Naseby Battle Site
- The Battle of Naseby took place on June 14th 1645 and was a decisive battle of the First English Civil War. The site was in the beautiful countryside of Northamptonshire and it was here we gathered for a time of prayer and reconciliation, recognising the deep division between Gods people. With Katie representing the Catholic faith and Mark the Protestant we asked forgiveness for the divisions and the blood that had been shed in His name. We finished by declaring a blessing of life in its fullness over the land and its peoples. There was a real sense of peace as we left for home that day. We believed that what God had given us to do that day had been completed.
