Welcome

What an awesome opportunity we have to work together in partnership, and see God's Kingdom firmly established throughout the globe. The church of the 21st Century is packed with incredible potential, and our vision is to see God’s people empowered and released to impact the cities and nations of the earth.

The Evangelical Network (TEN) is an association of LGBT affirming evangelical ministries and individuals. TEN’s mission is focused on the LGBT community and its allies to: 

• Provide a safe place for LGBT people to discover and rediscover Christianity 
• Bring together people with a shared faith to worship, evangelize and disciple 
• Give people from all different backgrounds an opportunity to be educated about Homosexuality and Christianity 
• Afford ministry and growth opportunities to people in the LGBT community
• Hold an annual conference open to all that is designed for networking, fellowship, education and worship
• Offer a safe place for LGBT people and the evangelical church community to dialogue
• Be a voice in the public and media that supports the LGBT community and its struggles for equality, and to speak out against negative stereotypes

This mission is accomplished through an affiliation of churches, ministries and individuals working together.

Churches are assemblies of believers who regularly assemble together for prayer, praise, worship, breaking bread, fellowship, study of the scriptures and outreach.

A ministry is a group or outreach not classified as a local church. A ministry has its own adopted Bylaws, and statement of purpose and mission.
