The church is continuing to undergo the biggest change in a generation. Between the 1 and the 12 October we surveyed more than 1,000 individuals and in excess of 450 church leaders with our Changing Church: autumn survey, giving us a fuller picture of how churches are navigating the continually changing landscape, evolving laws and guidance, and the challenge of local and regional lockdowns. You can find our reports below which go into detail of specific areas of the survey. --- --- [ ![Reflections on the way forward](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271%27%20height%3D%271%27%20style%3D%27background%3Atransparent%27%2F%3E) ![Two men looking at phone](https://eauk.org/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,quality=90,width=400,fit=cover/https://cdn.eauk.org/Two-men-looking-at-phone.jpg) ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/reflections-on-the-way-forward) [#### Reflections on the way forward ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/reflections-on-the-way-forward) An invitation to connect and reflect together on the deeper lessons and underlying questions that have emerged during the pandemic [ Find out more ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/reflections-on-the-way-forward) [](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/reflections-on-the-way-forward) [ ![Discipleship, evangelism and community transformation](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271%27%20height%3D%271%27%20style%3D%27background%3Atransparent%27%2F%3E) ![Food bank tomato soup](https://eauk.org/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,quality=90,width=400,fit=cover/https://cdn.eauk.org/food-bank-tomato-soup.jpg) ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/discipleship-evangelism-community-transformation) [#### Discipleship, evangelism and community transformation ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/discipleship-evangelism-community-transformation) Exploring how people are growing in faith, sharing their faith and putting their faith into action during the pandemic [ Find out more ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/discipleship-evangelism-community-transformation) [](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/discipleship-evangelism-community-transformation) [ ![Meetings and money](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271%27%20height%3D%271%27%20style%3D%27background%3Atransparent%27%2F%3E) ![Church online laptop](https://eauk.org/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,quality=90,width=400,fit=cover/https://cdn.eauk.org/church-online-laptop.jpg) ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/meetings-and-money) [#### Meetings and money ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/meetings-and-money) Digging deeper into what is happening with churches regathering and church finances at this time [ Find out more ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/meetings-and-money) [](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/meetings-and-money) [ ![Executive summary](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271%27%20height%3D%271%27%20style%3D%27background%3Atransparent%27%2F%3E) ![Modern church building](https://eauk.org/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,quality=90,width=400,fit=cover/https://cdn.eauk.org/modern-church-building.jpg) ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/executive-summary) [#### Executive summary ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/executive-summary) An overview of results from our second survey of the UK evangelical church during the coronavirus pandemic [ Find out more ](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/executive-summary) [](https://www.eauk.org/what-we-do/initiatives/changing-church/autumn-survey/executive-summary)
