The Covid years taught us the importance of togetherness through the difficulty of being apart. Now there's a chance to build on that, finding connections between traditional parishes, fresh expressions, church plants, and contextual missions.
This is about more than celebrating the diversity of the church in all its forms, it's about learning how different approaches to embodying the gospel need one another.
In his presentation, the Rev. Ed Olsworth-Peter will help us to see the church as a living ecosystem, encouraging us to tend to the seeds of faith that are growing all around us.
