In this report we capture over 2000 participant's views on the health of ministry amongst children, youth and families in their respective churches and locations. As we share these research findings, we want them to prompt reflection on how existing ministry can be enhanced, to spark new ways of thinking, and to foster more dialogue and greater collaborations.
You can download the report from our Taking the Pulse feature page, where you can also access further resources including a series of live webinar sessions on each of the reports themes.
