Preparing for ‘the new normal’
Visit our page ‘Preparing for the re-opening of church buildings’ for resources to help churches as they consider how and when their buildings may carefully re-open.
Theological resources
As countries continue to shut down and find coping mechanisms, both for public health services and people’s rhythm of life, there are all sorts of theological questions being asked. A range of missional and theological reflections have been collated by Rev Ben Aldous, our Principal Officer for Mission and Evangelism.

We are offering our prayers for this ongoing situation, along with Christians all over our nation and our world at this time. Please visit our Prayer resources page to access a range of prayer resources from various churches.
