FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
mission-net – Moving Forward On Every Front
With a confirmed theme, a new website and contact people in 30 countries, mission-net – the April 2009 mission mobilising event – is truly moving forward.
Commissioned by the European Evangelical Missionary Alliance and European Evangelical Alliance, mission-net is a pan-European event seeking to promote a missional lifestyle among young European Christians. Confirmed for April 8th to 13th 2009 at the Weser-Ems-Halle in Oldenburg, Germany, first details of the theme and booking arrangements are being released.
Titled For Heaven’s Sake, the Easter Weekend programme will ask what the Biblical call to mission means in today’s world. Keynote speakers, seminars and small group discussions are designed to further bring alive the theme of mission-net. There will also be opportunity for participants to speak to representatives from Christian organisations and join short-term outreaches following the event.
Up to date programme information and booking details can be found on the newly launched mission-net website – www.mission-net.org . Aimed at the 16-30 age group, onsite catering and accommodation at Weser-Ems-Halle is planned to keep costs below Euro250 per person (excluding transport). The venue will be open for arrivals from 10am on Wednesday 8th of April 2009, with the first meeting scheduled that evening. Proceedings will end the evening of Sunday 13th April and participants have until 10am the following day to depart.
The mission-net network of national mobilisers now extends to over 30 European countries, including Ireland, Albania and Estonia. Representatives for other nations are still needed. Serving as local points of contact for the event, national mobilisers can also supply a range of promotional and publicity material. The European Evangelical Missionary Alliance and European Evangelical Alliance hope that this partnership and organisational structure will pave the way for similar mission-net events every two years.
