Every year, The Moody Church equips its leaders with a conference dedicated to encouraging their growth as shepherds of our people. Our goal is that the Lord grants us a fresh vision for what authentic community looks like, so we can more effectively fulfill our promise that:

“The Moody Church is a trusted place where anyone can connect with God and others.”

Leadership: Mark Pirrie
