It’s been a tough time for many with Covid 19, and January can often be challenging anyway. The January Light Mission Initiative is a response from the Methodist Church in East Anglia and Bedfordshire, Essex & Hertfordshire to spread the light of God’s love in January 2021 by:

• reaching out to our communities
• sharing friendship and hope
• bringing a little bit of January Light
