Kingston Area Lay Conference
Confident Faith in a Changing World
Keynote Speaker ++Rowan Williams:
“Can we recover that revolutionary confidence in God so that the living waters that Christ promises us may rise and we with them”?
Bishop Martin warmly invites all the lay people in the Kingston Area to attend this special day.
Coffee, tea and lunch will be provided alongside workshops exploring confident faith in relationship to different topics. Prayer spaces will be available, and a market hall during lunch. Activities for primary aged school children will be led by Kick London for those that have completed this section of the registration form.
Join us from 9.30-4pm at St Cecilia’s Church of England School, Sutherland Grove, SW18 5JR.

There is no charge to attend this conference, though we are asking those that can to donate £5-10 on the day.
This conference is for all who attend our churches in the Kingston Area, those who are in identified forms of lay ministry and those who are not. Places for workshops are limited to 20 so book now to avoid disappointment.
Limited places for clergy will be available to book for the afternoon talk and plenary session with ++ Rowan Williams.
