How is your congregation engaged with the remit of Faith in Action? (see below) Are you doing something that could deserve a Faith in Action award?

If you have an activity / project that is a great example please send either a 5 minute video or 500 words description and pictures to: Jo Clare-Young training@urceastern.org.uk

Faith In Action Forum relates closely to the GA Mission Committee and the Joint Public Issues Team.

It endeavours to relate national and global issues to the local and provide a network for local issues to be shared within the Synod.

• to encourage initiatives in rural, suburban and urban settings that support growth, evangelism and social engagement;
• to encourage Child Friendly Church Awards, or similar denomination initiatives;
• to raise awareness and encourage reflection on matters of peace and justice for the whole of creation, and healing and reconciliation;
• to encourage awareness of international and World Church issues;
• to set the agenda for Church in Society matters and advise the Synod Officers accordingly.
