Bite Size Conversations

From 9 April to 8 May 2024, by Zoom on a range of children's ministry leadership topics over lunch or a cuppa.

Our Bite Size conversations are the perfect place to dig into a range of children's ministry leadership topics, over lunch or a cuppa. We'll be gathering on Zoom in April and May, and would love you to join us.

Each 1 hour Zoom will include a short Discipleship Pathway video, a reflection and open discussion about how to lead well in this space. Join us for one, or all! These Bite size conversations are free, and open to everyone to dip into. BYO cuppa.

Sign up to get the zoom link (it will be the same for each one), and we look forward to connecting up soon.

Strandz is the hub of Children + Families ministry in the Anglican Dioceses of New Zealand. 

We encourage, equip, resource, train and cheer on those
​working in this important ministry.

Our prayer is for all Anglican Dioceses, parishes, mission units and churches to be welcoming, intergenerational communities of faith, where children encounter God and find a place to belong.
