EA ready for
Covid aftermath
The Evangelical Alliance
(EA) has been
busy during
the pandemic and
is now
helping churches gear up for the aftermath,
a statement
from
the organisation says.
A spokesperson for EA writes:
The EA has been looking into the impact
of the pandemic on 20s and 30s, long known
as
the
‘missing generation’
in churches.
One
in
two young adults had attended
a
service
(online or offline) during
the
pandemic, according to a survey by Durham
University last year, but there’s still many
who are unreached. To equip ministry in
this area, the EA launched the new resource
Changing Church – Is the ‘missing generation’
still missing? with accompanying research.
EA: great commission
The Evangelical Alliance launched its Great Commission evangelism website on 26 October to help Christians share their faith, and to show people that Jesus is changing lives in the UK today.
New video stories will be released each week on the site, sharing how people have come to faith across the UK. There will also be inspiring accounts of Christians and churches.
Home for good
The evangelical charity Home for Good,
reported on in en June 2013 was launched
on September 1 as an independent charity
to rescue Britain’s vulnerable children.
With one child every 20 minutes being
taken into care the UK, and another 6,000
children already waiting for adoption, there
appears to be a crisis in child care in the
UK. The Evangelical Alliance is persuaded
that if at least one family per evangelical
church open their homes, this crisis would
be resolved.
