Do you know that in 1700, less than 2% of the world’s population lived in urban places? About 56% of the world’s people now live in urban areas. According to UN, by 2050, 7 out of 10 persons on earth will be in the cities. Cities are melting pots of cultures, languages, and religions. The migrations keep going unnoticed- Unreached Peoples growing in cities. It’s time to position ourselves to maximise the gains of urbanisation.

Nigeria’s rapid urbanization presents both significant challenges and exciting opportunities for mission work and the growth of the church. With over 50% of the population now residing in urban areas, and this number projected to grow considerably in the coming years, the need to effectively reach and engage urban populations with the gospel is paramount.

Following the gains, the stirred burdens and commitments made at the Nigeria Executive Missions Congress (NIMEC 2023), the urgency of the matter demands ongoing discussion, strategic planning, and actionable processes, thus the call for a post conference webinar.

This virtual gathering will provide an opportunity for the Nigeria Church and Missions community to delve deeper into the complexities of urban ministry, identifying challenges and opportunities, share insights, and collaboratively develop actionable processes that can be implemented at both the national and local levels.
