Ahead of the high-profile Hope08 tour later this month, 19-24 February, more than 1,000 people in 350 locations have signed up to "make Hope happen where they live".

"We're excited about the number who've registered their interest so far," said chairman Steve Clifford. "But we invite everyone else who wants to see God's kingdom spread across the UK - to also make Hope happen where they live."

Hope08, a year of united mission for every denomination across the UK, will be highlighted on the Soul Survivor Tour 2007 at five major cities in the Midlands and Southern England. The programme of activities is being taken to Oxford, Nottingham, Bristol, London and Cambridge.

Participants will hear about the plans from Soul Survivor leader Mike Pilavachi, and Andy Hawthorne from The Message or Roy Crowne of Youth for Christ

"Hope in 2008 provides an amazing opportunity for all Christians to work together and make a huge impact on this nation," said Mike Pilavachi. "My hope and prayer is that through representing Jesus in words and in deeds, we can see lives transformed and bring lasting change."

Andy Hawthorne has described this year of holistic mission as "the most exciting thing I've ever been involved in".

He added, "I honestly believe Hope in 2008 is an opportunity, perhaps like we've never had before, for every denomination, stream, conference and movement to play to their strengths - and together make a huge impact on this nation."

The programme will include lunch for 'advocates', a reception for church leaders and an evening event featuring the popular Soul Survivor mix of worship and teaching. The tour visit Manchester, Glasgow, Newcastle, Cardiff and Belfast in the October half-term week.
