From Thursday 15th to Sunday 18th February we held our Diocese of York LYCiG Course at The Hayes Conference Centre, Swanwick, Alfreton, Derbyshire. 

The day was a huge success, seeing the attendence of more than 130 delegates from all areas of the Diocese of York, plus six members of our own LyCiG team who were involved in preparation, teaching & leading the course.

What is LyCiG?

The core element of the Leading your Church into Growth programme is a three or four day course for teaching, inspiring and equipping ordained and lay leaders. This highly popular course is specifically designed for clergy and lay leaders from across different traditions and denominations who are looking for help and encouragement in leading their churches into growth.

Our courses takes the form of an open seminar with interactive talks, practical exercises, workshops and time and space for personal reflection. Times of informal conversation provide opportunities for LyCiG team members to answer questions and to explore the profile of individual churches.
