WALKING TOGETHER
TO SHARE THE
DYNAMIC GOSPEL IN A NEW EUROPE
Europe is perhaps the greatest challenge
for Christian mission today
Lausanne Europe 20/21 seeks to address that challenge
Announcing new leadership for Lausanne Europe
With Jim Memory and Usha Reifsnider at the helm,
Lausanne Europe gets a dynamic leadership team,
as diverse as the continent itself.
