Introduction
The God who loves us so much calls us to love those around us in his name. Scripture fleshes that out and explains that means sharing lives, weeping with those who weep – rejoicing with those who rejoice, spurring one another on to love and good works and speaking the truth in love with one another in all circumstances of life. But how do we do that in practice? In our regional conferences this year we will be exploring the call and the practical steps that can be taken to grow churches that offer Christ-like care.
The Friday afternoon will be suitable for all with leadership responsibilities in their church, looking at how leaders can structure and spearhead pastoral care to serve the church wisely and well.
The Saturday day event is suitable for all and will explore how every member of a congregation can play a part in growing a culture of care for others through listening, praying and speaking well.
