Neartú conference for Children and Families Ministry
Neartú (strengthen) is an ecumenical conference for all who are involved in Children and Families Ministry across the island of Ireland.
Join us for a fantastic day in the beautiful surroundings of Mount Saint Anne’s Conference Centre, Portarlington, for a time to strengthen yourself and your ministry.
We are so thrilled to welcome Rachel Turner as our Keynote speaker in the morning, as well as a host of experienced practitioners who will run a variety of workshops in the afternoon. Rachel is the founder of Parenting for Faith, and author of ten books for families, parents and church leaders including Parenting as a Church Leader, Comfort in Uncertain Times, It Takes a Church to Raise a Parent and her new release Parenting Teens for a Life of Faith.
She lectures on leadership and inter–generational church at the Institute for Children, Youth and Mission (CYM) and St Padarn’s Institute, and is the discipleship lead at Hope Church, Harrogate. She also consults and speaks internationally – and somehow has managed to carve out time to be with us!
During the lunch break, we will have a marketplace with representatives from family–focused organisations as well as a heap of resources and freebies.
The cost for the day is €25/£22 which includes lunch and refreshments through the day. If you book now using the code early bird you will get your ticket for just €20/£17!
So mark your diaries and book your tickets NOW as spaces are limited!!!
