Why do we exist?

We exist to glorify God by:

  • expanding gospel ministry in the North West region;
  • encouraging Bible believing evangelicals to contend for Biblical reformed Christianity within our denominations.

How do we aim to achieve this?

We seek to do this by:

  • multiplying congregations/fellowships;
  • sending people into gospel ministry;
  • promoting apprenticeship schemes;
  • providing a network of support and training for evangelism and gospel ministry;
  • providing information and support related to issues within our denominations.

What difference will this make?

In July 2003 we set ourselves five-year goals which include:

  • starting 15 new congregations/fellowships from within our partnership;
  • sending 50 men and women into gospel ministry from NWP churches;
  • each partnership church having an apprenticeship scheme using the North West Ministry Training Course;
  • a regular programme of events that provide information, support, fellowship and training across the region.


We do not wish to undermine good things going on in our denominations or encourage people to think in a separatist way, but we do want to encourage those with opportunity to be involved in the reformation of our denominations from within their structures.
