Cross-Cultural Ministry Conference 2023

'Moving into the neighbourhood'

DATE
5–6 May 2023

WHERE
Quality Hotel Melbourne Airport
265 Mickleham Road,
Tullamarine, Victoria

More than 50 people re-considered their local neighbourhoods as mission fields during the 2023 LCANZ Cross-Cultural Ministry conference in Melbourne.

Based on The Message translation of John 1:14, which says, ‘The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighbourhood’, the theme for the 5–6 May event was ‘Moving into the neighbourhood’.

Dr Tania Nelson, the LCANZ’s Executive Officer – Local Mission, said participants ‘dwelt in the word, worshipped, heard stories of neighbourhood ministry events and missional attitudes, and were inspired by speakers from within the LCA and from other faith traditions’.
