You are amazing! You are alive on planet earth at this moment in history for a reason and your life matters, your life counts and you can Make The Difference! Week in, week out hundreds of people volunteer to Make The Difference on the streets of towns and cities across the UK - be it through street patrols, helping the homeless, feeding the hungry, running a hostel, volunteering in a charity shop... This strand of the work of CNI Network is to celebrate and resource those making the difference.
MakingTheDifference.tvMakingTheDifference.tv is our video channel showcasing ways in which Christians and Christian organisations are making the difference in the lives of others and the wider community.
You can visit the MakingTheDifference.tv web site and our YouTube channel.
