national gathering of Christian men at Stoke City Football Club on May 27, 2017, and featuring boxer Nigel Benn, former professional footballer Linvoy Primus, US evangelist Andrew Palau, Martin Smith, Paul Scanlon, Robin Mark, Noel Robinson and many more.

“As the nation is divided over the EU referendum, we believe it’s more important than ever to unite the Christian men of this country to lead, to serve and use their God-given authority for good,” explains Simon Paul Edwards from Walk Ministries.

Simon, who is one of the key people behind the vision of “We Are Men United” added: “I believe this day is not just a one off event, but it will birth a powerful movement that will change the spiritual atmosphere in this nation. We want to see men come together to be all we are meant to be in the eyes of our God, and run the race that has been marked out for us.”

As part of the launch of “We Are Men United” a very powerful video (https://youtu.be/xlfuhE0Z9Ng) is being released today, which features the following declaration from four men from very different walks of life.

They include former boxer Nigel Benn, who said: “Some men have great stories, great dreams, great courage. Others refuse to stay on the side lines, to stay down, or stay silent. And there are those with amazing faith who believe the best is yet to come. Who are those men? We are and we believe you are too. On May 27, 2017, ‘We Are Men United’ will take place here at Stoke City Football Club.

“We’ll be gathering together and equipping a nation of men to live for the glory of God. To live like men of incredible hope, amazing strength and fearless faith. To live like the men we were made to be. We’ll bring men from all walks of life into this stadium to lift the name of Jesus high. We’ll do that shoulder to shoulder in unity, knowing that God will pour out his spirit and move among us in powerful ways.

“‘We Are Men United’ is a dream on our hearts and a moment that will birth a movement. We invite you to come and join us. Do not miss this amazing opportunity.”
