Back for our third year, the United Reformed Church Synod of Scotland and Presbytery of Glasgow Church of Scotland are proud to present RechargePLUS! Scotland’s Intergenerational Ministry Conference.

Welcome to RechargePLUS! Join us at The Renfield Training and Conference Centre Glasgow and be inspired, encouraged, refreshed and recharged in your ministry . Connect with like-minded individuals, attend insightful workshops, and hear from inspiring speakers.

Our guest speaker is well known Christian author, Bob Hartman. Bob has been a professional storyteller for over 30 years! He has written over 100 books, for both children and adults, many of them retellings of Bible passages and stories.

There will be 8 workshops for you to choose from; a quiet space for you to reflect in; worship; and resources available to purchase.

This event is for anyone within ministry, paid or volunteer and is open to any denomination.
