Cairngorms Convention
Starting this convention in the Cairngorms is a natural outworking of where we live and therefore our home mission field, and a desire that Scotland - and in particular the north - has this gathering of God’s people - for all ages and stages - on an annual basis to praise and worship and learn together.
It’s an inherently beautiful location and shouts of God’s glory, and we’d love to establish rhythm and place for God’s people here. And one that encourages the faithful that live locally.
We are seeking to refresh and resource the local church.
Come and gather with us!
UPDATE 31/3
If you're a full-time student, choose the discount ticket option, and we'd love to hear where you're studying.
Coming as a group? Please do contact us, and check out the lodges you can book for between 12 and 17 people.
LIFE 2023
A fulsome celebration of life that’s been given in creation; found in the image of God in humankind; and seen around us and that shouts of His glory.
John 1.4 “In him was life, and the life was the light of men.”
It enables us to speak powerfully of our Sovereign Lord as creator, as well as the uniqueness of how we’re made, and the wonder of life through / in / modelled by, Christ.
In 2023 we will be joined by speakers including Alistair Wilson, Joe Barnard, Jamie Grant,
Claire Wilson, Nigel Watts, Kenny Ross and more.
A full children and youth programme will be offered.
Campfires, music, hot drinks...
