Leadership
Huddle
The Leadership huddle is
where many of the steps for our
Gap goals will be rolled out. It
is therefore imperative that
those considered leaders in the
church would make the
following dates a priority. 19th
April & 3rd June.
We would like to formally invite
all PCC, Standing Committee,
small group leaders, kids
leaders, youth leaders and all
those who would consider
themselves involved in the
leadership of ministry either
inside or outside of the church.
During the meeting there will be
worship, a biblical context for
what is taught, accountability,
practical leadership skills and
the chance to have input for
specific ministries in breakout
sessions from time to time.
These meetings are not
designed to replace specific
ministry planning meetings and
these should continue as
normal.

Seekers. The course is aimed at
teaching individuals (or perhaps
small groups) about prayer, and
