HeartEdge conference - Christ in the Stranger


Christ in the Stranger.  A HeartEdge Conference for Churches

Wednesday June 3rd 9.30am for 10am to 4pm
St Martins in The Bullring Birmingham

The foundational conviction of HeartEdge is that God gives us everything we need but we need to be willing to receive it in the form in which God sends it. Matthew 25 and Luke 10 show us some of the forms in which God sends it – and both refer explicitly to the stranger. The conference will focus on how congregations can most appropriately receive the gifts of God in the stranger and how in particular they may respond to the Christian-influenced voices in this country expressing hostility to migrants today.

Key Note Speakers 
Rt Revd. Guli Francis-Dehqani, Bishop of Chelmsford and
Revd Dr Sam Wells, Vicar of St Martin-in-the-Fields

Plus Inter-active workshops on the HeartEdge 4 Cs

The Fee for the day is £40 to include refreshments. You can bring a friend or colleague for just an additional £10 Subsidised places available on request from heartedge@smitf.org
