Now a melting pot for the world again, a new generation of Europeans is seeking - and finding - hope. OM is at the forefront of this new wave.
For centuries, Europe was the driving force in world mission even as its cultures drifted from Biblical faith. Today new life is being injected into the European church, restoring hope as OM teams and local churches demonstrate and proclaim Jesus to native European and immigrant alike.
The ruins of ancient churches symbolise a continent that has turned away from Christ. We work to rebuild lives and raise up a generation established on a strong foundation and filled with hope in Jesus.
Once Upon a Time
Once, European Christians told the world about Jesus. Today’s “Christian” Europe is spiritually bankrupt. The ruins of ancient churches symbolise a continent that has turned away from Christ.
Emptiness
Prosperous Europeans may seem content. But rising suicide rates, the desperate search for alternative spiritualities and the growth of other religions demonstrate the emptiness behind the façade.
Throughout Europe, nations are battling against the effects of crime, drugs and alcohol abuse while in places such as Bosnia, Kosovo and Ukraine whole communities have been shattered by war and poverty.
Restoring Hope
Yet, in the midst of brokenness, God is restoring hope to Europe. Across the continent OM teams are living out the reality of the Gospel as they provide practical help, build friendships and share truth.
Together with the European church, OM is transforming lives and communities in more than 30 nations by caring for the unwanted, loving Muslims, empowering the next generations, reawakening the religious and challenging the secular.
