Microchurch - Welcome

2009 MICRO-CHURCH SUMMIT
Alexandra Park Conference Centre
Mari Street Alexandra Headland Qld 4572 Sunshine Coast Fri 2nd Oct - 4th Oct 2009

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

Over the past decade or so, we have seen an unprecedented move of the Spirit among believers. Multitudes have left the traditional church and have begun meeting in homes, parks or wherever in small numbers.
There are various names for these, house church, organic church, simple church and others who have no particular title. There are also traditional churches that are transitioning to a simpler church model.
However, many of these groups in western nations are not experiencing the same rate of growth as those in countries such as China and India. As a result there is a growing frustration among many who have been pioneers in this movement.
At this years Summit, we won’t be just giving out more information on the validity of home churches. We will be providing practical solutions from those who are experiencing breakthroughs in home church growth both locally and internationally. In other words giving answers to, WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
As part of this, practical workshops on evangelism, equipping disciples, overseas missions and other subjects will be available in a small group format.

"Summit 08 was a wealth of information about other organisation and what they do.

I found the group work rewarding in building relationships and finding out what others are doing from around Australia.

I'm looking forward to meeting up with those who are being 'led by the Spirit' to attend Summit 09. It's sure to be a another fun filled spiritled time!!!"

What is Micro-church?

Micro-church is not an organization, it’s an organism. It’s a generic name we simply use for those who seek to see greater cross-pollination among those following the early church model.

We all realize that the names are not the issue…it’s the purpose. The common goal is to revisit the truths of the early church, restore Christ as the Head of the church and once again see the world turned upside down.

Those who have journeyed down this path have learnt many different aspects of these truths and have much to share. They also have various gifts and talents which need to be shared across the Body.

Many of those I have talked to have sensed for some time the need to bring different parts of the Body together for the purpose of finding out what is working and what is not. That’s why we call it a summit … not a conference.
This means it's not about a mountain of teaching sessions, but centering on resource sharing, learning from one another and then spend time building relationships with those we consider Godly appointments.

We trust we will see you there.
