Lisburn Cathedral hosts its first ever Festival of Preaching

Friday February 15th 2013

Lisburn Cathedral will host its first ever Festival of Preaching on Saturday March 2 2013.

Church leaders, preachers, youth leaders, and anyone with an interest in communicating God’s timeless Word in timely ways is invited to a masterclass of preaching aimed at blessing and equipping ministry.

Keynote speaker for the day will be the Rev Charlie Cleverly – a dynamic communicator who is rector in St Aldate’s, Oxford.

The festival will begin at 9.30am in the Cathedral with coffee on arrival, followed by worship and Charlie’s keynote address. Following this, participants will attend one of four seminars – all delivered by gifted communicators focusing on a particular aspect of preaching – for example ‘Preaching with Imagination’ and ‘Teaching Christian Living in a Secular Age.’

After lunch, participants will have the chance to attend a second of the four seminar options, and the day will end with an act of worship from 3–3.30pm.

Anyone who would like to attend the festival can download a booking form which should be returned to Lisburn Cathedral Office, 24 Castle Street, Lisburn. For further info email enquiries@lisburncathedral.org or call 02892676499.

The cost of the day is £25.
