CHURCHES TOGETHER IN THE MERSEYSIDE REGION (CTMR)

JOINT PRAYER – SATURDAY 13TH JUNE 2026

The work done by the Walton community to restore the damage done to Spellow Library in 2024 is typical of the resilience and goodwill that is a hallmark of communities across Merseyside.

The people of Walton deserve to be heard, respected and empowered in ways that enhance the wellbeing and cohesion of all.

We recognise the challenges and disadvantages that many such neighbourhoods face, but believe it is for those communities to speak for themselves.

Our Manifesto of Hope consultation events are one example of our commitment to help facilitate this.

We wish to affirm the dignity of every person, whatever their colour or creed, as created in the image and likeness of God.

We stand against any who seek to impose their own agendas and create division.

We pray for peace in the local community.

Campaign this week in Walton CLP

05/06/2026

Hello
Liverpool will always be a city of hope, not hate. I believe that a planned march on County Road is designed to intimidate and deepen divisions within our communities and I strongly believe it should not go ahead.

Today, as part of our annual State of the City event, we launched our new Anti‑Racism Strategy. Liverpool is a proudly diverse city, and standing together against racism is essential to keeping our communities strong and welcoming.

It was great to bring local partners and community organisations together at the event to talk about how we can keep enhancing life in Liverpool.

We reflected on the progress made over the past year, including support for young families through our Best Start in Life plan and the work of the Fairer Healthier Liverpool Partnership, which has helped reduce smoking rates across the city.

As this week is Volunteer Week, I want to say a heartfelt thank you to the many groups and individuals who give their time to make a difference. It's been fantastic to hear people talking about how they're getting stuck in to helping their communities.

Have a great weekend.
