Hope08 Birmingham
What would you do if you had more money?
Or more time?
What if you weren’t tied down by red tape?
What if your community was fully behind you?
Let’s find out, together.
Churches in Birmingham are coming together, to give meaning to the message of hope that Jesus came to bring. Every community needs something. Maybe it’s a practical need such as cleaning, teaching, or healing. Maybe it's a spiritual need in a community broken by crime, poverty and anger. Whatever the need, the Christians of Birmingham are coming together to try and help.
This is just the beginning. We are aiming to add news, events, and so much more! So keep coming back and get involved.

Hope 08 News in the West Midlands
Lizzy Sharman is just one member of the new fully fledged Hope News teams now operating in the West Midlands. They are looking for stories of what God is doing throughout the region during Hope 08 which they can report on national Christian media.
Hope News stories will be delivered in rotating 2 minute slots throughout the months on UCB Television (Satellite 766). The news clips are also available on the HopeNews website. This team is just one of 17 volunteer news teams from across the country. Lizzy reported on the top quality news production training these teams received this February, in Horsham, West Sussex…. “These four training days were incredible – so much more than media skills training! We had excellent input from several experienced broadcasters working in the secular and Christian media. Others (the Director of Hope08, Mal Fletcher, the Director of the Christian Broadcasting Council and the Director of UCB) came along to communicate their vision and passion for changing the nation through media and through Hope 08. The whole time seemed completely infused with God’s presence and God’s heart. It is clear that God is already at work and doing great things in people’s lives. The trainers were not only experts in their field but also really genuine people with a passion for God and for communicating him and his truth through their work.” The West Midlands Hope News Team Lizzy Sharman – Reporter/PresenterDave Moody – Cameraman/LightingLee Bozier-Lown – Editor/Director If you have any stories/events that you would like the WM Hope News Team to cover, please contact Lizzy Sharman lizbizwhiz@hotmail.com
