It’s a new chapter for the Keswick Convention, as for the first time ever, the main marquee will be based at the former Pencil Factory site. We’ll see you there!
Join us as look to God to renew our attitude of gratitude. As we take a fresh look at all God has done for us in Jesus Christ, we'll be inspired and equipped to love and live for Christ. The theme of Keswick Convention 2020, Grateful, complements Longing, the 2019 theme. Longing wants a deeper understanding of the riches we have in Christ; Longing says “Your kingdom come”. But it is possible for Longing to tip over into self-pity or discontentment. So Grateful highlights the right response to a generous God. However being grateful doesn’t come naturally. How many times do children need to be told to “Say ‘Thank you’”! Paul identifies this as a fundamental human problem: “though they knew God, they did not honour him as God or give thanks to him” (Rom. 1:21). As Christians, we are called to be grateful. It is the heart of our spiritual lives. When we are grateful, responding to God as we should, we recognise how generous He is, how good He is, how much we owe to Him. We cannot whine, we cannot be proud, we cannot be self-pitying, we cannot be entitled, thinking we deserve better. But without it, our discipleship withers and dies. Generosity is stifled, because it’s mine; love and service become joyless as we feel like a martyr. So we pray at the 2020 Convention that the Lord will renew our attitude of gratitude; that, as we take a fresh look at all God has done for us in Jesus Christ, we will be inspired and equipped to be more Christlike. For Jesus Christ modelled gratitude to His heavenly Father (Matthew 15:36; John 11:41). |

The Keswick Convention is the main event organised annually by Keswick Ministries and has been taking place since 1875. It offers something for everyone – life-changing Bible teaching, uplifting worship and great fellowship combined with the chance to relax and enjoy a holiday in the wonderful setting of the Lake District in the UK.
The great attraction of the Keswick Convention is that the programme not only offers superb Bible teaching from a team of acclaimed international speakers - but also gives you the flexibility to enjoy time off with family and friends to explore the beautiful Lakes and the bustling market town of Keswick itself. If you want to climb a mountain, go sailing or simply sit in Fitz Park watching the world go by – it’s up to you.
And uniquely, there is no need to register, or pay a fee to attend the Convention! Just book your accommodation and turn up!
