2025 Borderlands Men’s Christian Conference

A conference for men in the Borders and North England, exploring practical ways to follow Jesus in our communities and work, whether you go to church or not. Our 2025 theme takes a very urban Bible verse, Jeremiah 29:7, and paraphrases it for those of us living in rural communities.

“Seek the welfare of the place where I have sent you”.
