In 2010, the annual “Grow & Go” training weekend 
takes the theme of ‘being a mission-shaped church’. 
If God’s purpose of redeeming and renewing the world 
brought the Christian church to birth, what does it mean 
for mission to be at the heart of who we are and what 
we do as the people of God?Our fourth annual “Grow & Go” Weekend offers nine in-depth learning streams. It’s an enriching time
of learning, worship and conversation with people from across SA. Choose one learning stream for 
the weekend. Bring a team from your church and send each person to a different topic - then meet 
afterwards to share your learnings. You will go away with new insights, ideas, resources and inspiration.
