The Big Conversation: Threads of Hope
Booking closes Monday 26th October 2026 at 12pm!

What happens when we take time to stop, listen, share and dream together?

This year’s Big Conversation is an invitation to come together as people who are living, working and worshipping in Priority Areas — to hear the stories of ministry and mission that are happening around us, celebrate the ways God is already at work, and ask what else might be possible.

12th & 13th November 2026
Stirling Court Hotel
Over two days, we’ll hear from people whose own stories of calling, faith and ministry have brought them to where they are today. We’ll share our own experiences, talk around tables, worship together, laugh, reflect and make space to simply be together.

We’ll explore:

Our Stories — the people and experiences that have shaped us
Our Ministry — what God is doing in us and our communities
Our Communities — the people we are called to serve and walk alongside
Our Hope — what keeps us going and where we see God at work
Our Future — what we might become

There’ll be space for conversation, creativity, worship, Communion, rest and renewal — because sometimes the most important things happen when we have time simply to listen to one another.

On Friday, we’ll turn our attention to the future with the Priority Areas Team, exploring methodology, solidarity and asking 'what could we become'? All the while thinking together about where God might be leading us next.

Come and add your thread.

Because no one story tells the whole story.

Together, our threads become something stronger.

“And let us consider how we may spur one another on towards love and good deeds.” - Hebrews 10:24

We’d love you to be part of the conversation.
