Enterprise boldly goes…

The first graduations as part of a ground-breaking enterprise programme, encouraging Christians to become entrepreneurs, have taken place.

The first church to take part in The Spirit of Enterprise programme was Zac’s House Kingdom Community, part of Knutsford Methodist Church, but active in the town of Northwich. The church’s pastor Neal Stanton (pictured) said: ‘So many people find themselves out of work and believe they have no future or hope. We wanted to change that.’

The graduate-entrepreneurs are: a profoundly deaf teenager Kiera, who sells; Sarah McKechnie who makes party balloons; Diane Smith who designs and makes T-shirts, pillows and cards; and photographer and artist André Van-Thomas.
