HPS is hosting a special one day conference exclusively for church leaders in full or part-time ministry. 

This will be a day of exploring how we can experience the unforced rhythms of grace in the busyness of leadership. It will be held at All Saints Church, Woodford Wells, on Saturday 16 November 2024, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Hebrews 12:1-2 - “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross,scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God”.

In order to run the race set before us we need to experience continuous internal rest. To continue with perseverance requires more than lifestyle changes. This day will explore some of the “rest robbers."

Session 1 - Entering into God's rest - how anxiety , worry and restless activity steal our rest. As an antidote, what gives us joy? Feeds our soul ?
Session 2 - Different members of the team will explore what rest looks like for them.
Session 3 - Creativity, listening and meditation.
Session 4 - The ‘Road Less Travelled’. Running the marathon race with perseverance and hope.

COST: £10 which will include a complimentary copy of one of Lin’s books. You can choose which title, including her soon-to-be-published new book, “Rest Matters”.

Drinks will be provided. You can bring a packed lunch or there are shops nearby.
