Join in at Week 1 of Keswick Convention 2024
We are thankful to have the fantastic team from Count Everyone In joining us once again for Week 1 of the Convention from 13th to 19th July.
Count Everyone In exists to inspire and equip God’s church to be welcoming and accessible to all, especially those who are so often marginalised by society and even the church because of learning disability.
The week in Keswick will be focused on Bible teaching through fun activities and interactive learning that everyone can join in with. You can come to every session or just a few, all are welcome to come along and say hello!
How will the sessions be structured during the week?
- Morning seminar: 9:30 – 10:30am
- Main session: 11:15am – 1:00pm
- Afternoon workshop: 2:30 – 4:00pm
If you would like to join the group at Convention, there is no need to register, just come along! If you would like to know some more or introduce yourself, you can contact the team here.

The Bible is True!
We will be looking at 1 Corinthians 15:1-2 and 12-17. If we believe that the Bible is true, then we can believe everything written in it. We can believe and trust that Jesus was a real man, who lived a real life, who died a real death and was raised back to life in a real resurrection.
Jesus’ Resurrection
We will be looking at Jesus’ death and resurrection: what happened, why did it happen, and what does it mean for us?
The Hope We Have!
We will compare Jesus’ resurrection (and therefore our future resurrection) with other resurrection stories in the Bible (Lazarus & Jairus’ daughter).
The Great Commission: Global Mission
While we wait for our resurrection, we are called to live out the mission Jesus gave us (Matthew 28:19-20). We will be looking at ‘famous’ missionaries and global missions.
The Great Commission: Local Mission
We will be looking at examples from the early church as they lived out the great commission locally. We want to encourage and equip our guests with practical ways in which they can live out the great commission in their own communities, families, and churches.
Afternoon Workshop
Tuesday | 2:30-4:00pm | PF G.02
We will be looking at some of the ‘unbelievable’ stories in the Bible through creative means (dance, drama, craft) – if we believe that the Bible is true, then what can we learn from some of these stories?
