Theme: Prophets who like to make a drama out of a crisis!

Speakers: David Rowe and Dave Fenton.

They were trying to read the signs of the times. They were passionate about justice, faith, truth and integrity. They adopted creative and eccentric ways of communicating their message. They showed extreme courage in the face of governments and powerful religious leaders. They were imprisoned and abused, but they would not and could not be ignored. They were willing to go far out of their comfort zone in obedience to God - a huge challenge to anyone who seeks to be a disciple and ambassador for God today. Two and a half thousand years later, they are still household names - Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Hosea. They are like the X-Men of the Old Testament. They are the tip of the iceberg of the prophets of the Hebrew Bible. What are they saying to us today through the dust of time?

 'Chris Wright apologizes for the mistake and the misunderstanding it may cause regarding Vinay Samuel's ministry, which has never included raising Christian funds for building mosques.'

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

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.

The live relay of the morning meetings to the Earthworks marquee at the Rawnsley site, introduced this year, has worked well and been welcomed by those making us of this facility.'

Evenings in Costa

This is the third year that Costa has thrown open its doors in the evening to some of the young adults, aged between 19-24, attending the Convention for the Abide track, and around one hundred have gathered there each evening. Chris Slater, who heads up this track, said it was 'Great to see young people excited about their faith and getting into God's word.'

With the schools in England still finishing off their terms, most of the children and young people attending the event are drawn from Scotland and Northern Ireland, and they too have been enjoying the Convention.

Warm Welcome from the Town

On the opening night, Roger Purkiss  welcomed conventioners, encouraging them to visit the town's attractions and shops. Other local dignatories attended, together with local clergy.
