Millions watched the dramatic rescue of the 33 Chilean miners, but only a few will get to hear the amazing story firsthand.

You are invited to come and hear from Jose Henriquez, one of the rescued Chilean miners, known as the "pastor" of the group.

Accompanying him and translating for him will be Alf Cooper, chaplain to the President of Chile and a CMS mission partner, who led the nation of Chile's prayers during the miners' incredible ordeal.

On 5 August 2010, 33 men were trapped 700 metres underground, not knowing when or if they would ever emerge from the darkness.

Who was "the 34th man" with them? Come to this extraordinary event to find out.

Alf and Jose will be speaking at the following locations:
