Kx City Reaching is holding its fourth Summit in October 2026.
Oct 12th-13th in Bristol at Hope Chapel, Hope Chapel Hill, Hotwells, Bristol BS8 4ND

Alternative summit in the Liverpool City Region on October 15th-16th at Life Church Bebington, 1a Old Chester Rd, Bebington, Wirral CH63 7LA.

Bring your team!

Each City Reaching location will ideally bring a team of 3-4 people (2-6 are probably the useful limits) to the event, to enable them to work together as they apply the inputs to their location, and plan for the future.

We would love to see each town or City Reaching team networking with those in business in their location for the sake of kingdom advancement. 

Men and women in business have specific skills that are key to building great City Reaching teams and delivering on our five priorities.

What is this year's event about?

The focus of this year’s City Reaching summit will be a comprehensive review and update of all 5 priorities including asking:

• How do we move from prayer meetings to a prayer movement?
• What will it take to move from being and doing the gospel, to being, doing and saying the gospel as we serve the city?
• How honest are we being about how our disciple making is going?
• Can we make church planting our primary saturation tool in reaching our towns and cities with the gospel?
• How do we partner with Christian business leaders in our town or city?
• How do we build an effective network?

There will also be updates on:

• Disciple-making strategies in view of our new Disciple Making Lab
• Church planting in view of our new training partner M4Europe.

The programme will be a mixture of inputs, Q and A, breakouts, feedback, peer learning, and future strategic planning.

The timings of each day will be

Day 1 10am-5pm

Day 2 9am-4pm

Cost per person £55. Subsidised places are available at £25 each, thanks to some generous donors. 

There will also be the option of free ongoing bi-monthly group coaching for any leaders who would like it.

I can’t wait to see you there!
