Church Planting and Urban Mission Course at Bristol

Bristol Baptist College are in the second year of a new Urban Mission and Church Planting course and it is very applied. They have a team exploring mission in three of Bristol’s more marginalised areas including multicultural inner city as well as white marginal estates.

The aim is to develop character and skills for ministry on the streets as well as in church and Christian community. Mike Pears a tutor on the course, say, "We often find ourselves journeying with those for whom life is very hard and who struggle to keep their heads above water. We are finding an enormous sense of privilege in these friendships with an often surprising sense of the Lord’s presence."
