Our cities often have some of the biggest and most vibrant churches in the UK. Yet these cities are also centres of violence, isolation and despair. Faced with these challenges, what can the church do?
Livability Community Mission and Faith Action believe that the church has a unique role to play in service and leadership to its local community - to bear powerful witness in both word and deed of God’s awesome power and love.
Keynote speakers: Revd Nims Obunge (Freedom’s Ark Church and the Peace Alliance) Revd Jonathan Oloyede (Glory House and Transform Newham) Revd Ade Omooba (Christian Victory Group) Campbell Robb (Office of the Third Sector).
Workshop topics include: Challenging gang culture; Street Pastors initiative; Engaging with local government; Football in the community .
This is an essential conference for anyone involved in church leadership who wants to see their church making an impact for God in their local neighbourhood.
God wants to transform your community and he is planning to use your church!
