2024 Church Planting Conference

2024 Church Planting Conference: Rhythms & Rituals

You are invited to join us at the Centre for Missional Leadership’s 2024 Church Planting Conference. From May 2-4, 2024 we will be gathering at St Andrew’s Hall in Vancouver, BC for our first church planting conference:

Rhythms & Rituals: Christian Formation on the Edges of Western Culture

As Western culture grows more secular and Christianity finds itself toward the edges of culture, Canadian church plants are witnessing to God’s love in the world in new ways.  This conference will explore how the rhythms and rituals for leadership, worship gatherings, and discipleship and formation are being adapted in contexts. Grounded in missional theology, this conference will highlight how God’s Spirit continues to guide the church through this time of transition.

The keynote speaker will be Dr. Stefan Paas, a church planter and a professor from the Free University of Amsterdam. Canadian church planters will also lead workshops and storytelling sessions during our three days on the UBC campus. This conference is for church planters, researchers, students, congregational leaders, and anyone who is curious about the new things that God is sprouting up in the church.

Registration opens in January 2024.
