From The Chairman
Carlisle Diocesan Evangelical Fellowship seeks to promote unity and friendship amongst evangelicals
in
the Diocese of Carlisle
in our shared witness to the good news of Jesus Christ. Through our fellowship
we seek to equip
and encourage God's people for mission and ministry as we express a growing
partnership in the gospel.
We seek to share the best of our evangelical convictions with the wider
church,
providing fellowship
in prayer and support across the church traditions of our diocese.
As we engage with the diocesan vision for growth we will
aim to invite speakers to our meetings who
will challenge and inspire us all in our discipleship and ministry. Our meetings
and events are open to all
and designed to be of benefit to all in our diocese. We value your prayers as we
seek to serve the cause
of Christ in word and action.
Who are we?

evangelical Anglicans who live or work in Carlisle Diocese.

wider church.
