DBS enhanced disclosure required

Over 6,000 people in over 80 places in the UK and worldwide have discovered more about fresh expressions of church and have come away with a real desire to work with God and develop their dreams. In a fun and interactive way, vision events give you the chance to:

o   share your story;

o   think about what it is to be church;

o   ask questions;

o   find out about fresh expressions;

o   discover resources;

o   build networks and relationships.

vision events are ideal for complete beginners, those with real questions about fresh expressions and mission-shaped church, people who have started something new and need some practical help, and Christians from all churches and traditions.

Pete Atkins, convenor of the Fresh Expressions training hub, says, ‘Each vision event is carefully planned in partnership with local churches to ensure that it is relevant in that particular area and context.’

Over 12 years, Sorted has reproduced several times and as this has happened, we’ve learnt many do’s and don’ts of pioneering and fresh expressions along the way. We continue to learn and invite you to join us and share your experiences so we can learn together.

Exploring where and how to begin pioneering fresh expressions, where to find support, how to develop partnerships, the advantage of working through stages, gathering a community, discipleship and growing leaders, sustainability, reproduction and developing worship and sacraments are some of the things we will explore.

At this day in Leicestershire, it’s a chance to hear some stories, share experiences and explore ways to pioneer together through worship, teaching and seminars on different aspects of the pioneering process. Come and be inspired, explore some new ideas and have a fabulous day of fun with others on a similar journey.
