Church of England unveils strategy to help its rural churches thrive
by Peter Crumpler, Christian Today:
The Church of England has launched a 10-point strategy to help its thousands of rural churches survive and thrive.
Many provided cool sanctuaries during the recent record-breaking temperatures – but they have the potential to play a much more strategic community role.
The CofE has published ‘How Village Churches Thrive,’ a practical guide to help the churches – many of them historic listed buildings with small congregations – have a sustainable future.
The strategy sets out 10 key areas “where applying relatively small changes can make a big difference to the revitalisation, recovery and renewal of our village churches, amplifying the efforts that may well be happening already.”
