Everybody Welcome Online
24 April - 11am. Updated 1 June 10.30am
Everybody Welcome Online has been written by the Ven Bob Jackson (Visiting Fellow St Johns College Durham) and the Revd George Fisher (Retired Director of Mission Lichfield Diocese) as a gift to help all churches and ministers who are going online in these extraordinary times. They have teamed up with the Durham University Centre for Digital Theology and you will
find this document plus lots of other helpful information on their website.
Their second core document, published on May 28th, is about embracing an exciting future.
There are a lot of new online churchgoers - the document tries to work out how many. Then it suggests how to welcome people into church and faith today, and how to plan for a mixed in-person-online church future. Lockdown and online give us a unique opportunity to re-think and re-grow our churches.
Will we take the enormous opportunity we have been given?
