Church Army, Premier Radio Launch Mission Resource for Churches

Church Army, in partnership with Premier Christian Radio, has launched a new drive to aid churches in more effective mission.

A series of 15 advisory-resources has been launched by the two Christian organisations, put together by Church Army evangelists. The resources will be in an audio format to help churches develop an effective Christian presence in their community.

Churches have been invited to use the tips, developed as part of Church Army’s ‘Get Out More’ campaign, to make contacts with people who have little or no interest in the church.

Church Army is a society of evangelists linked to the Anglican Church but working outside church buildings to enable people to come to a living faith in Jesus Christ.
