Venue
It’s exciting to be able to invite you to our first Europe wide conference and church planting celebration in 7 years. City to City has been a home for a generation of church planters across Europe; a place of connection, inspiration, and strength as we figured out how to plant gospel centred churches in our cities. And nothing has changed! We want to continue to be a source of care, friendship, wisdom, and life for church planters and missional pioneers past, present and future. Despite every challenge, church planting can be a joy when it is done in step with Jesus and in fellowship with others. Please join us in Budapest to share in the joy of life on mission with Jesus and his church. We have a great line up, with outstanding biblical, missional content. See you there I hope.
