Join Mark Yaconelli for a day that will help to equip and inspire you in the work you do with young people and spirituality.

Thrive West Midlands (Church Urban Fund) and Birmingham Diocese are hosting this event in an intimate venue with opportunities for conversation.

'How do we slow young people (and ourselves) to the speed of God? How do we help young people discover their capacity for love, generosity, compassion, and kindness? How do we cultivate the heart and life of Jesus within the young people of our communities? How do we as youth workers, ministers, pastors and parents become transparent to the suffering and needs of young people without burning out?' Through story, discussion, and spiritual practice Mark Yaconelli will share his experience and practical research from twenty years of ministering to the souls of young people and the youth workers who serve them. There will also be time to creatively reflect yourself as you start the new year.
