A friend recommended the Keswick Convention to me in 2018, and the following year I attended for the first time. Being in the heart of the Lakes, hearing God’s word through rich bible-centred teaching, amazing sung worship and spending time in God’s creation (especially climbing mountains) is now the highlight of my year.
I was an Infant Teacher for 16 years when the Lord clearly signposted me to this role at Keswick Ministries. Having moved 350 miles from home I am trusting in him wholeheartedly. My hope and prayer is to help to love and serve the volunteers who, put quite simply, make the Convention possible.
I love these verses from Psalm 28. My heart certainly does leap for joy when worshipping God through sung worship in the main tent at the Convention with thousands of other Christians, All in One Christ Jesus. It feels like God is right there with you. It is honestly such a privilege to work for this charity.
“The Lord is my strength and my shield
My heart trusts in him and he helps me
My heart leaps for joy and with my song I praise him.” (Psalm 28:7)
