WERB’s NETWORK

AWAY DAY

2 March 2025

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.

WHAT will we be doing?

This year we are focusing on contending for revival in Derby. We are going to have input from a number of church leaders from the wider HTB network who will be telling us stories of what God is doing in their locations and encouraging and inspiring us for the same in Derby.

In addition to this it will be a great opportunity for the three church communities to get to know each other as we build the network and seek the growth of God’s Kingdom. There will be a time at lunch to gather socially and take part in a number of activities from football to crafts and board games.
