Jeremy has produced a stunning series called 'The Human One', following thirty events in Jesus' life (further details are available on his website). Many thanks to the students involved in this episode: Olivia, Hubert, Shekinah and Eliza.

Effatha is an initiative of 40 days of Eucharistic Adoration from the London prayer-group Cenacle and Fr Antonio Diez de Medina CFR. Effatha was born in November 2021 as a response to the Covid pandemic lockdown and was repeated in March 2022 at the start of the Russia-Ukraine war. This year Effatha Revival comes from Derry in Northern Ireland, where Fr Antonio is now based. The conviction that it is time for another adoration campaign came from prayer, dialogue and current world circumstances.

Effatha and the Radio Maria Community encourage you to join them in prayer for these 40 days of adoration! Find more information here: https://effatha.live/
