Together - SJC Church Weekend Away
3 - 5 July 2026
I’m so excited to invite you to our Weekend Away — a chance for us to gather as one church family, across ages, stages, and services. Together, we’ll explore what it looks like to live Spirit-filled, Christ-centred lives in the everyday rhythms of home, work, and community, as we listen for how God continues to shape us around our vision: we long to see our lives and our city transformed by the love of Jesus. Paul Dever
Please book your tickets on ChurchSuite
We are pleased to be joined for the weekend by John and Anne Coles. They led New Wine for 13 years, overseeing its expansion from a summer festival to a network of churches which is dedicated to renewing local churches through the power of the Holy Spirit.
The SJC weekend away is a great opportunity to be together. As we have fun together, learn together, eat together, swim together and relax together our aim is that we will be even more united and even more together with each other and God!
Location:

Accommodation options:
Bring your own tents and caravans or sleep in one of the on site cabins or bell tents. If you select cabin or bell tent please give the names of anyone you want to share with. We will be in touch to confirm details.
Day Tickets:
Whilst we would love everyone to stay, we recognise that won't be possible for everyone. We want the whole church to attend, so there are non-residential tickets available as well if you can't stay on site.
Everyone invited:
We are very keen to make this weekend accessible to everyone, so we’ve created a range of price options and don’t want finances to be a barrier for anyone. If cost is a concern, please do have a confidential conversation with Paul or Andi — we would love to help make it possible for you to join us.
