Leading Your Church into Growth - Conference
2023-11-28 - 2023-11-30 | Barton Manor Spa Hotel, Preston
THE 5 NORTHERLY SYNODS OF THE UNITED REFORMED CHURCH
Calling all church leaders!
We are very excited to once again to offer places on this very popular and effective church growth conference. We are asking that at least two, or even better three could come from each sending church to be able to get the most from this highly effective course.
The full cost of this course is well over £400, but by the generosity of the national church and the 5 northerly synods we are able to offer the course for free other than travel and personal expenses.
This includes accommodation and food.
Limited places, this is a first-come first-booked policy. To book a place contact ashley@bvurc.org.uk

Lay Preachers' and Worship Leaders' Lectionary Planning sessions
2023-10-18 10:00 - 11:30 | Online via Zoom
We invite you to Explore the November lectionary readings together on Wednesday 18th October. There will be two identical sessions, the first session being at 10.00am with a second repeated session at 7.30pm.
Facilitated by Rod Morrison in the morning and Anne Dale in the evening, this will be a time for participants to look together at the lectionary readings for 5th, 12th, 19th & 26th November in preparation for leading worship on those Sundays.
Please register your interest with Rod Morrison rodmorrison1946@btinternet.com by Friday 13th October, indicating whether you will join in the morning or evening or if you are available for either, so if necessary we can balance the groups so both sessions are viable.
