Mainstream East Midlands was launched in Peterborough on 25 April. Stephen Ibbotson led our sessions and presented us with the current thinking and direction the movement is taking. Those attending were encouraged to grasp the opportunity to develop local cells where groups of likeminded leaders can meet, share and become mutually accountable to each other in ministry. We were also encouraged to hold regional days with someone with the 'power of the congregation' invited to stimulate our thinking, and lead us into new areas of ministry. As a result of the launch the Peterborough ministers group will seek to take things forward from here - but we realise that making it happen will require everyone's passion to make Mainstream happen in your area. I hope and pray you can be part of what has now begun in the East Midlands as we seek to grow and develop together.

Mainstream North is encouraging the formation of local meetings of ministers/church leaders. These are based around an agenda in which we seek to develop one another as leaders committed to forming missionary disciples. Alongside this we have a programme of Leaders Day and Theology Days. The first of these looks at issues of ministry and mission in a context of worship and sharing our stories as church leaders. Theology Days provide an opportunity to talk together in a relaxed and safe environment on underlying theological topics. More recently we have introduced elements of personal retreat and worship leadership training. All this is to help you lead your church. If you want to be involved in any of this, please look at our current programme click here or get in touch with Stephen Ibbotson.

Mainstream NE first began to meet every two or three months during 2006.  We have met for mutual encouragement, input from a speaker and prayer, originally at New Life Baptist Church in Northallerton, North Yorkshire, with people coming from all over the North East.  However, as the area is quite large (from Northumberland to York) and Northallerton is quite a long way south for many, we have recently begun to meet at Bethany Christian Centre in Houghton-le-Spring to make it easier for others to come. For details of meetings, please do contact us - we would very much like to hear from anyone who would be interested in more
information.

The south-west covers a wide geographical area, so we aim to encourage local clusters of leaders and offer some extra events open to the whole region. Church leaders in the area keen to establish or develop local groups... please speak to me! I am more than happy to link you up with others for mutual encouragement and resourcing.
