After university and before ordination I worked in marketing/sales, was a regional children’s and youth worker for the Church Pastoral Aid Society (CPAS) and led church based evangelistic missions in the UK.
But believe the Church must retain confidence in telling people about him and am therefore interested in all missional and evangelistic discussions.

Most young adults and teenagers are not raised even nominally Christian, let alone Anglican, in modern day England and the Church of England's evangelistic strategies for bringing in young people must take this into account.
Support for parish choirs - One of many effective evangelistic tools is a brilliant church choir, not only because it attracts people who like quality singing to the congregation, but also because, as many non religious people also enjoy singing in a choir, many priests find themselves quite literally preaching to the choir!
