In February 2019 the Church of England took a historic decision to have a loving, worshipping Christian community on every significant estate in England. That means offering enhanced support to existing churches and finding ways of planting new churches onto those estates from which they are absent. In 12 months they have been developing partnerships with people and organisations who share the Church’s commitment to renewing church life on the estates. These partnerships include other Christian denominations, mission agencies, Christian resource and training providers and the National Estates Churches Network which provides a support network and resources for estate leaders. During 2020 they will continue to use a range of written, spoken and social platforms to raise the profile of the ministry and attract able leaders to this work.
