The New Housing Conversation Days are an opportunity to meet with others with a calling to new housing areas. During the day we will explore, learn and theologically reflect together through interactive activities, conversation, and story sharing. A key part of the day is growing friendships so that we all have people to journey with, long after the Conversation Day is over.
Whether you are new to this ministry or have been involved in new housing for many years, you are welcome to come and join the conversation!
It is taking place in the Ebbsfleet Garden City – a new housing area of 15,000 homes in total, and still partway through the development. We hope you will enjoy being in another new neighborhood as we share together.
We have friends from the Netherlands joining us for the day too.
