In light of our convention theme ‘Human’ we’ll be thinking together about what it means to be human in light of the truth that God has both made us and saved us.

Each morning we’ll be meeting for our seminar track to get stuck into this topic, and to understand better what a privilege and responsibility our humanness is.
