YBA Ministers’ Conference 2025

A message from the Regional Ministers

We are pleased to announce that bookings are now open to register for our 2025 Ministers’ Conference at Cober Hill on the beautiful east coast of Yorkshire, taking place from Monday, 29th September through to Wednesday, 1st October.

This year’s theme is Missional Acts: Insights from the early church to inspire and inform our present-day practise - with our guest speaker being Revd Dr Daniel McGinnis who is Principal of St Hild College and a great friend of the YBA.

Alongside his role with St Hild College, Daniel is Founder of the Leeds School of Theology, both based in Yorkshire, and he serves within the CofE as an ordained minister. Formerly a church planter, he is passionate about living at the intersection of Biblical studies, practical ministry and pioneering mission. He loves the book of Acts and the early church, having written a couple of books about this.

Our Ministers’ Conference is a key opportunity in the year for us all to connect together and be reminded of the bigger vision that God is calling us to - of making disciples by multiplying churches across Yorkshire. This is not something one church can do by themselves, but we can only do it together. Equally important alongside the ministry input is the opportunity to unwind, meet up with old friends and make new ones. Most of those who attended last year said it was “excellent” in their feedback forms with comments such as:

  • Thank you, felt very supported and encouraged by male and female peers and Regional Ministers.

  • Thank you for organising it, a good mix of input and hearing what others are doing.

  • Thank you for all the hard work, it’s always a blessing.

  • Thank you for welcoming me.

As sisters and brothers in covenant relationship, we only get this one opportunity a year to gather together for encouragement and support, which is why we want to ask that you do all that you can to join us.

So please will you sign up today and let us know that you are coming to Cober ‘25?

Go to the Information and Booking Page for further information and to secure your place with a deposit of £75.

We do hope that you will join us for this key event in the YBA calendar.

Nike, Graham, Alex and Leoné
