Small Church Connexion: Gifting Workshop

Saturday 7 February 2026, 9.45am-1pm
Union Church, Heathfield, TN21 8LB


This is a 3 hour workshop for the whole church, not just the leaders.

Ephesians 4 v7-12 declares that “Christ ... gave gifts to people ... to prepare God's people for works of service”.

Our observation across a large number of churches, is that many churches and their leaders are not sure of what their gifts are, nor what gifts they need locally to enable the body of Christ to be built up. The aim of the workshop is to build confidence in body ministry of the churches to help them in their mission.

The workshop is based on the 5 gifts from Ephesians 4 v11-12 (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Shepherd & Teacher) plus another two (Organiser and Helper). There is teaching, a simple questionnaire and some discussion in gifting groups.

When we recognise that ‘God is in the room’ and give Him time and space to work, then anything can happen! As children are facing bigger and bigger challenges, it is essential that they have their own encounters with God. As children’s leaders our job is to ensure that when we meet with them, that we not only provide good fun programmes but also facilitate God encounters that are transformational. Come and receive fresh vision, enjoy times of worship, encounter God’s presence for yourself, as well as gaining many practical skills and ideas to help you see children become a supernatural generation.

There will be various workshops on Saturday, with a stream particularly for those working with 0-5’s.

Ticket price includes all refreshments and afternoon tea on Saturday.
