WINCHESTER Cathedral is hosting the launch of a new 'community building' programme for professional people.

The aim of Fruitfulness on the Frontline is to develop and resource communities of professionals who connect their discipleship as Christians with the particular markets and industries in which they work.

The workplace is often the ‘frontline’ of faith, where Christian values are sometimes challenged by the pressures of survival in the market.

Mark Greene is the executive director of the London Institute of Contemporary Christianity and he will give a lecture to introduce six further events in May and June. Details to follow.

Mr Green's talk will be on Monday March 6 at 7.30pm in Wessex Learning Centre, Inner Close.

Tickets: £5 from the Cathedral Box Office.
