Pastors and Leaders Summit: Collaboration for City Reaching

This event has already ended.

As the Canadian Church moves towards recovering from the turbulent and unexpected changes thrust upon it because of the pandemic, it is more critical than ever for the church to come together for a unified witness to see greater kingdom impact in our cities. The pandemic has managed to divide our world, disconnect leaders, and fragmented the church. When we have a divided world, we need more than ever a church that is united.

This January, Mission Central will be gathering a diverse group of church and ministry leaders from the church in the Vancouver region to listen, learn and discuss how we might navigate the topic of Unity as a critical ingredient for mission.

At this gathering we will be hearing from Kevin Palau and Rick McKinley who will share about TogetherPDX, a beautiful gospel city movement of churches working together for the sake of the Kingdom in Portland, Oregon – a city not unlike our own in degrees of secularism and non-religious affiliated people.

If we desire to see the transformation in our cities, region and nation that we dream of, then we need to learn to collaborate, build trust, and not compete. Unity cannot truly happen until we participate in it. We look forward to seeing you there.

Join us:

  • Date: January 27, 2023
  • Time: 10am–12pm (Coffee will be on at 9:30am)
  • Location: Cariboo Hill Salvation Army
  • Registration is free (but required). Donations are welcome.

Sponsored by the Canadian Bible Society. Presented in partnership with: Church for Vancouver, CityGate Ministries, UGM, Waybase, 24-7 Prayer.
