Pioneer Ministry – how do we do it well?

This conference is mainly for those involved in Pioneer Ministry and those supporting the development of Pioneer Ministry in Scotland. However, it will be of wider interest to anyone interested in exploring how lessons learnt from church planting help to inform developments within existing churches.
