Sheffield MasterClass
 More than 140 leaders attended the first MasterClass held in the English city of Sheffield. The event was a real hit, with inspiring sessions led by Mal Fletcher and Dave Gilpin. Leaders came from as far afield as Liverpool in the north and Newport, Wales in the south.
The MasterClass was followed by major meetings in Hope City Church, Sheffield and a major '4 Cities' public meeting in Leeds, which was the prelude to the planting of a new church in that city.
The atmosphere in the MasterClass was charged, as people joined in with the spirit of this intensive leadership event. Responses have been coming in and people are already looking forward to the next Sheffield MasterClass, tentatively scheduled for the autumn of 2005.
At the two Sunday morning meetings in Hope City Church, Mal shared what senior pastor Dave Gilpin called a 'strong apostolic word'. One of the major focuses of the weekend was the '4 Cities' meeting in a major Leeds conference centre. More than 600 people from Hope City's three churches – in Sheffield, Liverpool and Manchester – came to Leeds, one week in advance of the launch of a new Hope City church. The Leeds meeting was strongly prophetic, with special ministry to leaders and people hungry to help pioneer a new age of influence for the church.
'This weekend will have eternal results,' said Mal Fletcher. 'Hope City is growing fast, but it's going to see much bigger things in days to come. Dave Gilpin and his team are building something that is going to impact the very heart of the UK.'
