A LAND OF CULTURE & CHANGES

England is the home of the Mayflower, the mighty Spitfire, and the Mini...

Shakespeare, Jane Austen, J.R.R. Tolkien, and C.S. Lewis...

Wimbledon (tennis) and Wembley (football).

England is a different nation now than it used to be. Once the land of the Pilgrim Fathers and Charles Spurgeon, it is now the land of Harry Potter and spiritual darkness...

from the land of the King James Bible...to the future king who calls himself the "Defender of Faith."

"The prince, who will become Supreme Governor of the Church of England when he becomes king, has already said that he wants to be Defender of Faith - not Defender of the Faith - when he accedes to the throne."
(The Daily Telegraph, June 3, 2006)


BMW IN ENGLAND

Why England?

  • Decline in Church Attendance: In 2005 the number of people attending church on any given Sunday was 6.8% of the population. It is projected by 2020 to be at only 4.4%
  • Rise in Immorality: England has the highest number of teenage pregnancies in all of Europe.
  • Other Trends: Post modernism prevails and there are no moral absolutes.
    Christianity is marginalized and Islam is on the march.

Ministry Strategy

The BMW England Team has a strategy to reach East Anglia with the gospel of Jesus Christ. To do this, the team is doing evangelism, church planting and church restoration ministries. In this region there are a number of localities with no active evangelistic witness. Where there are churches, attendance is small and Bible teaching is limited. The team members are standing in the gap, making a difference in the communities where they minister. They have a long-term goal to see a Bible-teaching, Bible-believing, witnessing congregation in every strategic community in East Anglia. Will you help!! Click map to enlarge

Perhaps God is calling you to England. Language is not a barrier since we share the same mother tongue. There are opportunities for short -term and long-term workers:

  • Children's work
  • Youth work
  • Church Planting
  • Practical skills (painting, building, repairs, computer skills, and many more)

Is God leading you to consider England? Please contact Mark Chandler (BMW's Area Director of England) at mchandler@biblicalministries.org.
