Back to Church Sunday

Back to Church Sunday website

From the Bishop of Chelmsford’s recent ad clerum:

“A number of dioceses have been supporting Back to Church Sunday with the advice of the Mission and Parish Development Advisory Group. We have decided to encourage support for this across the diocese. It has been a big success elsewhere and, I am told, is easy to do! This year 30 September has been designated as ‘Back to Church Sunday’. Lots of good resources will be available and Canon Penny Horseman and Barry Hobson have good experience of this initiative from which they will help us all.”

In the Berkshire Archdeaconry 600 people responded on 'Back to Church Sunday' in 2006. See this report from a local church. See also this article on the CofE website from 2006. The Wakefield Diocese has this information and also an ideas package. Derby Diocese has this page.
