Baptist Assembly 2019
Baptist Assembly 2019:
Graham Kendrick, Harry and Chris headline BMS Saturday sessions
Comedy, music, worship and mission at the Baptist Assembly 2019.
Telford, land of dreams! At least it will be on the weekend of 18 and 19 May 2019, when the BUGB BMS World Mission Baptist Assembly comes to town. The Baptist Assembly 2019 is promising to be one of the best ever – not least because of the amazing line-up offered by BMS on Saturday 18 May.
Saturday at the Baptist Assembly is going to be huge!
Baptist Assembly 2019: the BMS line-up
Legendary worship leader, composer and songwriter Graham Kendrick will be there – leading worship and sharing songs along with his full band as part of BMS’ Saturday sessions, which is reason enough to make sure you get to Ludlow Suites 2 and 3 in the International Centre, Telford. But there’s more!
BMS has also invited the charming, talented and funny musical comedy duo Harry and Chris to be part of our sessions. Harry and Chris will be familiar to Catalyst Live 2018 audiences, as well as anyone who has seen the BMS Thank You video. Young, smart and fun, we’re sure they will be a highlight of your Assembly this year.
So do come along! Book your Baptist Assembly 2019 tickets today! Full weekend tickets cost £50 and it’s only £35 for Saturday day tickets (when all the big BMS stuff is happening). In addition to Graham and Harry and Chris, you will also get the chance to learn Disciple Making from Benjamin Francis , BMS Team Leader in India and founder of a massively successful church planting network. And there will be an opportunity to speak into BMS’ future strategy in some Tell Us What You Think sessions, each featuring contributions from Graham Kendrick or Harry and Chris. There will be a chance to ask us questions, give your opinion, see the brand new BMS harvest video and hear first-hand what God is doing around the world. So. Why wouldn’t you come to Telford (land of dreams)?
Saturday at the Baptist Assembly 2019 in Telford is going to be huge!
Saturday has been designated a ‘networking day’ at the Assembly, which means delegates will have the opportunity to take it easy, meet old friends, make new ones, and attend special seminars and events throughout the day. The networking day programme looks incredibly useful and strong, so Saturday in Telford is definitely a must! BMS sessions will be in Ludlow Suites two and three on the ground floor of the Telford International Centre, so do come and check them out! Details of each session are included below.
If you haven’t yet booked your tickets to this year’s Assembly, now is the time to do it. Come and be both entertained and inspired by great Christian content and stories of mission. Worship, listen and have your say with BMS, and join the whole Assembly for fellowship and fun!
Booking closes on 30 April, so don’t miss out!
