From compelling testimonies to economic lectures, faith fuels discussions to career
opportunities, orchestras to contemporary dance, morning devotions, Asian
marching bands, choirs, rappers and light shows, this year promises to be an
inspiring time.
The term ‘Midnight Oil’ speaks of a people tenaciously pursuing their destiny despite
life’s difficulties, and unique to all previous summits new innovative schemes will be
debuted to capture this.

Firstly ‘UNITESHAREGROW.COM’ a special press conference unveiling an
international online platform for Christians to bridge and build; registering their
church, ministry or resource to its directory and thus becoming a relevant referral
bureau for believers.

Secondly the KINGDOM CULTURE: Leadership Breakfast, a time of networking,
exchanges and dialogue for those emerging and seasoned.
Not forgetting the ‘Department of Help + Hope Fair’ an opportunity for young people
to give back and make a positive difference in the community via serving the
homeless, endangered and imprisoned. The fair will also present delegates,
specifically from the BME community, with a plethora of information on various
issues that influence physical and mental health as well as opportunities to sign up
for NHS donor schemes and contribute to the ever‐increasing BME need for the
donation of organs, blood and bone marrow.

With over 1000 In attendance each year it is astounding that the event is upheld
solely through the donations of the general public and contributions from
organisations throughout the world, it stands as a moving tribute to the hidden
potential of a once socially dismissed generation.
Continuing in this pioneering stride headliners this year come from a diverse range
of backgrounds. Crossing racial, cultural and denominational lines whilst merging
musical genres.

Remarkably youth from across every major city within the UK are involved in
someway, be a steward, promoter or musician. Amongst theses exceptional talents
will be world‐renowned speakers such as Bishop John Francis and Bishop Wayne
Malcolm. Influential church leaders such as Ps. Jonny Lee (Elim) Ps. Mark Liburd
(Ruach) Ps. Kunle Oydeji (New Wine) Ps. David Shosanya (London Baptist
Association) Ps. Wayne Brown (NTCG) Ps. Beverley Lawrence (New Harvest) and
Andy Gray (UnitedLife)

Incredible artists such as Ben Cantelon, Mark Beswick, chart topping LZ7, MOBO
award winners and nominees Noel Robinson, Guvna B and Jake Issac. The levites312,
Matthew Allen, Carren Richards, Joseph Perry, Junior Garr, Charlboy, Tehilla and
much more.

Seth now 21 years of age continues to host and provide platforms for the nations
finest artists and speakers as well as undiscovered gems found within the local
community. In light of this, the ‘Good News Choir’ and ‘FLOW’ (a contemporary
dance group) have been created and open for the general pubic to be a part of.
The journey thus far has been amazing, from packing bags to packing auditoriums.
We truly are witnessing something our futures will testify of. For 5 years Midnight Oil
has trumpeted a youth led revolution and this year the revival is for everyone.
