Growing Faith: Growing Confidence

The annual Growing Faith Conference is for everyone who wants to put children and young people even closer to the heart of all we do in church, home and school - especially where those spheres overlap.

This year's conference will be at the church of St Martin in the Bullring, Birmingham on 24th June, 2026, 10.00 - 17.00.
(Coffee from 10.00, conference begins at 10.30)

An inspiring and participative programme will have a strong emphasis on the voice and agency of young people. It will include young people from Growing Faith Hub teams and elsewhere leading worship and sharing their lived experience. We're very excited that our keynote speaker is Dave Boden from Grace Foundation. Dave will help us explore his fascinating and informative work on Gen Alpha.

There will be the chance to catch up with the cutting edge 2026 Growing Faith research into music and faith and structured opportunities to hear and reflect on the ongoing discoveries of others working in the home/church/school intersections: members of the Hubs teams, Poverty & Disadvantage Network, Chaplaincy Network, Music Network, Strategic Leaders' Programme delegates, fellow researchers and others who are taking their first steps in the Growing Faith movement or who have local or strategic responsibility for children and young people. You can expect a day that's informative and transformative, fun and thought-provoking, friendly yet challenging.
