For Immediate Release: 12th February 1999

A general Assembly of Evangelicals will be held in Cardiff in 
November 2001, it was announced today.

The Assembly has been called by the Evangelical Alliance UK, 
which represents over one million Christians in 30 denominations 
throughout the UK.

The Alliance are expecting 4,000 Christians at the event which is 
open to all delegations from churches and all involved in church 
leadership.

The Assembly will be held from 5th - 7th November 2001 at the 
Cardiff International Arena.

Rev Joel Edwards, general director of the Alliance said: "This 
Assembly will help us to refocus the agenda for the Evangelical 
Alliance in the third millennium as we seek to challenge the people 
and governments of our nations to recognise the bad choices we 
have made as a society and offer leadership in new directions 
which are morally and spiritually sound.

The Evangelical Alliance Council, meeting yesterday, considered 
potential programme issues and a steering group is being 
established to develop the full programme and strategy for the 
Assembly.
