Trustees’ Report

This year has seen strong growth across the K180 ministry, and the development of new initiatives within our stated mission. New partnerships are being established and existing partnerships strengthened. This all contributes to more people being trained, and ultimately more people having opportunity to respond to the Gospel. Whilst our websites will give a good overview of ministry endeavours, here is a snapshot of key ministry developments.

History Makers

By way of brief background, the History Makers (HM) initiative primarily seeks to equip young leaders (18-35) for strong, biblical, missional leadership in the 21[st] century. Designed to run in partnership with local churches, it has been very encouraging to see how God is using this tool to equip young leaders across Europe, as participants spend a week, or weekend, together exploring eight biblical core values for leadership. In essence, our goal is to equip leaders and spread the gospel.

So, HM is primarily aimed at those relatively early in their call to leadership or those who have potential for leadership. We do undertake training for senior leaders from time to time, with the mandate to multiply the training at the heart of such events. This is leadership in any capacity - in church, youth work, para-church ministry, workplace etc. We keep numbers relatively small (around 20-30 per session) so as to hopefully maximise impact.

2023 continued to see an upward growth trend with 20 key in-person training events across Europe, and a verifiable number of 699 leaders trained.

We were also encouraged by the ministry of our teams in the nations bordering Ukraine as training graduates put their training into practice as they exercised leadership in challenging circumstances.

Equipping evangelists

We believe that a key strategy for Gospel impact in Europe is the equipping of ‘emerging’ evangelists, in other words, those early in their call to proclaim the Gospel.

Alongside ongoing trainee opportunities in London, K180 leads specific training for those called as evangelists. This training consists of a two-year modular course designed to train and equip evangelists emerging (i.e. early in their call) into a ministry of proclamation evangelism. The course consists of a core of four separate residential long weekends of training together with additional days, mentoring and opportunities to participate in major evangelistic initiatives. This training started in the UK and now features in 5 other European countries.

2023 was a year of positive growth in Spain and the UK, and one of reconstruction for the German team with a near full leadership team change. The training in Italy is also undergoing change and we are continuing to evaluate training in Iceland (on pause) and also Russia (of course, difficult for the last 12 months.

4

We also continued developing our fledgling association of these country teams who are training evangelists – the ‘European Young Evangelists Network’ (EYE Network). Very encouragingly, this year saw advance planning for new training in at least two new regions of Europe…. The Balkans and also Georgia. We have a strong sense of expectation as the EYE Network continues to take shape as we seek to train evangelists across this continent.

Deeper Investment

This year saw an intentional focus to work on proposals to deepen our investment in selected graduates across all K180 training, plus in the lives of key volunteers. 2024 will see at least two new such initiatives; the launch of an EYE Network ‘Graduate Training Initiative’, plus a new project designed to invest in the marriages of key volunteers.

Unashamed Course

2023 was a year of honing the Unashamed Course materials, with a goal of having the materials ‘print ready’ and to make more widely available. The year closed out with that goal in sight. Training continued throughout the year with consistent positive feedback from church leaders and participants alike.

Our occasional Unashamed+ online training events continued to grow in popularity, with participants drawn from across Europe (interpretation provided into a few languages).

Street Teams

Street ministry has been consistent during 2023, maintaining a sharp focus on proclaiming the Gospel. We continue to support fledgling street teams in London and beyond as we seek to biblically, passionately, and creatively, proclaim the Good News. Overseas mission weekends ran as normal throughout the year, and we were pleased to welcome three visiting teams to London.

The Journey

At the invitation of the London Baptists, K180 continues to work alongside local churches in order to help further develop their evangelistic culture. This includes regular street ministry, training for the church, a 6 month ‘deeper discipleship’ journey for a group of 6, and the launching of evangelistic endeavours. 2023 saw completion of another annual partnership, this time with a West London church.

There are several other ministry endeavours, which can be read about at www.k180.org.

Trustees

We were delighted to welcome Jamie Ochsner to the Board of Trustees in 2023. We believe that Jamie, a business leader based in the USA, will bring a different and fresh dynamic, and look forward to her contribution as we navigate the way ahead.

2024

Strategic plans are in place for all areas of ministry, with development of each, remaining a key focus. We fully expect HM to continue to expand and we are exploring the ‘how to’ of going deeper with the eight core values in each country. The European Young Evangelists Network will see the launch of training in at least two new regions of Europe, plus our biennial ‘Behold Europe’ gathering, which is scheduled for Iceland in June, promises to be a significant milestone as the EYE Network continues to grow.

Additionally, as we seek to invest more deeply in our core team and volunteers, we are planning a ‘strengthening marriage’ initiative, which we will run in partnership with ministry partner JH Outback. This will involve investing in two carefully selected married couples during 2024, enabling them to partake in this marriage retreat and, we trust, be strengthened in their marriage.

Overall, we do foresee strong growth across the ministry in 2024, and as such plan the appointment of 2 new team members as we seek to follow the infrastructure framework for the ministry, agreed in early 2023, to establish a clear organisational pathway to support the growth of K180.
