Back to Church Sunday 2010

26th September 2010

The Diocese of Ely endorses the national invitational initiative - Back To Church Sunday.

Back to Church Sunday is now the largest single local-church invitational initiative in the world. It is based on the simplest and shortest step in evangelism - that we should invite someone we already know to something we love; invite our friend to our church.

Registration for this year’s intiative is to be completed by 15th June 2010.  To do this please access the web site http://www.backtochurch.co.uk and follow the links from the home page.  A resource pack costs £25.00 and we are asking parishes/benefices to fund their own resources.  These will be delivered directly to your nominated delivery address.

The Revd Nick Devenish, a priest in the Diocese and member of the national planning team for Back to Church Sunday, says 'You may have further questions and you are invited you to attend a BTCS briefing morning on Tuesday 22nd June in Ely Cathedral Centre.  Coffee from 9.45am finishing at 12.00pm.  I hope this morning will be a valuable part of our preparation for September and an opportunity to discuss “What makes a welcoming church?”  It will be good for us to share good practice.'

If you have any questions prior to registration contact The Revd Nick Devenish, 01733 248764, backtochurchsunday@mac.com.
