Welcome Churches launch the Hospitality Pledge

Hospitality towards strangers and those in need is a defining feature of the Christian life. The theme runs through the canon of Scripture and provides a clear call to love and welcome others. 

However it is not straightforward. From childhood we are primed to fear strangers, our divided communities reinforce the cultural barriers and the global pandemic has forced us to keep our distance. We have spent much of the last two years closing our doors to others. The Hospitality Pledge is an attempt to revive, encourage and inspire a national surge in welcoming. It is a commitment to making 2022 a year of Christian hospitality.

Would you consider signing up to the pledge? You can find out all about what is involved here.
