Huddles

We are a small, dynamic missional HTB church, with linked schools, in a UK “most deprived” ward. 35 first languages exist in 51% of our two linked schools and community.

In this setting we feel deeply called to become an intercultural church (From Revelation 7:9). In the last year the ICUK huddle has brilliantly equipped and supported transformation, with expertise, wisdom and spiritually. As a result, we are seeing real change from almost 100% white British, to a church with many new ethnic minority members of the congregation form all over the world. Although a small church, we have church planted in the last year and the congregation has doubled in the last 6 months since then. ICUK’s support and shared wisdom from the huddle has been pivotal in the intercultural changes that have taken place. I thank my God every time I remember them for their partnership in the gospel. It’s a huge Kingdom impact.

Having a chance to regularly talk with other leaders wrestling with intercultural church is a real blessing. After each huddle I come away challenged and encouraged by fellow practitioners.

The huddle groups provide a real opportunity to share information and practice and learn from each other.

The mutual support I’ve found in our huddle has been a fantastic help to me as I’ve worked to equip our church for a more intentional expression of our interculturality. Thank you, friends!
