The Church Development Programme 2025 is four sessions in bite-size 2 hour slots that cover most of church life. It is designed to help Churches and make things a bit easier. Synod Officers will be leading sessions and there will be plenty of time for questions.

This is open to ANYONE who is involved in their church, or if they want to be! Each slot (A, B, C or D) will be repeated 3 times in different locations around the Synod. Please contact Emma trainingofficer@urcmerseysynod.org.uk if you want to know more.
