Friday 4th - Sunday 6th October 2019
Sion Community, in partnership with the Home Mission Office of the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, is promoting the New Evangelisation Summit by running a unique New Evangelisation Summit Training (NEST) conference in the UK.
Each year, just after Easter, the Summit brings together a group of world-class speakers to inspire and motivate Catholics in the work of evangelisation. Some delegates attend the summit in person in Ottawa; the event is also live-streamed across North America. Later in the year, the same talks are made available in other continents as part of an "as-live" weekend. In 2019, this will take place on Saturday 5th October, and Catholic parishes, deaneries and communities across the UK will be able to register as local hubs to participate (contact the Home Mission Office for more information).
Sion Community will be hosting NEST, a special Summit Training weekend, in Brentwood. If you'd like to host a broadcast of the Summit in your own community but don't feel able to do so without training and practical help, NEST is for you. On Saturday, you will be able to experience the Summit just as you would in any other host venue. On Sunday 6th October, this will be followed by practical workshops on how to manage the publicity, logistics, technical set-up, hospitality and worship elements of hosting a summit - it's not as complicated as you might fear!
You are welcome to take part in NEST as either a residential or a non-residential participant.
A collection will additionally be taken on Saturday in support of Mission of the Redeemer Ministries who produce the Summit in Canada.
Please note that the suggested donations are intended to cover the costs of meals, refreshments and (when staying on-site) accommodation at the Brentwood venue. We would not want money to be a barrier to participation and sponsored places are available; please contact us for more information.
