Multiply Residential 2025

Full Time and Growth Fund Pioneer Ministers met at Wydale Hall.

In April we had our annual Multiply Gathering where the full and part time ministers and teams spend Friday evening and Saturday together at Wydale Hall. Over 35 of us gathered for worship, prayer and shared good news stories of how God is at work in our contexts. We had an inspiring session from Ruth Perrin about generational differences and approaches to faith along with afternoon breakout groups led by Jan Grey, Beth Pellymounter and Mary Rolls on a range of topics including Generous Giving in our Parishes, Difficult Conversations and Praying with and for Others. We also prioritised time for connecting, encouraging and learning from one another. 

“It was such a blessing in so many ways - time and space away from challenges at home, beautiful accommodation (including the grounds) and excellent food, Spirit led worship sessions, thought provoking teaching (I now have loads to unpack and digest), a chance to chat with and encourage other pioneers, wonderful stories of God at work, and finally, time with my team member. I have come away excited, encouraged and equipped for the term ahead! I know that a lot of time and effort went into providing all of these opportunities, and I feel so blessed to have been able to enjoy them all!” Emma Mawer, Wheldrake
