Lay-led Planting

Myriad inspires and serves everyday people to form new church communities

We are supporting the planting of thousands of new, predominantly lay-led, Church of England churches in the next ten years, partnering with other church networks to inspire similar movement and witness the re-evangelisation of our nation.

We resource training and support, bring together the learning from different networks and act as a catalyst and thought partner for dioceses and national church leaders to inspire change within the church.

We’re inviting you to join us in this exciting adventure of faith. We don’t have all the answers but we are gripped by the call of God to his Church. We’re excited to explore what it means to be a mixed ecology church, which is Christ-centred and Jesus-shaped.

Myriad Pathway

We are offering lay church planters the opportunity to journey together on a learning pathway, designed to equip them over two and a half years with the tools needed to plant and establish new church communities.

Get involved with Myriad Prayer

Myriad has at its heart a call to prayer – a call to pray for the re-evangelisation of the nation through the Church. Prayer is at the centre of our team rhythms and the support we provide to church planters. This ensures that the work of Myriad flows from, is energised by, and is facilitated through prayer.
