Worship team leaders and church musicians from the New Ground family of churches are invited to join us for an amazing day of learning and growing together. We will gather for a day of skill-building workshops taught by fellow worship leaders and church musicians, as well as a songwriting intensive led by worship leader, songwriter, and producer, Richard James Butt.
