This Saturday I will be co-presenting a workshop at the Missional Community Leader Conference on moving:
From Planting to Movements: The Role of City Networks
The purpose of the workshop is to explore and narrarate the role of city networks in facilitating a movement from church planting to a movement resulting in city renewal. We will share from theory and practice in order to inspire and equip people to think beyond their own church plant into movement ministry.
I will post our workshop notes after the conference.

Hi Jonathan, I’m very keen to get hold of any notes, mp3′s or links that you might have or make available on this important subject. I’ve just attended the very first Acts 29 Foundations conference to be held in South Africa- it was great. It’s exciting to think about how the network could be used as a vehicle for church planting and city renewal in my own country, and city (Pietermaritzburg). I have some ideas about how to go about this but would appreciate some guidance and stimulation. Hence my request. I’ll be in touch with you via email if ok with you. Blessings, Sam Groves.
