Don't forget to book up to learn all about the new regional networks our friends at Messy Church-BRF are starting so you know how to join your region ☺️

You’re not doing Messy Church alone!

Messy Church can be brilliant, joyful, chaotic, exhausting, inspiring… sometimes all in the same afternoon! 😂

That’s why we’re really looking forward to our first-ever Regional Team gatherings this November.

It’s a chance to step away from the planning for a little while and:
- share what’s working (and what isn’t!)
- pick up new ideas
- pray with others
- encourage and be encouraged
- meet other Messy Church teams in your region

Sometimes the best thing you can hear is, “Oh yes, we’ve had that happen too!”

Book now for Tuesday 3 November, 7.30 – 9.00 pm https://www.brfresources.org.uk/collections/messy-church-events/products/messy-church-regional-team-gathering-3-november-2026

This , we join with Restored in raising awareness of domestic abuse and standing with survivors. We’re proud to partner with Restored in helping to equip corps and local expressions to respond well to those affected by domestic abuse. Through the Restored Beacon Church network, corps across the UKIT are and are becoming beacons of hope, committed to creating safe, supportive and compassionate communities.

Please take a moment to read the post below as we work together to increase awareness, stand with survivors and help create a future free from fear and abuse.

Join an upcoming Messy Church Regional Gathering online to hear all about their new Regional Networks 😊

Something new is happening for Messy Church!

This November, we’re hosting our very first online Regional Team Gatherings and we’d love you to join us!

We’ve heard again and again how much Messy Church leaders value opportunities to connect with others who just ‘get it’.

These first Regional Team Gatherings are a chance to:
- meet other Messy Church leaders and teams in your region
- pray together
- share ideas and inspiration
- talk about the joys (and challenges!) of Messy Church
- encourage one another
- be part of shaping this new regional network

Whether you’ve been part of Messy Church for years, or you’re just getting started, you’re very welcome. This is the beginning of something we hope will grow into a wonderful network of local relationships, support and shared learning to help Messy Churches across the country to flourish. Come along, bring your stories, bring your questions, and come ready to meet some fellow LOCAL Messy Church people!

Let's join in welcoming Commissioner Patti Niemand as she takes up her appointment as World Secretary for Women’s Ministries.

We are delighted to extend a warm welcome to Commissioner Patti Niemand as she takes up her appointment as World Secretary for Women’s Ministries. We thank God for her faithful leadership and service, and look forward to the impact of her ministry to women in her new role.

As Commissioner Patti begins this new chapter, we invite you to join us in praying for God’s wisdom, strength and guidance to be upon her. May she be encouraged and equipped for all that lies ahead as she serves women around the world and advances the mission of The Salvation Army through this new appointment.
