Call for presenters!

ELEMENTALWEST 2024

Date: October 25-26, 2024                    Location: Vancouver, BC                                 Organizer: Pathfinders

 

In an era where ‘church as organization’ is in serious decline, we must find pathways to embrace the Kingdom and ‘church as family’ if we are to reach millennials, people groups in migration and the poor. A ‘new work’ of God’s Spirit is afoot. And, you have clues that others need! Consider what you can bring to the table …

This huddle of practitioners from across Canada and the US will update, inspire and equip Kingdom-minded folk to continue to advance the gospel to all nations, at home and abroad. Between sessions there will be opportunities for conversations, reflection and networking. The sharing of resources in this environment will be a highlight of the time.

We will gather as a learning community to further stimulate organic church understanding and practice in a post-modern and post-denominational world. Pathfinders events have been gathering places for disciplemakers, church planters, house churchers and frontier gospel workers in a variety of contexts among diverse people groups since 2005.

 Conference tracks:

  1. Organic churching through family networks, house churches and other simple expressions . 
  2. Insider movements to First Nations, Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist neighbours.
  3. Online strategies for the gospel.
  4. Missional church in a post-denominational world.
  5. Kingdom in the Marketplace as seeking the shalom and prosperity of the city.

Submission Guidelines: We welcome submissions from any with interest in households of faith, missional church, marketplace ministry, bivocational leadership, etc.              

Presentation Types: Workshops, Case Studies, Panels and Keynotes will come together with up to 25% of attendees making presentations. Please send a paragraph of at least 200 words or an abstract, to describe your planned presentation.
