Mission Europe 2010
Walnut Creek Community Church is committed to the Great Commission and going out to the Nations with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
For the past 8 years, we have been sending mission teams to Europe, a now Post-Christian Culture. In most countries in Europe, there are less than 2% Evangelical Christians. Belief in God is at an all-time low.
Applications for the 2010 mission trip are now available!

Why Europe?
Europe is now considered Post-Christian. It is our prayer that God would use His people to spark a Revival in Europe. This year we will be once again sending teams to Cork, Ireland and Barcelona, Spain. As well as two other possible locations to be determined.
Consider the following quotes about the current culture in Europe:
ââĤa religious and cultural vacuum was created at the heart of European civilization. The collapse of faith in its own values has, not surprisingly, led to a demographic collapse because a civilization that no longer believes in its own future also rejects procreation. Today, a new religion and culture is supplanting the old one. There is little one can do about it, but hope for a miracle.”
“In Europe a secularized post-Christian culture is facing a Muslim one. The secularized culture is hedonist and values only its present life, because it does not believe in an afterlife. This is why it will surrender when threatened with death because life is the only thing it has to lose. This is why it will accept submission without fighting for its freedom. Nobody fights for the flag of hedonism, not even the hedonists themselves.”
“...America, unlike secular Europe, has remained rooted to a larger extent in traditional Christian values. I do not doubt that if these values continue to decline in the U.S., American culture will collapse as European culture and civilisation have collapsed. However, America can learn from the impending European catastrophe, and avoid a similar fate.” â Brussels Journal Report
