www.nextwaveonline.com News Celebrating Ten Years In Europe 22 October 2005 In the month of September, Next Wave International marked its tenth year of operations in Europe. TIME magazine once described Europe as possibly the darkest place on earth spiritually speaking. But Mal Fletcher and members of his team have proven that God hasn't finished with Europe yet! The mission to Europe was launched in early September 1995, as Mal and Davina transplanted their young family to Copenhagen, Denmark. Now based in London, the mission has seen some great results in ten years, with city-wide outreach events in major centres, leadership development projects, cutting-edge media programmes and much more. In a recent interview, Mal said: 'Europe has a strong Christian heritage but it is definitely not, in any sense, Christian today. It is secular and considers itself “post-Christian”.' 'There are 250,000 cities, towns and villages in Europe which have no church at all -- of any description!' 'Europe,' he added, 'is as much in need of Christian mission today as our Africa or Southeast Asia. In many ways, it is “pre-Christian” again!' You can read the full interview on this site. If you have been touched by this ministry, in any way -- through TV, the Internet, books, MasterClass, leadership or outreach events or Mal's teaching and preaching -- why not send a special gift to mark this important milestone?
