Churches

Our heart is to help revitalise, restore and grow God’s Church in Europe.

This short-term mission brings delegates from around the world and the UK together for a two-part conference

Part 1 – Evangelism Training online prior to arrival

Part 2 – Outreach, Mission, serving at local churches.

Host:

Arise is looking for hosting churches from across the UK to host an Arise team of between 6-8 evangelists. These teams will:

1. Serve your church programme strategies and work with your church’s values in reaching out to your community. Some of the team members will have specific gifts (sports, youth, music, etc) which can be used.

2. Give you an opportunity to kick start a new outreach program in your community that church members can join in with and continue into the future!

Along with Arise teams we are seeking to bring in two international Christian performers who host churches will be able to use over the mission week.

Rae Chung Lim

Rae-Chung Lim: a balloon and bubble artist, performed in 30 countries around the world

Andy Kim

Andrew Y Kim, a Yale University graduate cellist, performed in many countries as well as in all States of USA.

Send:

Members from your own church will also have the opportunity to be trained in practical evangelism methods and discipleship, alongside delegates from around the world. This means that teams are ready to hit the ground running during the outreach week.

Our prayer is that your team will come back to you trained and passionate to carry on the work the Arise team has started!

Expectations for Hosting a Team

If your church would like to host a team, you will be required

To send delegates to the Arise orientation. In order to make it easier for your church, we charge delegates from hosting churches a reduced fee of £100 instead of the full fee of £300.
To provide a simple homestay accommodation for the guest delegates.
To provide simple meals for your team members.
To provide transport to pick up your team members from the orientation camp and to bring them back there.
To prepare the outreach plan and daily schedule for the team. If you require it, Amnos can provide you with a sample weekly outreach schedule.
To mobilize your church members to join outreach whenever possible in order to maximize outreach effort

"Hosting an Arise team over the last few years has helped begin the mobilisation of our church family into getting out into the community and making disciples. The teams that have partnered with us have been true servants of the Gospel, laying the foundation for kingdom ministry through prayer and connecting with individuals. We are so so thankful for this work."

Ps Stephen Walker-Williams
Gold Hill Baptist Church, Pastor Team-Leader

"Before discovering Arise our gospel outreach was haphazard, disjointed, and without clear objective. The Arise experience has taught us to evangelise with structure, purpose and consistency. The training helped us gain competence in explaining the gospel, confidence to share our faith and more compassion for lost souls. The outreach has been a great catalyst to unite and mobilise our church to reach our neighbours for Christ."

Rev Keith Mitchell,
Merton Park Baptist Church
