Nik King introduces the first ever SA Worship Conference.

Are you a passionate worshipper? Are you part of a worship team, looking to start one or wanting to explore potential giftings in this area? This November, the Music and Creative Arts Department (Maca) is hosting a conference for worship teams and musicians throughout the UKI Territory to cultivate a deeper experience of worship.

There has been a growing need for training and development among worship teams, both spiritually and practically, for a while and Maca is thrilled to offer an exciting event that will help worship teams grow in their craft, develop a deeper connection to God through worship and share in community with others who are passionate about sung worship.

We have some exciting guests joining us for the conference.

The conference will focus on teaching, training and studying biblical teaching on worship, as well as spending time worshipping together and waiting on God. We expect the Holy Spirit to move among us and will be taking time to pray for one another.

Gifted musicians will lead seminars on songwriting, audio and visual media, and leading worship. Finally, we will give time for sharing experiences and stories with one another, building community with like-minded people.

We have some exciting guests joining us for the conference. Those who attended Roots will have heard of Geraldine Latty. Geraldine, her husband, Carey Luce, and their band will be sharing their expertise and experience, culminating with a worship time on the Saturday evening. Producer Les Moir – who has developed worship leaders including Matt Redman and Tim Hughes – will be speaking on the Sunday, plus Territorial Director of Community Services Tony Daniels and Mission and Ministry Formation Co-ordinator Captain Callum McKenna will share.

Why not sign up your whole worship team as an opportunity to learn, pray and build each other up together?

The event is open to worship leaders, worship teams, instrumentalists, singers – anyone passionate about sung worship. Why not sign up your whole worship team as an opportunity to learn, pray and build each other up together?

The conference will run from 18 to 19 November at William Booth College. Tickets cost £59 and include two meals and refreshments, with delegates responsible for arranging their own accommodation. Places are limited so make sure you book early to avoid disappointment.
