Fresh expressions of church

"It's official: at least 1,000 fresh expressions (of church) in the
Church of England" and a similar number in the Methodist Church.

"The first ever statistical analysis of fresh expressions of church
has concluded that there are at least 1,000 CofE fresh expressions or
new congregations across the country. Around 30,000 people attend
fresh expressions each month who don't attend traditional regular
services, equating to an average of around 40 people per participating
parish exploring new forms of church - the statistical equivalent of
an additional diocese. Almost all dioceses have reported fresh
expressions or new congregations with over half of these initiatives
aimed at families with young children.

"There are an estimated 1,000 fresh expressions within the Methodist
Church."
