TFH is a network of individuals, church leaders and a family of churches in the Liverpool city region that share certain values and priorities. We are evangelical in our view of scripture, and evangelistic in our view of the mission of the church. In fact it is the evangel, the gospel, which unites us. We believe in a gospel that:
TFH is a way of expressing our one-ness around these values and priorities. We may vary in how we do this, in the expressions of the gospel, but we are all motivated by a love for God that ‘compels us to go with the gospel.’
We are the sum of our constituent parts (in fact with God we are more than that!).
We are literally ‘together for the harvest’.
Imagine what the Liverpool City Region would look like in 10 years time if every man woman and child had experienced a vibrant expression of the gospel – something they saw demonstrated in our lives and relationships; but had also heard and understood, a message of hope for their lives.
Imagine our neighbourhoods, our families, our workplaces transformed with changed lives. Imagine tens of thousands of people coming to faith, affecting those around them, and infecting the culture of our city region.
That, is our vision.
To support and equip churches to mobilise their members into mission, to reach every man, woman and child with the gospel, such that we see gospel saturation and transformation of our city region
Prayer happens in a variety of ways in the different boroughs – among leaders, in churches, and regionally when Christians from all across the 6 boroughs are invited to a termly prayer and worship gathering. We are also committed to encouraging everyone to pray for the street in which they live, partnering with Neighbourhood Prayer Network.

We work with church leaders to help them establish an integrated pathway for their churches, to take people from not yet Christians, to disciples, to disciple makers.
Our Evangelism Strategy Team contributes to this process by helping equip members in missional confidence. We create, curate and connect people to a variety of tools, vehicles and resources.

Through our Church Planting Coalition we are supporting churches from all backgrounds, geographies, and ethnicities who want to plant new missional expressions of church.
This could include turning existing small groups inside out, starting microchurches / house churches, planting neighbourhood congregations, and establishing city-wide resource churches. Our aim is to see one missional expression of church for every thousand people. 1 in 1000.

Through joining the dots of the various networks who are developing social action and justice projects, we encourage new projects to start and best practice to be applied. Through these networks we are able to help avoid duplication and competition. We know that the gospel must be both seen in action, felt where needs exist, and be heard clearly so that people can respond to it.

We know that church leaders are under huge pressures, and this affects both physical and mental health. We will create safe contexts and opportunities for leaders to process their stresses and pressures and connect them to support resources so they can be in the race for the long haul.
