Step 1

Welcome to Renew Mission Life Leadership training. Renew Mission Life Leadership will equip you to participate with our God on a mission in your neighbourhood. The training includes group workshops and is designed for leaders and potential leaders.

The purpose of Step 1 Renew Mission Life Leadership is to provide the understanding, skills and practical systems for leading your congregation to become more fruitful in local mission – to become healthy, mission-shaped and multiplying.

So, invite your ministry team, staff, church council, and more, and enjoy the missional journey.

To get started on Step 1, download the resources and watch the accompanying videos.

Booklets

The resources required for Step 1 are Renew Mission Life Facilitator’s Guide, Renew Mission Life Leadership 1.0 and Discovery Tools.

Then read the second chapter prior to attending the second workshop, etc. This book refers to a range of Discovery Tools, which can be accessed as separate files to download or print.
