This workshop is designed for church pastors, leadership teams, key volunteers and congregants who are interested in the future of the church.
It will be structured as mostly presentation with time for discussion with folks around tables and an open question and answer period for all. Churches may want to sit with their own group or mix with others. Breaks, snacks and refreshments will be provided.
Participants will leave with:
• a better understanding of the lasting impact of COVID isolation on the wider church including the latest church research data
• a better understanding of what it means to be Hybrid Church – not just Hybrid Worship.
• Practical recommendations and strategies to help churches flourish post COVID
