Thank you. This was a collaboration between @theos & @churchurbanfund. The impact on the use of #GrowingGood resources which came into being as a result of this report, is really impressive. Mission through social action and lifelong learning as disciples of Jesus transforms.
"To see the church grow here might involve sacrificial strategic decisions to keep churches open in places where they can’t afford to be, or where they don’t have many people..." (From @hannahmerich v good "Growing Good" report) theosthinktank.co.uk/cmsfile…

We are loving hearing how #GrowingGood has helped shape many church's learning and serving ministries. Over 1.600 people from many denominations, being good news in their communities. Bishop Lynne describes this as a phenomenon, we @churchurbanfund agree. Join the movement!
“CUF planned a resource, but God has turned it into a phenomenon. #GrowingGood is biblically rooted & enabling of the gifts & participation of all, as well as being supportive of churches’ vision to think longer-term” Thank you @LynneCullens buff.ly/4aDmZZn
