The conference offers a unique opportunity to attend with key members of your church or ministry team, alongside others with a similar mindset to focus on mission and spiritual and numerical growth in your context. Leading your Church into Growth (LyCIG) takes the form of open seminars with interactive talks, practical exercises, workshops and time for personal reflection to enable the learning to be applied to your context.  "I came away with such inspiration and writing on the booklet ‘it’s all about the people’. I reported back to the PCC that it is down to all of us, don’t leave it the vicar. Since then we have built such a community with us all mucking in making such a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere." Rosemary Campbell. (A previous attendee of the conference.) As a mission and ministry team, we strongly believe that this conference can play a key part in the development of healthy, growing, mission focused churches and that is why we choose to heavily subsidise the places. The price we are charging is £120 per delegate for the weekend, instead of the actual cost of £248. We encourage you to bring a group of between 3 and 8 people, to best share the learning and be able to implement it in your context more effectively afterwards.
