sden: the Suffolk Evangelical Diocesan Network

Connecting and encouraging evangelical Christians across the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich

sden exists to connect and encourage evangelical leaders and church members across the Diocese of Edmundsbury and Ipswich, and to engage with grace and truth on their behalf

Part of a wider network

First set up in 1960 by evangelical theologian and church leader John Stott, to provide a collective evangelical voice in the Church of England, the Church of England Evangelical Council (CEEC) consists of representatives from the College of Bishops and General Synod, from theological colleges, mission societies, networks and local associations like ours.

‘We long to see Church of England churches thrive and grow, proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ in truth and love, standing together on strong biblical foundations’ – from the CEEC website.
