Manchester ~ Kentucky

Manchester is being constantly referred to as the "City of Hope".  People throughout the country have seen and heard about Manchester and Clay County.  It hasn't always been good either.  About four years ago It all started with a small prayer group made up of different area churches who prayed for an end to illegal drug sales, illegal drug use, and for real transformation to come to the city and county.  Since this humble beginning Manchester has been featured on the CBN 700 Club twice as well as other national media outlets.  Certain local Christian leaders involved have been contacted from 43 states and several foreign countries stating how they have been inspired by the story of Manchester.  Stating that the Story of Manchester has restored hope for them in their cities.  This recurring theme of hope has been stated over and over and so much so that a resolution was entered and passed by a unanimous vote before the city council that Manchester be tagged as the "City of Hope".  This tag will be in the form of a small placard attached under the city limits sign at each entrance into the city.  The prayer group still meets and prays each Saturday morning for our city.
