RAISING GENERATIONS

Our dedicated children’s and youth ministry stream




 

What is the Spirit saying to the Church at this significant moment in history?

Join us back in Harrogate next spring as we gather as leaders, staff teams & volunteers from across the country to explore what it means to be Church for a changing world.

Together with Raising Generations – an integrated programme to equip, inspire & encourage all those serving in kids’ and youth ministry – we’ll explore how we become more adaptive & resilient as leaders – and how we embrace opportunities to become more apostolic, confident & creative.

TESTIMONIES

  • 'I'm a children's leader and at the conference I felt closer to God than I have for years, and encouraged that he has set me on this path and can use my weaknesses for His glory. God spoke clearly to me through many of the speakers, and confirmed what I thought He was already saying to me about my personal faith and my ministry. I felt encouraged and humbled in equal measure! I fell in love with the Spirit all over again.'

    Millie
  • 'I came to the conference feeling worn out, dry, cynical, & disengaged. When Glenn Packiam pointed to the words of Jesus asking, “Do you love me?” something important shifted. I realised I'd been pushing on in my own strength, neglecting my Bible reading and prayer time. Simply put, I’d run out of fuel. So from now on it’s Jesus first. Before the planning. Before the meetings. Before everything. Thank you for the experience of the last few days. I badly needed it!'

    Richard
  • 'God met with me at the conference in so many ways. He gave me clarity over a discernment time I'm in and made the next stages clear. He also showed me the areas I need to change within me, and filled me afresh with His Spirit so I've returned passionate and fired up for all He is doing in my current context. I found each and every session transformational in a way that I've never experienced before.'
