Christian Savings is pleased to announce our upcoming Governance Conference!

Those of us serving in governance roles need to be ready for the challenges ahead. This year’s speaker line-up is designed to inspire and equip you for both the joys and the complexities of church and charity leadership.

Join us for sessions that address the issues that matter most. You’ll hear from keynote speakers who are in touch with the realities of Christian governance, engage in interviews and interactive discussions and connect with a wide range of people who share your commitment to leading well.

We look forward to welcoming leaders, trustees, directors, officers and elders who are passionate about governing with excellence, and to seeing you there!
