Preparing for what’s ahead

The Evangelical Alliance has faithfully served the church since 1846. We will steward this organisation well so that we can serve the church for generations to come.
The Evangelical Alliance graduate scheme
Our high-quality graduate training provides valuable experience for talented young adults. Once again, this year, we recruited a cohort of gifted, passionate young adults to serve in varied roles across the Evangelical Alliance.
Each graduate made valuable contributions to the work of the Evangelical Alliance, whilst benefiting from weekly training in leadership, theology, communication, mission, cultural awareness and more. Here’s what Shanley, one of the graduate trainees had to say:
It’s been a wonderful experience… The multifaceted nature of the graduate scheme gave me a greater understanding around public policy and legislation, most significantly, in advocating for environmental care, assisted suicide prevention and drug addiction recovery. The wisdom, worship and devotion to prayer exhibited by Evangelical Alliance members and staff has drawn me closer to God. My confidence to empower believers and share the love of God has grown immensely, alongside analytical and administrative skills in research and writing.
Celebrating 175 years of strengthening the UK church
In 1846, more than 800 evangelical Christians heard and answered God’s call to unite and came together to spark a movement that would spread around the world. The motto of the Evangelical Alliance when it was founded was: “We are one body in Christ”, and unity was the key principle. Like those who shaped our 175-year history, we continue the adventure, making Jesus known in each new generation.
We celebrated this milestone with a commemorative edition of idea magazine exploring our past, present and future, and a special giving campaign, so that we can continue to serve the church for generations to come.
