Praise God!

450 churches took part in Back to Church Sunday this year.  In 2011 we were delighted that Salvation Army Corps across Australia participated in BTCS for the first time.  We also saw a number of minister's associations run BTCS in their locality involving many different denominations. 

It was wonderful to hear the stories of church members across Australia who invited friends and family back to church.  One wrote, "One of the children brought her elderly grandpa to church. He commented to me during the sharing of the peace - with a tear running down his cheek - "This is the best church service I've ever been to. I want to come again"

Thank you to all the churches who responded to our request for feedback: 90% said that BTCS helped in making their church more welcoming and a massive 88% said that they would like to take part in BTCS 2012.  If your church would like to join us next year the suggested date is:

SUNDAY 9TH SEPTEMBER 2012

Don't just take our word for it, listen to those who have already taken part.

'Back to church Sunday' is a fantastic concept and we would encourage more Corps to take the initiative and use it - so simple & effective!"If you want to find out more about BTCS and how you can get involved please contact us.
