Event Hosting Inquiry for Church and City Transformation

Above  Pic: Salvation appeal at gospel crusade, Kenya Aug 2024. 

We often get asked to come to a pastors church, event or country because they see the work that we are doing. That is nice, but they usually lack details (often they lack real intent too)  so we are setting out a few things that will help you to make a clear and God inspired expression of interest in Beautiful Feet Task Force ministry. (BFTF)

We hope this message finds you well. We are thankful for the many who have expressed interest in having a BFTF team in their church, denomination or city over recent times. 

We are seeking expressions of interest from Christian leaders who may be willing and able to host Howard Sands and or a BFTF team for one or more of the following significant events in your city or region:

• City-Wide Leaders Unity Conference. An event designed for a minimum of 200 leaders focused on fostering unity and equipping leaders to work together for greater Kingdom Impact.  
• City-Wide Leaders Training Seminar:, with essential knowledge and skills for ministry leadership and community impact.
• Combined Churches City-Wide Outdoor Mass Crusade for Salvation and Healing:            A large-scale outreach with a minimum attendance of 2,000 people, aimed at bringing together churches across your city for a powerful time of salvation, healing, and transformation leading to growth.

To ensure the effectiveness and impact of these initiatives, please note the minimum attendance requirements: at least 200 leaders for the conference or seminar, and at least 2,000 attendees for the outdoor mass crusade. Any amount above that is OK, We just need to meet these minimums for efficiency reasons. 

We kindly invite you to consider which of these events your city or church network would be interested in hosting, and to indicate your preference by private mail after checking the details of this blog

How Do We Adapt? 

#wheretonow 

The world has changed - may be permanently - but has the church changed? 

Does the church need to change, or does it need to adapt?

Are we getting the message out to those that need to hear? 
Fear has gripped the world - but has it also gripped the church?

Jesus came to bring answers to life's most pressing questions, but does the of today have them? 

Where to Now? is asking important questions of influential Christian leaders around the world. 
Make sure you sign up at the link below to get your free invitation zoom link to join us discussing these important issues for this day. 

This maybe the most life transforming hour of your life.

Pastor Richard Kerridge, Perth, Australia. 

Richard and his wife, Dianne, have been in full-time ministry since pioneering a Christian Fellowship Centre in Albury/Wodonga in1980 although Richard had begun his working career as a high school teacher.  They were pastors of that church for ten years. They also pioneered churches in Culcairn (NSW) and Liberty Christian Church in Melbourne.  In 1987 they went into Africa for the first time. This visit changed their attitude to missions and commenced a connection with Africa that has continued to this day. Richard has ministered extensively to Christians leaders in many nations in Africa and Asia. 

For 10 years Richard served as the national chairman of his denomination, ACM (Associated Christian Ministries).

At the beginning of 2015 the whole family moved to Perth. This major move has been part of a transition from the responsibilities of pastoring a local church to being more fully able to give himself to ministering within the wider body of Christ both in Australia and overseas.

Richard is at present:

• The director of Liberty World Missions Ltd. 

• Advisor to the Executive of ACM. 

• The International Chairman of ACMI (Associated Christian Ministers International) - a network of pastors throughout Africa and Asia.

• The principal of Liberty Bible College which provides courses and advice for hundreds of pastors in Africa.

• The director of Into Africa Inc - a ministry that send teams, provides teaching and undertakes humanitarian projects in Africa. 

• Co-founder and Director of Africa Business Community which is a micro-business ministry that sets up the poor in small business in Eastern Africa.

• Church consultant, mentor and supervisor.

• Part-time lecturer at Aplhacrucis College in Perth.

• Speaker at various churches within Perth - from time to time.

He believes that people who grow in their knowledge of who God is and who they are, are most likely to recognise their purpose for living and positively to affect the lives of those around them. 

He has a heart for unity within the body of Christ, he was a Melbourne representative on the advisory board of One Heart – a network committed to the unity and mission of the Church in each community, town and city in the nation.
