What is Square Mile?
Square Mile is an Evangelical Alliance initiative which aims to catalyse and equip Christians to take a truly integrated approach to mission, expressed in four dimensions:
| Mercy: | demonstrating God's compassion to the poor |
| Influence: | being salt and light in the public life of the community |
| Life Discipleship: | equipping Christians for missional living as workers & neighbours |
| Evangelism: | faithful and relevant communication of the gospel |
We hope that this website will help you:
- Learn about four-dimensional mission and be challenged in your thinking
- Connect with a diverse range of organisations and networks which exist to help you and your church
- Discover resources to equip you in mission
- Be inspired by stories of grassroots Christians making an impact.

New term, new challenge!
Plan to transform your Square Mile this September along with churches up and down the UK. Choose one or more level:
- YOU: Use the Square Mile journal on daily basis to read, reflect and take action!
- YOUR SMALL GROUP: Work through the four thought-provoking sessions in your home group or youth group.
- YOUR CHURCH: Use the four themed PowerPoint presentations in your church and inspire your whole congregation to take action.
A fantastic initiative!

Square Mile is a powerful resource to equip the whole church to take the whole gospel to the whole world
- David Westlake, Tearfund
Square Mile is brilliantly produced and its challenge is crystal clear: that Christian faith demands to be into action. This is the kind of faith Jesus call us to and this is the kind of faith that is urgently needed in local communities in the UK today
- Jon Kuhrt, Livability
The question, 'would anyone in your community notice if your church ceased to exist?', is one of the most important questions a church can ask itself. An inordinate amount of work has been put into making sure the Square Mile course helps churches say 'yes' and if you take your church through it, you won't regret it.
- Ruth Valerio, Author, L is for Lifestyle
Square Mile is straightforward enough to be easily comprehensible but has enough depth to take people from where they are and go somewhere quite a good deal further. An excellent resource for the local church and the local community
- Tom Wright, Bishop of Durham
We are called as followers of Christ to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly; by getting involved with Square Mile, we can begin to live out that call effectively
- Tim Hughes, Holy Trinty Brompton
