How Do We Grow Our Churches Younger and More Diverse? Come along to participate in this new Open Space style workshop. For leaders in children's, youth, young adult and student ministries, this event is all about investing in relational connections, sparking new ideas, and being mobilised to engage in problem solving in a fruitful way. In this session we will be addressing the question, what does it look like in our contexts to grow our churches younger and more diverse? OpenSpace gatherings are highly dynamic and participatory, enabling attendees to shape the agenda in real-time. We hope to foster an environment where everyone is welcome to contribute, collaborate, and share experiences. Through networking and the cross-pollination of ideas, you'll have the chance to engage in meaningful discussions and brainstorm practical solutions to help you and your ministries thrive. Key Aims: Strengthen team productivity, participation and collaboration. Create a space where leaders feel supported and less isolated in their roles. Gather and share insights and ideas on what additional resources or support we need to be more effective in our ministries. We hope you will leave this event having connected, shared, and been equipped with new perspectives and relationships that will empower you in your work. We look forward to learning and growing together! Key Information: We will be gathering at Youthscape for morning refreshments at 09:30 and finishing with lunch at 12:30. Youthscape is conveniently located next to Luton Train station, for those traveling by train. For those driving, please note that the car park directly outside Youthscape is no longer available, the closest car park can be located on Power Court, just a 5 minute walk from the venue.
