Pull up a chair. The Table is a gathering for church leaders across Atlantic Canada to connect, imagine, and be equipped for ministry that matters. This isn’t just another conference—it’s a conversation. A space to wrestle with what could be, to share tools and insight, and to build something lasting in your local context. Whether we’re talking about reaching the unchurched, building a culture of prayer, or shaping relevant preaching, one thing stays the same: we believe that when leaders gather around the table, the future gets clearer.
