WERB’s NETWORK
AWAY DAY
22 March 2026
Join us at Derby Cathedral School…
We are gathering as the 3 churches which belong to the Werb’s Network – St Werburgh’s Derby, St Francis Mackworth and St Ed’s Allenton and Shelton Lock. It is a time to come together to inspire and encourage each other and tell stories of what God is doing in our three churches and seek his vision for the future.
Last year we had an amazing time gathering as a Network at The Cathedral School, where we heard about the things God is doing across our nation and spent time contending for revival in Derby. Since then, we have seen all our churches grow with people coming to know Jesus and a greater unity across our network particularly with our Kingdom Come events.
However, we aren't going to rest at this, as we know He 'is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine' (Eph 3:20)
WHAT will we be doing?
Join us as we explore the theme 'Never Settle' in our attempt to go deeper and wider in our relationship with God and our community.
There will be times of corporate worship and teaching, kids and youth programmes, as well as afternoon seminars (sign-ups for this to follow) and social time.
