How to Build a Strategic Church - Using Purpose Driven Principles 

A strategy for Church Health and Church Growth

These  one day conferences are designed to help leaders build strategic churches. The purpose of these seminars is to provide valuable insights and practical ideas that are essential in helping your church become a healthy, growing community of disciples of Christ. The day will cover leadership issues, team building, developing transferable strategies for healthy relationships both in and outside of the church, plus strategies for equipping church members to be disciples of Christ.  During the day there will be opportunities for participation and group discussion so that we can learn from the experiences of others. You will also hear from people who don't have all the answers, but who face some of the same challenges that you do.

Details of these conferences are as follows:-

Campaign News>>>

As churches across the country have completed their Campaigns we are hearing some fabulous ways God is moving the church. Here are some of the emails we have already received from last year and leading up to the Lent campaign:

40 Days of Community - 'It could be that all these new projects might have started without the prompting of the PD courses, but I rather doubt it. thank you for helping to give us the vision and motivation to get these things going.'

'I do believe the 40DOP campaign will be hard to beat but this campaign's impact will be refelected by the local culture'

40 Days of Purpose - 'Thank you for your encouragement. I am so grateful to Rick Warren and the Purpose Driven movement for the way God has got hold of my life'

'It was a great time for us as a church although not universally welcomed, people did get a lot out of it. Some have recommitted their lives to the Lord. The congregation size on a Sunday morning has grown from 80 to 100. Small groups from 80 to 120.  I would have no hesitation in recommending 40DOP it has injected extra faith into us and built people up in their understanding of what they are here for.

'We have had almost 100% of our congregation attending the small groups meetings. Is this a first?

 40 Days of Community

During 40 Days of Purpose, we answered the question, "What on earth am I here for?"
We discovered Gods five purposes for our lives: Worship, Fellowship, Discipleship, Ministry, and Mission.
Our lives were enriched, our churches grew, our small groups developed.

Are you ready to take your congregation on the next spiritual journey to answer "What on earth are WE here for?" 40 Days of Community is the next step in spiritual growth, designed to help deepen authentic community within your church family and reach out to the local community outside the church. Most churches start a Campaign in February ( pre Easter) or September but you can decide to start at another time of the year.  More >>
