How can my church and I get involved?

If you would like to run a cafechurch at your local Costa Coffee or another venue first speak with your church leaders and share the cafechurch vision. (You can download the PowerPoint slide below to help you do this)

Think & Pray. Then, share the concept with people in your church, who you feel could become a cafechurch team. Here is a PowerPoint slide to help you share the cafechurch vision with your church.

Then...

Follow the 3 step plan...

1. Register Online

   The aim of our training days is to envision you to run a cafechurch. Through our practical workshop and seminars we cover the following:
   
   • a biblical perspective of cafechurch

   • experiencing cafechurch for yourself
   When attending a training day, you will receive a Resources Pack, share ideas and network with others. Complimentary refreshments are usually provided by Costa Coffee.
