Our Story
Christian Restoration Manchester is a church that began as the dream of Isaac Sany. After University who wanted to create a place that would help people find their way back to God.
Services were first held in East Manchester in Openshaw in 2009. And 3 years later we changed location to North Manchester in Higher Blackley on Victoria Avenue.
Christian Restoration Manchester was established on a strong foundation of deep, desperate prayer and seeking God. Our call is to spread the message of Christ to the nations.
Our Mission
Our mission is helping people find their way back to God. We accomplish this by reaching people far from God, restoring God's dream for the world, and reproducing this mission in others.
Our Vision scripture is Isaiah 58:12:
“Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; and you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, restorer of Streets with Dwellings”.
Our 3 Year Vision
We are desperate to see people in our community changed by Jesus. As we continue, we are believing that we will double our impact in our community.
Our priorities for the next 3 years are:
- To have three paid members of staff so that the work can be solidified
- Grow more leaders
- Grow more Grow groups
- Grow our community outreach
- Grow our finances
- Grow our international work
Our History
For 15 years Christian Restoration Manchester has been sharing the love of Jesus with People of all walks of life in word and deed. From Isaac Sany receiving a vision from God in 2006 to share the gospel with people across Greater Manchester, our work is growing, and our heart has remained the same – to see people's lives and communities transformed through the gospel.
Today we work in Higher Blackley, North Manchester and in Uganda reaching and engaging and serving schools, communities and providing support to single mums, widows and sending young people to school in Uganda. We want them to discover the love and hope Jesus offers them for themselves, and for them to become lifelong disciples of Christ.
From the day we gave the vision in 2006 to today. Isaiah 58:12:
Those from among you Shall build the old waste places; You shall raise up the foundations of many generations; And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
