5-7 JUNE 2026 | PASCOE PARK, CHRISTCHURCH
This discipleship and leadership convention is for you.
This convention has been specifically designed for our church members in South New Zealand. You will be fed physically, spiritually and mentally with delicious food, genuine worship experiences, engaging plenaries, and a range of workshops. Join us for an enriching experience that will deepen your relationship with God and strengthen your ability to serve and thrive within your local church community.
One thing is clear in the world we’re living in — life isn’t slowing down, and the world doesn’t seem to be getting any more stable. Our lives are busy, the noise around us is constant, and it can sometimes feel overwhelming.
And yet, in the middle of all of this, Jesus’ call is still the same — to follow Him and to make disciples. But that raises an honest question:
How do we share our faith in a world that’s already so full of noise?
And isn’t sharing faith something that’s really just for pastors, evangelists, or the “professionals”?
At Anchored, we want to explore a simple but powerful reality: God calls all of us to share the hope we’ve found in Jesus — and He invites us to do it in ways that are natural, authentic, and part of everyday life.
Over the course of the weekend, we’ll have keynote messages, practical workshops, and conversations designed to encourage and equip you to live and share your faith where God has placed you.
If you’re involved in leadership in your church, if you’d like to be but feel unsure where to start, or if you’re a young person wanting to grow in your faith and influence — this weekend is for you.
Our prayer is that this will be a time to pause, reconnect with God’s mission, and allow Him to anchor us again in our calling to follow Jesus and share His hope with others.
