Our 2003 conference was held at the Morley Retreat and Conference Centre. The theme for the conference was "Founded on Rock". This powerpoint slide series (3 MB) was used as a reflection at the conference and may give inspiration to others. It goes well with the song 'What a wonderful world'.

Our 2003 conference was held in a historic setting of Saint Mark's College with superb facilities. The usual fayre of training, fellowship, fun and worship was on offer. The theme for the conference was "Creativity".

The title for this year's training conference was "Aiming High, Digging Deep". A full report will follow shortly.

Conference 2001 was held at Cloverley Hall Conference Centre, near Whitchurch, Shropshire. The hall was a rambling ex-Victorian school complete with tower and spiral staircase leading to some of the bedrooms. Harry Potter would have felt at home amongst its oak panelled rooms altough in our case the magic (if that's the right word) was to be found in the company, the memories, the learning and the worship, the latter being confined not only to our Sunday morning service.

The theme for the conference was Remember, Remember and our activities covered topics such as Hallowe'en, All Souls Day, Bonfire Night, Remembrance Day and other opportunities to reflect on the past.

Despite all this looking back at the past, there seemed to be a definite feeling that AMSAG is moving to a more dynamic and exciting future.
