Therefore go: practical training on the why and how of evangelism so you’re good to go
Therefore Go is an interactive training event led by Andrew Baughen, Vicar of St James Clerkenwell, which will use a combination of Bible study, seminar teaching, discussion of video case studies and practical work in small groups. The material has been used and developed at Convention over recent years. The day will give each of us more confidence in our daily conversational evangelism by equipping us with the knowhow to therefore go.
The next course will be held at East London Tabernacle, London, E3 4TU on Saturday, 22 October 2011 from 10:00am - 4:00pm.
Bookings can be made online – www.thegoodbook.co.uk/thereforego or for more details call 0207 251 1190
Post Convention reflections
Published: 8 August 2011
From Simon Overend, Operations Manager.
On the opening night of this year’s Convention John Risbridger prayed that those attending Convention this year “be blessed, in order that they might be a blessing when they return to their local churches and communities”. I truly believe that many people have been blessed by God, and that there will be much fruit as a result of the seeds that have been sown. It has been a joy to read the many positive comments that have come, and continue to come into the office – thank you for them.
In church yesterday our focus was on prayer and we were reminded – As man works, man works. As man prays, God works. We thank God for the vast army of prayer warriors who support us year round, and know only too well that it is in His strength and not our own, that we do His will, for His glory. A special thank you too to all those who worked so tirelessly, on all the teams that make Convention so special – you are too numerous to mention, but God knows each one of you.
We will be updating the website as we progress with the plans for the 2012 Convention, and adding some photographs of this year’s event which we hope will bring back some happy memories, and help you share something of Convention with friends who might not have been before.
Thank you again for partnering with us as in God’s mission for His world.
Simon.
