Ethne Europe (Least Reached Peoples in Europe)

Ethne Europe is a network of practitioners and mission leaders who want to see God’s Kingdom extend to all of the least reached people groups in Europe – those who have immigrated or come as refugees and well as to the least reached peoples who are indigenous to Europe. Our goal is to learn from and encourage one another in our various ministries, as well as to raise awareness within the European Church for the tremendous opportunities God has brought to our door-step.

As part of the larger global Ethne network, Ethne Europe also can help challenge and link the Church in Europe to work among least-reached peoples world-wide and to connect with many others working among them.

Ethne is relating to Hope for Europe for the purposes of HOPE•II, and also relates to other networks including Call2All.

Evangelism in a New Age

Millions of Europeans are spiritual seekers, but expect the church to be the last place they will experience spiritual reality. How can we build bridges to this receptive audience? Over the past few years, Steve Hollinghurst and others have been gathering to share insights and experiences, to help equip followers of Jesus to encourage others to join them in their pilgrimage. Steve and others believe we must go further than simply teaching the dangers of non-biblical ideas. We must incarnate the life and love of the One who became like us so that we might become like Him.

Leadership Development

The Leadership Development network of HFE aims to connect players in the field of leadership development in Europe for the purpose of sharing journeys and discoveries, pooling awareness, and building and strengthening personal relationships.
The network aims to stimulate reflection by Christian leaders through brainstorming on trends, needs and strengths, and to explore possibilities for partnership and cooperation.

At HOPE•II a limited group of around 35 men and women will gather to pool awareness of what is already happening in the field of leadership development across Europe, brainstorm on what needs to be developed, and explore ways to work together towards meeting those needs. 

More information about the program and how to prepare for the network's upcoming consultation at Hope-II / Budapest 2011 is available at the dedicated website: www.euleaders.ministries.be .
