How can your church mobilise people?
Our Mobilisation Director, carried out a survey with local church leaders to find out what has helped them mobilise people for mission.
AIM Location : United Kingdom & Europe
Ministry in the United Kingdom & Europe ranges from being a part of mobilising offices, to teaching in Bible colleges to being involved in work among the African Diaspora across the continent.
In 2015 more than one million migrants and refugees crossed into Europe. Many are fleeing the war in Syria, or escaping the aftermath of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, but there has also been a steep increase in the amount of migrants from Africa. Some are moving for economic reasons, some are escaping political oppression, and others are seeking to avoid religious persecution. Whilst illegal migration makes up a large proportion of those migrants entering Europe, Africans are also here as students or as international employees, responding to the demand that Europe has for both skilled and unskilled labour. Ultimately, thousands of Africans are journeying every month, in search of work and a better life.

Se lier d’amitié avec la communauté
Depuis sa fondation au début des années 1800, notre église a toujours cherché à rencontrer et à atteindre la communauté. Nous ne sommes pas une église confortable. Nous sommes une petite assemblée, qui a l’esprit de mission, et tout le monde s’implique. La plupart d’entre nous sommes retraités et nous avons vu beaucoup de changements dans notre région au fil des ans.
La fuite vers la sécurité
Lorsque Joseph* est arrivé à la frontière zambienne après avoir couru et marché toute la nuit, il ne pouvait même pas réfléchir. Son esprit était engourdi. Il priait sans mots, se demandant s’il reverrait un jour sa femme.
