Back to Church Sunday
Half a million to be invited ‘Back to Church’.
Churchgoers across the Church of England are set to invite up to half a million people to services on Back to Church Sunday, 27 September, making the event one of the largest co-ordinated evangelism events shared across the Church in recent history.
All 44 dioceses are taking part in the initiative this year, by encouraging churchgoers to invite someone they know who used to attend church to come back on a particular Sunday.
Churches will focus on extending an even warmer welcome than usual on the day, supported by Back to Church Sunday’resources such as special red ‘welcome’ T-shirts and subsidised ‘party packs’ of fairly-traded catering products, produced in partnership withTraidcraft.
Up to 16,000 Church of England churches could be taking part, joining congregations from Churches Together in Scotland, the Church in Wales, Baptist, Methodist and United Reformed churches nationwide, Elim Pentecostal churches and Anglican churches in Australia, Argentina, New Zealand and Canada.
Please look out for more details later in the summer.
