Parenting for Faith: The Forge Gathering

10-12 November 2026

A residential gathering for anyone passionate about helping children and teenagers build lasting, deeply rooted faith

THE FORGE GATHERING IS A residential retreat hosted by the Parenting for Faith team for anyone who wants to help children and teenagers grow a deep and rooted faith that lasts. We have groups and teaching for church leaders and for children’s, youth and families’ leaders (both paid and voluntary). 

The next Forge Gathering will be at Cloverley Hall, Shropshire, SY13 4PH.

The Forge Gathering provides time to:

  • Worship and reflect
  • Hear about new developments in children’s, youth and families work
  • Learn from each other
  • Have fun together!

It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet others working in the same field as you, and you’ll leave with loads of contacts and some great new friends!
