Eleven new churches have affiliated to the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) in the first three months of 2023, the organisation says.
Among the 11 is Emmanuel Church Northstowe, which was planted in 2018 to reach a new town near Cambridge where 10,000 homes are planned. The plant was supported by five Cambridge churches, including FIEC, Anglican and Presbyterian. It is led by Josh Montero and has a regular congregation of about 125.
Another is Centre Church, Droitwich, which was planted by Woodgreen Church, Worcester, in this spa town to the southwest of Birmingham in 2022. It is led by Ben Putt and already has a congregation of 65 adults and 23 children. They held a first baptism last year.
