Glory Conference 2021 – Online
GLORY CONFERENCE is an annual conference hosted by Leadway Church and provides a platform for Christians from all denominations to get inspired and challenged to live up to their full potentials and express God’s glory,
The theme of this year’s conference is “Desiring His Glory” – Exodus 33:18. This is based on the need to desire more of God and His Glory in our lives and never become too complacent. Even though Moses had experienced and seen God’s miraculous power through the plagues in Egypt and in the wilderness, he was still thirsty for more of God, His Glory.

CCL: Raising the next generation – Live-streamed
Community isn’t something static; it stretches through time, as culture is passed from one generation to another. The Bible has many commands about ensuring that its truth is passed on to the next generation. Yet as simple as this command is, the practice of raising up children and new leaders can cause great anxiety.
Hear Paul Dudley, Chaplain at Shore School, and Mark Earngey, Head of Church History at Moore College, speak about how we might work to raise the next generation in the Lord at this live-streamed event.
