The Faith That Makes It Happen

Finsbury park
This Friday, 19th September, the documentary: The Faith That Makes It Happen – The History of the Beginning of the Universal Church in the United Kingdom premieres on the Univer Video platform, a production that commemorates 30 years of existence in the country. Featuring surprising reports, exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage never shown before, the documentary invites viewers to discover how a humble beginning grew into a work that became a global reference.

The story unfolds through contributions from Bishop Renato Cardoso, a then pastor and his wife, Cristiane, who recounts the first steps of their mission in London, together with Bishop Edir Macedo, the founder of the Universal Church. The documentary takes viewers on an inspiring journey through decisive moments of this trajectory. From challenges and achievements to stories of overcoming, every detail is presented in an engaging and compelling way.

What began three decades ago in a modest yet determined way has since developed into a solid work that continues to inspire generations and transform lives today. Key figures share how faith spread across British soil and beyond, revealing the reach of a vision that changed destinies.

The Faith That Makes It Happen is more than a historical record: it is a living testimony to the power of faith and obedience to the command of the Lord Jesus to “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15).

An unmissable release on Univer Video.
