Gospel Rock in Oldham town centre

More than 100 people took to the streets of Oldham on Saturday to celebrate the summer festival of Gospel Rock.

From noon at Parliament Square, crowds gathered to listen to music, dance, sing - and have a good time.

The event, sponsored by Nando's, was hosted by Gospel Rock Ministries.

Five soul singers, a dance group, and two guests speakers were there - plus there were also two testimonies.

Joseph Belibi from Gospel Rock Ministries told the Oldham Chronicle that the event was a great success.

He said: "Gospel Rock is about Good News and powerful music that brings positivity and peoples together, messages that reveals Christ, Talents and Transforms lives."
