These events provide a valuable opportunity for members to come together, learn, and grow within an inspiring framework.We sincerely hope you will be able to join us at one of these conferences and be part of an enriching experience.Why Attend?The LyCiG programme has gained recognition for its effectiveness and positive impact. By participating, you will experience a well attested initiative that promises to inspire.This course is run by the national LyCiG team who have years of experience and who's help can lead to real change. Results show that with their support parishes typically grow 10% above the national average, with 18% more under-18s year-on-year. This is incredibly encouraging for our worshipping communities.A Two-Day ConferenceConferences will run over multiple days but we will also support with follow up sessions held in person and on zoom. Leading your Church into Growth is a transformative process. The follow-on sessions are designed to help teams continue to cultivate hope and embed their learning across their unique context.We would like to invite teams of between five and eight people per parish or benefice. An ordained leader (the incumbent/ associate vicar / team vicar) will need to attend to support the decision making, along with their team of key lay people. This collaborative approach to training and going on a journey of growth together is what makes this training so sucessful and enjoyable.One person should make the booking on behalf of their team, selecting the number of tickets depending on the number of team members attending.What the course covers:• A two-day conference with teaching, group discussion and practical planning• 7 sessions covering prayer, growth planning, discipleship, evangelism and worship• Follow-up programme with coaching support to embed learning• Free access to LyCiG Local to equip more membersThe LyCiG Approach:Simple - Rooted in the real everyday life of the local churchPractical - Hands-on training & accessible resourcesEffective - A pathway which is proven to lead to growthFlexible - Resources that recognise each church is differentDates for 2026:FOR THE BRADWELL AREA:May 16th - 17th Brentwood ConferenceLocation: St Peters Church, Claughton Way, Hutton, Brentwood CM13 1JSORFOR THE BRADWELL AND COLCHESTER AREAS:October 17th - 18th Chelmsford ConferenceLocation: The Salvation Army Chelmsford Citadel, 70 Baddow Rd, Chelmsford CM2 0DDFOR THE BARKING AREA:LyCiG will also be running in the Barking area, more details will follow soon.
