Christian leaders gather to discuss mission in today’s ‘post-Christian’ Europe

In Wisla (Poland) the European Leadership Forum conference is underway, the annual space where leaders of organisations, churches and experts in all kinds of cultural fields meet for networking and training on specific topics.

John Dickson, communicator in Australia, opened the first evening by calling for a "cheerful confidence to stand up for Christ" in the public arena while seeking a “cheerful humility that is ready to lose”, pointing to the fact that the Christian message includes death but ends in resurrection.

René Breuel, an evangelical pastor in Rome (Italy) is expounding the message of Revelation from the Bible with a special interest in its application to the temptations and challenges the church in Europe is facing today.

The ELF 2024 has broken attendance records, largely due to a significant increase in the number of young participants. Of the over 800 coming from 51 countries, the largest group are Eastern Europeans.

The organisation also made an effort to bring “hand-picked Christian leaders” from Asia and other parts of the world to the conference, with the aim of provoking dialogues that will contribute to greater collaboration, sharing of ideas and resources, as well as future mission strategies.

Evangelical Focus is presenting its work at the “Expo” of entities. We are seeking synergies for the development of this journalistic project from and for Europe.
