The RESTORE conference will be looking at an understanding of God gleaned from Scripture which shapes our call as Christians – the work of God in restoring humanity taken up by the church. 

During the two day conference we will be covering such things as the solicitude of God and how this is to be taken up in our own lives, the wonder of creation and how to live well within the created order, and the practice of presence with God and with people. 

Scripture will serve as a foundation out of which these themes are gleaned.
