Excited to gather together once again
We are thrilled to be returning to Málaga, Spain after three years for four days of equipping and commissioning.
The city is a treasure trove of history, architecture and art, nestled between mountains on one side and the ocean on the other. Alongside the many historical sites, the beautiful town is full of beautiful parks, restaurants and storefronts connected by a good public transport system.

engaging with radical truth
2022 Conference Theme
The Risks and the Rewards of pioneering
The costs and sacrifices of mission are real and high. Yet the rewards both in this life and in the next are rich and considerable.
In our post-pandemic, mid-war, comfort-addicted European world, it is as important as ever to speak into these risks and costs of radical sacrificial mission. And just as vital to consider the rewards and the prize towards which God has called us.
Come prepared to be challenged and encouraged afresh as we delve into this topic in detail.
Speakers
We are looking forward to having excellent teachers from both Relational Mission and New Ground to inspire us freshly in line with our theme in our main sessions, as well as a range of voices leading seminars on different planting topics.
Full line-up to be announced soon.
