West Bowling in Bradford is in the top 2% of most deprived estates, with 25% of children living below the poverty line. St Stephen’s Church in West Bowling have had an Eden Team working alongside them since 2019.
Eden Teams live intentionally and sacrificially amongst the 10% most deprived neighbourhoods across the UK, seeking to bring transformation and hope, supporting their partner churches in youth ministry, community projects, gospel outreach and discipleship, all while living within the community and doing life with their neighbours.
This summer, Luke Owens (pictured above) joined them as the new Eden Team Leader

Really looking forward to these Ideas exchanges next week.
We will be thinking about:
Why is evangelical Anglican ministry so often 'middle class'?
What are the particular challenges of ministry in more deprived communities?
How can we develop positive relationships between local churches?
How might all churches become more diverse?
