Join Gavin and Jon Wright, Operations Manager at Frinton Free Church, as they reflect on their experience at the recent UCAN National Conference. In this episode, they share highlights from the main teaching sessions, personal takeaways, and the encouragement they found in gathering with fellow church administrators and managers from across the UK.

It was a real joy to connect with others in similar roles, share stories, and be reminded of the value and impact of church administration. Whether you attended the conference or not, this conversation offers insight, inspiration, and a glimpse into the heart behind church administration.

Gavin was thrilled to recently speak with Pelé Ling, Communications and Creative Director at All Souls, Langham Place.

Listen in as Pelé talks about relaunching free English classes at their church a few years ago and shares the success this rebranding has had in creating opportunities to tell people about Jesus. (He also talked about their Christmas plans which Gavin LOVED- only 23 weeks to go!!)

Christian Safeguarding Services' Paul Harrison joins Gavin to talk through 5 common challenges with safeguarding in churches:

1. Poor governance

2. Low standards

3. Conflicts of interest

4. Not raising low level concerns

5. Lack of professional curiosity

We absolutely loved learning from Paul and are so grateful for his time and expertise. This is definitely an hour well spent!
