Evangelicals in Wales mark encouragements

The Evangelical Movement of Wales (EMW) says it has been humbled by the opportunities for gospel work thrown up by the pandemic.

General Secretary Mark Thomas says: ‘The limitations on meeting together have made us go back to basics and reassess what really matters – prayer, God’s word, fellowship and evangelism’.

The EMW says that over the past 12 months it has sent out 400,000 emails, made 125 hymns available for church singing, undertaken three prayer campaigns, had 236,861 viewers of its video channels and run two weeks of lectures for theological students.

52 videos

In addition, the movement says it has provided 52 videos of talks and training sessions, 75 online meetings for church leaders, 40 videos for children and young people and launched four new websites.

Moreover, it sold 57,000 copies of their Christmas Ask magazine, sold 5,000 other magazines and published three books.
