Church of England Launches New 'Practical' Mission Book

Church Army evangelists have challenged the Church of England to re-think the way it engages with young people.

Church Army's David and Alison Booker have edited an important new book launched this week by the Church of England. The book 'Young People and Mission' gives an "honest appraisal" of how the Church relates to young people through worship and mission today.

The book has been described as an "important book" with a "big vision for mission" by Bishop Roger Sainsbury, Chairman of the Centre For Youth Ministry and the National Youth Agency.
