CHRISTIAN PERFORMING ARTS | STAFFORDSHIRE UK
We are
Manna Family
Manna Family is a ministry born from both a calling and a testimony. We’re a UK-based family of six, sharing the Good News of Jesus through the performing arts. As we walked through the challenges of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Dysautonomia POTS, God gave purpose to our pain. What began as a personal struggle grew into a ministry of story, music, and faith.
We’re more than a theatre company. We’re missionaries, evangelists, artists, and storytellers. Wherever God sends us—to a church, a street corner, a tent mission, or a Sunday service—we use our gifts to open hearts, awaken faith, and point people to Jesus. Every performance is an invitation to encounter His love. We believe the arts, surrendered to God, can carry truth, healing, and revival.
During the week, Jai and Gary serve as volunteer wardens at a Christian retreat house and reach out to our local community. On weekends and at special events, we minister together with our four children as Manna Family.
STOP CHOOSING BETWEEN YOUR
VALUES AND THE PERFORMING ARTS
Like you, we love theatre, but worry about the culture & compromise surrounding performance training.
We believe you can learn the arts, honour God and stand by your values at the same time.
At Manna we beleive in the power of theatre to share the Gospel, and for over 20 years we hvae seen this proven true.
This is more than performing arts. It is a team commited to sharing Jesus with whoever will come and watch!
By joining our cast for 2027 you will be surrounded by fellow beleivers who love the arts and want to use it for the glory of God!
