Listening to God. Working Together. Pursuing Transformation.

Love Black Country is an area wide Christian network that seeks to help equip the church to reach the people of the Black Country for Christ and see our communities transformed. Sometimes/also known as The Black Country Net, our target is to reach the 1.2 million people of the Black Country who do not yet know Christ, and in doing so, seeing our communities transformed as the King Himself takes residence here and builds His Kingdom amongst us. Our strategy (how we will seek to fulfil the purpose)

§ By modelling Kingdom values and relationships
§ By connecting church leaders, church members and organisations throughout the Black Country
§ By gathering to pray, proclaim and celebrate
§ By equipping and resourcing the church
§ By inspiring towards evangelism through strategies and events. Our Values (who we are and what we stand for)

§ We will prefer each other.
§ We will speak well of each other in public and in private. Functional/ Corporate Values (how our network operates)
