ELF Round-up

For the third year in a row, Relational Mission had the privilege of being involved in the week-long European Leaders Forum (ELF), held in May 2021.

The Forum’s annual meeting normally brings together 800 evangelical participants from more than 40 countries and has traditionally been held in Poland. This year, however, the Forum was held online.

The RM team served on the Church Life and Planting Network, which offered a foundational stream covering topics such as Word and Spirit, and an advanced stream which covered subjects such as Empowering the Poor. 35 men and women from 23 different nations signed up across both networks to listen and discuss as part of the interactive, relational seminars.

The team also took part in mentoring people from all around Europe and Mike Betts had the honour of giving the final ELF Plenary session on Healthy Church Life, which you can view below.

Forum of Christian Leaders, the organisers behind ELF, regularly publish excellent resources for Christian leaders. You can explore their content here.
