Our Program This Year
We will arrive at The Tops Conference Centre on Wednesday the 13th from 4pm. You will be given access to your rooms to settle in, and we will then have our first chance to catch up over dinner, before our first all-in session that will set the focus for our time together.
On Thursday, Michael Wood will lead us in OST (Open Space Technology), organising us to convene the conversations that matter most to us across several sessions.
On Thursday evening, we will host our Network Celebration Night – an evening to highlight, honour, and celebrate our people, entities, and churches in their work, life cycles, and emerging new initiatives. This event is open to anyone from our churches, and we’d love you to invite others from your church who’d like to get a taste of the wider network. A night-only ticket including our celebratory dinner is available for supportive staff, leaders, and volunteers who are unable to attend the rest of Collective 24.
On Friday morning, Michael will continue the OST process with us, allowing us to close our conversations, move what matters into action, and harvest the power of these conversations. This final session is a vital step of the OST process, and we encourage all to remain with us to finish well. Our program will conclude with lunch at 1pm.
Registration
Collective is designed to be attended as a two-night program and registration costs cover a delegate’s entire stay. We strongly encourage delegates to attend from Wednesday night until the conclusion of our program at lunch on Friday to fully participate with us. Attendance is not compulsory but can be used for OPD for endorsed ministers.
This year we are also offering a Thursday night ticket to our Network Celebration Dinner and Event to encourage those who cannot attend all of Collective due to other commitments. This is an opportunity for them to join us for a night to experience our network. When a team registers as a group, a free ticket to Thursday night is included to offer to a member of your church.
We encourage church leadership to support their ministering persons by covering the cost of attending Collective.
