As part of the ENTRUST Cross Training programme, this year saw the first of what will hopefully become an annual conference. The Revive Conference is aimed at equipping those involved in youth and children’s ministry. This year’s speaker was Rory Bell, of TnT Ministries in London. Rory has been a children’s worker for many years and ministered at Christ Church Midrand with his wife Kim before they took up the leadership of TnT, where they are currently involved in writing children’s teaching material and running training programmes for kids and youth leaders.
Rory’s 4 sessions included very helpful discussions on what real ministry is, on how to use volunteers in the local church, and how to support parents in their role of teaching their children the Bible. Combined with a healthy dose of humour and conviction, Rory encouraged everyone to keep persevering in gospel-centred ministry. It was a great time of reflection and fellowship for all.
